I misread their steak. I wasn't made aware that I was meant to be paying for 2. I was under the impression that I was only to add an additional fee. Despite that, it was still a satisfying lunch in a cozy and chic atmosphere. There were only 5 customers altogether that lunch so it was a nice, quiet palate entertainment. Their outdoor dining area was just reopened that day so there was some ongoing maintenance happening. Unfortunately, the chef's tasting menu was only available for dinner service however, their lunch menu, being that it was at a reduced price, felt like I should've just gone straight to the chef's menu. Then, I wouldn't be able to misread the note on the steak. I did add some more on the appetisers with the staff member's recommendation and it complimented the lunch course. The pistachio choux and Allegra's fried chicken were my favourite and they weren't on the 3-course set. No gender neutral toilets

I recently chose the tasting menu at this restaurant, and it was excellent! The flavors of the fish and desserts were particularly delightful. At £58.00, the value for money was outstanding. The service, both friendly and professional, enhanced this memorable dining experience. I highly recommend it!

Decided to celebrate my birthday 🎉 in one of the best restaurants in London and I would like to say that I had the best time ever. Stunning restaurant with delicious food, friendly staff, beautiful terrace where you can enjoy the view and get lost in a beautiful garden. Thank you very much to the Allegra team to make me feel special. 💥💥💥🎉🥂

Good food and great wines. Some outstanding dishes that were of the highest quality ingredients and actually tasted great. No style over substance here. Only some minor points, the sharing steak was on the small side and the side dishes were equally small just not enough for two people and the price tag but all tasted great . The desserts were rather dull and didn't deliver much on flavour. Good wines. Definitely worth a visit.

So this is the first Michelin star restaurant that I've ever eaten at and I have to say all the hype is Greatly deserved. I was in heaven eating a crown of chicken with pork loin I can't remember the name of the sauce I just know I wanted more. The Brussels sprouts fried with Parmesan crisp was absolutely divine, the carrots with almonds on top amazing was fabulous, cubed potatoes was absolutely delicious, with a very good crunch. Oh and before I forget even though this is something I shouldn't really forget the dessert that I had I can't remember the name but it was absolutely delicious so delicate and full of flavor. The service was excellent really accident I don't have to come back here again You would have to beg me If anything If I wanted to be bougie and I wanted to be taken somewhere This would be one of the places that come first mind.

Had a wonderful meal here recently. The interior is beautiful, service is friendly and unhurried, and the menu is thoughtfully composed. We also had a birthday in our party which the restaurant took into account. The only points of improvement would be the cocktails (the ‘Nutcracker’ and ‘One More Time’ were a little underwhelming), and for a little more attention to the vegetable side dishes - the wedge salad was simply two large dressed wedges of lettuce. However these do not detract from a lovely experience overall, and I would not hesitate to both recommend and revisit.

I'm not sure why some reviewers call this a Michelin-starred restaurant because it isn't and, if you have eaten in any Michelin-starred restaurant you would know how far away from such an establishment Allegra is. We went on a Friday evening in August and were genuinely surprised at how few diners there were. We were seated promptly in a dining space which has a clean, modern feel, but somehow doesn't shake away the fact that it is an hotel restaurant. (Yes, I am completely aware that many of the three- Michelin starred restaurants ARE in hotels, but they also feel very different from the hotel, such as Alain DuCasse at The Dorchester.) Menus are just folded pieces of heavy paper, nothing special-looking or -feeling about them. Despite having a sommelier, we were not offered the wine list until we asked for it when the waiter came to take our order. This is the first restaurant at this price point (£220 for two) where we were not offered bread (that is a "snack" on the menu, and charged) nor an amuse bouche. Even my local pub now offers amuses bouche!! And whilst I don't like constant pouring by a sommelier, we spent most of the night filling our own glasses. Starters were small, but tasty. The oysters were good, but I have had better. The beef main (£75 for two) was good. In fact, my overall view of Allegra is just that - good, but I have had better.

The environment and the service were great. The lunch set menu is good value for money. The dishes take a surprising combination of ingredients but all taste very good, a bit too salty for me though.

