    As always, it was a stellar dining experience. The waitstaff is friendly and helpful, the food is superb, and the ambience is perfect. I can’t recommend this place enough. The standout dishes were the Gnocchi and Buffalo Shank, and the Polpette pizza. And the budino is a must.

    The food and service was outstanding, as always! Our group had the Alaskan salmon crudo, beef filet and squid ink taglierini with squid. The cocktails were perfect and the bartender even made a couple of cocktails off of their new menu to be released next week. Blondie dessert was amazing!

    Our appetizers were top notch. If we dine there again, I think we may simply order several appetizers and feast on those. We ordered pizzas as our main course. While the pizza crust was outstanding, the various toppings were just okay. They were edible, but for the price, one would hope for something more appealing.

    Dante is always really good food, but when fresh produce comes in season it becomes exceptional. Dante’s takes Farm to Table seriously! Tonight’s dinner consisted of David’s Focaccia with ramp pesto, speck, and creamy burratta. There were so many layers of flavors. Next was the ricotta gnocchi with a creamy ramp sauce and English peas. The gnocchi were little pillows of goodness. The wood roasted asparagus was the best that spring offers. Finally, the lemoncello cheesecake with rhubarb jam was a great combination of my favorite flavors of spring.

    Service was not good, didn’t seem to have enough waitstaff. Food took a long time to come out. Some of the meals were quite good but some not. Portions were extremely small for the amount paid. The one positive about the experience was the ambience.

    The cheese cake was Devine, and the Pizza was as good as anything we had in Italy. It, along with a cold glass of Peroni meant for a wonderful evening. What Dante has done in creating an ambiance of fun and energy and a menu of fresh locally sourced sides and the freshest fish and beef the area.

    We are so so fortunate to have Dante so close to our home. We go there weekly. No other restaurant comes close to this wonderful, truly authentic Italian venue. The PIZZA is straight from Italy. The fish is as fresh as you will ever get in Omaha. The pasta is the best and made in house. The deserts are varied and wonderful. And the Italian wine selection from every region in Italy. What's not to like?

    I live in AZ now but when I come back home to visit I always like to go to Dante’s. I was shocked by how much the prices have gone up. They have in AZ also but $32 for lasagna and $5 more if you want cheese on it is crazy. I pay $28 at Vic & Ola’s in Scottsdale and it comes with the cheese. I was just really surprised and disappointed😔
