    My wife and I had a wonderful belated Valentine’s Day dinner at Allora. The Polpo and Mussel starters were magnificent. Her entree of Waygu steak was very tender and flavorful. My scallops were excellent. Our waitress remembered us from previous visits and was friendly and knowledgeable of all the options on the menu. When the bar did not have the whiskey I requested they suggested a replacement that was a perfect substitute. The service , atmosphere and food were impeccable. A memorable experience.

    We went to Chevy's for their Valentine's Day Special. Needless to say it was busy. And our server was handling 5 tables and some had 10 people. And he did the best he could. There was a little bit of a wait for our order but it was delicious. I got the chicken/steak fajitas and my wife the surf and turf. And the owey gooey dessert. Plus it came with champagne. Ok not a high quality champagne but good. It was a little too loud for us. But overall we had a really nice experience. If you want real Mexican food go to El Noverillo or Carmalita's. But $60 for two you can't beat that.

    This was our first fine dining experience as a couple and the Valentine’s day menu was perfect! We got to take anything we didn’t eat home, and their champagne was delicious! We had a perfect night, and all of the staff was amazing to us. We’ll definitely be back!
