First time eating here since they took over what use to be Gallos. Came during lunch and there were no other customers. Sat on the patio. Nice. Ordered a salad with salmon and a smash burger that came with fries. Both came out timely and both were very good! We really enjoyed our perfect lunch and service. Thank you Nizar! read more

Allora Kitchen Bar - Salad with salmon & smasburger with fries - Mediterranean Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Today, my credit card was taken by the server when I mistakenly left it on the table and significant charges were made to Popeyes, Chipotle, PayPal, and Domino's Pizza using a PoS online. I was notified by the bank that the card was being used physically in the vicinity of the restaurant, but my numbers had been placed into various online accounts. When I returned to notify the restaurant, I found the physical card had been placed in the register by the owner, but he would not address nor apologize to me for what happened. I called the police and the server threatened to kick me off the premise. He laughed and smirked and sat outside as I called the police. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The behavior was criminal and is sanctioned by the owners. read more

Went here last night not realizing that they bought out Gallo's on High, which was our go-to restaurant of choice. While it looked just like Gallo's but with a different name & new updated menu, it was not the top tier service we're used to. It was seat yourself and I think the owner was who "waited" on us, even though we sat at the bar. Ordered the fish sandwich while my friend ordered the hummus plate, asked for them to come out together but hers came first while it appeared they forgot all about me. Waited 20+ mins for my fish and at no point did the owner or bartender check in with us, offer us more drinks, etc, and in fact, we had to flag him down to ask where my food was. The fish was cold and fries edible. Not sure how this was their top menu item as I had better from a fast food joint. They did comp my meal, gave us a free glass of wine & desert, but charged us regular price for our 1st glass instead of the happy hour prices we expected and were told about and half way through the desert, found a hair on the place. GROSS to say the least. Maybe it was due to new management but staffing was off, who I think was the owner was running around the place, dropping food off, and our meals were mid at best. Sadly, we will not be back nor will I recommend this place to my friends. read more

The owners of Allora did an excellent job turning it from the previous place. My friend and I had the White Lace Salad with Locally sourced Mediterranean salad mix, toasted pistachio, shaved fennel, pear, red onion, parm tuile, vanilla bean white drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette. My friend enjoyed the Meatballs and I had the delicious Bolognese. Excellent service and wonderful Ambiance. I will be going back to Allora for dinner with my friend and second mother. read more

Such amazing lunch experience! Our server Chad was fantastic, great with lunch recommendations. Appetizers were Allora sautéed octopus and Greek salad- great starters! I will say the flavor profile and bread combination with the octopus was explosive! Entree was BPT pizza they forgot the pesto but overall it was still great! I loved it! The owner even stopped by numerous times and sent two desserts my way! So I got to try the Baklava and Crème Brûlée. From the phenomenal food to great service I'll certainly be back again SOON! Thanks read more

First time here. Cool looking bar. I would like to give a 3.75 actually. Service is slow. Food was good. Not great but good. I think if service was better it would bump up to 4. Worth checking out and hope they get better. May check out again. read more

My mom & I came here on mother's day and had the best experience! They did a special menu for the holiday and everything we ordered (burrata, mushroom gnocchi, & sea bass) was a hit! Food came out in a timely fashion & the cocktails were fabulous as well. Our server was on it & friendly. I will definitely be back. The owner, Nizar, was stopping by and talking to all the tables to make sure everything was going well which is always nice to see. I always love supporting new local businesses. read more

We went as a family of 5 and so we ordered many dishes. The shrimp appetizer was too spicy for the 6 year old and the sauce wasn't a hit for any of us. The bread wasn't warm but the oil and vinegar dip was good. The Greek salad was dry andthe salmon as a protein had no sear or seasoning. The fries were good. Hope this review helps! read more

Was a regular at gallos. Really wanted to like it. Feels like they haven't gotten things figured out. Staffing not right, order was a little off. Maybe people will like it, but not for me. I don't think I'll be back. read more
