Al's Upstairs Italian

I called to see if they would take reservations for 6. Al 's is a small dining room and I hadn 't recalled every seeing a table for six. The person I spoke with said she 'd have to check and see if they could do it and that she would call me back. She called back in about 5 minutes and said they could.

I seriously cannot rant and rave about this place enough after our dining experience here! It was the absolutely PERFECT place for a date night.

We started our date with a calamari appetizer, as they also brought out some complimentary fresh bread to the table with olive oil to dip. Then, my husband ordered the Pasta Alla Al I ordered their special of the evening as my meal, the Shrimp and Scallop Spinach Ravioli. I had a glass of wine with my meal and my husband had a glass of bourbon with his. All in all, we spent a little over $100 for the whole meal...

This was an absolute wonderful experience, I am beyond sad that they will be closing soon. My husband had told me about this restaurant and we finally went.

This was my first time here. With them closing I wanted to at least try the food. My friend had been in the past and raved about their sea bass dish. We had a great view by the window. I ordered the mushroom and truffle flat bread pizza and salad with candied pecan and blue cheese. The food was great.
