Review Alo Cafe - Scottsdale

Came for the cornflake French toast and ended up with the monte cristo! Best decision. Very unique and tasty, huge portion! The only reason i didn’t rate 5 stars is the avo toast we ordered, while the flavors were good, the actual avo on the toast was pretty browned and the fruit bowl also looked a bit old and sad. But A+ for French toast and service :)

The Monte Cristo Sandwich is one of the best things I ever had for breakfast. I recommend adding an (overeasy) egg to each side. Also, great coffee and lovely service!

It’s worth the wait! Hand crafted bites & a small kitchen, start off with some cafe drinks while waiting! Had the corn flake French toast w/ hot fruit compote! 10/10! Service was great! All the way from the host greeting us to our server wishing us a great rest of your day, Alo Cafe has def made it to my list. Cute and tucked away right before Old Town, highly recommend! Be cautious, parking might be slim -just how the area is! Nothing to do with restaurant :)

Amazing brunch stop after a long day of travel. The cream cheese spread in the omelette was superb and the pastrami burrito a real stick-to-your-ribs meal. Service was also excellent. Would come back here any day!

I came to the Alo Cafe for Sunday brunch with my parents and am so glad we did! This quaint little Estonian cafe is tucked away in Old Town Scottsdale and definitely worth visiting if you are in the area. They have indoor and outdoor seating, but we decided to dine inside since they had a table ready. I got the 2 eggs over easy with house potatoes, white toast, and bacon. When I get a breakfast dish like this, I usually can't finish my potatoes since they are heavy and over plentiful. However, I cleaned my plate! The house potatoes had the perfect seasoning with a hint of sage, the bacon was cooked with just the right amount of crispy and chewy that I like. The mimosas are also a good compliment to the dish. Servers are also very friendly. They also have homemade jam I recommend getting for your toast. It's only 50 cents extra but totally worth it. Thank you Alo, I will be back the next time I am in Phoenix/Scottsdale!

Such a lovely find! Wasn’t too busy at all when we went and they were very accommodating to us and our one year old. The food was delicious as well, so I only have good things to say about this place!! Service: Incredible Food: Great! Price: Pleasantly happy with :)

Decent breakfast and service. Corned beef hash tasted good, a bit too salty. Eggs were great, veggies in omelette cooked just right. Hatch Chile was not spicy. 5/5 stars for the toast, yummy! We sat outside as sitting inside is not roomy for a person in a wheelchair. When trying to park, come in from the south.

I just had the best little breakfast at this very charming and quaint cafe in Old Town - Alo Cafe. I visited mid morning around 10am for a late breakfast. I sat on the patio, it reminded me of when I lived in Europe (maybe because I was sitting next to a group of Irish travelers 🤣). To start, I ordered a hot chaga latte which was amazing. It was just the perfect amount of spice and sweetness…it had a unique and playful flavor. For breakfast I ordered the Tortilla Espanola with aioli and romesco sauce. Even though everything is made fresh to order, I didn’t wait more than 10 minutes and the food was delicious! My server was super sweet, friendly and smiled when she spoke to me. She welcomed me in (as it was my first time dining there) and explained my questions about the menu thoroughly. She was knowledgeable and offered recommendations. All in all, a great dining experience! I would love to come again and sit on the patio for happy hour…I will definitely come back.

Good food and good service. I went here and ordered their corned beef hash and a latte. The server was courteous and attentive. Their latte used a good tasting bean, not too bitter like the largest commercial chain. They had a house curry ketchup I used with the corned beef hash which was pretty good.

My friends and I came here for a casual breakfast/brunch - staff was super friendly and accommodating with our dietary needs! LOVED the potatoes with the house curry ketchup - definitely recommend. We sat on the patio which was pleasant. Would have liked a slightly bigger portion size for the potatoes that came with my dish but everyone in our party enjoyed the experience.

Wonderful place for breakfast. French toast is slamming. A wait for your food but worth it.

Karen Kirkham Barben

Not happy, they just assumed I wanted my food to go, didn't even ask if I wanted to be seated. Then after I asked to be seated, they still brought my food in a to go container!! Way to make a new customer feel welcome. When I talked to the owner Steve, although he was nice, he tried to insinuate it was somehow my fault!! The food was good, but I won't be back.

Jessica Rose

Simply fantastic. This is the breakfast I’ve been looking for in Scottsdale. You must try this place. Plus, the coffee is outstanding.

This place is a treasure! Staff is amazing, food fantastic, and you just feel right at home! Tight fit, as they packed tables in for a good reason, yet SO worth it!!!! I will return! Great job!
