Wonderful, attentive service and top-quality food across the board.
Oysters first — magnificent. The fish was excellent, the steak outstanding, the soup delightful, and the mushroom risotto cooked to perfection.
We dined as a family of four, with our two daughters. The quality and balance of the dishes stood out — superb produce, very much in the vein of European ingredients and cooking.
The interior is equally lovely. Booking can be a challenge — we were fortunate walk-ins. Thank you for keeping a table for the unplanned; it was much appreciated.

I love this place! The cocktail menu is fabulous. I got a Negroni Bianco. So good. My group was eating at 10:30 PM so ate light and were impressed by the numerous options that wouldn’t weigh you down before bedtime. I had a delicious salad with arugula and smoked trout. My vegetarian daughter had a cauliflower dish along with some grilled pumpkin. Another had a burrata appetizer and one ordered the cheeseburger. That cheeseburger was more than she could consume.
All of the cocktails were well balanced. One was enough. I’ll be back. Great vibe! Ram, our waiter, was terrific and the staff worked well as a team.

Dante is one of those places that truly captures the magic of New York dining — stylish but relaxed, lively yet intimate. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the hum of good energy, the clink of glasses, and that unmistakable Italian warmth.
The cocktails are perfection — balanced, creative, and beautifully presented. (Their Negroni variations are a must-try!) The food is equally impressive: simple, fresh ingredients elevated with care. I especially loved the burrata and pasta — every bite felt thoughtfully prepared.
Service was attentive without being intrusive, and the team made the experience feel genuinely personal. Whether you’re stopping by for an afternoon spritz, a date night, or brunch with friends, Dante never disappoints.
A true NYC classic that lives up to the hype — timeless, vibrant, and always worth a visit.

Storied little pub in the West Village.
Wonderfully designed interior. Rustic, inviting, and welcoming.
Went by myself to try a martini during their martini hour.
Alive enough to have fun but quiet enough to have a conversation with friends. I would have loved to have come by with friends!

✨ Dante West Village — Truly Exceptional Every Time ✨
Dante’s West Village is one of those rare places that never disappoints. From the moment you walk in, you’re treated like family — and that warmth is what sets them apart. The food is flawless, every dish crafted with care and bursting with flavor. Their drinks? Absolute perfection — creative, balanced, and some of the best cocktails you’ll ever have.
But what truly makes Dante unforgettable are the people. The staff aren’t just attentive; they’re genuinely kind, welcoming, and passionate about what they do. That combination of world-class food, spectacular drinks, and an incredible team makes every reservation here remarkable. Let me say that again, the incredible team here makes it remarkable.
It’s not just a meal — it’s an experience that leaves you saying, “Wow, when can I come back?” If you haven’t been yet, trust me: you need to go. It’s a whole Vibe ✨✨

Beautiful and cozy restaurant, great hospitality, staff were friendly, professional and very stylish.
Food and drink presentation was amazing! This place is known for their signature martinis and the server garnished the dirty martini in front of us with pure class and professionalism! Amazing experience.

Midday indulgence done right!
The food was absolutely exceptional ! From the insanely juicy burger to the perfectly cooked steak topped with vibrant chimichurri (seriously, flavor heaven). Everything looked as good as it tasted, and since it wasn’t crazy busy, we got to just sip, savor, and soak in the chill West Village vibe.

Went on a Sunday without a reservation and had to wait around 45 minutes—it gets packed. We finally got an outdoor table, a bit hot but still nice. Drinks (matcha latte + Americano) were disappointing, but the food made up for it. The service was a little weak, probably because it was so busy. Definitely worth trying at least once!

An adorable Italian cafe with great vibes, great cocktails and tasty food. I’d high recommend the drinks! They are hand crafted, with fresh ingredients and there are so many to choose from! A wonderful experience all around!

Dante is my go-to spot to take friends for drinks when they’re visiting New York for a classic New Yorker cocktail experience. The Grasshopper cocktail is really good – chocolatey, minty, and perfect for pre-gaming. The martinis are cute and beautifully presented. The food, however, isn’t the best. I’ve eaten there twice and wouldn’t go back for the food, it can be better. However, this is definitely a place that’s better for drinks than for dining.
