    The food was large portion family style. My grilled octopus was tasty; my friend’s chicken parmigiana wasn’t at all. The arugula salad was large quantity but not baby arugula and the poached pear was bland, salad dressing was not flavorful either. What bother us was the restaurant has such wonderful space but was not taken care of. The plants are not watered and many are dead. The drink menu was unspecific — there are only the choice of wine by glass but no maker and Year of the wine, a taste was not offered. Once again, the portion was generous but we don’t know what we drank. Finally the waiter was not friendly and offered little help/information. He looked either overworked or didn’t want to be there. Overall, we are underwhelmed.

    I met my friend from Westchester here. Very convenient place to meet- there is plenty of parking. The restaurant is nicely appointed and spacious. You aren’t sitting on top of people. We were there at lunchtime and had years of catching up to do. The meal was well paced and were never rushed to leave. My friend and I split an Allora salad and arugula pizza. Both were fresh and delicious. Portions were large and had leftover to take home. Definitely worth the trip. I would return.

    Overall a very basic and underwhelming Saturday afternoon brunch. Many parties were going on so the restaurant seemed a bit overwhelmed and especially noisy, our table service was inattentive and the meal was good but not anything special.

    We usually eat on the patio but inclement weather necessitated indoor dining. Pleasantly surprised, spacious attractive room, attentive service and nice menu. Instead of entrees we ordered several appetizers and a glass of wine. The hot antipasto was outstanding.

    We usually have the same waiter and he was very attentive. Great time! The only thing that was weird is that there's usually dried cherries in the kale salad, but there weren't any this time. Not enough to complain about, but I do love that salad. Thanks!

    Was looking for someplace in an area that I don't know and came across this on Opentable. Proved to be a great spot that we will revisit when back in the area next. Very nice bright and stylish space. Service was very attentive, knowledgeable and responsive. Food was very fresh, flavorful and as described. Pizza's were a standout. While we didn't have any, the desserts that were going by to other tables looked huge and amazing - maybe on a future visit.

    Had not been to this Restaurant before. Upon entering the establishment we found it to be hard to communicate due to the loud music that was being played. We were fortunate that we were able to sit outside We were a party of 6 and all of us commented on the fact that had we not been able to sit outside we probably would have left as we had gone out to socialize not scream at one another. Food was good although we felt pricey. Service was on the slow side Overall we enjoyed our meal. Had we been forced to sit inside it would have been another story. They should cater to the needs of the clientele not the young management.
