About

I am a bar veteran carrying over 15 years of working in high end, craft cocktail bars, etc. “Etcetera” meaning I’ve got a pretty diverse resume. From Chicago to Phoenix, I’ve competed, won awards, traveled the world, consulted on prestigious bar programs and been featured on tv/news several times for my craft. I am particularly skilled at creating a fun atmosphere and a hospitable ambience around cocktails, AND I take the business side seriously. Easy communication, transparency and integrity are paramount to starting a good business relationship. I will not make promises I can’t follow through on! I look forward to making your event fun and lively and something your guests will remember forever.

I had hired Dante for a Diwali Indian backyard party. He went above and beyond in his service that he had researched about background and culture behind the Diwali event and came prepared to serve the guests with an Indian touch. He is also very experienced, has great hosting skills and engaged with the guests very well. He is a great bartender and one of the few that can really elevate the experience for the guests. Dante is great and I would hire him for all my events .

Dante is the professional bartender you're looking for! Not only did he arrive to the event early, he set up a beautiful bar and brought so many of his own tools, glasses, etc...to make it perfect. And he worked with my client to determine what drinks to serve and how much to purchase. I will be using Dante on all my future catering events!

Details: Special event / party • Fewer than 50 guests

Our experience with Dante's service for our Friendsgiving was nothing short of exceptional. From the outset, Dante demonstrated an unwavering commitment to ensuring our event's success. His prompt response upon selecting his service set the tone for the level of dedication we could expect. Daily communication leading up to the party allowed us to fine-tune every detail, thanks to Dante's receptive and solution-oriented approach.

Dante's proactive attitude was evident from the early setup, arriving punctually and extending his presence late into the evening to ensure a continuous flow of drinks for our guests. His personal touch was remarkable; it felt as though he had committed each of the 30 guests' names to memory. This personalized approach fostered connections, creating an inviting atmosphere at the bar.

What truly set Dante apart was his ability to turn our concerns into solutions swiftly. His adept mixology skills and charismatic demeanor encouraged guests to explore diverse cocktails, transforming our Friendsgiving into a memorable night. Without a doubt, hiring Dante was the highlight of our event planning, with guests gravitating toward the bar, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

In a heartwarming touch, Dante even extended his hospitality to the younger attendees by crafting kid-friendly beverages. This considerate inclusion made the children feel just as valued and included in the celebration. Dante's attention to detail and commitment to creating an inclusive atmosphere truly made our Friendsgiving a well-rounded and memorable experience for guests of all ages.

Dante was super personable with all my guests. He jumped right into action and was super professional. I hired D’ante for a50th birthday event with about 100 people for 4 hours. Everyone had a drink quickly. I liked that he engaged with the guests and maintained a very professional demeanor.
