Allora in Huntsville

Food , Service and Atmosphere. Full 5 Stars !! Food

The food here is amazing! Weve been a few times, once during our honeymoon, and they graciously served us prosecco on the house! The meatballs, funghi pasta, and lemon meringue cheesecake are our favourites. We have found the inside of the restaurant a titch too loud for our taste, but we very much enjoyed the patio

Not much to choose from menu...nice interior and staff polite.

Average in my opinion, for pasta dish with fragments of meat, the serving was small. Not a lot of choices for main dish.

Great little restaurant in Huntsville. Great atmosphere, wonderful service and excellent Italian food.

Lovely local place to get some great Italian food! I had the gnocchi, my sister had the carbonara and my mom had the ragu. We all enjoyed our meals and would return in a heart beat! The staff were great as well, pleasant and attentive! Dietary restrictions: They have some non-alcoholic liquor so you are still able to enjoy a few of the cocktails with a 0% option!

Best Coffee and Baileys and Cookies in Huntsville.

Amazing and authentic!

Excellent all around! Definitely be back

Always a pleasure. Food is great. Worth a visit.

Honestly, was surprised. Not sure what my expectations were, but overall great experience. It s definitely a restaurant that caters to cottagers, but the vibes were nice beautifully done decor and mellow ambiance. The servers are all very attentive, kind, and knowledgeable with great recommendations. If you go get the Hawaiian pizza! Who knew pine nuts and pineapple mixed well. Dietary restrictions: All dishes offered gluten free alternatives.

Worst pizza ever, limp,greasy,not cooked, large crust witn minimum toppings, over priced for small pizza, OVER PRICED, $17 for a 5 oz glass of mediocre wine, go elsewhere, not good experience, could not eat raw cold pizza, pizza scores 0 on a 1 to 10 scale,complained but did nothing

Very small restaurant but ambiance was amazing. Not many options for main course. Food was average. Service was excellent. Must make reservations, walk ins will be disappointed.

Always amazing food and service

The best pizza in Huntsville, maybe in Ontario. Blown away.

The food is TOP, not everything quite Italian, but excellent by Canada standards. (And that means something when an Italian expert says it)

October 9, 2024: I visited Allora while on vacation with my out of town family, hoping to enjoy some wood fired pizza on a dreary October evening. While the ambiance seemed pleasant enough, we were completely ignored for over ten minutes before finally being greeted at the host station. At that point we were told that unless we had a reservation we could not be seated. We left and thankfully were able to be seated quickly (after waiting mere moments) at the Family Place restaurant down the road, which I highly recommend for the welcoming staff and delicious comfort food. October 21, 2024 - my response to the owners feedback (see below): I never imagined having to respond via my own review, but felt I had to clear up a few erroneous assumptions / statements made by the owner. My hope is that the owner does in fact take my review seriously and learns from the feedback. As a first point of correction, we did in fact experience the restaurants service, as service begins the moment one enters a restaurant - this is truly restaurant management 101. Any frustration we felt was not due to having to wait to be seated, but due to being completely ignored for over 10 minutes by multiple staff members that passed within feet of our party without extending a greeting of any kind (there were no additional parties waiting ahead of us). We did not expect to be seated immediately, as we were well aware of our walk-in status, not having a reservation. At no point during that 10 minute wait were we spoken to, nor was it clearly outlined that all remaining tables were reserved. If that had been done promptly, upon entering the restaurant (which would take no more than a few moments, even at peak service - the restaurant was not full at the time with at least 4 empty tables) we would have simply left with no issue. The first interaction happened after 10 minutes, at which point we were asked if we had a reservation, and told that unless we had a reservation we would not be seated that night. We politely declined having the staff member book us a table for the following evening as we had already made plans and were only in town for 2 nights. Attempts were not coarsely rebuked, rather we were simply unable to accommodate alternate options. To state that the staff does everything we can to accommodate both walk-ins and reservations was not evident, at least during our visit. As another point of correction, one of my many meters of a good restaurant is the ability to promptly engage with a walk-in party, not how quickly said party is seated. Upon entering a busy restaurant my expectation is that it will take some time to be seated, not that Ill have to wait to establish if that is even possible. If the restaurant faired best by turning away customers, then I suggest that the owners revisit their business strategy. Finally, I would never penalize a restaurant, family owned or otherwise, for being busy - that is absolutely a desired outcome of any business. Im simply calling out poor reception and now add to that, the arrogant and rudely sarcastic nature of the owners response, which is unfortunately in line with other review responses they have already posted.

Great spot. Nice staff. Pesto pizza was my highlight.

Got the best salad and the hot honey pizza and a gin cocktail. All 3 were mediocre. Not a bad restaurant and good for Huntsville but I certainly don t get the 5 star reviews. None of our pizza toppings stayed on when transferring our slices to our plates.

Nature in its most beautiful form, for trekking and for everyone else too.

