Aldente is a WINNING Pick! – We found this amazing restaurant via a recent Citysearch review posting. I would argue a mark of an excellent italian restaurant is the execution of the simplest dish. The bottom line is Aldente Pasta makes extraordinary pasta dishes at a great price. I had the garlic and olive oil. Simply done with terrific taste all for $8.50. My sister had the,tomato, garlic and basil sauce with the right amount of spice and zing - another amazing pasta dish under $10! For dessert, our waitress recommend what ... read more

Needs better bread! – Nice restaurant away from the main hoopla of downtown. Cute outdoor seating area (although avoid the first table so you are not bothered by the fluorescent lights from their sign). The one thing my Italian husband uses to easily rate a restaurant is the bread. And unfortunately if we stopped there Aldente would have failed! I was surprised the bread wasn't better quality. And the vinegar they brought to dip the bread in wasn't the best either. OTHER THAN THAT everything was good. We ordered the mussel a... read more

A bit of Italy in Palm Springs – Being an afficionado of Italian food and a new resident of Palm Springs, I began my search for good local Italian food here. And I've not gone anywhere else. The service has been first rate and the food as good as I've had anywhere. The pasta has never been overdone, the sauces everything one could ask for. Why go anywhere else?!

Disappointed... – Al Dente has a great location off Palm Canyon. The atmosphere is OK. Nice, but small... almost cramped. The pesto pasta sauce was mediocre at best. The Alfredo was fair, as was the marinara. I hope there is better Italian in town...

Molto buono – This unpretentious, charming restaurant was a completly satisfying experience from my very first visit. The service is first rate and the spaghetti bolognese, my secret test of Italian restaurants, is as good as any I've had in Italy. The space is intimate, even a bit cramped, unless you are fortunate enough to be seated in one of the comfortable booths. I've become a regular and have found the pasta to always be fresh and delicious and the fish and meat dishes always up to par. If you've got room order the tir... read more
