Have wanted to try this restaurant for a long time. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing a variety of flavors, colors, and textures. Surprisingly, the dishes incorporated a lot of Asian flavors paired with French techniques. Most of the dishes were excellent and unique, though there were a couple of misses. The service was good, with attentive staff. The ambiance was decent and comfortable, not suffocating or uncomfortable at all. Overall, I enjoyed my time and dinner here.

Tasting menu with wine pairing was incredible. My only complaint would be that I ordered the pescatarian tasting menu and had pork on my scallops (which I only realized after taking a bite). As a lifelong vegetarian/pescatarian, that was a bit of a shock. Otherwise, the food and service was exceptional! Would highly recommend Alo.
