    Ambience is amazing the way the whole restaurant layout has been done is next to none. Service was 10/10 and the food is on the pricy side but worth it. Will be coming back again to try the different options such as the chefs special menu or the sushi. Overall experience was amazing.

    Amazing and attentive service at Danté. My party and I loved the atmosphere there and felt welcome from the moment we walked in until we left. The table service was impeccable and our waiter and bartender were extremely friendly the entire time (forgive me I forgot their names but they know who they were) Highly recommend this place for others. Super worth the price and the dishes were phenomenal. Drinks are on another level. Will be back for sure!
