not good Italian food!!!!!! Papa Dante's in Converse is DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!! NASTY FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This restaurant has it all! Excellent food with warm atmosphere and friendly wait staff. The calimari is perhaps the best I have ever enjoyed and the itialianmargarita is superb. No one has better itialian that Pompeii!

Some of my friends and family took me here for my birthday in 03/2010; I had never been there before...BUT I LOVE THE FOOD. It was very delicious and the atmosphere was pleasant; service was ok but we did have a big group so the waiter did his best. I recommend this restaurant for any occasion; 1st date or silver anniversary and all in between.-MRRodriguez

I really liked what I ordered there. It was a crape with chicken and a creamy orangy sauce(which was tamato mixed with alfredo) and I believe there was spinach in the crape as well. Of course I have eaten enough Italian to know that I like that particular kind of dish. If you don't eat a lot of pastas and sauces I would suggest asking the waiter/waitress what they recommend from what you usually like/dislike. My husband on the other hand didnt know what he was getting and ended up getting something without a whole lot of flavor. I believe it was chicken and artichoke hearts in linguine, with olive oil as the sauce (I imagine with other herbs as well) but it was too bland for him and I had to give him some of my sauce. Definately a nice, and relatively in-exspensive place to eat. Its prices compete well with other finer places around. maybe 10-15$ a plate. I give it a big thumbs up!

spent our 2 yr anniversary here. Atmoshpere, food, and service was wonderful.. Would definately eat here again
