    I have written several reviews of Dante and I end up repeating myself. Why? Because everything about this restaurant is exceptional. It never disappoints. Excellent cuisine. Gracious servers. Beautiful surroundings.

    The prosciutto wrapped salmon was delicious! The crab tower appetizer is a must. My husband had the fish special which he loved. Giuseppe is a wonderful chef!

    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.
