"The pizza here is fantastic! I’m looking forward to trying some of their other dishes. Each time I visit, the staff is incredibly friendly, and they offer some interesting Italian products for sale as well. The interior of the restaurant is quite charming, and although I haven’t dined in yet, I definitely hope to do so someday."

"Went for Downtown Dining Week. This restaurant was on the $35 list, however service was significantly below that level. There was a long wait between courses, but plates were not cleared off the table until the next course arrived. Our server appeared very disinterested in our table. It also took a long time for drink orders to be delivered. New silverware was not provided and I was explicitly asked to remove my fork from the plate so the server could clear the plate. The food was decent to good, but nothing special. None of these issues would be that bad had they not all occurred or had the restaurant been on the $25 list instead."

"Ok I have been here a few times and I rarely give out a five star review across the board so let me just explain. There is nothing this place needs to do to improve what they have going on. The atmosphere here is great reminds me of visiting some of the pubs in Ireand without being and Irish pub. The foods solid I have no complaints although I always like to think I can improve a dish. And the staff has always been polite and diligent. The drink specials always seem to impress me. I just think you would be hard pressed to be disappointed here, definitely give this spot a try."

"I was looking for an Italian restaurant that we have not yet tried for my wife, and I would like to celebrate our 9-year anniversary. my elders proposed and let me tell them we were not disappointed! first it is a byob, so we have decided to bring a bottle of Italian red wine from one of the favourites we visited in Italy. we sat in their new outside area and it was really nice. one of the owners, tony, came to us and we had a little chat. extremely nice guy and we loved talking to him. our waiter tyler was fast, friendly and very friendly. we ordered the pork for a starter, my wife had the salmon, and I had the pollen casa. we finished with this amazing dessert (the tony and tyler recommended) which was a melted keks in a skillful with gelato, caramel sauce and whipped cream. the next day I saw a call from mendham. tony asked how our first meal was there. I've never done this before, and it just felt like we weren't just a customer. they really go beyond and beyond to make them feel like family, which is the way we remember when we were in italia in 2016. we highly recommend dante’s for a romantic Italian dinner and we cannot expect to visit again."

"The idea of standing in line to order your food before even sitting down is confusing and not enjoyable. It’s stressful trying to decide what to eat with people hovering around you. The staff at the front were unfriendly, arrogant, and unhelpful. When we asked to be seated instead of going down to the basement (especially since our elderly father, who’s 94, was with us), they looked at us as if we were breaking some sort of sacred protocol. Eventually, they allowed us to go to our table, where we were largely ignored by the overly numerous waitstaff. A shoutout to the person who filled our water glasses—they were very attentive and did a great job. When our server finally made it to our table and asked what we wanted to drink, I inquired about the beer options (as there was no list), and he had no idea what was available. He suggested I head down to the bar to check. My wife and I ordered a Josh Cabernet, but it was served so warm I was surprised it didn’t catch fire! My dad ordered the featured pineapple cocktail, which was definitely not worth it. The salad was the worst I've ever had—the dressing tasted and smelled like nail polish remover. The canned roasted red peppers with garlic for an appetizer were a disappointment, earning zero stars. The famed pasta with garlic oil appetizer was completely devoid of flavor. I'm guessing they used three cups of oil, and none of it was extra virgin olive oil. We ordered surf and turf, where the filet was okay, but the lobster was bland and not fully cooked. The bone-in ribeye was nicely cooked, but similarly bland, and the shrimp scampi was average; we never even received the pasta it was supposed to come with. The local corn on the cob, served as the vegetable after sitting in water for what must have been three hours, was tasteless. How do you ruin such beautiful local corn? The apple crisp was mushy and just terrible. I ordered mint chocolate chip ice cream, and guess what? Not a single chocolate chip in sight! The chocolate and vanilla ice cream tasted like it came from Friendly's. The coffee was harsh, bitter, and tasted old. Then we spent an additional 15 minutes trying to get our painfully slow waiter to bring us the check. I didn’t mention our friends’ food since I didn’t try theirs. Overall, I rate the food a 2, service a 2, and atmosphere a 1."