The best pasta we have eaten outside of Italy! Incredibly well-balanced taste, perfectly al dente homemade pasta. We will definitely visit the place again when we are back in Huntsville.

This place is incredible. The bruschetta is the best Ive ever had. And the lemon meringue cheesecake is out of this world. Service was great, very helpful with recommendations as it was the 1st time for a lot of our group of 10. 100% recommend Food

Great food. Great service. Lovely ambience. Dietary restrictions: Very knowledgeable and allergy friendly (we took an egg free child) Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating to kids. We took a 2 and 3yo and their dishes were simple and delicious.

Walked in for a table of 3. Was told around a 30 minute wait. Put my name and phone number down to be called when a table inside or outside was free. Waited 30 mins with no call so decided to wait inside for a bit. Continued to sit for 15-20mins. I do understand the restaurant was busy. However was never acknowledged when standing behind 2 pairs of people. An employee sat the 2 pairs of people who didn t have a reservation by splitting a table of 4 into 2. Then said employee who sat those 2 pairs. Didn t say anything to me not even I will be with you in a moment . Waited another 5 minutes and then someone came up to me and said they now don t know how long it would be, after already waiting over 45 mins at this point. Would have just been nice to be acknowledged and not ignored after people in front of me were seated. Was very excited to try this place out for the first time but I won t be dining here at all.

We ordered the Margarita Pizza and it was extremely thin and undercooked. The cheese was only placed in the middle. And to add insult to injury they wouldnt even cut it you have to cut it yourself.Really!

no vodka, though LCBO is open again - and right down the street. no carpaccio. patio heaters but patio was still too cold. one hour wait for (very good) pizza.

My boyfriend and I came here for our anniversary a couple months ago. Since then, I dream about their pizzas/ lemon meringue cheesecake. Everything we ve tried since discovering it has been amazing ! I was fortunate to enjoy a great dinner here yesterday with my sister. They recommend having a reservation because they fill up quick , but we were lucky they had open space . Please remember to be kind to your server / hostess if they re fully booked and do not have room for you. Our server was amazing , very friendly and accommodating ! The food was outstanding as per usual. Highly recommend , can t wait to visit again!

Our 3rd or 4th time to Allora. Food, atmosphere and service are excellent. This time, we had our 2 grandsons along as well. No kids menues but we were told that a pasta with a simple sauce or a basic pizza was $15 for kids. My 4 year old grandson ordered a plain pizza with mushrooms and olives. He also had a Shirley Temple. Food was great. Bill arrives, $29 for a pizza, $3 upcharge for mushrooms, $2 upcharge for olives and $5.50 for tye Shirly Temple. Total plus tax and tip $51.33. Bit much for a kids meal. Although he did love the pizza. Kid-friendliness: Kids pricing is almost non-existant.

Must have been an off night. We were really looking forward to this dinner after reading the reviews. The restaurant itself was tastefully decorated and had a simple elegance to it. It took over 10 minutes to be greeted at the entrance and another 10 to be seated despite a reservation. The Caesar salad was mediocre .go try the one at Main Street Kitchen. The carbonara was gritty and over done. The pappardelle ragu which was described as the most meat forward dish by our server had 0 meat in it. That would be $34 for pasta and tomato sauce. The only good food was the Caprese salad and the meatballs. Service was very slow and average. We decided to cut out losses and have dessert and coffee elsewhere. Perhaps the owner wasn t there that day and they were short staffed because our experience was quite different from the one of several recent reviewers.

Very good pasta and pizza! Nice outdoor patio, wui overlooks the main street. Particularly attentive waitress.

I came here for dinner on a Wednesday night with a group of 9. We didn t have reservations but the staff was very nice and accommodating they were able to seat us within a few minutes. The food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is 5/5. Would definitely recommend this place for an authentic Italian meal.

First time going. Very nice place. Busy on Wednesday night shows that this is the place for great pizza and pasta. It was very good and our server was outstanding so friendly for sure will come back next time in the area

Waited more than 10 minutes despite reservation

We were at Allora last night and I had the best pizza since we were in Naples, Italy! Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Top marks!!

Beautiful restaurant, we loved the live music and ambiance! The food was good, but very overpriced for the portions. Pizza was soggy, service mediocre. The patio was busy so the server didnt check in much. I wouldnt recommend or hurry back.

We had an amazing meal on the patio. The patio was really busy but our server, Madison, was amazing.. highly recommend.

Worst customer service

Best pizza in Huntsville!

Nice place in terms of ambiance, but the food was pretty terrible. My wife and I ordered a margarita and a la carne pizza. When the pizza arrived, it was a greasy mess. No crunch on the pizza, just very soggy. Definitely not worth the price tag.

Loved the wood fire pizza. It reminded us of the pizza we ate on our trip to Napoli!

