It was a bitterly cold but busy November 11th evening when we stumbled across this delightful modern trattoria tucked away off the main square. We were immediately impressed by the welcome (in fluent English), the warmth of the place and its overall ambience. Luckily, we managed to secure the only table on view that wasn't already reserved. We soon thawed... More

We went to this restaurant on Friday 9th December 2011 for a 6.30pm sitting. We were met by a lovely lady who spoke perfect English (puts my language skills to shame). She was very attentive and made us feel very relaxed and comfortable. The food was excellent from the antipasti we started with to the steak that I was served... More

We took the precaution of booking our Friday night dinner, and this was well advised as the restaurant was busy throughout the evening. We were offered a very nice (and large) table by the charming hostess, who showed us the menus and mentioned the day's specials. Service throughout was attentive but not overwhelming. As fish lovers the choice of main... More

We ate here after reading reviews on Trip Advisor. It was a fab restaurant, the food was excellent and very nicely presented. We booked in advance and would recommend that as all the tables were taken. Would definitely eat there again when back in Ypres next year. More

A chance find on a Sunday afternoon in Ypres, this was a very welcoming restaurant, with first class service and very accomplished cooking. Trenette with pesto was wonderful and the tagliata di manzo melted int he mouth. Definitely recommended for a very enjoyable meal. More

Very warm welcome with friendly and attentive service. The food was excellent; simple, well thought out and very well executed. The restaurant itself is small but perfectly formed. Book in advance so that you don't miss out. We visited on Saturday night and I just wish it had been open on Sunday so that we could have gone back. Without... More

Very nice restaurant. The food was excellent. Not that typical Itallian restaurant you find on every corner. But really refined food. And also imprtant ad a very reasonable price. If we ever go back to Ieper then we certainly go back. More

Travelling with 3 friends on a recent visit to Leper (Ypres) in Belgium, we came across Trattoria Alloro. We were staying in the excellent Ariane Hotel and thus the centre of the town is a very short stroll away. The restaurant is located about 100 metres off the main square and is run by Anglo-Belgium couple Pat & Fanny Smart.... More

A must for lovers of Italian food and locals were eating there - always a good sign if the locals patronise a restaurant in a tourist town. We arrived quite late - 1.45pm and it closed at 2pm - but we weren't turned away. On the contrary, the chef rustled up a fabulous meal using the finest ingredients. Our three... More
