We ordered ravioli and gnocchi. Portions were abundant and tasted good. Reasonable prices considering the area. The salon is not large so it’s a bit noisy. The waiter super friendly.

My daughter and I enjoyed our meal. Joann was an amazing waitress. We tried the pumpkin raviolis, we felt that was more like a desert than an appetizer, it was delicious! I had the cheese lasagna and meatball, my daughter had the fettuccine Alfredo and both were delicious.
I ordered the vodka sauce pasta with penne and it was 10/10

You know it's a bit naive to trust Google Reviews. I chose their Al Dente Special and got a pretty decent looking dish that had the potential to be delecious. But they must not know that umami is something that should be embraced and that spices makes the food taste better. No, it was bland at best. No passion.*** Fresh ingredients, but bland and boring. And expensive. ***The servers? Uninterested in their job and seemed unhappy. I felt sorry for the young lady who probably wanted to be anywhere else.Spend your money elsewhere. Did I mention that I, among my other three coworkers had the better experience?

Funny that they’re called Al Dente but that I had quite the opposite experience with my pasta there. I really wanted to like the two dishes I got, the lobster ravioli and the quattro formaggio but they served the wrong pasta for the latter (I ordered fusilli and got casarecce) and the pasta was overcooked. We asked for recommendations from the waitress and she said a lobster ravioli would be different from the quattro formaggio but they ended up being very similar. They both seemed like a vaguely tomato-y cream sauce that lacked any personality. We were also seated right next to the door on a day when it was about 13 degrees outside even though the restaurant was nearly empty so I was very cold the whole time. I was so excited to try this place and was hyping it up to my friend as “authentic pasta” since she was trying Italian food for the first time in the US so I was biased in favor of trying to like it, so me saying it was a big let down means it was really disappointing for the money.

Don’t bother making a reservation. Made one on their website a month in advance for 6pm and waited 36 minutes outside on the tiny side walk to be seated. People who walked up after us for reservations at 6:15 were seated before us. A few locals told us there were always people standing on the side walk waiting. Service was bad and very rushed and food wasn’t really worth it. Very loud atmosphere.

The raviolis are decent, everything else is bland and the tomato sauce taste worse than the supermarket. Overpriced.
A friend recommended this amazing little spot away from the overpriced tourist traps on hanover street. Our waitress (I wish I got her name) and an older woman who I think owned the place were AMAZING, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and we talked all about the old neighborhood I remembered from when I was a child going to haymarket and north end every weekend for meat and produce. Meal was amazing and not overpriced. They even gave us complimentary dessert shots before we left. My new Favorite place in the North End
I wasn’t feeling good and wanted soup so by chance I found this place on uber eats and ordered the chicken and vegetable tortellini soup. First, I’m not usually a big fan of soup but it was a cold rainy day and I was feeling sick so decided to go for it. It was sooooo good! Best soup I have had in my entire life! Loaded with tortellini, chicken, veggies, and the broth was so delicious! 10/10 would get this again!

Don't want people of color in their establishment. Assumed I was picking up delivery. Planned on meeting friends but changed location due to the foul treatment.

My absolute favorite restaurant. My boyfriend and I come here all the time because of the wonderful service, food, and atmosphere. To say this place is amazing is an understatement. Will forever have great memories here.Parking: They validate the parking if you park in the Haymarket garage. Only is $2-$3
