Reviews
The mezze platter is something everyone should order when they come here. The platter had some of the best small bites I’ve had from any Mediterranean platter. The bruleed goat cheese and pickled veggies were some of the most memorable.
The gambas and Greek salad were very flavorful and after this point we were getting full, the tasting menu was a lot of food for 2 people. The moussaka was okay, not much lamb flavor as it was mainly pasta. The baklava cheesecake was insane, the phyllo dough on top was perfect with the soft cheesecake underneath.
Will definitely come back it was a great time. Best food we’ve had in st Pete.
Supporting Logic
• Price-to-Quality Disconnect: The “Add Chicken Shawarma” option is priced at $18.00—exactly 100% of the cost of the Mediterranean Plate ($18.00). For a side protein to cost as much as a full entree, the quality must be flawless.
• Substandard Protein: The chicken was fatty and gummy, consistent with cheap rib meat rather than premium breast meat. This is a material failure when charging premium prices.
• Drink Execution: The $15.00 Classic Espresso Martini was perfectly prepared, showing the bar maintains standards the kitchen does not.
• High-Level Service: Server Rachel D. was excellent, attentive, and provided accurate recommendations, which is the only factor preventing a total collapse.
Bottom Line
Do not recommend. The pricing is irrational when a single portion of low-grade chicken costs as much as a complete Mediterranean entree. Avoid Allelo until they align their ingredient quality with their “Beach Drive” pricing.
The beef tartare was simply exceptional: perfectly seasoned, incredibly fresh, and beautifully balanced in flavor, leaving you wanting more. The gambas al ajillo were an absolute delight — juicy, perfectly cooked, and infused with fragrant garlic oil that makes them truly irresistible.
Every dish we tried was impressive, but these two were definite standouts. We will absolutely be back, especially to enjoy the terrace and the outstanding quality of the food. Highly recommended!
The female bartender was pretty friendly and attentive, and the bar back (a male) was busy helping with table and silverware setup ~ both were good.
We ordered the Baby Gem Salad, Mussels in a delicious tomato sauce, and the Cocktail Shrimp, which were all fantastic.
The cocktails were unique and interestingly crafted. The espresso martini had an interesting twist ~ a subtle touch of amaro that gave it depth. The lemon drop martini was made with their house lemonade, which gave it a refreshing and slightly unexpected flavor. My friend ordered the Aperol Spritz and really enjoyed it too.
It was a bit loud inside, so next time I’ll definitely ask to sit outside, especially in this beautiful weather. The restaurant has a charming patio right on Beach Drive, a cozy bar area, and another smaller dining room to the right as you walk in.
The space is beautifully decorated, with a hand-painted mural of birds by a local artist. They even provided a list so guests can learn about each bird featured on the wall ~ a thoughtful touch!
I’m surprised it took me this long to visit, especially since I consider myself quite the foodie. Allelo has been open for 5 years, and after tonight, I can definitely say I’ll be back soon!
My friends and I ordered: Neuske Thick Cut Bacon, Ricotta Soft Scramble, Papas Bravas, Turkish Eggs, and Olive Oil Pancakes, with That’s Me Espresso (Espresso martinis) to drink. We could have ordered the family-style brunch, but decided we wanted more variety.
The seasonal pastries our server helped order were the stars of the brunch. It surprised us all, especially with how it was not too sweet.. just the perfect amount!
Will be back for the olive oil pancakes and deviled eggs, for sure!