Food is great, staff is great, location is great! A real gem in Huntsville! Food

We had a fantastic evening out over the long weekend! Making a reservation online was smooth and effortless. The staff was kind, attentive, and set a perfect pace for the service. The food was exceptional! We ended up ordering: Fire Roasted Olives, Margherita Pizza, and a Spaghetti alla Carbonara. We decided to finish the meal with locally made gelato. Couldn t have asked for a better meal. An absolute gem in the heart of Huntsville! We look forward to returning as soon as possible!

Food is tasty and freshly made, but on the salty side. Restaurant decorations are beautiful. Would recommend for a proper Italian experience when in town.

great restaurant, the food did not disappoint. had ragu pappardelle, caprese salad, and the Hawaiian Verde pizza. gelato for dessert. would come back again. the patio was perfect for a summer evening. Food

Best pizza and pasta in town!

Very disappointed!! We came up from the city to celebrate my daughters sweet 16th birthday! We have been here many times prior, and always enjoyed the food and service. Today was different, the server was rude and was rushing us to flip the table. I told her it was a special occasion today, my daughters 16th birthday and she brushed it off. Also 2 other birthdays were going on at the same time, but she catered to them more and was ignorant to us. When I asked her to bring out a small cake with a candle for my daughter, she completely ignored us. To top it off she insisted we finish our dinner quickly because there was another party coming in after us, who had made reservations for 7:30. She brought us the bill without even asking me, I said I wasnt finished I needed time to digest, she apologized and said shed be back. I would have gotten desert but I felt rushed and definitely wasnt worth the $200.00 I spent on pasta, meatballs and bruschetta, for a table of 4 people.

We ate incredibly well! The bruschetta, pizza and pasta were fabulous. A big recommendation!

We went out to Allora for our anniversary while we were visiting Huntsville. Its a well designed, lovely restaurant with a variety of seating options depending on party size. The menu wasnt huge but had enough options for us as well as a seasonal summer menu that we had some items off of that were absolutely delicious. Our server Madison was lovely, not overbearing but always made sure we had what we needed and checked on our food/drinks consistently to ensure quality. Everything we had was delicious, from our cocktails, to the appetizers, our pastas (carbonara as a summer special and the parpadalle ragu ) and the seasonal summer strawberry dessert which was absolutely delightful. The menu is well thought out and the chefs absolutely delivered a perfect meal. Highly recommend.

Delicious food and cocktails. Servers are very friendly and items were delivered quickly. Great experience everytime!

Great food, great service! All around a good experience. Amazing pizza Food

The food was fresh and delicious, we were served by Madison and it was a pleasure. The brushetta was excellent

First time at this restaurant hosted by friends. The food is prepared from original recipes on site. Service was wonderful and attentive. The red wine was superb but not too costly.

We came here once when this place was newly opened. We were not surprised by the food that time. Recently our friends recommended us to try one more time since the menu has been changed quite bit. We tried today and we are really happy about the food!! Compare to last time, several pasta dishes are available. Pasta dough is much tastier and ingredients are fresher. Would come back regularly!!

Best restaurant in Muskoka. Without a doubt.

As soon as you walk in the doors to Allora you get the impression that something good is going on here. You see high ceilings, beautiful lighting, a sparkling bar, fire in the tiled pizza oven in the open kitchen and hard wood stacked against the far wall. When one looks closer the story gets better. I spied the bags of Caputo flour, DOP Dan Marzano tomatoes, and Durham Semolina flour near the woodpile which are all crucial ingredients for Vero Pizza Napoletana (a designation for exactly how to make proper Naples style pizza) and house-made pasta. This place screams attention to details which promise that you re in for a treat. But does it deliver on that promise? You bet it does. The night we were there, Nick, the owner was faithfully working the pizza oven, managing the fire and artfully encrusting each pizza with perfect blistered charring. The pizza itself had the perfect amount of sweet tomatoes sauce and milky mozzarella. It was truly one of the best Naples style pizzas I have had in a decade, outside of Italy. You wouldn t think much could be said about a mixed greens salad. But again, the attention to detail here was on point. Most of the time when you think of a good salad you think of the dressing. Allora shows you that is the deft selection of greens that make for a great salad experience. The dressing was light. The combination of greens was delicious. The pastas, a carbonara and an all Amantriciana we re delicious. The carbonara was done right. You could see there was a soft yellow colour to the sauce which means a whole egg was used. Carbona or (miners pasta) is made with a bit of pork jowl (guanciale), pecorino romano cheese, a whole egg, and a bit of pasta water. It s an ild recipe based on miners who would make this meal. Many restaurants either add more egg yolks or omit them. Can you imagine a miner discarding any part of an egg? No way. Whole eggs. Either one or two depending on the amount of sauce you re going for. This pasta had the right idea. Finally, the desert. Usually, great chefs aren t great at making desserts. Not in this case. We ordered both the chocolate cake and the lemon meringue cheese cake. Seriously, forget your mom s cakes. These are the best two deserts I ve had at a restaurant in years. Simple. Delicious. Perfect. Nick puts gold leaf on the chocolate cake for extra flair. Details. Details. Details. I could go on. But I will spare you. Just know this. Allora is the real deal. It is certainly made Huntsville a regular destination for me know. The community is very fortunate to have this place. Congratulations. I can t wait to return.

