So let me just tell you this was above and beyond. I have been to several ‘tasting menu' restaurants in life and this may have surpassed my all time favorite in Denver! Our waitress was Kiera and she was an absolute blast. She was friendly and knowledgeable and made our dinner an experience. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and my friend is a vegan ... not an eye was batted. Both of us enjoyed our own tasting menu catered to our needs! I cannot say enough good things about this because I have been to many places that force you to get the same menu! It was my very first time eating out after the diagnosis and let me tell you ... I am not worried about bit because all the food I was served was delicious ?

I made reservations to celebrate my birthday here and the staff was very accommodating. I had to stay within a certain amount of people for my reservation and at the last minute I had to make an adjustment that put me outside of that limitation. The staff/management was very understanding and helpful, which was a huge relief for me. When we arrived everyone was very kind and patient as some of my guests were late. They were also very attentive to my dietary restrictions as a vegan. I ordered 3 dishes including the vegan entree. The vegan entree (miso eggplant) didn’t taste that good to me and I was reluctant to say anything, but I’m glad I did. Robin our server asked what I didn’t like about it and used the feedback to have them remake the dish with custom adjustments for taste. It was so much tastier when they brought it back out and I was extremely grateful for the overall care and consideration. She took pictures of our dinner party and they served me a vegan desert with a candle to celebrate my birthday. This was a great experience for me and my guests and I am glad I chose this restaurant to celebrate. The customer service from top to bottom was superb.

This was recommended to me and so next time we were in town for a Cavs game we went early and snagged a seat at the bar. The bartender was extremely attentive, friendly, helpful, and just all around fun - he made the night! The wine selection is phenomenal. The food was outstanding. Cannot wait to come back, it's too bad we won't ever try any other place in Cleveland because how could we ever not eat here?! The bread and hummus is amazing, we had the calamari, a tasting portion of the carbonara (tasting portion is big!), and the monkfish, which we are still telling everyone about. We ordered a dessert that had ice cream on it which was the only thing we didn't go crazy over, but the ice cream itself was the star.

Had the 5 course tasting menu with wines and it was phenomenal. Highly recommend going this route if you visit. Our menu for the evening included poached scallops, a type of ravioli with shaved veal prosciutto, mackerel, duck breast, and tres leches.

The monk fish was outstanding enjoyed along with a tasting of the carbonara witch was all world - wife enjoyed the surf and turf very much - all around one of the better meals we have had in quite a while. Service was on point as well. Look forward to next visit.

For our party of six, some dishes were excellent (risotto, branzino), others were mediocre (polenta, mushroom spaghetti). Our server's attentiveness was a bit erratic, and he spent too much time going over the tasting menu, only to tell us it is designed for an entire dining party. We are six people with very different food interests, so we weren't interested in group tasting.

Completely underwhelming, just ok food wise. For the price and the reputation this was in my opinion a waste of money unfortunately. Service was fine. Was really expecting a lot more from this place.

Ordered two shots of tequila under Casamigos and they charged me $110. This place is deceiving and they took full advantage. Do not recommend.
Unbelievable. High end beautifully done building. Excellent layout with a bar and two separate eating areas. Service is very personal and prompt. The food....AMAZING. We had crab cakes and the cheese polenta dish for appetizers. Pasta and eggplant for main dishes. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Valet parking is available. Overall a top notch experience. We will be back!

We had a wonderful meal here before a show at Playhouse Square. The server was attentive and eager to get us out in time. We did the tasting menu with wine pairings and it was fabulous! Each course was delicious! They were even able to make adjustments for dietary restrictions. We can't wait to come back again!

Our meals were excellent as always and the service was first rate. The dining room was a bit chilly especially as we were seated near the front entrance and drafty windows. But overall, Dante's is one of the best restaurants in northeast Ohio and we will return soon.

This is one of the best high end bar/restaurants in the Tremont neighbourhood! Love it.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful dinner at Dante. The service was quick and friendly, the food was beautiful and the drinks were fantastic.
