Dante Ristorante Pizzeria – Oltrano District- June 2026

Not just great pizza here….also great entrees cooked by Chef Mohammed!

Restaurant owned and managed by Dante himself!

Dante has taken care of this restaurant for 20 years! I visited this lovely place about 3 years ago. Nothing seemed to have changed. Inside is a beautifully decorated interior with pleasant music.

I was served a focaccio before my dinner on a large plate prior to the arrival of my chicken entree!

Simply “buonissimo!” The chicken had an amazing flavor!
Inside Trattoria Dante, a fresco of Dante and his beloved Beatrice overlooks the dining room, adding a touch of Florentine literary history to the restaurant’s charming old-world atmosphere.
In the 2nd and 3rd photo are Dante and his employee, Jasmine, 25 years old and worked at Dante for only 3 months. She was very pleasant and efficient! I was surprised with complimemtary yummy cookies after dinner!

Traveling has always been in my blood since I was very young. My family moved frequently to different locations throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey in the United States due to my mother's teaching jobs. As a young girl, I would accompany my mother on bus trips to visit her relatives in different parts of the United States. Throughout my younger years, I could only dream of traveling to Italy and being fluent in the language. My father was Sicilian but rarely spoke in Italian. In 2013, my mother took me on my first international trip to Italy. I felt so fortunate to see Rome, Venice, Florence, and other regions of Tuscany. At that time, I became determined to return to Italy. I was obsessed with discovering the most economical way to solo travel. Eventually, I took a chance and learned along the way to solo travel. I was able to return to one of my favorite cities in Italy, Florence. In this area, I have enjoyed studying the Italian language and familiarizing myself with the art and culture. Furthermore, I have gained a new inner strength and the ability to expand my life. Every year, I try to explore and write about my travel experiences. I have made many wonderful friends and found endless new places to explore. It is my pleasure to inspire other travelers to unhook the inner fears of trying something that seems impossible. The results are incredible! You may contact me at vmcarson@aol.com with any solo traveling questions!
