Located in Coligny Plaza directly across from the beach, Cafe Al Dente offers a welcoming spot for visitors to enjoy authentic New York–style Italian cuisine in Hilton Head. Family owned and operated, Cafe Al Dente serves classic favorites like Toasted Burrata Ravioli, Chicken Parmesan, and their signature Cavatelli Bolognese, all prepared with fresh ingredients and traditional techniques. The cozy dining room and outdoor patio create an inviting setting for a relaxed meal after a day by the beach.

The menu also features Burrata with Soppressata, and Italian Meatballs, along with a popular Happy Hour featuring signature cocktails and glasses of wine. Cafe Al Dente accommodates private parties and larger gatherings, and offers ready-to-eat hot family meals for four to six people, available within the hour or scheduled for pickup, an easy way to enjoy a full Italian dinner back at the beach house or at home.
