    This place has the best flavors. I very dish is packed with well seasoned spices and freshness. The large format plates are great for the table. The rack of lamb was spectacular. Don’t miss the Turkish Rose wine either.

    My wife and I just ate at Alora celebrating our 38th wedding anniversary. It was the best meal experience we have had in a long time!! The staff was very friendly and took great care of us throughout the meal. Everything we had was presented beautifully, was balanced and flavorful and perfectly cooked! The muhammara, the flaming cheese and tenderloin shaslik were spectacular!! I really enjoyed my cocktail "Thr Grove of Tranquility “ Great experience!!

    Interesting menu and wine list. Nice service. We had the dolmas and the cheese and English Pea pasta. All very good. Someone at the table next to us had the shrimp skewer. They looked great. Would definitely return. We sat outside on the heated patio but the inside looked very nice.

    Our first time visiting Alora. Beautiful space that feels open yet cozy. I had the eggplant main which was delicious with a variety of flavors that balanced perfectly. My husband had the rabbit which was equally as delicious. Service excellent from all staff. We will be back!
