Al Dente is a hidden gem in San Diego that truly captures the essence of Italian dining! 🇮🇹 We enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the friendly service from beginning to end.

I indulged in the chef's special served in a cheese wheel - absolutely divine! The calamari was crisp and bursting with flavor. But the standout was the tiramisu; it was heavenly and the perfect finish to our meal.

Fast service and a great happy hour seal the deal. Can't wait to come back for more deliciousness! 🍝✨

I had a delightful solo dinner at this cozy Italian spot! The Capellini in vodka sauce was perfectly cooked, but the tiramisu truly stole the show - so soft and heavenly! Fast service and a warm atmosphere made it an unforgettable experience. Can't wait to return!...
