Al Dente's

Been here twice, once on a girls’ night out and again with my family (two young kids) and I’ll keep coming back. Service is good and the food is tasty! I’d say it’s slightly more authentic than your American Italian so there’s something for everyone to enjoy. 1 star off because service can slip a bit when busy, needing to find a server for water and slower wait time. Big fan of the calamari, apricot chicken with tossed garlic linguine on side, and seafood risotto—HUGE chunks of lobster and plentiful seafood cooked well. A couple things to note: -No kids menu (or entertainment like crayons, not a problem)…waitress gave few options like flatbread pizza, spaghetti and meatballs and chicken tenders for the littles -Gluten Free pasta is a minimal up charge -Happy Hour is a must for appetizers! (Half off before 6pm—Didn’t get drinks so I can’t say anything in that regard) Recommend: Apricot Chicken, Seafood Risotto, Chicken Parmesan, Calamari
