We have eaten at all the “best” downtown restaurants and only one is worthy of repeating again and again. . . Cafe Al Dente serves chef prepared food in a pleasant space, gentle ambience, calm wait persons, excellent food and SURPRISE! the prices are about the same as a so-so Portland spot. We have enjoyed the pasta, the fish, the duck – we do not eat red meat so cannot comment on the meat eaters menu but cannot imagine it would be less well prepared. Care in preparation and quality food makes al Dente the only Italian restaurant in the Portland/Vancouver area we have recommended to friends.
We normally just have the house salad which comes with the meal but for an extra $2. or so one can add this salad prepared with nice size greens, maple crusted almonds, sweet pears and a spectacular vinaigrette
. It is also available by itself. I’ve ordered it both ways. The house salad is also excellent, by the way – served with house vinaigrette. I just had it with a fine linguini/chicken meal that was all juicy white chicken and delicate sauce. YUM!
