    ALLORA: A Must-Try for Italian Food Lovers! I had the best dining experience at ALLORA From the moment I walked in, the vibe was just right—cozy but stylish, perfect for a date or even a chill dinner with friends. The service was top-notch too; the staff was super attentive without being overbearing. Now, onto the food—absolutely incredible. I started with the burrata, which was insanely fresh and creamy, paired with perfectly toasted bread. But the real star? The truffle pasta. It was rich, flavorful, and honestly, one of the best I’ve ever had. My friend got the 30 Foot Lungo Pasta with meatballs and meat sauce , and I had to steal a bite—so simple but so delicious! For dessert, we shared the tiramisu, and wow… it was light, fluffy, and the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal. And complimentary limoncello was amazing If you’re looking for a spot with great food, great service, and a great atmosphere, ALLORA is 100% worth checking out. I’m already planning my next visit!

    Wasn’t great, the restaurant was full with a rowdy Christmas crowd while I wanted to have a nice dinner with my mum for her birthday. Wrong place at the wrong time. The waiters were more interested in getting the Christmas tips from the regulars than serving us or even paying attention to us.

    Other than food tasting good, the service was awful. Haven’t had service this bad in a long time. Very non attentive. Had to stop anyone we could to attend to us. Took over 30 minutes to even clear our plates and they only did after I flagged someone down. After we asked someone for our check I noticed we were double charged for liquor we didn’t purchase. After I brought it to their attention , they apologized for the overcharge and told us a they were understaffed. Not sure what that had to do with the overcharge. The food was definitely not worth the poor service. Wouldn’t go back nor recommend .

    This restaurant shows potential, but our experience fell short, possibly due to an off night. Our reservation couldn’t be found, and the noise level was so overwhelming that having a conversation without shouting was impossible. A large party seemed to monopolize the staff’s attention, and one of us was seated on a folding plastic chair—an odd choice given the high price point. While the food was enjoyable, the service was lacking. Our main server appeared frustrated after the kitchen mistakenly prepared two soups instead of one. Unfortunately, the combination of noise, seating issues, and service left us feeling uncomfortable. While the food was good, the overall ambiance and experience don’t make me eager to return.

    We went there for breakfast with a friend and brought our toddler along. Generally going somewhere with a toddler can be stressful but not here! The staff is the loveliest ever and we enjoyed a relaxing meal while our toddler had a best time of her life thanks to the staff that were so kind to her. Toddler dreams coming true aside, the food was delicious and the ambiance quiet and relaxing - we got to catch us with our friend without worrying about having to tell to be heard or bump into other patrons.

    The food was hands down very delicious, for a Saturday it was a pretty quite night. The service was great and couldn’t have been more satisfied to be able to have a meal without yelling across the table to be heard.

    Small cozy place for a quite, high quality dining experience. I love Bistecca Fiorentina and have not eaten a better one in the continental US!!! I was truly surprised. Great appetizers, table side pasta was authentic. If not for English, I could have forgotten that I was in Midtown. Nol, the young man in charge of the floor was great! They sold out of the Fiorentinas when we came, but when I told him that I was looking forward to having it, he arranged for the steak to be delivered from their other location a few blocks away. Refreshing to experience this level of service in New York
