The food quality is outstanding. The simple Pita bread melts in your mouth! I fell in love with the Moussaka. We had the chef selection which delivered a variety of dishes including desserts. Great value and a Greek culinary adventure. Great wines and decor.

We haven't had such an amazing experience before, the ambience in Danté took you to another place, it was elegant, beautiful and comfortable the staff were attentive to our needs without being intrusive. The high quality of the food was beautifully presented and surprisingly very affordable. We are looking forward to experiencing the up coming new menu.
