Allora

Had the antipasto, lasagna, Nebbiolo, and desert… spectacular food front to back! The lasagna was rich and flavorful, the antipasto perfectly sized and tasty, and both the brownie and the tiramisu were heavenly. Staff was spot on with the Lange Nebbiolo wine recommendation, and service was quick, friendly, and not overbearing. Definitely found our new spot for Italian in Portland.

Last night we had the opportunity to return to Allora. The last time I remember being there was during the Euro Cup in 2012, watching Italy compete, so it had certainly been a while. Walking back in felt like revisiting a memory, and the ambiance was just as delightful as we remembered. Warm lighting, inviting energy, and a space that feels both elegant and intimate. We started with the broccolini, which was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. We also ordered the gnocchi, tender and comforting in all the right ways. But the true highlight of the evening was the Gamberi e Pomodoraccio. The prawns were cooked to perfection, and the flavors came together in a way that felt intentional and harmonious, almost transporting us straight to the heart of Italy. Each bite carried depth, balance

The chicken parmigiana was absolutely delicious!! Would definitely recommend / come back for it. Good drinks / desserts as well; and the service was also really great.

I came here during a snowstorm. I was not expecting much but Ben (manager) and company still managed incredible service. Everyone was super friendly. I came here late and they didn’t mind firing up the grill late to get some food on a plate. I will definitely be coming back. The bar is nice and always has good company. The interior is stylish and makes you feel at home. Cannot recommend this place enough.
