Review Summary

Regulars praise Al Dente Trattoria for good food, friendly service, and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with well chosen classics. Diners rave about dishes like lobster pasta, osso buco, and a standout rack of lamb, with some calling the lamb the best in town. The BYOB option is a popular plus, contributing to affordable, enjoyable meals. Still, some visits reveal a more uneven side, including crowded nights, moments of overwhelmed staff, and occasional issues such as dry pizza or cold mussels. The overall vibe is lively and nostalgic, with a family feel that keeps guests coming back. Despite the occasional hiccups, many leave satisfied and planning a return.

Good food & service. The new extra charges for whole wheat pasta & whole wheat pizza crust mean we visit less often. The Parmesan they offer with pasta dishes no longer tastes like real Parmesan from Italy. It has little flavor bowl

Great bring your own wine Italian restaurant. The table d'hote menu had many great choices. The chicken in lemon sauce was one of the best dishes I've had eating out in a long time.

I ordered the pasta napolitana & it was pretty disappointing. Tastes like way too much garlic & onion, too chunky, & over-seasoned, to the point that the sauce was a dark brown instead of red how it should be. I'm sure some of their dishes are delicious but this isn't the one for me.
