    Such a cute cozy spot in downtown. First time dining here here for brunch with my bestie and we enjoyed the food so much. I did make reservations so that was a plus since it got busy after 1130. Food was so delicious. I enjoyed the brisket benedict the most. Our server Brandon was so nice patient with us I truly appreciated his honesty and suggestions. Thank you!

    Alaro’s is one of our favorite restaurants. It was a special night and Annette the owner made it more special by taking the time to read my comment in OpenTable and accommodating my request. If you haven’t been there, I highly recommend you try it! Thank you Alaro!

    We've been having to many asian restaurants and we wanted to try something new. Saw the menu of Aioli Bodega Espanol and looked delish. It's a drive for us from Roseville but we had a free schedule. The food was good and reasonably priced. The service was effiicient and very nice ambiance. It felt like being in Spain.

    My wife and I are foodies and love trying new restaurants. We had Broadway tickets and decided to try frog and slim before the show… It was a great decision!  Our server, Alysha, was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely attentive. She truly enhanced our meal experience! We thoroughly enjoyed the hamburger and octopus that we ordered for our entrées. Additionally, we also had soup as an appetizer, which was also equally delicious. We met one of the owners, Slim, who was extremely humble and grateful for having us there… We truly felt appreciated. As we observed the restaurant, all the employees seemed happy and eager to help all guests…It was a great feeling. Although this was our first visit, it definitely will not be our last. We look forward to coming here again very soon.
