We always enjoy our visits to the Allegro. The staff is friendly, attentive, and professional. The atmosphere is old world Italian, tastefully done and pleasant. The food is excellent. This time I had grilled salmon over salad greens. The salmon was grilled to perfection and was huge. I'll ruin the surprise by telling you that all dinners come with a complimentary plate of miniature meatballs in red sauce, a delicious appetizer on the house. These are served for enjoyment while the meal is being prepared. There is ample free parking in a quiet neighborhood, far from the hustle and bustle. Some save this place for special occasions; others make it a regular dining spot. Whichever you do, I think you will enjoy this above-average Italian restaurant. Open evenings from 5 pm; open for lunch only on Fridays.

Once again we tried Lenaâs Cafe for a birthday celebratory dinner tonight. I went in with an open mind seeing the last two times I had eaten there, I was pretty disappointed. The first time I went there two years ago, I ordered chicken Parmesan. Honestly it tasted like veal and I even questioned my server and she assured me that it was in fact the chicken. The last time I went there, I tried a grilled chicken salad just for something different. It was ok; nothing special and left pretty hungry. Tonight I thought Iâd give the chicken Parmesan another try seeing itâs one on my favorite dishes. Once again I wasnât sure what neat I was eating and the side of pasta was just ok. Three other family members ordered the traditional spaghetti and meatballs which Lenaâs is known for and they couldnât have been more pleased with their meals. Our last family member ordered breaded veal with a side of rigatoni tonight. The veal was so tough, she had ask for a steak knife as it resembled shoe leather as she tried to eat it. She was embarrassed to send it back and she left hungry as well tonight. If you take anything from this review, my advice is go to Olive Garden or just stick to pasta there.
8. Steve-O's Pizza
Reviewed By Ashley S
Not a bad little local spot. More than once I have gotten stuck waiting for pizza in the drive-through, but if you have time to eat-in, there is a nice little seating area. Usually quiet inside, and mostly void of undisciplined children. Staff is friendly and efficient. Pizza isn't bad, depending on your expectations for square slices, but the sandwiches are my personal favorite. Don't expect to get an extra cut or two, even on large pizza orders.

We stopped by and ordered a pizza to take home as we've heard several folks tell us it's their favorite pizza in Altoona. Got it home and it was okay, but there's much better in Altoona. Maybe had we ate there when it was hot and fresh, but at home it was somewhat soggy and didn't reheat well.May stop in for lasagna or another dish to see how it travels, but wouldn't return for the pizza.

Have been to Olive Garden's in different locations and have almost always been pleased. This location is certainly one of the best that we have ever been to. The service by Spencer was certainly exceptional. He was very attentive and knowledgeable, showing great courtesy. The food was wonderful and very generous portions. I had the soup and it was certainly the hotest temperature ever - usually I receive barely warm soup - this was a real pleasure. My wife and son had the salad with their meals and both reported it to be the best ever at an Olive Garden. Entrees were served hot and at the proper time interval. Very clean interior and restrooms. Convenient parking. Will certainly return and fully recommend this location.

We went to dinner with another local couple, at their suggestion. The staff was wonderful. It is not a formal place, but they are very friendly and professional. The food was excellent with good size portions. Everything was well prepared and very fresh. They do not sell any alcohol, but they are BYOB.

In early August, Finelli's catered the food for our Italian family reunion in Duncansville. The food was very good and very authentic. The servers were very kind and helpful. Mrs. Finelli even came to our event to help out. It was a wonderful experience. We plan to go to their restaurant in Altoona, the next time we are in the area.

We stopped in here for a Sunday Afternoon Lunch. Our waitress, was very interesting to say the least. She took our orders, and brought our drinks. She couldnt even remember who ordered what drink when she brought them back, there was 4 of us, and we were the only patrons there, besides 2 other people. While waiting for our food, someone outside was walking a Raccoon, yes I said a Raccoon, and our waitress, along with about 3-4 other staff, decided to go outside and pet, play & feed the raccoon. Upon coming back in, our waitress we heard say, it bit her! Now i am hoping once she went into the kitchen area, she washed her hands throughly, we are not sure. She then comes out to ask my Dad if he wanted Lettuce, Tomato, or Onion on his Ham & Swiss sandwich. He didnt and he also said he did not want it on Rye, but their Italian Bread, they brought it on white bread, but they did fixed it for him. I ran out of my drink, and she took it to refill, and well i never got that back till we were about to leave! The food was not bad, but the service, left a lot to be desired! I am also not sure, but there was no Air Conditioning (it was 95° outside), they had to fans running, which was basically blowing hot air around the place. The Bathrooms had a funky smell to them as well. Ive ate here before, and it was not like this, but it seems the place may be heading downhill.

We stopped in here for a late dinner on a weekday evening. The place was not very crowded and we were served promptly. We ordered a margarita and an amber ale for drinks then shared their delicious fried calamari appetizer. We then shared a Marzoni's special pizza on thin white crust. The pizza was very good. All in all a nice dining experience.
