by Martim G. on Loved it. I told my girlfriend about this place a year ago and have been badgering her about going ever since. She said she didn't like fondue and that when she went to the Melting Pot they poured Milwaukee's Best into the cheese. I assured her that this place was not going to pour 'beast' into her fondue and so last week she finally agreed to go. Dante's is located behind what looks like a house over in Buckhead. Walking up to the place was an experience unto itself; seeing the grave of Dante's old reptilian friend and various nautical shenanigans barely prepared me for what's inside. Wow, a ship? A moat? A wharf? A live jazz band? A live alligator? Forgetting you're in Atlanta for a few hours: priceless. The staff was really friendly, taking us on a tour of the place before we decided where to sit. Then we changed our minds and they were more than accommodating in moving us somewhere else. Ok, the food: awesome. We got the special, which was a cheese fondue and a mandarin fondue. It also included a bottle of wine and cost $75 or so for two people. Not cheap but considering the food, the place and the service, it was $75 well spent. Oh, and there's a $7 cover per person if you want to sit in the ship (where the jazz band is). So everything was great, they band even played a song that the woman I was sitting across from the entire night and whose food I was paying for had requested. So, in conclusion, Dante's is an awesome place. I'll definitely go back as soon as I have another wad of cash to spend on some fondue and nautical jazz. It's a good place to go on a date if you and your date are both fun people who want to dine in a place that looks like the set from 'Hook'.
by J O. on Liveliest restuarant/lounge in San Francisco. We went primarily to listen to good music after our great dinner at Bobo's. MUSIC: Went on Sat. night and they were nothing short of amazing. The band was very talented. One of the members is from the Gap Band! They keep the crowd energized and entertained! Atmosphere: Only for grown-ups. It's a mixture of diverse people, from 20's and up. Drink menu was good. SERVICE: minus one star for service. They appear to be understaffed. Expect to wait 10-15 minutes for a server to check on you. Overall: If you are looking for a live, yet relaxing venue where people are there to just have a great time listening to great music....come here.
by Virgilio Schaunt on Went there on a Thursday nite just to check it out as a bumped across the funky cool name somewhere. Very cozy little spot that had live jazz band and even a little spoken word. Good place to meet new people for casual conversations. Got there a little late and only had chance to get one glass of wine and hear the last 2 songs from the band....that was good enough. For now, don't have too much to say about it, but so far it is a place worth visiting again....this time I will be there much earlier for a full intake.
