    Alaro’s is one of our favorite restaurants. It was a special night and Annette the owner made it more special by taking the time to read my comment in OpenTable and accommodating my request. If you haven’t been there, I highly recommend you try it! Thank you Alaro!

    My wife and I are foodies and love trying new restaurants. We had Broadway tickets and decided to try frog and slim before the show… It was a great decision!  Our server, Alysha, was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely attentive. She truly enhanced our meal experience! We thoroughly enjoyed the hamburger and octopus that we ordered for our entrées. Additionally, we also had soup as an appetizer, which was also equally delicious. We met one of the owners, Slim, who was extremely humble and grateful for having us there… We truly felt appreciated. As we observed the restaurant, all the employees seemed happy and eager to help all guests…It was a great feeling. Although this was our first visit, it definitely will not be our last. We look forward to coming here again very soon.

    We would give it a five if the hostess was alert to my wife’s accessibility issues. She did not take into account she was using a walker and she was led around the restaurant in a large circle to be seated having to move patrons and chairs in order to seat her. Otherwise great service, great food and a good experience.