Recommended by our host at Joie Muskoka. Beautiful space made for cozy gatherings. The service was spot on, we had a group of 7 of us. Highly recommend the ricotta gnocchi, roasted beet and goat cheese salad, and Parpadelle Ragu. The pizza was delcious we ordered the Funghi and La Zucca.

Everything here is super good !

Great spot. Yeah, pricey, but worth it. Very tasty food!

Allora is a true gem of a restaurant. The chef, food, service, cocktails and atmosphere are all 5 Please keep the beignet dessert!!! Absolutely scrumptious! Food

Great service and food. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Huntsville area.

I was really impressed by the food, especially the dessert! The atmosphere was beautiful as well, very romantic and cozy. You don t usually find places like this in small towns, but it was definitely a hidden gem! We went back a second night because we loved it so much!

This is the best in Huntsville. The Atmosphere, service and food is amazing! Glutin free options available. The best Espresso Martinis. Cant say enough. Dietary restrictions: Glutin free

Best restaurant in Huntsville. Between the Great atmosphere, great food, drinks and service, its always hard to decide what to get.

Great place to dine, although l wish they would bring back the carbonara pasta dish, it was the best!

One of the nicest restaurants in Huntsville. Great Italian food, mostly pizza, pasta, and apps. Real wood fired pizza oven.

Everything was wonderful! the food is amazing! Very beautiful place

Called to make a reservation and had to give a credit card upfront on the phone! Rude and said we would be then charged 30 dollars if we do not show up! So we did not go there.

My husband and I visited Allora Huntsville and were pleasantly surprised by the delicious food! My husband is Italian and has high standards for Italian restaurants and Allora easily met them. We ordered the carbonara pizza, papardelle al ragu, and the mushroom gnocchi in a cream sauce. Everything was spiced well and the pasta was al dente. The pizza crust was delicious. We also enjoyed our cocktails: The Willow and a strawberry Moscow mule. 100% would recommend. Great food, fantastic service, and a moody and chic ambiance.

This is definitely among my top Italian restaurants! We had made a dinner reservation and service was really good. They helped with wine recommendations and even let us taste a couple to help us choose our preferred wine. We ordered a couple of appetizers and mains, everything was good. My best mains were red sauce pasta and gnocchi.

How is there this good of a restaurant so far in the bush? Some of the best Italian I ve eaten (recently visited Italy)

Amazing experience - restaurant is really cute for a date night. Cocktails were DELICIOUS, we had their special cranberry cocktail and allora sour (the best sour we ve had in a really long time). Food was phenomenal, ordered the dough as an appetizer (so chewy and crispy at the same time), Ragu paperdelle (SO delicious, the short rib was so tender) and the special sundried tomato pesto pasta (full of flavour). Service was also amazing ! Highly recommend :)

Excellent Service - Madison is one of the best server we have encounter, everything was on cue; from ordering drinks, our entrée and getting our bill. Great Atmosphere (perfect spacing between tables). Highly recommended!!

Such a chill vibe and great food and service. The wine selection is also a bonus! Thanks Alex for guiding us through the culinary experience!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free friendly Food

What a lovely place. Wonderful atmosphere, great service, fabulous food. Will go back as soon as possible. Cant wait.

We went to Allora tonight based on all the outstanding reviews. We found the pizza to be quite lacking. The sauce was runny (the pizza was wet). The prosciutto on my pizza wasn t even warm. The drinks were very over priced ($10 for a local craft beer and $15 for a mixed drink). The wait staff seemed disorganized, although to be fair, they said they were short staffed. But for a restaurant with fewer than 20 tables and three waitresses, they seemed like they should be adequately staffed. They two guys in the kitchen didn t seem to be particularly rushed as they spent quite a bit of the hour that we were in the restaurant talking to each other as they waited for pizza to cook. Considering the restaurant serves appetizers and pizza, I would expect it to be much better.. for $140 meal for two people (two drinks each and no dessert), I expect at least a little more .

Delicious Pizza

Very close to being a great restaurant! Right on main St. Huntsville, this place serves up really good pizza and drinks for a pretty reasonable price. The people who recommended the bruschetta with the added whipped ricotta cheese were 100% spot on! Order this as you will definitely enjoy it. Fresh, sweet tomatoes and a nice creamy base on top of a crispy focaccia. Yum! The beef carpaccio was pretty good, but probably would skip it. Satisfied my beef craving though. For pizza, highly highly recommend the roasted squash pizza! Its completely different from most pizza youve had and adds this creaminess and richness to the pizza without being heavy. The pancetta and cheese on top is a perfect pairing. You might need to order 2 Drink-wise, they have tons of cocktail and wine options and I personally opted for an old fashioned which was made pretty well. Overall, great food and drinks and apparently theres even plans to introduce fresh pasta! However, bring patience as they were definitely short staffed at the time we went. 2 servers for the entire full-house on a Saturday meant that service was spread really thin. Larger tables monopolized their time and while they tried hard to keep up, things were generally slower until they can staff up ( understanding that the industry as a whole is facing some tough labour shortages).

