Welcome

On behalf of the employees of Al's Upstairs Italian Restaurant, we thank you for your interest in our establishment. Al's was founded in March 1979 with a very simple operating philosophy: provide the finest cuisine, impeccable service and atmosphere at the best possible prices, ensuring the finest value to our customers.

Our philosophy is that we are only as good as our last meal served. With this in mind, we strive daily to provide the finest product to our customers.

Voted Columbia's most romantic and best Italian restaurant in Columbia, Al's has become one of the most popular sites for engagements as well as Valentine's Day and other special occasions. This year we're celebrating our 34th anniversary in our 100-year-old building overlooking the Columbia skyline and Vista.

Please continue to browse our site for our menu selection and to find out more about our special restaurant amenities.
