Traversing the classic and the creative, Allegra was voted 53rd best restaurant in the UK at the 2022 National Restaurant Awards and combines the very best in innovative, contemporary European cuisine, with a timelessness that celebrates the time-honoured traditions of service and hospitality. Fronted by Chef Patrick Powell, Allegra is located in the heart of Stratford on the 7th floor of Manhattan Loft Gardens, one of London’s most iconic buildings and also home to The Stratford hotel. The sentiment of excitement and glamour emanated by the restaurant effortlessly continues up at the bar and through onto the terrace, where guests can enjoy some of East London’s best cocktails alongside a snacks menu already widely revered across the neighbourhood and beyond.

    Lovely stylish decor. Above average service. Some amazing starters both presentation and taste wise. Mains and dessert were disappointing. The presentation of our fried fish was very disappointing. It resembled a supermarket battered rectangular fish steak. It tasted nice but it was not what was expected for the price. Pie was an extra £12 on the set lunch and it was quite small for two and nothing special. Tarte tatin very ordinary. It was an enjoyable lunch but didn’t match the overall cost as an experience.

    A great evening, food selection can be challenging if someone doesn't eat fish as alternative meat options are a little obscure. Veloute was poured/served into an ice cold bowl which made it luke warm

    A wonderful classy restaurant with an innovative menu and superb service. A big shout out to Bobby, Cherry, and Seyit who made our evening so enjoyable. We hade the tasting menu which was excellent and on par with the top Central London restaurants, but very good value at £85. The wine list is extensive with wines for all budgets and, again, reasonably priced compared to others. I got the sense that Allegra has a good culture with integrity and a social conscience.

    Allegra was a blissful experience. We went for the vegan menu, which is unfortunately not on their website so you'll have to call ahead and check with them if you want to know the detailed menu ahead of time. However, overall the service and ambience were both unmatched, and you also have access to the outside area on the 7th floor which had a decent view. Food was unique but definitely enjoyable, desserts were elite! Top tip: if you live within the Stratford area, you might be eligible for a 15% discount, so just be sure to bring some sort of proof of address and show your waiter ahead of them bringing the bill. Would definitely go again!

    First time I couldn't finish all the dishes. Was gonna happen one day I guess hahaha The confit lamb breast wasn't what I expected at all. It was too fatty (more like lamb belly) and just not to my taste, unfortunately. Buty friend Rachel really enjoyed it. The ribbon or whatever the cod was wrapped in to keep together was also left on my piece of fish. TINY gripe but place has been exceptional everytime I've been before. The tasters were sensational! Parfait, fish and then the mushroom tartlet 😋 Quail was exceptional also. The cod too with the seafood veloute. And LOVED all three desserts. Wine was also exceedingly good. The Furleigh Estate Rose is now a fav of mine and the Bolgheri, chosen for us by the ever impressive Sommelier (whos name I very rudely still do not know 🤦🏼‍♀️) was fabulous. Can't wait for my December visit 🥳

    Service was not very good. We constantly had to ask for even just water not to mention after purchasing a few wine bottles yet we sat there with empty glasses for a long time on many occasions. Disappointing that service was also already included. Given the lack of service we received should it have been discretionary we definitely would not have tipped as much as they already included. Food had some amazing dishes and some OK.