Great place for a lunch, we went there on a Sunday it was not too busy. However, nice atmosphere with great view, with live music and really good food. (The only dish that we haven't really liked was the crab that for our opinion was too full of curry flavour so we couldn't really taste the delicate crab) Service was attentive but not intrusive with a marvelous selection of wines. We really enjoyed our experience, thank you for the great hospitality to all the Allegra team.

Excellent restaurant with nice views at Stratford. Great location and amazing place to have dinner. Food and service was amazing. I have been with my partner at this restaurant before lockdown and after lockdown re opened and we are not disappointed. Food still amazing! We have ordered starters having some oysters, the stake for two persons along with some sides and finally the dessert. Everything was delicious!

Allegra is worth a trip even if Stratford might be a bit out of your way. We were greeted by super friendly staff which did an amazing job throughout the night. The menu is seasonal and everything we had was bursting with flavours. I can definitely recommend the bread service which was simple yet still stunning as well as the roasted quail. Can’t wait to be back!

Outstanding meal and exceptional value every time I visit this restaurant. The food, drinks and atmosphere are all top notch. We enjoyed fantastic set menu that allowed us to taste so many aspects of the overall menu which was great! We had lovely and unique wine pairings provided by the sommelier too. If you’re coming from west I recommend catching the Elizabeth line or fast train from Kings Cross - you can get there very quickly!

Allegra All of our previous visits to Allegra have been on a sunday so we thought it was about time to try the Tasting Menu which looks incredible value for money when you consider the quality we know they produce. So on Saturday lunchtime we did just that. After walking through the shopping centre you head to the Stratford Hotel and the oasis that is the seventh floor. Here you will find peace and tranquility and a fabulous way to spend an afternoon. We arrived on Saturday via their private lift on the ground floor which takes you straight to the restaurant. We were given a fabulous warm welcome before being escorted to our table. Now we could relax with the anticipation of great food , wine and service that we know Allegra provides. A complimentary glass of bubbles arrived from sommelier Seyit to welcome us back. The tasting menu was already on the table and consisted ten courses including snacks and petit fours for the amazing price of just £62. Even if you added the two supplement courses it would still be under one hundred pounds. Now on to the menu which started with a fantastic selection of Snacks. These were the Beef Tartare , green peppercorn and watercress tarts , Hazelnut and Onion gougeres , Focaccia with tomato , basil and parmesan from the menu. They also treated us to a couple of their classics in the Pistachio Choux buns and the Waldorf Tarts. We now needed some wine to pair with the majority of the menu and from their Bin End wine list sommelier Seyit recommended a Valdespino 2020 Palomino from Spain that was an absolute delight. Our first starter course was the Beetroot , winter leaves , blackberries and pecan a very interesting combination of flavours that worked together beautifully. This was followed be the second starter a heavenly Bouillabaisse with hake , mussels , fennel , croutons and basil. This led us to the supplemented Roasted Scallop with pickled celery , champagne and caviar which was literally one of the best scallop dishes I’ve ever tasted. Next to arrive was the Barbecued Monkfish with carrot , lardo , ginger and shellfish sauce that was simply a triumph. Now it was time for the main course and fantastic it was to . The Confit Lamb Breast with purple sprouting broccoli and anchovy dressing was delicious. We decided having tried it before not to have the second supplemented course of Parker House Rolls which I would definitely recommend. This meant it was now time for the amazing pastry chef Kelly to work her magic and she did not let us down in the slightest. We started with the pre dessert of Sour Cherry , buttermilk ice cream and olive oil before moving on to a dessert feast. Firstly from the menu a fabulous Rhubarb and Vanilla Tart. This was accompanied by two extra dishes newly created by Kelly. The Cherry and Chocolate Tart was a delight and the Orange and Caramel Mille Feuille was an absolute dream. We finished with a coffee and petit fours to bring to an end to a fantastic afternoon. The food was amazing , desserts were stunning , the wine was fabulous and the service was first class. When you consider that this tasting menu with one additional supplement dish was a mere £81 then it really was an exceptional dining experience. I would without doubt recommend a visit to Allegra and for one are looking forward to many more visits in the future. Ten Course Tasting Menu (including snacks and petit fours) £62 Value for money i think is outstanding Thank You to the chefs , Kelly , Seyit , Palumi and all the team for an amazing afternoon and look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Amazing gem of a place we had the tasting menu which was fantastic value for money, Chef Elliott explained what things were really delicious and tasty

Food vs price is fantastic. We did the tasting menu and you should do that for dinner. Many fun dishes with well thought out flavours. Wine list is decent and fairly priced. The room is nice feels slightly hotel ish, lack of identity. Our meal took 3 hours 45 which is too long. Service on desert real fell off and took to long we had to ask where dishes were, which was disappointing. Service was ok - not bad just ok. Staff are pleasant, no confidence around the dining experience.

