Alloro - North Hertfordshire

I regularly recommend this restaurant to friends and then realised I have never given a review. I have dined there many times over the years and have never received anything less than excellent service and wonderful food.

Service was faultless and friendly as usual here. Perfectly cooked Calamari to start, indulgent Rum Baba for dessert (specials board), and the absolute best Pizza in town inbetween washed down with a bottle of Italian Rose Who cares if it's not Italian weather outside when you can transport yourself to Napoli for lunch in Alloro

I visited the restaurant with my friends on Thursday evening. Though it was a bit busy, the service was quick and the stuff was mindful. I had swordfish as my main, which was absolutely delicious. Never tried this before and couldn't imagine it would be so good. My friends had a couple of ice-creams which were beautifully decorated and looked just excellent. I really enjoyed my meal. Would definitely come again! The restaurant atmosphere is quiet, letting you relax and enjoy your time spending. It's definitely worth visiting! 10000/100

This is a lovely restaurant where we enjoyed sitting outside in the early evening sunshine. We were one of the first tables but by the time we left, it was almost full. Overall, the service and food were good. The antipasti selection on the Affetato Misto was nice, and we especially enjoyed the garlic bread with cheese and caramelised onions. The Tagliatelle Gorgonzola was tasty, though a bit lacking in chicken. The Pollo Piccata was very enjoyable and came with "roast potatoes" (more like sautéed potatoes) instead of the usual fries, along with a side of green beans. All the food was well-cooked and had plenty of garlic flavor. The only downside was that the service fell short towards the end. Our mains were cleared, but we weren't offered any desserts and had to go inside to ask for the bill. It seemed like they may have been a bit busy and forgotten about us. Despite this, we would still consider returning in the future.

Came here after a recommendation from a friend and it was worth the visit. Excellent food, good value, generous portions, quick service and a nice atmosphere for a Thursday evening. They have a good selection of wine/drinks and all fairly priced. I'd definitely come back here without thinking about it. Would 100% choose this place over another well known Italian restaurant in town!
