We went here for the first time yesterday. The buffalo chicken pizza on wheat crust was decent, but could have used about 5 more minutes in the oven. They deem it 'NY style' pizza, but it definitely misses the mark there.
Since this place has been a handful of restaurants over the years, it was interesting to see the decor choice. It felt a bit sterile and it was far too bright for dinnertime. Turning off the uplit fluorescents and dimming the can lights would help.
It was Thirsty Thursday and $1 house wine is hard to beat...even if the wine was only mediocre at best.
I'd be willing to re-try Al's as the service was friendly and pretty expedient. Perhaps other menu choices are better. Having one of the best drink deals in town for a Thursday doesn't hurt either.
