    We requested the patio because we prefer at least SOME fresh air for health protection. They need more ventilation when the sides are closed.

    We really enjoyed the delicious food and cocktails. The platters with assorted dips and kebabs were perfect for our group of four to share. We also enjoyed the rice pilaf, cucumber salad and beet salad.

    Tried this place for the first time for a friend’s birthday and it did not disappoint! Service was great from the start. Met by a nice hostess immediately upon entering, were promptly seated and provided with water and menus. They even had a hand written card wishing my friend a happy birthday on the table. The waitress was fantastic and the food, excellent. Everything we ordered was prepped beautifully and so tasty. We agreed we will be back with our families and our friends! Thank you to the staff at Alora for a great experience!

    A really delightful place for lunch, cozy, warm ambiance. Menu selection varied, quality ingredients, and very flavorful dishes. Try the tahini hummus, muhammara and adana kebab - delicious! Staff members are attentive and patient. I'd definitely return.

    Food was overcooked and salty. Service was inattentive and mediocre. Heaters were blasting on a sunny and warm day and the staff refused to turn ours off. Overall - uninspired and dull.
