Went to another Al Dente company restaurant before- Cenacolo Steak & Pasta at SOHO ( SERVICE is really BAD), so this time gonna try Al DENTE SOHO...
Thanks my friend for making rsvp at 7PM.
We ended up arriving the restaurant around 720pm or so , and it's good that we do not need to wait and the waitress leaded us to 2nd floor.
Jeez, the restaurant is really packed and tiny...
After we sat down, the waitress kept introducing the wine to us ( as we do not have ANY interest in any wine)
Only 5 of us ordered alcohol and beers. ( cocktail is just alright as my fds did not finish up )

We've reminded the waitress several times until she finally gave us TAB WATER ( at first she gave us bottle water -__- )
The water tasted like detergent ( However, she claimed it's LEMON water - =_=, i've been drinking lemon water everyday but i never tasted lemon like that )
We've ordered 1 salmone pizza, 1 parma ham w/ melon, 1 Clam as appetizer to share.
the PIZZA is really thin, and GREAT....
Clam i heard it's good too =P
Parma ham- dont think its that gd

Finally, after 2 hrs at the restaurant and my fd gave me a surprise and got me e a cake XD, and I ordered tiramisu before as well ( the waitress did not reconfirm w/ me if I want the tiramisu after the cake arrived - ended up the tiramisu came after we cut the cake, and I have to TAKE AWAY the tiramisu using a box and had it during movie time afterwards )
This restaurant does have 切餅費 but we have to cut the cake by ourselves as they are really NOT ATTENTIVE on this.
!!! Next time if I go again, I might need to have 3 hrs staying there as the food come really slow and fully 3 hrs might give me better digestion.
Haha.

First time to this location of Al Dente. Overall I would say it’s a pretty good deal given that it’s on Staunton St. for dinner. Menu’s quite extensive many pastas, pizzas salads and meat dishes entrees. They are all of decent portion and good value for the price. Nothing spectacular but I would say it’s quite a good pick for a dinner spot in Soho if you don’t wanna break bank.The spinach salad was of a generous portions of greens with some chopped walnuts, sun dried tomatoes, garlic confit with

Nothing spectacular but I would say it’s quite a good pick for a dinner spot in Soho if you don’t wanna break bank.
The spinach salad was of a generous portions of greens with some chopped walnuts, sun dried tomatoes, garlic confit with walnut vinaigrette dressing. The lamb chops main course has three chops well cooked with some mashed potatoes and greens on the side.

The service really depends on the staff. One male stale with glasses was very friendly and attentive whereas one lady with short hair and glasses (maybe the manager?) had this attitude that I was like wow.. seriously? First of all she kept asking whether we want wine, whether we are gonna order some drinks non stop. OK I understand that beverage usually has a higher profit margin compared to food for restaurants but don’t need to be so hard sell!!

Also, when I was ordering my salad, I wanted to exclude the cheese and have the dressing on the side. Simple requests. But apparently not to this lady. She crossed her eyebrows and said “ A bit complicated, yeah?!” I’m like HUH?? Can I not make any request in this restaurant at all? What kind of attitude is this?!?!

Anyway I didn’t let that woman affect my mood and enjoyed my meal nonetheless.

I previously made a reservation for 8.30 but after arrival we still had to wait around 20 minutes for the couple at a table for four to finish to give us our table. Never mind I thought as we were in no hurry to be any where after, but waiting in the heat was quite tedious.

The restaurant itself is very, very cramped, and really full. There are only a couple waitresses and one host who tried to be nice.

We decided to forgo appetizers and ordered three mains:
Pasta al-dente
This was a dry type of spaghetti, dressed with olive oil and flavoured with herbs and garlic. It had chicken and other shredded peppers mixed in, and was relatively light. It was simple but really tasty. The pasta was linguine, cooked to perfection - retaining a little chewiness - 'al dente'.

Salmon Linguine
This was salmon and linguine in a rich tomato sauce. Compared to Pasta Al Dente this was more filling and heavier, but I preferred this pasta as I like tomato sauces. The pasta was the same as Pasta Al Dente, and there was generous bits of salmon in the sauce as well.

Primavera (veg) pizza
The pizza was quite disappointing. It looks fantastic - lots of colours and generous amount of melted cheese, but the base was so thin it turned soggy under the toppings. It was not crisp like I hoped at all. For $108 this was a little steep for such a poor pizza.

For dessert, we went for the Berry crumble to share. It took quite a while as it baked to order. It arrived with the ice cream on top rather than on the side, which kind of spoiled the crumble as it no longer than the crunchiness. Also, more crumble could've been used, it was a relatively thin layer. There was a variety of berries used, including cranberries, blackberries, raspberries and blueberries- all quite sour but alright when eaten with the ice cream and crumble. Not bad but not fab either.

Overall, i would say their pastas are quite fantastic, and even though the pasta menu may appear to be similar to the pastas served in other restaurants in Soho, the taste and overall execution is much better at Al Dente. I don't think I'd return on a Friday night again simply because it is too hectic and there aren't enough servers. The positive thing is that Al Dente's other branches seem more spacious than this Soho one.

