I'm in love

We had the most fantastic time at Alu. My friends had told me about it and I finally stopped in to have a drink with them this weekend. Hip, hip, hip. Loved the live music and the ambience. I read some of the reviews before writing my own and I have to say the service I received was great!! They were busy and our server was on the move the whole time, refilling our waters, asking for orders before our drinks were empty, it was nice. I'll be back..........I'm so glad I finally went :)

Pros: ambience, wine selection

Whoa!!

I had a great time at Alu with friends last week. Cozy space, romantic and fun. I'd love to see it stick around the neighborhood! Our server was delightful and bubbly and the bubbly we drank was even more impressive. Great wine list.

Pros: Great atmosphere, superb wine list
Cons: Small venue, limited menu

Wonderful everything!

We went to Alu last weekend; it was busy and I was blown away by the complete package, which was actually made possible by our server. She was outstanding. Knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, answered all our questions, made us feel at home, recommended the perfect pairings, on-it! The bartender came over at one point to change our candle, and charmed us with his wit and friendliness. My husband and I go out at least twice a week, and it is rare to find such quality: from the ambiance to the food/drink, and especially the service. I will definitely be back. I highly recommend Alu.
