ALLO

If my wife and I feel like "steak & frites" with a good bottle of wine, then this is the place we go, although they have a lot more to offer than just that! The restaurant offers excellent French food without exorbitant prices. The place is quite casual, but offers you fine dining nonetheless. They ...always have a board with the specials of the day, very much like it is common in France. Also the food itself is genuinely French, unlike in many other so-called "French" restaurants in Japan, where they seem to cater more for Japanese tastes. Good wine list and very nice terrace. As the restaurant is away from the hustle and bustle of the Futakotamaga Rise Shopping Centre, people not familiar with the area will usually not venture out to the residential area, where this restaurant is located. So it never feels as overrun as other restaurants in the area, which get a lot more walk-in business. The cosy and quiet atmosphere is in fact one of the things that attract us to this place, along with the great food.

Visited July 2016

We visited the Allo Boulangerie last night for dinner, and enjoyed very good food in a very nice environment. The decoration really reminded me of typical bistro in France, and we had very good food for a very reasonable price.
