    Outstanding service, delicious choices for dinner and a great experience for our family. We enjoyed the grouper, scallops and bavette with several exceptional sides. Our server Matt is always the best, taking excellent care of our needs. The Restuarant is beautifully decorated and the ambiance exceeds expectation. One must remember you are paying for excellent food and service.

    All great characteristics of a dining experience fold together at Allelo. Briefly, superbly prepared dishes and flavors guided by an engaged and customer focused staff with unique indoor and outdoor ambiances. No issues dining outside in December as abundant heaters keep the tables cozy. This was visit 3 and all were excellent .

    Amazing experience! We used to go at the bar to enjoy their sake cocktails - highly recommended! First time I ate there and I wasn’t disappointed with the delicious dishes! Very tasty, fresh, a great balance of savors, I really loved it! Ambiance is very chill vintage and cozy lights, all you need for a good time.

    Wonderful dinner where the experience held up to the great reviews. Ordered the pasta Bolognese and the Rigatoni entree, both were delicious. Pricing for meals were reasonable, cannot say the same for the wine at $20 for a 9 oz pour. Beer at $8 was fine and even better during happy hour at half price. Highly recommend the food, skip the wine.
