    Always a great experience at Canon. It is a special treat for us and it did not disappoint. The squash small plate was the hit of the night. Delicious.

    Environment is elegant but not stuffy. Service is superior. Our server invested time early on explaining the menu in detail which was very helpful. Pace of the four course dinner was relaxed but not too slow. The food was amazing and Allora clearly deserves its stellar reputation.
