In the lovely preservation village of Colinton, Dantes looks upscale.
But beneath its borderline flashy exterior there lies a classic Italian restaurant – a warm welcome, traditionally structured menu and great food.
I loved the flawless saltimbocca alla Romana, while the seared duck breast on wilted spinach with a thyme and plum reduction was memorable.
The wine list is also unusually varied.
Dantes is not cheap but it’s definitely worth it.
