    Charming old restaurant with delicious salads and Appetizers and very good service. The entree pasta special was rigatoni bolognese and we didn’t love that —sauce a bit runny and not the flavor we were hoping for but the linguini vongole was excellent. Decor needs updating and seating for 2 was cramped and back to back with chairs from other tables.

    My wife and I had a very pleasant dinner at Dante. The house wine was very good, our food was well prepared and flavorful, and our waiter was quite attentive. We are looking forward to going back when the weather is warmer and we can enjoy the outside dining.

    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