Great atmosphere and view! We had the tasting menu and we were so happy. Food full of taste, portions size were great and to complete thw experience we had a nice view from our table. I definitely recommend you to go for dinner and then enjoy a cocktail by the terrace.

Wonderful meal and outstanding service - special call out to the sommelier and the very accommodating restaurant manager! Thank you guys, you made my birthday celebration special and we will be back!

An incredible venue where the cuisine and ambiance lull you into an intellectual experience you'll never forget. From beginning to end is a sophisticated journey of culinary immersion and skill. I can't wait to return!

This is a really nice restaurant, great interior and very friendly and helpful staff. The food was very well presented, and mostly tasty. I did feel some of it lacked a punch. Perhaps slight lack of seasoning. The breads and butter were delicious. I really enjoyed the beef tartare, it was great quality beef and some well balanced flavours. The whipped cod with crisps was a tad bland. The chicory dish was very bitter, not enough grapes to balance it out. I had the lamb which was nice but slightly boring. The potato rosti was delicious, perhaps the most flavoursome dish of the meal. The desserts were slight underwhelming. The chocolate one was a bit rich and the ice cream didn’t have enough sharpness to cut through. The Apple baba was nice, but perhaps not sweet enough.

An interesting place. Next to Stratford international, with a rooftop and a view. It takes you out of the crowd and makes you relax. The food is descent with some explorative flavors. If you are in the area, it’s worth dropping by.

A mordern decor restaurant with fine dining experience. Shout out to our pleasant waiter Patrick you were attentive and thanks for recommending the tasting menu. It's 4* because the bathroom needs to be refreshed regularly.

We went to Allegra last night for their trial menu which comes at a reduced price. The food was too notch, really rate it and for the discounted price seemed a bargain, considering the number of courses and skilled cookery. Photos show the menu and my two favourite dishes; hisbi cabbage with prawn and scallop. Then the ox cheek that had a creamy polenta with hidden duxelle underneath - beautiful stuff. All staff were really friendly and up for a chat which was nice and if felt casual. Only critique is the wine pairing seemed to not be of an as high standard or to offer the same value as the food. Glasses were small (I appreciate this is normally the case) and also generally not very expensive bottles (although delicious and we'll paired). Oh one more thing my girlfriend mentioned that nobody offered her or the other guest who did not do the wine pairing any other drinks when they finished. The restaurant was very busy though so probably down to that. Next time we would just get a couple of bottles.

We had the tasting menu and paired wines. I would rate the food above its price point. I believe smaller pours but higher quality of wines would elevate and justify this upsell. The service was obviously led with passion, was not quite on point yet, several easily avoidable mistakes were made. Overall we very much enjoyed our evening.

My boyfriend and I sat down before 9pm (1 hour before they close). Server didn’t notice us until 5 minutes after. She looked surprised and came to us, asked if we had any question to which I replied no. I ordered my drink and tried to order the tasting menu (last order has to be in before 9:15pm) I didn’t realized about all of the supplements so I felt like I needed another minute. The server insisted we order right away since the kitchen needs the order, I was taken back by that since it was only 9:03pm (yes I checked). She rushed us and definitely made us felt unwelcome, looking at her watch and insisted that we order right away. We should have left, I don’t know why we stayed after that! She was cold and short for the rest of the service. I work in fine dining so I know patrons are not paying for the food, they’re paying for the service when dining in restaurants like this. We had to ask an other server for the bill and an other guy checked us out. Just a weird place and the food was nothing special. My chicken tasted like it could have been served on an airplane. This was our last meal in London after 6 days and definitely the worst service!!