This restaurant is one of the reasons I moved to Huntsville! You always get a quality thin crust pizza here and all their desserts are made in house or purchased locally. Highly recommend!

This was the most AMAZING dining experience ever! Despite the restaurant being nearly full, our server, Allison, was not only extremely friendly, she showed incredible knowledge and initiative in being able to accommodate both a vegan and non-vegan diner with excellent suggestions and substitutions (the restaurant offers vegan options.) Our food--the homemade tomato soup, fire-roasted olives, and wood-fired Margherita pizza--rivaled that of any Italian community Ive ever dined at. And the prices were extremely reasonable! We live nowhere near Huntsville but have already made plans for another night away just so that we can dine at Allora again and try a few different things off of their menu! Dietary restrictions: Adjusted dishes to accommodate both a vegan and non-vegan diner.

Top marks all around! Everything is fantastic, couldnt possibly pick a favourite..

This place is fantastic.

Didnt eat here , waited 15 mins to be seated and the prices were real high so we walked out

Love this place. Great food and service. Cool vibe. Jay is the best bartender in muskoka!

Best wine/cognac selection in Muskoka!

Loved our pizzas and tomato soup. Great atmosphere. Alex was a great server. Highly recommend.

Perfection. Seriously. This place is fantastic. The dough? OMG. The pizza? Divine. The salad? Fresh and crisp. The wine? Tasty and reasonable. Desert? The mousse is to die for. I dont know what to say. I normally have a criticism, but tonight, Im speechless. Oh yeah... Service great too. Perfect.

Highly recommend. Most authentic pizza I have ever tasted. Staff were amazing and made us feel very welcome. Could not do enough for us. Even made us an extra pizza as one was slightly undercooked. This was not a huge problem but they would not hear of it. They did everything to make sure we left happy. Extremely rare nowadays to get that kind of service.

Allora is our new favorite restaurant in Huntsville! The atmosphere is wonderful, the food is amazing, the drinks are delicious and their staff are all super friendly.

I have been to Allora 3 times now, and every single time its been 5*. The service is always impeccable and friendly, the atmosphere is classy and unpretentious, but above all the food has been the real star. Each of the 4 different pizzas Ive had was nothing short of delicious, true Neapolitan style. Incredibly tasty tomato sauce, fresh toppings and an amazing flavourful crust. Last time around I tried a couple of bites from the new Carbonara Pasta and it was very very good too. Saucy, delicate and cooked to perfection. Everything combined, its one of my favourite restaurants ever, and I make sure to pass by every time Im in the Muskokas.

Great Italian pizza, amazing Croust. Nice atmosphere and very professional staff. A must-visit if you are in Hunstville Dietary restrictions: I wish they had HALAL meat on the menu Kid-friendliness: They need to add more choices for the little ones

Best meal we have had in Muskoka to date. High quality food, great service, nice atmosphere and pricing is great once factoring in the food quality. Can t wait to return!

Greatest experience the chefs and staff were truly amazing they are all interactive,fun,comforting, knowledgeable and you can tell they all love working there and made us feel like we are at home with our family. The food WOW (i dont even know what to say) I can barely move now but everything we tried was to die for. If there was heaven on earth its 100% at @allora.muskoka Chef Nick provided us with samples off there menu (tasters) everyone of them on point. Couldnt ask for anything else truly amazing. I have dine all over the country and this restaurant was o e of my favorite finds to date. Best experience ever I will be back 100% Thank you to everyone at Allora for making myself and Carlys date night one for the record books SEE YOU SOON

We had the most fabulous meals-pasta and risotto cooked to perfection! Friendly atmosphere and our server Allison was amazing. Well definitely be back!

Best ravioli, the pizza was good. We were not huge fans of the bruschetta. Food

The menu is lovely; the space is beautiful, but very loud; the service is terrific! But tonight our food, although beautiful and otherwise tasty, was really over-salted the beet salad, the meatballs, and the pasta. The risotto was perfect! Food

From host to serves to vibe to food - what a beautiful experience and AMAZING food!

Delicious authentic Neapolitan pizza! Also had the caprese and fire roasted olives. Lovely patio.

Very good service and good

A gem. Finally we found an excellent restaurant in Huntsville! The food met our expectations with a good ceasar, perfectly cooked and delicious mushroom pizza, the best carbonara we ate in Canada AND incredible deserts. That s rare! Being able to eat something tasty, not too expensive while having attentive service (thanks Madison). Will become our go to when visiting. I m just disappointed this restaurant is far from home

Amazing Italian dining experience.

