    We were a four top on Christmas evening. We arrived on time for our 7 pm reservation. Check in was crowded but they quickly got us to our table. The staff was amazing, especially our server, Barr. He was informative, friendly and a great waiter. The food was fantastic, arrived quickly after ordering. We all agreed we would be back soon!

    ALLORA is a Must-Try! My family’s visit to ALLORA Italian Restaurant was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We started with appetizers that were out of this world—an amazing way to begin the meal. Our server, Laura, made the experience even better. She was friendly, attentive, and gave excellent recommendations. She truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The highlight of our meal was the fresh pasta. You could immediately tell it was made in-house—it was cooked to perfection and paired with rich, flavorful sauces and proteins. Every bite was incredible. The support staff also did a phenomenal job. They kept everything running smoothly, refilling drinks and clearing plates seamlessly. ALLORA is everything you’d want in an Italian restaurant: amazing food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I can’t wait to return and will definitely recommend it to friends. Highly recommend!
