For many, Dante is the bar that put New York’s modern cocktail scene back on the map. After rising to the top of the World’s 50 Best Bars list in just a few short years, it helped usher in a new era of cocktail culture in the city. But what exactly is Dante? A cocktail bar? A restaurant? Something in between? And how do you grow a brand nationally and internationally without losing the magic that made it special in the first place? On this episode of The Buildout, owner Linden Pride joins Adam to tell the story behind Dante, and how he and his wife and partner, Nathalie, have expanded it beyond anything they first imagined while preserving the spark that made it iconic.
