Just mediocre restaurant in Toronto.
I tried their bar menu; the dishes for the bar menu are made by the same chefs at the same kitchen according to their server.
I ordered what the server recommended.
First I had a toro tartare with uni. The texture of the toast was soft and chewy, which I liked. I also got a glass of wine from Niagara, which was interesting because I had never tried wine from Niagara.
Second, I had Agnolotti which included Manchego Cheese, potato and saffron. It was a bit heavy for me.
Next, I had Salmon, which was cooked raw. It was great.
Finally, I ordered their dessert: cheesecake with ice cream. It was interesting.
Overall dining experience at Alo was decent, but it did not "wow" me, also considering the price.
I felt a little rushed and my expectation was higher as I read that this was considered the #1 restaurant in Toronto.
