Outstanding Italian food. Love the seafood dishes and the minestrone soup. Very helpful servers too

A very good Italian restaurant! My wife was craving Italian food, and after consulting Yelp, we decided on Aldo's Cafe. We had a great dinner here enjoying the delicious food. My wife tried the Lasagna ($23), which she found to be great. I was looking for a low-carb option (hard to do in an Italian restaurant). Our waiter recommended Involtini Melanzana (rolled eggplant) from the special menu ($24.50). This delicious dish had several rolls of eggplant around a great filling and covered with a wonderful sauce. (And no carbs!). Vegetables were included. The waiter served fresh grated Parmesan cheese for our entrees. The service was great and staff friendly and helpful. The walls of the restaurant are decorated with large photographs of Italy. We were seated next to one showing rooftops of old buildings that was fascinating to look at all the detail (and to see satellite dishes on top of old rooftops!).

Great service, great food, relaxing atmosphere. And the complementary bread - delicious! The Salmon Piccata is my go to.

We like this place. The parking is easy, the servers are attentive, it's quiet enough to have a conversation and hear each other. The food is good. The atmosphere is pleasant. Three of us went here for lunch and we were all happy. My two friends had pastas which looked good and I had the salmon which was very good. They brought a lovely dessert out for my friend's birthday. This is our second time here and we will be back.

Ate here one time -- lunch. Service was friendly enough, but my food was terrible. The $16 panini -- a chicken sandwich on heavy, dense, tough bread -- was bland and unpleasant. The chicken, unsalted or under salted, tasted of nothing. The boring salad that accompanied this was dressed with too much vinegar. I cannot recommend Aldo's and will not return.

Quaint location. If you want Aldo's but with less hustle and bustle, this is the place. Aldo's great food; relaxed atmosphere.

I had the bruschetta and penne al pesto - tube pasta with sausage and mushrooms in a pesto sauce. I didn't even realize how hungry I was until I realized I ate the entire plate of pasta! The food is nothing short of phenomenal. Highly recommend this spot.

Always fantastic. Eggplant rolatini light and not breaded. Beautiful salads. Seafood pasta is terrific. The staff is extremely polite and attentive.

I've been going here for years since I used to live in Campbell. It was well known that they have the best caesar salad in the LG area for a quick lunch/to go meal. I went back about two weeks ago with a friend and we had the pasta special which was a white wine sauce penne tomato pasta dish, and the recommended cab from our waiter. We had a great time - excellent prompt service, pastas were a perfect al dente, and the wine was great. Nothing to distract from catching up with a good friend. Highly recommend this spot for dinner or lunch! The caesar is still killer.

Nice, small, local Italian restaurant. Great service, good classic dishes. Seems to be a favorite for locals in Los Gatos.

My favorite spot for pasta!!! Met a friend here for lunch and was blown away by their pasta! Full of flavor, generous pasta and cheese portions and attentive service.
