    Margarita Pizza. Yum!

    We tried the Margarita and I loved the basil drizzle which gave the pizza the perfect Margarita flavor. The crust is crispy, even on the bottom...in the best way. The venue is open air and super chill. You can try multiple eateries at one sitting which we did. There is live music. Service was simple. Order at the terminal and they text your phone when it's ready. On point! We will be back.

    The best pizza I've had anywhere.

    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.

    "margherita pizza"
    Joe M.

    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.

    Sausage Ravioli with Vodka Sauce

    Great food! I greatly enjoyed my experience at Al Dente and look forward to my next trip! The pizza was great as well (forgot to take a picture)

    Sausage and provolone boom!

    WOW got takeout tonight... the pizza bowled us over... we got the sausage and provolone. the flavors were amazing. this is now our go to pizza place hands down...yum... Updated an hour later... ok add the antipasto salad which explodes w amazing quality meat and sharp cheeses AND the bread is a great compliment.

    Gnocchi Bolognese

    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.

    Wonder lunch with in downtown Dunedin. We enjoyed walking around the town and stopped for lunch at…read moreAlfresco's. The staff is super nice, just really outgoing. We sat at the bar and watched the hustle and bustle in the kitchen/bar area. This is one of the few places that has a prep team and it shows. Food comes out amazing and very quickly.. We chose the Smashburger and a beet salad with blackened salmon. The dishes were amazing during our meal we saw an order of corn beef hash go by, so we added that to our meal. All three dishes were amazing. The dressing in the beet salad was awesome and the salmon cooked to perfection. The smash burger had all the trimming and some delicious sauce. We can't wait to come back sometime for breakfast and to dig into more of that wonderful corn beef hash.

    Context: I'm here in Dunedin to visit my sweet 88 yr old Mom and my dear Brother. Cafe Alfresco has…read morebeen their favorite restaurant for over a decade. My Brother lives in St Pete and takes our Mom to eat there or calls in for take-out at least 2-3 times per month. We arrived tonight (Thursday) around 7:45 PM to bypass the dinner rush. Walking in to be seated, I noticed several empty tables that had not yet been cleared with several people waiting outside to be seated. I was told "there will be at least a 10-15 minute wait, to give my name, and to wait outside." I thought maybe there were enough people waiting already to take up the empty tables, but that wasn't the case. We sat outside in the cold waiting and watching the guy stand at the bar doing nothing to help bus the empty tables, some of which were right by the window. After 15 minutes or more, we were finally called in last walking by the same uncleared tables, led to another table as the table cloth was being placed on it, no menus, no apology for the extra long (unnecessary) wait outside in the cold. When we finally placed our order, we waited some more. Finally our server said "there was a mix up and our order had not gone through." When Mom's favorite seared salmon finally arrived, it was dry and overcooked. I have never written a bad review on Yelp in my life. But, I hated to see my precious Mom & Brother treated this way. Loyal customers should not be taken for granted.
