    Was seated in the bar area which was very loud for a midweek lunch. Next time I’ll be sure to request a table in the dining room.

    Went to dinner with my friend to celebrate my birthday. Started with the cheese board which is always wonderful. My friend had the shrimp bisque and I had the arugula salad; both are always great starters. For our entrees, I ordered the chicken parmigiana and my friend had the grilled scallops risotto, neither of us could finish our entrees. Service was great, and atmosphere was delightful. We will be back again!

    Mark, the owner, has nothing to worry about with Michelle B. and crew in complete control. Everything was Perfect. We started with the Allora Eggrolls and Poppie's Salad for apps. Then upon completion we were served our entrees with no rush like other restaurants do. I had my favorite, Veal San Marco with 3 veal tenders and crabmeat in delicious mushroom gravy. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Salmon Allora. Both were too much for one meal so we brought half home. We had to order their Creme Brulee' Cheesecake for dessert. Total Bill = $100. Not bad at all in today's market.
