" If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine, look no further than Al Dente! The calamari was perfectly seasoned, not greasy, and the marinara sauce served with it was a great dip. Our pasta dishes were outstanding—each cooked to perfection. What stood out most, though, was the service—prompt, friendly, and genuine, making us feel welcomed throughout our meal. Will recommend to family and friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved the ambiance here! It felt like a true Italian trattoria with its rustic charm. The food was good, but I found the portions a bit small compared to similar Italian restaurants I've been to. They should consider offering family-style servings. The bruschetta was tasty and the pasta special of the day was delightful. Service was efficient, with staff checking in just the right amount. " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to celebrate my husband’s birthday at Al Dente and were not disappointed! Starting with the cheese and charcuterie board, we dove straight into the main dishes of risotto and veal. The flavors were vibrant, and everything tasted fresh. I was particularly impressed by how the server brought a complimentary dessert for us to celebrate. It was a lovely touch. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Al Dente really is a foodie gem. The pasta is made fresh and you can taste the quality in every bite. I tried the carbonara, and it was creamy with just enough seasoning. However, I found the portion sizes a tad on the smaller side for the price. Despite this, the ambiance compensates for it, making it a great spot for a date night. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Al Dente based on the recommendations, but I left slightly disappointed. The carbonara was overly creamy for my taste, and I expected more authentic flavors. The ambiance was nice, and service was on point. I'll give it another try since the menu had many interesting dishes that I want to explore. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely loved my experience at Al Dente. The food was so delicious, especially the veal! The staff was super friendly and eager to help with wine pairings. The ambiance felt cozy and inviting, perfect for a date night. Most certainly will visit again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a delightful experience at Al Dente! The staff was warm and welcoming, and the food was on point. I savored a delicious eggplant parmesan, which had generous layers of gooey cheese and a rich tomato sauce. My friend’s chicken marsala was also delicious. Our only regret was we were too full for dessert! " (*Curated Review*)
