Reviews:

Another side of Italian cuisine
Czech Business Weekly, 2007-06-04

The Italian cooking term al dente, meaning “to the tooth,” describes pasta cooked to retain some firmness, which is favored by some Italian food aficionados. The restaurant’s ambiance, however, instead of being slightly tough, is rather relaxed. The warm reception that greeted us on entry was characteristically Italian. The hum of animated conversations, the bustle of the waiters and their friendly service all contributed to create a favorable first impression.

Restaurant Review: Aldente / Alforno
Prague Spoon, 2008-03-03

Owned and run by Italian expatriates, this is a cosy, pleasantly kitschy neighborhood joint. The larger half of the restaurant, Aldente, serves pasta and meat dishes; its adjoining side, Alforno, does pizza. Both are warm and well-lit, the yellow walls and red and white checked tablecloths creating a homey Italian atmosphere.

But it doesn't take many visits to figure out that Aldente, for all its singsong service and cutesy charm, is frustratingly inconsistent. Pizza could be ordered in the Aldente side one week, but not the next. A plate of lamb chops (380 CZK) was tender and tasty on first try, but fatty and unappetizing the second time around. Pasta dishes were made either carefully or carelessly, depending on your luck.
