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, and authenticity.

To close the evening, we ordered both the creme brulee and the panna cotta. They were the perfect finish. The creme brulee had that delicate crack of caramelized sugar with a silky center, while the panna cotta was smooth, balanced, and light. Together, they brought the meal full circle in the most satisfying way.

I also want to compliment the owner Paolo, for remaining true to the spirit of Italian culture and honoring the Mediterranean heritage. Something as simple as having quality olive oil readily available at the table speaks volumes. It reflects pride, heritage, and attention to detail. It is those thoughtful touches that elevate a meal into an experience.

Overall, it was a wonderful evening. Great food, authentic atmosphere, and a reminder that when a place stays rooted in its identity, it shines. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

EDIT: The owner & manager are both so kind and earnestly welcomed us to return & have a reparative experience. We had a lovely experience, the service was stellar, the food & drinks were amazing, and they were very gracious and apologetic for our previous experience. We thoroughly enjoyed it this time and look forward to being back. Thank you!

Wife and I were very excited to try Allora. First we sat at the bar and had a drink, service started off strong as it was still pretty empty. First round of cocktails were amazing. Vibes, impeccable. Then we moved to a table and the place started to fill in. Only 2 servers for the whole place, and you could tell they were getting stressed. But they took their stress out on us, were short with my wife, telling her to basically hurry up her order because they had other places to be. They brought a bottle of port instead the Chianti and forgot our baguette. When we asked for it, they seemed annoyed with us. I even tried to empathize with one server about how stressful it must be, but they didn’t change their tune at all. It created a really tense atmosphere for what was meant to be a relaxing and beautiful dinner on our rare date night out. Really bummed because the design/decor were beautiful and transported us to Italy. And the Caesar salad was so fresh and delicious. Would have loved to order a red pasta dish but we were honestly afraid to have another bad encounter so we sped up to dessert then left, sadly with a bad taste in our mouths 🙁

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.

I will definitely be going back. I went for my birthday and it was perfect!! Our waiter was soooo awesome. He took pictures and my Polaroid pictures and made sure they looked good. It has a nice warm classy atmosphere. The food was delicious! I got the gnocchi and it was amazing. I also got the espresso martini and it was one of the better ones I’ve had! The crème brûlée and tiramisu are super good too. Personally I thought the meat and cheese board was kinda lacking, but truly that was my only picky complaint

I love cozy spots, and I stumbled upon this place while walking by. It’s a charming little Italian restaurant with a relaxed vibe and great food. I absolutely loved my Alfredo pasta, while my partner thought the short ribs were just okay. We also tried the potato and leek soup, which was quite nice. I had an Italian 75, and it was wonderful—definitely recommend it!

Really outstanding. Pasta is fresh and expertly prepared. Everything seemed particularly fresh. Not sure where they provision their charcuterie, but it was excellent. Even without booths, the atmosphere was good for quiet conversation. Service was attentive and friendly. This is an excellent restaurant that deserves its high ratings.