Incredible

This is the second time the stuff showed us that this restaurant is not kids friendly! The first time they were rude with our kids and the second time they saw us with a baby and said they were full even tho they clearly were not!! The food however is always great, unfortunately we did not have a chance to enjoy it this time.

Our server talked to our 6 and 8 year olds like young adults. Good portions. Decent wine choices. When we are in Huntsville, I would easily make this a dinner option. Kid-friendliness: My kids loved the carpaccio.

Excellent! The pizza is phenomenal and just recently tried the Pappardelle Ragu. It was divine and the homemade pappardelle was so fresh. I have only ate on the terrace but inside looks lovely and likely more intimate. I would not waste your time at That Little Place By The Lights.. this is the only place to eat Italian in Huntsville.

Pizza like in Italy (wood oven, Neapolitan cooking). If you miss home come by. Well done!

Despite reservation the table wasnt ready on time and we had to wait 15 minutes. The waiting personnel is severely understaffed and had to sprint between tables all evening long. This is quite frankly not a welcoming scene for the guests and impacts the quality of service. However the food really lifted our spirit. It is absolutely delicious. Pappardelle ragu is the end of the world. So were ravioli. The portion sizes are very small though for pasta dish leaving room for desert.

Fantastic food and ambience. This is now our go-to when in Huntsville for upscale dining. Far more reasonable than 3 guys and better food. Location on the main strip is great for after-dinner stroll along the waterfront and grabbing drinks at the docks. Highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: Shellfish allergy friendly

The waitresses were really sweet and the food was amazing

So so good! Highly recommend. Started with a pizza, had the carbonara as my main, and finished with the tiramisu. I like my crust a bit more well done, but I know thats a preference thing. The pasta was a tad dry but still delicious. But wow, one of the best tiramisus Ive ever had! My friend had one of the salads, also had a pizza, and finished with the lemon cheesecake. She loved the salad, also commented on her pizza being more well done for next time, and absolutely loved her dessert! As well, our waitress was sweet. She checked in but not too much which was nice. Our table was pretty wobbley but we couldnt move as the place was full; not the greatest but not the worst quality of tables. Overall, next time Im in Huntsville, Ill definitely be back!

I had read some reviews before going there and I was expecting to try a good wood-oven pizza. I was blown away, it exceeded my expectations by far. The soft light crust and thin pizza slices that I had to take with 2 hands because it was so thin, the fresh ingredients and everything made from scratch...it reminded me sooooo much of how they make the traditional pizza in Naples, Italy ! As soon as I had the first bite, it brought back memories and nostalgia. Thank you so much for this great experience Nick and Jesse

Amazing Italian restaurant with an awesome vibe and even better food!! Took us right back to Italy

Amazing service, amazing atmosphere (we ate outside by the fires) and honestly just impressive staff. Hands down best pizza and terimissu Ive ever had. Absolutely would recommend

Every time we eat here we are impressed. The food, the drinks, the staff and service, the atmosphere; everything is always on point. Needless to say I was excited as always, to take my partner there for our date night last night. Usually, when I do anything in life I try to temper my expectations, but going into Allora my expectations are always high. Last night my expectations were blown away, the wine, food and service were FANTASTIC, 10/10. I have never had a better meal in Muskoka, and it s hard to think of a better meal then that I ve had from ANY restaurant I ve been to around the globe. Blown away, Nick and the team are ROCKSTARS

What can I say, the Best pizza restaurant Ive been in (including in Italy)! Pizzas were delicious, made with fresh ingredients, baked in a wood oven and served by a great staff. The owners are a young couple that have done their research in making top quality pizza. When youre dining at their restaurant, you can see that nothing is short-handed: from the beautiful interior and the comfort of dining tables and chairs, to the selection and freshness of ingredients, to the staff that works in impeccably organized spaces and extremely clean kitchen. The whole vibe is relax - enjoy - make memories. Yes, on the pricier side but completely worth it! This has become our must-go every time we visit the area!

the pizza smelled bad and also upset my stomach 4 hr later, the price is high for the quailty of pizza

Authentic Italian food in Muskoka. The wood fire oven pizza was fantastic. We ordered the carbornara pizza off of the special menu... sooo good!

The food was ok, not impressive or memorable. Good service though. Food

The atmosphere is beautiful, the presentation is amazing and the servers are all so sweet! I typically go with a girlfriend or two and we will split the Bruschetta, Meatballs and a Lemon Meringue Cheesecake. ...Love the Ragu as well. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quaint and elevated experience.

Great atmosphere and very good food. High prices, but worth it. You only live once.

A warm and inviting atmosphere mixed with terrific food adds up to an incredible experience. We tried pizza, pasta and desserts all were top notch!

