 | 	- I think this is the third name change?  Used to be Stratta.  La Cave was closed, so Allegro was the best option after playing poker.  
Good Caesar, they chop up the lettuce, but late night, it was nice not to have to figure out the fork AND knife thing.  Croutons were crunchy and chewy.  Shaved parmesan, not grated.  Carpaccio was thinly sliced and fresh.  The paccheri lobster with pesto and eggplant was rich, flavorful and usually I don't like lobster, but this was cooked nicely, still tender.  
They pay attention to the little details, like a cheesy sun dried tomato dip, we devoured it and providing utensils with the doggy bag.  We usually end up eating with our fingers.
Reasonable prices and hearty portions.  Glass of pinot noir, salad, carpaccio and pasta for $130.
