Harden's says
Ex-Chiltern Firehouse head chef Patrick Powell's first solo venture, on the seventh floor of Stratford's new Manhattan Loft Gardens building (the new apartment tower that also boasts a hotel and three roof gardens, plus The Stratford Brasserie on the ground floor). It's certainly shaping up to be one of the most impressive openings of 2019. Allegra has its own roof terrace (or 'sky garden'), a curing room, a Scandinavian stone bar and a glass, walk-in wine room. Powell's dedication to local and sustainable food has extended to buying Kent farmland to provide Allegra with nearby ingredients.
Harden's survey result
Summary
Patrick Powell’s “adventurous and well-crafted” cuisine on the 7th floor of this glossy design hotel (part of the Manhattan Loft Gardens apartment block) “is something far beyond other restaurants in the area, with real delicacy and touch, particularly in the fish cookery… if it were more central it would be constantly packed to bursting”. On the downside, “despite the pleasant decor and the great view you can’t quite shake the feeling that it’s part of a hotel… which of course it is…”
Summary
With a chef (Patrick Powell) from the Chiltern Firehouse and an interior by the design team behind Copenhagen’s Noma, this seventh-floor venue near Westfield Stratford is a “lovely slice of West End-type glamour in East London”. “Great food and wine, nice outdoor terrace” complete a uniformly positive picture.
Summary
“A bit of the West End in E20” – this stylish contemporary dining room sits on the seventh floor of a hotel/apartments tower, with an interior fit-out by the Copenhagen design team behind Noma, and boasts a terrace with views of the City skyline. Ex-Chiltern Firehouse head chef Patrick Powell uses high-quality British dishes to create what fans say is “by far the best cuisine in the Westfield Stratford area”.
