    Took my elderly mother here for lunch. Requested and waited for a table with ambiance. Food was excellent and very reasonable. Fried calamari, veal marsale, ravioli with veal and a tomato cream sauce, and a special squash ravioli. All very tasty, served hot and very well priced. The dining room is lovely and sophisticated, a rarity nowadays. No one in jeans or baseball hats. Our waiter was lovely

    Everyone found a dish to their liking on the menu. At our table we enjoyed the veal, fish, and pasta. Service was excellent.

    It is a great restaurant from top to bottom. Wonderful appetizers through main entree through desert. They could update the glasses of wine choices. Also they should slow down the serving between courses by about 5 to 10 minutes.

    We enjoyed a wonderful anniversary dinner at Dante Ristorante. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was outstanding--attentive; but not intrusive. Everyone--from the chef to the service staff--went out of their way to make this a memorable evening for us. I highly recommend this restaurant for any special occasion; or just to have a fabulous lunch or dinner out!

    Food was great, seems the restaurant was short staffed. Only one waiter for the entire room. Impacted the experience with no fault to the waiter. Never thought I would have to ask next time to verify if they have enough waiters before we return.

    My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal (the lasagna is THE BEST). It was her first time to dine at Dante-- pretty sure she'll most definitely return! Many thanks to our waiter for his friendliness and attentiveness.
