Restaurant Allegro: Reviews & Ratings
Nice place with really fancy decorations and good service. I ordered the chicken parmigiana with migneron cheese and it was DELICIOUS! Definitely will stop by again on my next visit to Charlevoix.
The experience at Allegro started off shakey. Took awhile for our party of 4 to get 4 cups of water (we had 2 for 40 minutes). They seem short staffed, but the waiter remained positive and friendly throughout the night. Duck Confit was served hot and very delicious served with lots of greens! Good sized portion, the right amount of fat, and very tasty. Salmon tartar was also great. Steak and Frites was good served on the side with their House Sauce. Steak itself was nothing to rave about but cooked exactly to my liking (med-rare). Fries crispy.
Nice restaurant with good house music, good atmosphere and friendly service. Seemed like it could have been a family run business as kids working there. Nice food, recommend.
Love that place! The service was great by Kathy who made sure everything was perfect! We had the chance to sit on the terrace and we enjoyed the view. Inside, the decor is stylish and we feel welcoming and relax. The food was delicious and there was plenty. The maple creme brulee was to die for!
Although it was busy, we did have a reservation and the service was good. They were out of the lamb shank (maybe order ahead next time), but the ribs and Cesar were good.
Great food and service with perfect portion size. Loved all the foods except the Ribs which was a bit dry and the potatoes were not seasoned properly.
Amazing dessert! The fondant cake with maple butter was so good! Their food is fresh and satisfying, and I really appreciate how patient and kind the server was with my halting French.
Nice atmosphere, excellent service, tasty food!
