    We were early but Dante found a table for us on a busy night. The food was excellent and the service was pleasant and timely.

    Dante reminded me of the food I ate when I was in Italy. Jessica was a fantastic server and was very helpful with the wine selection. We went during happy hour, which made it affordable (half off). It is pricey, otherwise. We will return for dinner, however, because it was a great experience.

    Celebrating a birthday with six other people-we very much enjoyed the appetizer cheese board with pickled vegetables ,sheep’s milk cheese and tenderloin cured thin sliced beef. For the table we ordered three pizzas the squid ink pasta and the beet and kale side dish our waiter helped us choose our wine a bottle of red and one of white. Excellent service and attention. Not an inexpensive experience but a delicious and enjoyable time.

    Dear Dante Team, I hope this message finds you well. My family and I have been loyal guests at Dante for years, and our past experiences have always been exceptional, which is why I wanted to reach out following our recent visit. I hope that sharing this feedback will support the high standards we’ve come to love and appreciate at Dante. When we arrived a few minutes early for our reservation, we noticed a shift in the usual warm welcome. The hostess team appeared preoccupied with personal conversations, which made us feel like an afterthought rather than the welcomed guests we’ve come to expect. After being seated, this initial impression seemed to set the tone for an evening that, unfortunately, felt out of sync. Our waiter, who didn’t greet us initially, seemed disconnected, leaving us waiting without much engagement. The drinks we usually enjoy were unavailable, and throughout the meal, our waiter remained distant, not checking on us during dinner. Dirty dishes from our appetizer were left on the table, and we had to request boxes and the check amid the clutter, which detracted from the ambiance and service level Dante has always maintained. Even the food, which has always been outstanding, seemed to miss the mark. The pizza had a wet center, and the pasta, usually flawless, felt different from the typical Dante quality we cherish. Overall, the dining experience felt noticeably different, almost as if there has been a change in management or standards. We also miss the attentive team member who consistently ensured the dining room ran smoothly, as his presence added to the warmth and professionalism we associate with Dante. I wanted to bring this to your attention because we know and love the true Dante experience, and we would love to see it restored. Thank you for taking the time to read this message, and we look forward to our next visit, confident that Dante will continue to be the remarkable restaurant we hold in such high regard.

    It was super busy tonight, but everything was still perfection! Loved the ricotta appetizer. The Margherita pizza is so perfect at Dante that it has ruined my ability to order it anywhere else. Delicious!

    We celebrated my birthday with dinner at Dante. Outstanding beef carpaccio appetizer, smoked carrots and entrees including pizza and scallops. Topped off by 2 amazing deserts, not to mention the 1/2 price bottle of wine on Sunday’s. And top notch service!
