Al Dente serves pure Italian food, unadulterated by cream or pre-cooked pasta, always fresh and delicious. Our authentic food and surroundings are typical of a traditional Italian restaurant.
Al Dente, literally "on the tooth", indicates a firmness of pasta texture, which is symptomatic of freshly cooked pasta.
From the relaxed, friendly atmosphere to the fresh, delicious food - this is the place to come to in Edinburgh for the real italian experience.
