Al Dente is a long-established spaghetti speciality restaurant in the basement of Shinjuku Center Building, drawing lunchtime queues for its authentic Italian pasta dishes since the 1960s.

Al Dente Shinjuku Center Building is a dedicated spaghetti restaurant located on the MB1F level of the Shinjuku Center Building in Nishi-Shinjuku, operating under the Giraud Restaurant System group. The restaurant has built a loyal following over decades for its authentic Italian pasta preparations, with a menu that reads like a textbook of Italian spaghetti classics. Its location in the basement of one of Nishi-Shinjuku's major office towers ensures a steady stream of salarymen at lunch and a more relaxed atmosphere in the evenings.

The menu is anchored by faithful renditions of spaghetti aglio e olio, bolognese, carbonara and an array of cream-based sauces, all cooked to a proper al dente texture. The kitchen takes its name seriously, and the pasta is consistently delivered with the firm bite that distinguishes competent Italian cooking from the overcooked norm. Portions are generous and prices are moderate, making it a reliable choice for a satisfying plate of pasta without the premium pricing of a full Italian restaurant.

Lunch hours run from 11:00 am to 9:30 pm on Monday to Saturday, with Sunday and holiday service until 8:00 pm, though last orders are 30 minutes before closing. The restaurant is a two-minute walk from Tochomae Station on the Oedo Line, and arriving before noon at lunch is advisable to avoid the queue that forms as office workers descend.
