I knew Cafe Dante since 1992, when I first moved in NYC (I am an Asian guy who lived in NYC) It's the greatest l'il Italian Cafe I've ever visit. The barista knew well what they are doing with coffee and coffee machine. Cakes are outstanding. Especially their Tiramisu. Oulala!!!! The new l'il resto next to this cafe? I've never been there tho. The waitresses are very nice and friendly.

Great food, great gelato, great service. And I don't know if she still works there but there used to be a Brazilian lady who worked there who was as pretty as they come. There's no better dinner value in NYC. For the quality of the food, the price is outstanding.

Pros: great food great price

Cons: I have none
