    My wife and I had a wonderful belated Valentine’s Day dinner at Allora. The Polpo and Mussel starters were magnificent. Her entree of Waygu steak was very tender and flavorful. My scallops were excellent. Our waitress remembered us from previous visits and was friendly and knowledgeable of all the options on the menu. When the bar did not have the whiskey I requested they suggested a replacement that was a perfect substitute. The service , atmosphere and food were impeccable. A memorable experience.

    This was our first fine dining experience as a couple and the Valentine’s day menu was perfect! We got to take anything we didn’t eat home, and their champagne was delicious! We had a perfect night, and all of the staff was amazing to us. We’ll definitely be back!

    We always coming here for a wonderful food experience. Last night the menu was really updated to a number of new dishes and we enjoyed everything that was served. A really fantastic restaurant experience. Can’t wait for the courtyard to re-open when the temperature allows! Thanks, David Dellinger

    The food was delicious. I had a great time I was able to move tables to a more secluded spot. It was just a little weird sitting across from someone and trying to eat but I was able to move thank you to the waitress. She was very sweet and hecka dope I forget her name so I feel bad I can’t add her on the review and give her good props. Thank you very much and I had a great time. :))))
