Papa Dante's Restaurant Italian Restaurant ·$$

Located at the corner of Toepperwein Road and FM 1976 in Converse, this local favorite is worth the drive required to reach it. For more than 20 years, it has been serving flavorful and inexpensive food in pleasantly large portions. Pizzas, hot and cold submarine sandwiches, salads, soups and appetizers are available, as is a hearty selection of pasta dishes such as spaghetti, lasagna and mostaccioli. All entrees are available with extra Italian sausage or meatballs if you're extra hungry. Top it off with a cappuccino or some of Papa Dante's hot apple skillet a la mode and you won't regret the trip.

Service was great friendly wait staff! Pepperoni bread was delicious little buttery but I like that. The fried ravioli was yum crispy and did not skimp on the cheese.

Papa Dante's is a restaurant filled with historic photos yearning for a long lost heyday. They feature prehistoric italian recipes, dated operations, low ambiance and the slow business to...
