Allegro Ristorante & Bar
Promise of Italian tastes, atmosphere
The interior is just the place to enjoy a relaxed meal, and was created with the care of the owner Judit Budai. She carefully selected the furniture and exciting pictures that form their own ever-changing gallery. All in all, the clean lines add up to a carefully chosen and special space.
Allegro welcomes its guests in the summer with aperitifs, colourful cocktails and a DJ on the terrace, aiming to be likened to an atmosphere reminiscent of a party in those small Italian bars found at popular Lake Como.
Autumn and winter are more about slow, sit-down evenings, but friendly and a memorable venue for meetings. Whatever the season, the pizzas are prepared according to authentic Italian recipes, with guests able to look on at the activity around the pizza oven.
In addition to the classics, a gastronomic detour takes in varieties with truffle, salsic and Tyrolean speck ham. Allegro is also strong in the pasta-risotto line, offering its own home-made pesto variation, summery tomato-spicy pastas, and autumn cannot pass without fragrant mushroom risotto. Desserts and the cocktail menu add the extras. Sweet-toothed lovers of tarts should be able to end the evening happily here with plenty of flavours to choose from.
Judit Budai says the constantly evolving, exciting interior and the most beautiful spheres of Italian gastronomy are just the scenery: the decadence of the weekdays and the effervescence of the weekends with unexpected situations and terrace parties unfold spontaneously at all times.
