Ambiance was fantastic. Service was a little slow. The brunch menu online was not current with what they were offering. We had made up our minds before going, but neither item was available. Still, would definitely go back!

We had brunch at Dante Next Door before attending a CSU basketball game. The location is good for that purpose. We shared a Dante Inferno pizza that was good and we each got a entree. Two had the Ohio Proud breakfast that consisted of a hanger steak, two eggs and fried potatoes. A good breakfast but toast is a side dish that you need to order separately. One in our party had the traditional eggs Benedict and it was good. One coffee and one tea brought the bill to $93 before tip. Service was good through out the visit. We would go again.

Brunch drinks were really good. There appeared to be a mixup with the menu; what we ordered off the menu is not what we received. Additionally, we had a substitution or two that were not done. We raised the issues to the server and manager but nothing was ever corrected (though they did acknowledge the menu being wrong). What correct food we received was very good but it’s frustrating to not get what we paid for when considering the price point. I can’t recommend dining here simply because brunch is expensive and they really need to figure out their menu situation because there’s lots of potential.

The food and service were unsurpassed. It was a bit loud (no soft surfaces to deaden sound) so not really a good date spot. But the food was A-MAY-ZING. And our server was polite, competent, very accommodating, and present enough to care for our needs without hovering. Definitely recommend.
