" Wandered into Dante’s based on a friend's recommendation. I was looking for a cozy yet elegant place to celebrate an anniversary, and this place did not disappoint! The pasta was all freshly made, and it showed in both texture and taste. However, the highlight was the staff—they were incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent wine pairings. My only complaint would be the portion sizes; I was hoping for a bit more food on my plate. Overall, absolutely fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a friendly smile. The warm ambiance set the perfect tone for our dinner. I ordered the Gnocchi Sorrentina, and it was out of this world! Cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The waiter was attentive but not overly intrusive. We felt welcomed and relaxed throughout our meal. Highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Italian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Dante's highly recommended and left satisfied but not wowed. The food was okay but a bit overpriced for what it was. I had the lasagna, which was decent but didn't have that homemade feel I was expecting. I will say the drinks were fantastic, and the ambiance was lovely. I just wish the food had lived up to the hype. Maybe I’ll give it another chance and try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Dante’s with my partner for a special night out, and it was truly delightful. The restaurant has a rustic Italian atmosphere that transports you straight to Italy. We started with the bruschetta, followed by the seafood risotto. Both dishes had exceptional taste. The risotto was creamy and rich in flavor. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow during peak hours, but the food made up for it. Definitely coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a wonderful experience at Dante’s. The fresh pasta was a treat, and the friendliness of the staff made the evening extra special. The owner Piero was charming and took the time to explain dishes and wine pairings. I had the seafood linguine, which was incredibly flavorful, and my partner had the tortellini, both of which were generous in portion. I highly recommend the tiramisu as well; it was divine! We will definitely be back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have tried Dante’s several times, and each experience is better than the last. The staff knows how to make guests feel special and taken care of. For dinner, I had the osso buco paired with a lovely red wine suggested by the owner, Piero—a truly wonderful recommendation! The dish was tender and flavorful, and the portion was generous. While it might seem a bit on the pricey side, the quality of the food and the entire experience make it worthwhile. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates authentic Italian fare!
