A lovely, highly dog-friendly restaurant with outdoor (heated) patio and indoor (many small dog owners walked right in, pooches in arms) dining. Classic Italian fare, known for their veal. Competent seafood. Sauces are a bit bland and overly “mushy” (too much thickener and insufficient distinctive flavors) to make the food 5-star. Fried calamari was above average but still a bit chewy. The Antipasti Misto had too much cured meats and not enough veggies for my liking. Wish they continued to offer the toasted polenta (saw it in one of the menu photos). Spinach salad was good. Of the mains, the Lobster Ravioli was a bit fishy (tasted like defrosted seafood not fresh), the Scallopine alla Les (veal with brandy cream sauce) failed to let the brandy stand out in a smother of sauce – though the veal was very tender, as veal tend to be. The Specialita di Barbara (seafood on bed of salad) was very good. We had the Tiramisu & Vanilla Gelato. Both were very good and the combo was excellent. If I were to return, I’d lean in on seafood (but avoid any lobster), tomato sauces and salads. Would return just bc they’re so relaxed about dogs! Service was prompt and attentive despite the pre Mother’s Day crowd (place was packed).

Beautiful restaurant with wonderful homemade Italian food. Been coming here for years. Food is expensive but you are getting the finest quality of Italian food. Marvelous atmosphere; it’s the best you can find, truly.

Aldo’s has been one of the landmark Italian restaurants in the San Jose area for decades (similar in that way to Il Fornaio). They have a fantastic selection of food, fresh pasta and Gnocchi (I love the Bianca niece – aka Snow White gnocchi), veals fish and even a really tasty eggplant parmesan dish. The service is always great and the location feels open and spacious yet also inviting. They often have a number of specials so it is always a treat to try something new when you visit. The bar has many options so when you come here please expect a full dinner experience. Nowadays there are many great Italian options in the area, but this one has remained among my favorites.

It was our first time here and we were super impressed with the service. We came in about 30 minutes before closing and planned to order quickly, but once our server greeted us he made sure we did not feel rushed. He offered us an appetizer and told us the specials. He was extremely professional and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing and generous portions too, which was great because we were hungry after a long day out. We ordered desserts before they closed the kitchen, but he assured us not to rush and he would bring them out after we were done with dinner. We asked for the check when he brought the desserts, but he declined and told us to enjoy our sweet treats first. We felt so relieved not being rushed out. The tiramisu was the best I ever had. We don’t live in the area, but when we come back we will definitely be back to this place to eat and hopefully a little earlier next time

Spectacular service and food. I ordered the chicken parm…don’t think it’s on the menu, but it was surely tasty!! Great portion as well. The artichoke appetizer is a must of your looking for a fresh start to your meal. We also tried the eggplant roll appetizer, and the sauce was amazing. Definitely try this restaurant if you haven’t already! Aldo is fabulous and very personable. I feel like home when I eat at his restaurant. Thank you for the great experience, as always!