Tonight was our first visit as we rarely eat out. This experience has made us decide that we will eat out more often! The Service: we were greeted and seated and served by a delightful young woman who had the most engaging smile. She ingratiated us with suggestions, recommendations, and personal input which helped us decide what we wanted to order. Footnote: I was seated facing the kitchen. The staff work hard, always with a smile on their face. The Menu: So many choices! Obviously we must return to taste more. Next visit will be Gnocchi. We chose the meatball appetizer, the pepperoni pizza, Greek salad, complemented with red wine for her and a craft beer for him. For dessert, Tiramisu with two spoons, espresso coffee for him, decaf for her. We are not big eaters.....but it was all eaten! That should say it all. The Cost: $150.54, tax and tip included.

Vibe is 10/10. Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free bread! Food : 5/5 |

Absolutely love this place. Amazing food, great service. Love the new menu as well. Food

Probably the best restaurant in Huntsville!

Ordered 4 different vegetarian pizzas and we loved them all. The waitress in particular was the standout, as she was the nicest, providing recommendations on anything, and was quick to ensure that we were never short of water on our table once we requested it (small touches, but probably what made our experience incredible). Will be recommending this to every friend traveling near Huntsville!

Incredibly good pizza in an elegant venue with excellent service. I didnt think I could enjoy such good pizza outside of Italy. Highly recommended.

Good food

Easily one of the best restaurants in Muskoka! Even if you take your food to-go, they put extra special care to ensure its retained quality (cooled my pizza to avoid ruined crust from an hour drive, 5 min reheat). Ola was friendly and knowledgeable, they incorporate local ingredients, and i would literally write home about that pizza if i was away. We cant wait to go back again (soon)

They have the best authentic Italian pizza in the Muskoka area. Period

Was very impressed and extremely happy with my over all visit...atmosphere was quiet and the food is excellent..the bartender, jay was his name was very friendly and knew his drinks..overall give this place a 10 outta 10..will definitely be visiting again

Everything here is top notch. The pizza rivals the major players in Toronto, such as Queen Margarita. Great atmosphere too. THE place to go for dinner in Huntsville.

Fantastic!

Amazing quality food. Very nice and modern decor.

Lovely space, good pizza and a great wine selection. A nice addition to Huntsville s restaurants if you re looking for something a little more special.

Pizza here is a 10/10. Love the food and the atmosphere theyve created. The staff are also very pleasant and on top of everything. I will frequent this place for sure when passing through hutnsville.

I could honestly eat the carbonara pizza for every meal here and never get tired of it. Staff is always the sweetest, cocktails are a knockout, and one of my favourite pizzas of all time. If I could rate higher than 5 stars, I would!

Don t think twice. Dine here. It will not disappoint.

Good pizza

Imagine that aliens came to the planet and immediately opened a pizza restaurant (without ever tasting pizza). Now, imagine they crafted the most pretentious atmosphere, presentation and service possible, based on terrestrial luxury TV programs captured from space. This is that restaurant.

Great pizza, the dough is excellent and prob the best Ive had. Nice place for a great meal.

Came in on Sunday evening, the restaurant was full, but apparently we were the last guests to come as we were the last to leave (except people inside in the bar area). And the last to get served :) Service was slow, we waited for our meal for about 40 minutes.. It was getting cold, but the servants could not start the heater as it has to be done by the chef, but he is stumped (do I remember the word right?). Pizza and bread came out raw on one side and burned on the other, meatballs too spicy. Good thing though - they took the burned pizza off the bill and offered a free dessert. And the place is new, staff is nice despite being busy..

We had an amazing dinner, complete with specialty cocktails, tastful appetizers, delicious wood oven pizza and finally Gelato. All top notch! Thanks for a great night

Amazing spot for date night! Beautiful food! Great atmosphere.

After eating this pizza I had to check the reviews the following was the most accurate @Jaeger32 : Imagine that aliens came to the planet and immediately opened a pizza restaurant (without ever tasting pizza). Now, imagine they crafted the most pretentious atmosphere, presentation and service possible, based on terrestrial luxury TV programs captured from space. This is that restaurant. Took 3 bites really trying to understand the taste, went straight to pizza nova down the street immediately after

What a fantastic lunch spot! Great gourmet pizza, great service and great downtown location Caitlin took wonderful care of us and gave our puppy his own water bowl. Highly recommended location if you find yourself in Huntsville

Amazing food, drinks and service. What more could you want from a restaurant. The food was beautifully presented, fresh and taste was 5* Drinks were all really nice, super cocktails! Rounded off with super service. Made for a very pleasent evening dining on the patio with the sun setting.

Fantastic pizza! The dough is perfect and their artisan pizzas are mouth watering and so flavorful. Its a party of flavors beautifully combined

I made a reservation for one and sat at the bar. Had amazing service, a great drink and a fantastic pizza.

