Description:
Allora is an archetypical Continental/Italia restaurant purveying authentic Italian and Mediterranean cuisine with its own style and flair. Homemade pasta, bread and thin based pizza, veal and steak, seafood and poultry is served with Allora charm and often prepared in our wood burning oven.
The perfect blend of rustic and elegance, Allora is distinctly sophisticated, yet its village feel makes it lean away from being unduly pretentious. It's a bit like fine dining without the pomp and ceremony.
Whether it is a quiet romantic dinner, a get together for a small group of friends, or a corporate or family party, we will not disappoint. Private dining is also available.


Head chef: Philip Aplas

Signature dish: Agnello al Forno
Lamb shank slow cooked in our wood burning oven with cabarnet sauvignon, herbs and vegetables, served on a bed of home-made pasta or village style roast potatoes.

Great Expierence , 04 Jul 2011
Reviewer: Juanita Ayres (Adventurousness: What is the chef's special today?)

Comments: It was a pity that the restaurant was out of mushrooms when I wanted to order from your pasta menu but the delicious grilled calamari definitely made up for it as it was the first time at Allora.

Great value for money!, 03 Jan 2011
Reviewer: S.J Kelbrick (Adventurousness: I can't pronounce it, but i'll eat it!)

Comments: We had the Sunday 3-course lunch and the food was lip-smacking good! Staff was pleasant and always ready to lend a hand. Atmosphere was relaxed. The wine that was recommended was delicious. Will definitely recommend Allora to my family & friends!
