    Everything was outstanding EXCEPT, i will always demerit all restaurants that use the TOTALLY OFFENSIVE technique of bringing you the tab on the hand-held device where the server stands above you and the device suggests a tip of 20%, 22%, 25%, 30%. This is the single worst development in the food service industry in, perhaps ever.

    We love Allegro! Service is exceptional. Love the atmosphere. The food was really good except for my chicken entree. Usually it's excellent but last night it looked like the chef threw it on the plate. Very messy looking but tasted good.

    Super happy with this restaurant! The food was beyond amazing. Their Risotto Al Porcini E Tartufo was delicious and amazing to watch as it was stirred in a cheese wheel. The staff and owner of the restaurant were extremely friendly and constantly checked up on us. It can be a bit pricey but it is totally worth it. Highly recommend the Banfi Rosa Regale.

    Our appetizzer (griller octupos) was sublime. My main (carbonara) was under-seasoned and truly disappointing. And we booked an early meal (5:30) to try and avoid the Little Italy scene, only to find that by 6:00 we were in an alcove with two large and very, very, loud, groups. On the other hand, our server was terrific. And, in fairness, this is probably not all on Allegro, but rather reflects the vibe in Little Italy. We'll not be back.

    Hello Paula, we appreciate your thoughtful feedback. We are sorry to hear that the surrounding noise detracted from your meal, but we do hope to have the chance to serve you again in the future.

    We were greeted and seated right away in the beautiful patio area! Our waiter was so fun and personable! We started with some appetizers, tried 3 different pasta dishes and 2 desserts. All the food was excellent and beautifully presented. Unfortunately once our food came we didn’t have any wait service for a long time. We were half done eating when the waiter offered cheese for our pasta. He never asked if we wanted more drinks, we had to find someone else for that. Other than that we enjoyed our experience!

    Thank you for the thoughtful, kind review, Shana! We do apologize in the delay in drinks, but so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience at Allegro!
