" I visited Al Dente's for the second time last night. The vibe was charming, and the staff was friendly. I enjoyed the seafood risotto, and they offered a decent portion for the price. My only critique is that it took a while for our food to come out, but they did provide complimentary bread and olive oil while we waited, which was nice. Overall, I would recommend it for anyone looking for authentic Italian food in a pleasant setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" I don't usually write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my disappointment. I tried the Fettuccine Alfredo, which was overly creamy and lacked any real flavor. As someone who loves good Italian food, I expected much more. The service was okay, but this didn't redeem the meal. I won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopped by Al Dente's for dinner after hearing great things! The service was very friendly, but the food was a bit underwhelming. I had the carbonara and it was far too creamy, lacking the depth of flavor I usually expect. I wouldn't mind giving it another shot, hoping it was just a bad day. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of the best romantic dinners we’ve had at Al Dente's! The atmosphere was perfect for our anniversary, and both our meals exceeded expectations. The lobster ravioli was phenomenal. Service was top-notch, attentive without being intrusive. We loved our experience and look forward to returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to visiting Al Dente's, but I came away feeling disappointed. The atmosphere was nice, but my pasta was undercooked and bland. The server was polite, but it did take a while to get our drinks. I might consider a return visit in the future, but it will have to be for a special occasion only. " (*Curated Review*)

" Al Dente's is a fantastic Italian restaurant! The ravioli was fresh, and the marinara sauce was some of the best I've tried. I loved the atmosphere – intimate and inviting—perfect for a date night! The prices were decent considering the quality of the food served. I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Al Dente's last week and was impressed by the friendly staff and diverse menu. I really enjoyed their shrimp scampi; the flavors were fresh and balanced. I sat outside, which was pleasant, although the noise from the street was a bit distracting. Overall, a great experience that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good Italian meal.
