Visited here last night for a private event with a prix fixe menu. We were pleased with the variety of options, and everything we had was delicious. The New York Style calamari was really flavorful and had just the right amount of spice, and the steak was cooked perfectly to everyone’s liking. I thought that the deconstructed banana split was a really unique dessert, and I really enjoyed it! It features Doughwich’s ice cream sandwich and is a great way to support a local business. I hope to come back here soon and try more items from their menu!
My wife and I really enjoyed our dining experience here. The food is always excellent and consistent. The service was good and the drinks were also very good. My wife’s chocolate martini was delicious. Would we visit again? YES! I just wish we lived closer. Looking forward to next time.
Service was good. Food is great, prices are high but not outlandish. 4 stars instead of 5 due to not having a table that we reserved hours in advance ready until approximately 20-30 minutes after the reservation time.

Food was excellent. Tables are nicely spread out so you can have a conversation with your table-mates. Service was very good, but slow as the restaurant was slammed.
I looooove Cafe Allegre, and I can't believe I'm only now writing a review. We enjoyed their takeout during the shutdown often. Their chicken parm is the best comfort food in the entire world. I can also attest to the eggplant parm and the stuffed mushrooms. I have a hard time ordering anything else, but I'm sure it's just as good. I look forward to dining in soon.
Delicious food, great service, comfortable atmosphere. All for a reasonable price. I can't say enough good things. Thanks Rich and all the staff for the pleasant hospitality.
Food and service were good. No bussing staff showed up to work on this very busy Friday night, which had the entire staff doing double time. We waited over 20 minutes to be acknowledged or get water. But, during these crazy pandemic times, we understand the plight of restaurants trying to have enough staff and enough products. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The clear, sparkly outdoor lights provide a perfect outdoor dining experience.
