Allegro Restaurant

Allegro is fancy Olive Garden, with about the same quality of food - everything is very average. Servings are large but there's not much flavor. We had a huge group, around 10 people, and we each got different things and I tried all of them and I can't say I was super impressed. If you like Olive Garden then Allegro will be just fine for you! Prices are pretty steep for what it is as well. Decor is outdated and looks tired and old. That is one thing Olive Garden has going for it: it was updated within the last few decades! Servers were all very nice and attentive!

The twice baked potato is awesome. They have some excellent food, just expensive. The feel in the establishment seems a little dated. The staff is extremely friendly. The food gets out quickly. Just plan on paying more than most establishments in Altoona.

Older place with decor etc - cozy bar when you walk in and some general dining room area and what looked like more secluded dining rooms for groups etc. We were sat at a booth in the dining room area. Nice area overall and the decor was older but just fine. My first issue would just be the comfort of the booth seats. Throughout the dinner I had to adjust myself bc my it was really uncomfortable - seats just need reframed bc the springs on the seats are shot. Upon recommendation, we ordered the veal balls - which come to the table complimentary anyway. The veal balls were really good - and the complimentary bread on the table was good as well. On top of that we ordered bruschetta as an appetizer. The bruschetta was good - just Italian bread slices with melted cheese and a roasted pepper on top. I wouldn't consider this bruschetta though the name was different in the menu. For an entree, I went with the usual chicken parmigiana which came with spaghetti and a salad. The house salad comes with a clear type Italian dressing which was really good. The spaghetti was al dente which I appreciated and the chicken was really good. For dessert I had the Italian creme cake - which was the standard type and was really good - though the coffee obviously wasn't a fresh pot.Good place, would recommend it here as an Italian option in the Altoona area.

Great food, atmosphere, and service. An overall excellent experience. The portions were just right, not the oversized meals you typically receive at Italian restaurants. Our waitress was very knowledgeable of the menu and options for substitute items if wanted. Food came out promptly and the temperature was perfect. We will definitely keep The Allegro on our list of best places to dine in Altoona.

I'm going to give this restaurant a three. I had orange roughy. I enjoyed it very much. I haven't been able to find it on any menu it a while.According to our friends, the pasta dishes they had were just OK. Nothing special. Ambience is average.This is a very average Italian restaurant.

Another 5 star restaurant in Altoona.They have fine Italian dinners as well as a nice varied menu with specials every evening. The fillet is consistently the finest you will ever have.... Hands down!!! I also enjoy their blackened tuna and of course the Italian dinners. Especially the veal ones. You can't go wrong here!!!!.full bar. Serving is excellent

Absolutely the best Italian food in town and the filet mignon anywhere.The kindest and most accommodating servers and a fun and inviting bar.

me and my wife celebrated our anniversary here and it was everything and more that I had hoped for. The service was fantastic and in just the right amount (servers were attentive but not overbearing). The food from the appetizers all the way to dessert were delicious and the filet mignon was arguably one of the best steaks I've ever had. The Allegro has a warm and inviting climate with wonderful people running the place. On top of the great food, people, and environment, the pricing and overall cost was spot on. You definitely get what you pay for. Definitely going back

Outdated menu and decor... probably haven't changed since 1960. We were just driving through this middle of nowhere town, so no expectations, yet it was disappointing. Five different main dishes all covered with same bland tomato sauce and mozzarella. Olive Garden looks better now.

The wasn't a long wait for a table or service and I was first pleased and taken by the quick service. But, moreover, was mistaken. The fast seating and quick service was because of the lack of taste in the food. Disgusted, revolting, I wanted to hurl when I saw the the food brought to me and tasting it was the conscience.
