Cafe Allegro
2124 3rd St, La Verne, La Verne,
We've gone to the Cafe Allegro in Upland several times and loved the food/service. Tried the one in La Verne, looked really cute. Very small but has nice patio eating area. Food was delicious, waiter was extremely rude. Waited about 2 hours to be served due to a party of 40 eating inside. Ordered calamari as an appetizer, but they were out of it. After waiting about 20-30 minutes at our table we asked if we may please have some bread and they were out of bread as well. After almost 2 hours and after many people around us decided to get up and leave they gave us a basket of what looked like the end peices of the bread they use to make their bruschetta, 2 minutes later we were finally served our food. The hostess was extremely nice, but our waiter never once apologized until he gave us our bill at the end of our meal. Maybe it was just a bad night for them, but you'd think they would send someone to the grocery store up the street to pick up some bread at least? We were totally bummed and wished that we would have just left like most of the people around us instead of having to pay them for such a horrible dining experience. Will most likely never go back to the La Verne location, even though it's right down the street from my house. I would recommend the Upland location in a heartbeat... i'm embarrased to have been the one to suggest going to the La Verne location.
