From the people behind the restaurants
What restaurant owners and partners say.
“I have worked with Danto Builders for almost 10 years. Their knowledge of and experience in design, layout, building, codes and coordination of suppliers and subcontractors allowed us to complete the renovation of Pa' De Gennero's as efficiently as possible. The quality workmanship was excellent. I can absolutely depend on Danto Builders to understand my vision, adapt quickly to any changes and make it happen for any job big or small.”

“I want to thank Danto Builders again for putting in the extra effort in undertaking the Cuchina D'Angelo design and build project in the middle of the season. I couldn't believe that you got our Certificate of Occupancy within 40 days, given the average is three to four months! I was especially surprised that you were able to accomplish this given the scope of the work, including demolition, redesigning the kitchen and dining room and calling in an architect to draw 'as built' based on your design. The compliments that the Cuchina D'Angelo receives on its decor and finishes are directly contributed to the concepts, design and finishes of which you provided.”
Sal Mauro
Owner, Casa D'Angelo
Cuchina D'Angelo — Boca Raton, Florida
“We are writing to express how impressed we are with the exceptional work you have done for us at our Segafredo of Pembroke Pines restaurant and lounge. Your suggestions, attention to detail, and manner in which you look out for your customer's best interest, are qualities your company has proved to have. From inception to completion your company has been very professional and at all times on task to help us maintain the concept and vision we desired. You should be very proud of your efficient team.”
