Love this place! Food & service are perfect.

However, the AC broke & it's 27 degrees inside!! If they at least put a fan it would help things but you sweat like no tomorrow now…

J'ai été client de Al Dente de 1995 à 2020. J'y suis retourné récemment mais j'ai été déçu. La pizza (leur force du passé) était très moyenne (qualité du fromage entre autres) & la soupe minestrone banale par rapport à celle d'avant.

Rien n'est d'italien dans ce restaurant, le pizza est sec c'est la même pâte que chez pizza pizza , la lasagne est correcte quand même. Mais j'insiste que ce n'est pas italien. Le personnel était sympa.
