    Amazing! We planned for this dinner as we were looking forward to the Parmesan wheel pasta. Allegro exceeded our expectations! The ambiance, food and wine were excellent! Alessandro, our server, took such good care. The manager came by our table to show us pictures of the region and winery where our wine came from in Italy. I am still dreaming of the delicious pasta and silky cheese sauce. We will be back!

    The food was amazing. The tables were way too close together. It was hard to even get up and walk to the restroom. The noise was so loud you could barely hear the server, but she a great job. Overall it was pretty good.

    Our experience was amazing. The food was fantastic! The ravioli and short rib pasta were our favorites! I highly recommend. Also, the staff was very accommodating and professional. The restaurant was very busy and they did a great job staying on top of everything.

    Oysters were very good. Over all, quite average pasta and bread. Butter was rock hard.

    Made a reservation for galentines dinner in the lemon patio and had a great time! The lemon patio is so cute and there are heating lamps to help keep you warm. Our server Marco C and the other staff members were very attentive! Even the hostess (I didn’t get her name but she had a lot of tattoos) was so sweet and offered to take pictures of our group for us. The food was fantastic! Since it was happy hour we got a lot of appetizers… we tried the calamari, truffle fries, garlic knots, oysters, brussel sprouts, and cheese wheel pasta! Everything was so good. The only one I wasn’t a fan of was the garlic knots. For my entree I had the Bolognese and that was very tasty! For drinks I tried the aperol spritz and it was yummy! Made me feel like I was back in Italy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and come back!
