Determiners modify a noun, not a verb. Some of them can be used as pronouns. The number (singular, plural) depends on the determiner.

Ruben'It all adds to the flavour'.
The subject is it. (singular) It all is an expression meaning "all of it" or everything.

All can be either singular or plural depending on the context.

All by itself can be singular. If it means "everything", it is singular. Most of the time it is plural.

Singular:

All (everything) is well.

All followed by a noun is plural:

All class members are going to the picnic.
All of the apples in the basket are fresh.

All birds have wings.
