Tasting menu with wine pairing was incredible. My only complaint would be that I ordered the pescatarian tasting menu and had pork on my scallops (which I only realized after taking a bite). As a lifelong vegetarian/pescatarian, that was a bit of a shock. Otherwise, the food and service was exceptional! Would highly recommend Alo.
