Fodor's Review:
The chef isn't the main draw here: that honor belongs to his cooking. Andrea Accordi, arguably the city?s most heralded chef, serves luscious, seasonal dishes from around Italy like duo of sea scallops and spaghetti with scorpionfish, all in a snazzy, almost nautical dining room. To say the chef and the restaurant have raised the bar for Prague dining is an understatement, though the kitchen is apt to go on flights of fancy at times (think foams). Regularly recognized as one of the best Italian kitchens in Central Europe, Allegro is a treat for those who indulge in the top of the line.

Doesn't live up to the hype

Stay away from the gnocchi appetizer! Yuck. We dined here while in Prague, and wished we had gone back for a 2nd night at David's. The service was impeccible, on par with a Four Seasons restaurant. However, the food cost a fortune, and we were not impressed with how some of it was prepared. The selection is modest, unless you are coming for the wine. Despite the fact that we didn't touch our mushy gnocchi, we were charged for it anyway. I don't think it's ever customary to take something off the bill when a customer finds it unappealing. I come back to the price because I would expect it to be so much better given what they charge, and given the reviews! We ate at several fine dining restaurants, and once you reach this level, the chef should know how to prepare duck so that it doesn't seem like undercooked chewy fowl. Of course, being in Prague, the Fois Gras was amazing. I'd pass on this one though.
