Pasta Al Forno Italian Restaurant

This restaurant is AWESOME!!!! We NEED to make sure this restaurant is a success. They are open for lunch & dinner. The menu is unbelievable! We haven't had a bad meal & are enjoying exploring their menu. Remember to save room for desserts. Their chocolate cake is unbelievable! This is an undiscovered dinning experience for Ames & those willing to drive for delicous food

Amazing, delicious pasta and so many choices. Yum!

I was really excited but the food overall lacked flavor. I was excited for the minestrone but that was not minestrone. The broth was more like water, had zero seasoning (did not see any dry herbs or garlic), and ended up with a crunchy noodle. Minestrone has beans but there was no beans in it. The pasta was a great serving but was bland and had no seasoning. The chicken looked like it was boiled- no seasoning or color to it and tasted rubbery. I would not return as I can make a much better meal.

The staff were excellent loved the decor as well. The food on the other hand was very bland but that may be because we are heavy seasoning people as well...portion to price was good as well. Probably won't go back because it didn't "wow" us but not bad either.