講返食物先.. 本身自己好鐘意食PIZZA PASTA同沙律..
基本上食親都會叫 今次叫左個 三文魚沙律
勁大份.. 基本上四個人食都食唔晒...! 但係其實係好好食既
三文魚肥美新鮮.. 上面好多魚子魚子魚子同好多牛油果.. 而且個SAUCE 好LIGHT
d菜都好脆好新鮮 有80分以上!!

之後叫左個pizza + 兩個pasta
pizza方便叫左個 pizza al dente
其實只係簡簡單一個雞肉芝士pizza.. 但係 誠意十足
因為批底係脆既 但又唔覺得熱氣果隻.. 唔識點形容

而且裡面既cheese 唔只係monzzarella , 仲有feta係裡面

而pasta.. 平時叫得太多pasta al dente ,, 而且今次叫左pizza al dente
唔想再食雞肉意利.. 所以叫左呢個蝦angel hair,,
裡面除左有海蝦同大蝦之外 仲有龍蝦~~ wo.. 好濃味
有三種蝦係裡面 而且蝦肉真係唔少.. 個sauce 都係好重龍蝦味 而且十分creamy
pasta 唔洗講.. 真係裡到al dente.. 十分美味

而ravioli 今日係蕃茄sauce.. 想試下.. 裡面有好多cheese,,
其實已經好full所以冇乜點掂過呢個..
最後甜品叫左chocolate pudding..
.. d朱古力唔係流出來既.. 係爆出黎!! 嚇死我 熱辣辣 而且好濃味! 正正正
個雪糕食落應該唔係牛奶公司既普通貨式.. 不過唔知係咩黎~ 哈哈
好好味啦總之就!!

------同場加映 港女大鬧soho aldente ----
港女當道 攻陷SOHO

身為女性既我真係感到萬分羞愧.. 而家仲有D唔識講英文既WUBY 去SOHO食飯投訴冇中文MENU.. 太好笑
全餐飯隔離果台係度嘈嘈嘈又話冇中文menu,, 同d外藉waiter又雞同鴨講
對d waiter 態度又差,, 轉頭又自己係度大大聲話人地服務差
根本佢地自己連接受新事物既文化都冇 淨係識投訴
不過呢度真係一個識講中文既waiter都冇.. 我見佢地都一臉無奈..
不過就算係咁 我都覺得呢度d服務一d問題都冇..
而且佢地認客好叻.. 我差唔多3個月冇幫襯都認得我

I don't think if I would go back there again. There are plenty of other nice restaurents around..

之前去過Al Dente 灣仔分店晚飯,試過Pasta,Pizza,Beef tenderloin & Dessert 水準都不錯.難得有時間,今次經過中環店便試下呢度o既lunch,估唔到令我留下好感因星期日下午人不多,座得舒服d.平日人多時檯與檯之間好密,空間感不足,但今次只有2檯客人,我可以好休閒咁享受個午餐 我叫o左個set lunch 有"南瓜湯"..面飽仲係外脆內軟..讚main course係Beef tenderloin 好juicy (估唔到無因為係跟餐而質素下降,相對地係有用心去煮..好意外..讚again^_^) 最後食埋個甜品....呢餐lunch令我好滿意.

I am writing in complaint of the appalling attitude of the service waitress at the restaurant in Soho. Me and my friends made a reservation for table of 5 at the restaurant in Soho today (16July). The first impression was already so atrocious. We stepped into the restaurant and spoke in Cantonese that we have made a reservation and your waiter immediately barked in the most boorish tone “Can you speak English”.

I am writing in complaint of the appalling attitude of the service waitress at the restaurant in Soho. Me and my friends made a reservation for table of 5 at the restaurant in Soho today (16July). The first impression was already so atrocious. We stepped into the restaurant and spoke in Cantonese that we have made a reservation and your waiter immediately barked in the most boorish tone “Can you speak English”. I would have very much liked retorted that I have no idea Al Dente is so discriminating that it’s now the customer’s fault and responsibility to speak the language of the staff’s in the restaurant, and not rather it’s the restaurant's own staff’s responsibility to apologies for his inability to understand the local’s language. Should AL Dente liked discriminate all customers who are not Caucasian, do please put a sign at your restaurant that says “Only Caucasian is welcome” and we would GLADLY pick any other restaurant other than this.

We decided to let matter rest since it is our friend’s birthday and all but the customer services of both 2 waiter and 1 waitress is horrendous that I am compelled to pen this written complaint against them. During our meal, we told your waitress to leave the fork and spoons after our soup since we would like to be more environment friendly instead of changing utensils for every item, moreover we would like to be left alone in our private conversations instead of her hovering about it the simple dingy space between us. Yet your waitress was so fierce in her reply which was “I am just changing your table setting!” with the blackest scowl on her face.

When we asked for the bill, my boss gave your waiter his credit card. After processing the bill, the waiter simply threw the bill on our table, instead of presenting it to my boss. When my boss shouted at him that he is at the other end of the table not at the other end, the waiter has the cheek to snap back loudly “How am I supposed to know? Do you need to shout?!”

With this kind of customer service standard that Al Dente provides, I would firmly say that I will never make another reservation in that restaurant every again and would advise any and everyone I knows to do so too.
