Fodor's Expert Review Restaurant Dante

With one of the best patio views of the Charles River, Dante almost resembles a seaside café on the Amalfi coast. Kick off dinner with some Prosecco and a handful of sfizi (small bites) such as the warm olive, burrata, or fried calamari, followed by a silky housemade pasta (several are gluten-free) with richly flavored sauce like the rabbit ragu or a perfectly charred hanger steak with cipollini sauce. Alternatively, they offer a six-course chef's tasting menu that might include a number of specialties not on the daily menu. Finish either off with a taste of traditional tiramisu, Venetian-style fried dough, gelato, or decadent cheese selections.
