Antico Caffe Dante

Restaurant Antico Caffe Dante is beautifully situated on the Piazza dei Signori which is surrounded by historical buildings. The restaurant was founded in 1837 and offers gourmet food and fine wines. On the menu, you will find Mediterranean and Italian food, dishes like lamb with baked potato, risotto with Amarone wine and lobster ravioli.

Dining

Veronese cuisine is extremely tasty. Many dishes are meat-based and you should, at the very least, try the pastissada de caval—a horse-meat stew cooked in red wine with polenta (a sort of thick porridge made with maize flour). There are many different kinds of risotto available, such as risi e bisi—with peas, or coi bruscandoli—with herbs, and rich homemade pasta, especially gnocchi. Don’t miss the soppressa all’aglio (salami with garlic).
