Al Dente Ristorante Italiano has become Iloilo’s comfort food through the years. This Iloilo restaurant keeps bringing the best on your plate so it has become well-loved.
Al Dente Ristorante Italiano New Location
From their home for almost two decades, Al Dente Ristorante Italiano has moved to their new location at the Atria-Smallville area. It is relatively a new commercial development in Iloilo City with a bustling nightlife and interesting food choices.
Well-Loved Iloilo Restaurant
If you are thinking about Iloilo restaurants, almost always, you will surely remember one name — AL DENTE RISTORANTE ITALIANO. That is because for 18 years, Al Dente has served good old-time favorite Italian dishes to the people of Iloilo.
Through the years, they have developed new entries and their menu is very extensive, catering to probably every craving that you might have. And well, it also helped that I often heard their ad playing on the radio. That is some brand recall.
I remember way back in the 1990s, my first job is into production and we had events in Iloilo held at Sarabia Manor Hotel. My colleagues and I would often dine here. I would remember having their pasta almost always and I felt happy dining there.
A couple of years ago, when I traveled to Iloilo for an event at Sarabia, I also ate at Al Dente.
Yummy Food, Reasonable Prices
Al Dente now has a very nice and classy restaurant and the food is still superb, has big servings, and beautiful arrangements. And the prices remain very reasonable. They have a good selection of wines and beers, too. Plus, the staff is knowledgeable and friendly.
Where to Stay in Iloilo:
Our family had one meal each but we had to sample each other’s food because they all look scrumptious. And they are all so good. My tummy is growling as I am writing this, remembering our food experience there.
Check out the rest of our meal there.
Special mention to their pizzas with a very crunchy thin crust. We were talking for a long while already and there was still some pizza left. After like an hour or so, I still ate a slice of pizza and I was surprised that the crust was still crunchy. Of course, it was no longer hot but the crust is still surprisingly good.
Since this is her longest-running restaurant, Al Dente might as well be considered as the baby of Chef Pauline Banusing. The main kitchen and commissary are here at the restaurant and she takes prides is crafting customized catering services to her clients.
Moreover, she goes all out in catering, up to designing how the table would look like. And the results are Instagram-worthy–not run of the mill arrangements.
