Not a family place. We took our kids with us to have dinner with grandpa. The first issue was they did not have any highchair. what place doesn’t have highchairs? So needless to say there was no kid friendly food on the menu. Obviously they do not welcome kids. Why not just put a NOCHILDRENALOWED sign on the front door? That would make life a little less complicated. my kids were great considering we sat there for 2 hours for our overpriced pizza.

This restaurant would be at home in any of the five boroughs. It’s understated and sophisticated, and somebody KNOWSFOOD! We’ve been here several times over various seasons and marvel anew at the creativity and execution. My hubby adores their pasta, both the pasta and the sauce(tonight he had carbonara). I can’t do carbs, so I opted for the chili and a Greek salad. More on that later. We split the prosciutto-wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese as a starter. Sublime! I’m very picky about my chili and don’t usually order it out, but this surpassed all my expectations. Five different kinds of beans, exactly the right amount of ground beef, spiced-but not too much-it was nirvana in a bowl! The Greek salad was fresh, again everything in the balanced proportion. We tend to dine early, so it’s not crowded when we’re there. I hope it fills up later, ’cause it’s too good a restaurant to not make it! Nice drink menu, and the staff seems to know wine(always a plus). Café Tazza goes to the top of our list!

There are a lot of places in Dansville that cater to the backward baseball hat and rock concert t-shirt crowd. This is not one of them. This place is for grown-ups, and it’s a welcomed change of pace. Going by the philosophy that it’s better to do a few things really well than to do a lot of things just ok, Caffe Tazza’s menu is somewhat limited. However, the food we had was fantastic. The Calamari was cooked just right. There was a bit of heat in the batter, and it was countered nicely by the hint of citrus in the dipping sauce that came with it The spaghetti carbonara was not drowning in cream sauce the way so many places in this area make it. It was the perfect balance of crisp bacon and eggs. My wife’s lemon and artichoke pasta dish was very tasty. The only complaint is that the bread that accompanied both entrees was served plain. Some olive oil, or even some butter would have been welcomed. On another occasion, I’ve tried their wood-fired pizza, and was not disappointed. Their style is very thin, but crispy crust. The varieties are not the run-of-the-mill pepperoni. Rather, there were some interesting choices with gormet cheeses and meats and vegetables. Caffee Tazza has an extensive wine list, and a number of craft beers, but fear not, they also have some regular beers for those who prefer a good old Bud. There was live music the night we were there. A single acoustic player who struck just the right tone. Not too overbearing, but not too sleepy either. The interior is very nice. The building looks line a 1920’s or 30’s era place with the old tin ceiling and crown moldings that create a charming atmosphere. They’re working on a back patio. It’s not finished yet, but it looks like it will be a fun place to hang out on a warm summer night when up and running.
