Allora One Year Anniversary

A first year often feels like turning to a fresh page, filled with possibilities. Allora marks the milestone with an evening built around a four-course prix fixe inspired by the tastes and moments that defined its journey. Each course reflects where it began and where it is headed, presented in a setting designed for lingering. The experience is $95 per guest. Seating is limited and reservations are recommended.
