It’s no shock that Allegretto Winery Resort’s solely restaurant is implausible, since the whole lot at Allegretto is beautiful. The Paso Robles restaurant is fantastically appointed with white stone, purple accents, and beautiful chandeliers. We principally opted to eat breakfast and dinner exterior although, because the patio has an unbelievable sundown view and the climate was virtually excellent. With revolutionary cocktails and many enjoyable plates to share, you’ll wish to eat right here repeatedly!
Dinner
We ate dinner at Cello Ristorante twice and I couldn’t even wait to inform you in regards to the freaking pizza. We ordered the Campagnolo pizza with basil pesto, rooster, roasted potatoes, pickled onion, and mozzarella. Omg! It was so tacky and recent and scrumptious. We even ate it chilly leftover and it nonetheless tasted superb.
With grilled lemon, thick-cut bacon, and actual anchovies, the Caesar salad can be a should and goes completely with a pizza. You can too get the Caesar topped with rooster, salmon, shrimp, or steak. Yum!
As for appetizers, the charcuterie is gorgeous and good to snack on again in your courtyard terrace in case you don’t end all of it at dinner. The charcuterie board had Mortadella, chorizo, and salami, brie, Marcona almonds, Manchego cheese, candied walnuts, grapes, dried fruits, fig jam, olives, crackers, a stunning assortment for any palette. The winter burrata salad has house-made focaccia, child beets, and a scrumptious garlic confit.
However my absolute favourite dinner merchandise at Cello Ristorante must be the Brussels Sprouts. This dish is a ten/10. It’s somewhat spicy with out being overpowering. The creamy gorgonzola is the proper distinction to the warmth. The usage of Nueske bacon right here is DIVINE and the sauce is good and sticky and superb. It’s a must-order dish for foodies!
Dessert
I want we had eaten extra desserts at Cello, however I do have to focus on the one one we did strive: the Cello Lemon Cake. Previous to my journey, I had written “Order Cello Lemon Cake!!” on my Paso Robles notes and boy am I glad I did. This moist cake is the proper mixture of candy and tart. I’m onerous to impress relating to cake however Cello doesn’t disappoint with its pastries.
Breakfast/Brunch
There are fairly a number of breakfast and brunch choices at Cello, together with a weekend buffet that we sadly didn’t partake in. I kicked off my birthday with Belgian waffles served with lemon curd. I don’t usually order waffles at a restaurant however I simply couldn’t resist the fluffy Belgians with California berries.
We additionally picked up a pastry field on our strategy to Hearst Fort, which I extremely suggest doing in case you’re in dashing off someplace. The field got here with quite a lot of fruit pastries, mini chocolate croissants (which we delighted in additional than as soon as!), an excellent comfortable blueberry muffin, and extra. We even ate the final ones on the way in which to the airport days later they usually have been nonetheless scrumptious!
My absolute favourite breakfast merchandise although was the bagel with lox, which is on the menu as “Royal Cambridge Home Open-Fireplace Smoked Salmon.” The presentation alone had me so excited! The dish is served with whipped cream cheese in tantalizing piles below toasted bagel items with a shocking smoked salmon rose within the middle. Are you kidding!? This dish was made for me! My dream dish…within the form of the rose! Perfection.
Espresso
Final however actually not least, I’ve to offer a shoutout to the espresso at Allegretto. It’s my greatest pet peeve after I’m touring that I can’t appear to get a good cup of espresso however that’s NOT the case right here. The espresso is great. You may both get pleasure from a piping scorching cup at Cello or get the identical espresso to go within the foyer on the handy espresso bar, additional proving that Allegretto actually cares in regards to the visitor expertise.