This place has amazing food. Their pizza is next level, amazing!! Our waitress was also 5 star but the hostess was so bad that it ruined our experience. Normally I would give it 1 star but the food was too good so I can t bring myself to give it one star. Upon walking in we asked the hostess if they have kids menus and her response was: this is not a kid friendly restaurant , meanwhile I booked a table and I was asked when booking how many kids ? The day before I walked in to get take-out and the hostess said we don t do take-out. I mean, I am at the restaurant already .anyhow, there were a couple of wood burning oven pizza restaurants in Huntsville so definitely not going back here

We were able to get the last available table, we were not disappointed. Professional friendly staff. We had Italian style Pizza, it was perfecto ! The style of the restaurant was cozy yet elegant.

This was some of the best Italian Ive had in a long time. By happenstance, we learned from one of the waitstaff that the owner gets in at 5am and stays until close every day, and it comes as no surprise to me that this level of dedication shows in every aspect of the dining experience, from the food, to the decor, to the stellar customer service. Staff are incredibly friendly and on top of it. The restaurant is gorgeous. The food, my God, the food! The wine list is also well selected, and an in-house sommelier will recommend you a great pairing with whatever you order. I highly recommend the picante pizza. The showstopper for my wife and I, however, was the lemon meringue cheesecake. Order this immediately if you want to be transported to a higher plane of existence. All ingredients seem to be made in house, right down to the sauce and the dough. Its this clear attention to the details which set this place apart, and an understanding that simple, fresh ingredients done with technical precision is whats required to leave a lasting impression on any diner. As far as nitpicks go, theres not much. As prices go, they are more than fair for the quality and portions. The capri pizza was delicious, but might have benefited from a bit more salt, perhaps even an option for a balsamic glaze, which might elevate it to a new level, but thats just one mans humble opinion. I will be going back to Allora at the earliest opportunity, but more importantly, you should go. Like, tonight. Like, now. Put on something nice and take someone you love here. I promise the love will be reciprocated. Happy eating!

Excellent pizza. Service was good. Some really expensive wines on the menu for a pizza place. Nice patio.

Increadibly good. Food, Service, everything. Just Wow!!

Amazing (thin crust) pizzas! Perhaps cooking timing and presentation could use improvement. Each of my friends and I had our own order and tried each other s pizzas. We were all happy with our respective selection and the quality. Ingredients were fresh. Had to do take-out but the resto has a good ambiance. Excellent customer service and friendly staff.

Perfect place for a girls night out

Very good

Beautiful restaurant with even better food! The bruschetta with whipped ricotta is always my go to!

Everything 100% Server Allison 110%(made custom off menu specialty coffee for my wife) Everything we ate was perfect, everything we saw served to other tables guaranteed our return.

Amazing staff. Excellent food

Excellent Italian restaurant on the main street of Huntsville. We had the pizzas and they are Napolitan style, with the perfect char and wood burning smoky taste. The base sauce is tasty and they use quality ingredients. The place has street parking as well as parking in the back , plenty of seating, a bar and everything looks quite nice. My only feedback is the pizza must be cut when someone is picking up as it was a bit inconvenient because we were staying at an Airbnb. Other than that great place.

The atmosphere was the saving grace of this authentic Neapolitan pizza restaurant. The waitress was unbelievably friendly and professional. The pizza I had was a bit soggy in the middle and would ve love to seen it with a bit less sauce on it! The crust was f$cking delicious, I would eat the crust over and over again!! The centre wasn t as firm as I would want it to be, using a bit less sauce might help with that!! What ever sauce they used was tasty, a bit sweet and would ve love to seen it with a bit of tang to it. I wouldn t say that this is the best pizza in Ontario because that s a stretch (if you ve been to Toronto or Mississauga you know what I m talking about) but it s by far the best pizza in Muskoka area. If you re going through Huntsville or are a local to the area you gotta try this pizza and see for yourself. 7.5/10 (Dave portnoy style)

Had a great time when visiting. Everyone was kind and the food was exceptional.

Went their today with a buddy of mine and it was a great experience. Their Margarita pizza was well cooked and tasted great until you added fresh ground pepper and drizzle of their chilly oil (this makes everything taste better, PS don t try it on its own) which just elevated it to a whole another level. The server and the service was very good. Madison was our server and she definitely deserves a raise . The place was very well lit and made up of a very fine dining establishment with affordable pricing. The only issue I had was with the Tomato basil soup which tasted a bit more acidic than what I m used to, could be the tomatoes or something else. But the bread that came with it complimented perfectly and after dipping it in the soup I forgot all about it. In fact, I had to order the bread again as it tasted very nice with the perfect amount of spiciness. Highly recommended Especially their pizzas

Food was good and tasty. However the tomato soup bowl was half full. My water glass had a soap rim around it as it was explained by our server with very little apology. My wine glass was still wet leaving water marks on the table that I had to wipe up. The cappuccino was quite good.

What an amazing find! Didnt know where we were going to eat when we arrived in town for a show and found some of the best pizza weve ever had and hands down the best dessert weve ever experienced. Thank you!
