My boyfriend and I went for Valentine’s Day dinner Saturday evening. The server(Sue) was awesome. The valentine’s day menu was amazing. I had the veal Saltimbocca and he had a combo of that and crab stuffed shrimp, which I had a bite of and was delicious as well. The complimentary veal meatballs and garlic toast were awesome as was the cherry covered cheesecake that we shared. I love the intimate atmosphere — even when the restaurant got busy everything was muted(or perhaps it was just the company I was in lol) We had a beautiful dinner and will definitely return.

Ate at Allegro tonight and it was fabulous. The Veal Marsalis was the best ever and the ambiance(white table clothes) was really classy and made for a very memorable evening — especially for my wife’s birthday. For dessert try the tiramisu — it’s amazing. Service was the best you could want. Try Allegory — you won’t be disappointed.

Excellent family owned restaurant. Italian specialties include veal, pasta, eggplant etc. They serve the best filet I have ever eaten and is by far what I usually order. Service is excellent and very attentive. Ask for the kitchen salad made with their own dressing. There are several fish features depending on what is the freshest. Compliments of the chef are veal meatballs and toasted garlic bread. Full bar and plenty of parking spaces.

I love this restaurant. I’ve yet to have anything there that I didn’t like. Theirs is the chicken marsala upon which I base all others. The waitstaff is excellent, as well.

Have been going there for years but more often as of late… why…the cuisine has been consistent and the service has been sterling. We have been asking for the same waitress, her name is Valerie and she has proven herself time and time again. I always get the Veal Oscar and my wife orders the crab cakes. You will not be disappointed. Fantastic vodka martini by the way.

Pretty decent Italian-American fare, this is very much the nostalgic home cooking you can get at your nonna’s house. As such, I think it’s overpriced… but if you’re not Italian, you will probably disagree! The veal meatballs were the best thing on the menu by far! So juicy with a homemade red sauce that tasted strongly of bell pepper – very traditional! The creamy cheese ravioli were delicious as well, and I really liked their homemade Italian salad dressing. The mussels were so-so and I wasn’t a fan of their homemade spaghetti, which wasn’t chewy enough and had a texture similar to ramen(I know, weird). The portion sizes are massive, so share or come in a state of literal starvation. The service here is very warm and genuine. You can tell some of these people have been working here a long time, and the manager was walking around and talking to tables. Do yourself a favor – skip the Olive Garden and come here instead!

Great Italian. Very friendly. It’s like going home. they always handle the fresh fish well. It’s dependably good.

Didn’t actually taste the food. My boyfriend and I visited Altoona this weekend. We were seated but ignored. Another couple was seated about 20 – 25 minutes after us and were served immediately while we only had bread and water, which took about ten minutes to arrive.(They have a water/bread person) We felt like we were treated differently so we put our coats on and left. As we were leaving, the hostess did politely ask us to stay and blamed the situation on a seating problem. We were looking forward to trying the food because we heard it had decent food.

Definitely one of the most expensive restaurants in Altoona, but both times I’ve eaten here(luckily when I didn’t have to pay) I have been beyond satisfied with the meal and the service is exceptional. The feeling and décor of the restaurant definitely dates back about 30 years ago– but maintains the small-town feel that Altoona used to have before the malls and sheetz took over. The drive there says it all– off the main street, around curvy roads and in a small corner that driving by you may miss. But definitely make the effort to stop there for any special occasion. The Italian food is delicious and worth every penny.
