*****  Allora Pizzeria Ristorante, 420 US Highway One, North Palm Beach, Florida 33408 (561) 296-9295

Let’s call Allora Pizzeria a good local “mom & pop red-sauce” Italian joint. Not worth schleping 38-miles (one way) to eat there, but the food is probably as good if not a drop better than most of the red-sauce joints that dot the South Florida strip center landscape. Take a look at Allora’s website www.allorapizza.com for menu/prices/photos.

A recent taste-test had me sampling pizza, cheese calzone, baked ziti, chicken cacciatore, linguini with white clams sauce and veal marsla…like I said before, good joint…assuming that you live or work in the neighborhood. Allora’s menu is loaded with appetizers, soups, salads, pizzas, pastas and meat/seafood/chicken entrees. You know the basic-dinner-drill…entree comes with soup or salad/pasta side/garlic knots. Reasonable prices/pleasant service.

You now know about a good Italian joint for eat-in/take-out…Allora is open Monday-Saturday 11am-10pm and Sunday 4pm-10pm.
