Every item ordered was disappointing. Its also expensive. The seating on the patio - while charming with lemons hanging from the ceiling, was super uncomfortable. The bench seating forces one to sit uncomfortably, erect. Great for posture, but not great for dining. The food. Unimpressive. We ordered the zucchini blossoms and calamari to start - super underwhelming. Then pastas - duck ragu pappardelle, orecchiette y salsiccia, and gnocchi caccio y pepe. All were over salted yet lacked flavor. Two pastas were almost (I'm sad t... read more

The food at Allegro was delicious but a little overpriced. We have been to other restaurants that are owned by this family and have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. What stood out the most about places like RustiCucina was the service and how friendly everyone was. The true essence of a family-owned restaurant was evident from the beginning. At Allegro, it was the exact opposite. For most of our meal, there were only two other parties being served. As mentioned, the food tasted great but we had to hunt down our waiter, who was ... read more

It was our last day in San Diego and we wanted a special night out. We were seated in the lemon patio and it was cute with an arbor of lemons above. However that’s where our positive experience ended. We sat there for 25 minutes with our menus and wine lists we got from the host. However, not a single person greeted us after we were seated nor were we even approached at our table. It’s like we were invisible. We were totally ignored even though servers and waiters passed by our table over and over again. We decided to just w... read more

This was our first visit. Our server was great. However the food was mediocre and it took forever to get our main course. Papparadelle sauce was watery and tasteless. The zucchini flowers were fried with a thick crust which took away from the flavor of the vegetable. With so many other choices of places to eat in Little Italy we won’t be returning to Allegro.

Waited over 30 mins past our reservation. Host asked us our info multiple times , could not seat us . We got to our table and the tables were combined and different levels so it was hard for our group . My drink didn’t taste good and the server has no other recommendations.

The service is horrible. Will not go back again. I’m not sure what their concept is but the servers there prefer to attend bigger tables and make them priority for I guess bigger tips. Food took an hour and a half. We waited like 45 min to order our food. They checked on us twice literally the entire time there. Do not recommend

This place is nice, food was good, drinks were even better. Major disappointment was that I made a reservation for inside and instead they tried seating my boyfriend and I way far outside and on the street. I reminded the host that I booked for an inside table and then he said all he could give me was a small cocktail table to eat dinner at. Kinda rude and unprofessional and he really gave this place a bad name for a first impression. I probably won’t return.
