Overall

Wonderful Meal

My family and I ate at Al Dente last night and what a treat! We made a reservation earlier in the day yet had to call while driving there knowing we were going to be late and they still accomodated us. The place was packed so we knew it would be a good choice. The merlot was smooth, the minestrone soup was stocked with veggies, the Cesaer sald for two could feed 4, and my Veal Forentino was amazing. Our waitress, Bonnie, was a delight; very attentive and chatty. After our meal, she served us Lemon Cello (on the house!) and it was delish! Well worth our time; definitely will return!
