New spot for my wife and I. We've passed this location multiple times and decided to finally stop by and check it out. Glad we did!! Food was fresh and HOT!! I don't particularly like just cheese pizza but this Ai 4 formaggio pizza is delish. Probably the best my wife has had (she stated). The fettuccine is wide noodles and Al dente. And comes with side of seasoned bread. We also ordered tiramisu which had had crunchy middle (not a fan of the soggy middle). Overall my wife and I recommend this Al Dente located inside the Dunedin Mix.

This is such a wonderful authentic Italian restaurant. The family is actually Italian, they import their flour and hand make all the pastas. This is like having your Italian grandma cook for you. My husband who generally won't eat pasta or white flour for that matter, LOVES this place. He doesn't react to the flour like he does with others. This place is a great casual dining experience or take-out or delivery! We are hooked! So happy to have this gem in Dunedin!

We enjoyed our pasta and pizza. He had a tough time getting the oven warmed up after being closed and our super cold front so a very small part of the pizza was a little soggy but overall the fresh pasta and the flavor on both was incredible. Definitely recommend!

Their margarita pizza is the best I've ever had. You can tell the dough is homemade and the sauce is imported, Italian tomatoes, and the mozzarella is a step above everybody else great pizza.

I feel bad giving a poor review to a new restaurant. I know it's hard out there for a new place but like... I don't mind "our take on ____ (traditional recipe)," if it's made really clear that it's a revisioning of the recipe.Their description says, "San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, basil."So I was bamboozled into thinking the thing they market as a margherita pizza would have some similarity to an actual margherita pizza. It does not. It's a floppy undercooked cheese pizza with a light pesto drizzle. I originally wanted to order some other items but based on this I don't trust the rest of their menu. I would be embarrassed to serve this.

I had high hopes for this place based on the Yelp reviews. I rarely leave bad reviews but I hope this helps the business do better with their service and food. First, it wasn't written anywhere that you have to place an order for pick up online only, so I called the number listed. A man answered "Hello?" I said "is this Al Dente?" He said "yes", I said "I'd like to place an order for pick up", he said "I'm not at the location, you have to order online". I placed my order online. I got the Grandma's Meatballs, the Carbonara with penne and a mixed green salad. When I arrived at the location there were two closed walk up windows. I was unsure which one to go to, I stood in front of one window and could see a man making pizza. He didn't look at me or seem to notice I was there. I went to the other window, about 2 minutes later, a man opened the window. He didn't say anything to welcome me or in greeting. I said "I'm here for pick up. I ordered online" he said "Five more minutes" and shut the window. About 8 minutes later I could see him packing up my order. The salad was premade in a plastic container that he grabbed from a refrigerator and put in a bag. When I got home I noticed that the cheese on top of the meatballs was black and very burnt. When serving the salad I could see that some of the leaves were dark brown and slimy. I was able to pick out enough good leaves for two servings. There was no dressing, just a light drizzle of balsamic glaze, so we used some dressing we had at home. The penne carbonara was flavorless and the pasta was overcooked and mushy. After scraping off the burnt cheese, my mom and I tried the meatballs. They were so tough it was hard to cut into them and the flavor was really bad. They were loaded with full sprigs of fresh rosemary, which I have never had in a meatball before and it was a very overpowering taste. We both couldn't eat any more of them. I went back to the website and saw that the list of ingredients for the meatballs doesn't say rosemary or fresh herbs anywhere. Maybe the pizza is good like the other reviews say, but what we tried was the worst Italian food we have ever had and won't be back.

Everything is a 10/10. I am obsessed with this hidden gem. These gnocchi were delicious. They make real italian food, not the typical italo-americano dishes and some people may not understand that. As an italian, i've been looking for a place like this for years and im so happy I have finally found real amazing italian food.

Best pizza i've ever had! The pizza oven that's visible to the customers is so appealing! The workers were so friendly and gave me some pointers and recommendations. Will definitely come back and try the rest of this mouth watering menu. 10/10
