We visited allure restaurant on lounge. It was a game night. A friend was hosting the atmosphere and there is very pretty. It is very nice in green couches. Beautiful bar is a little small. The service in there was five out of five. The food was great as you can see in the pictures. The only thing I did not like I'm not sure if it was because of the event, but the gratuity was 28%. I felt that was extremely high. Yes I do know it's located downtown, but I felt that was extremely high. That was my only negative of dislocation, but I do want to return and see if it is different for their brunch. I do wanna try their brunch one weekend. read more

I wanted to love Allure lounge however my experience here was subpar. We attended for Saturday brunch. After being seated it took well over 30 minutes for us to be introduced to our server. During that 30 minutes, we continued to try to obtain service to order drinks and were consistently told "I don't have your table, I'll get your server." Once the server finally came over, it took about another 10 minutes for us to receive our unlimited mimosas. By this time we were very underwhelmed and requested the manager. I believe the manager was the owner and he compensated us by brining us another bottle of champagne which was already unlimited. Once we received our food, it was cold. Items were missing and it just was not good. Allure lounge has the potential to be a great spot as the ambiance offers a nice vibe. Leadership would need to work on customer service. read more

Came here with a friend on a late night a few weeks ago just to check it out. Beautiful decor, I must say they really took their time to craft this place because it's a very clean professional and upclass look. There's an area where you can do karaoke to a song of your choice which is really cool as well. Staff was extremely professionally in classy and after I did a karaoke they gave me a free shot. Bathroom was extremely clean and good looking as well and I can't lie. The empanadas were pretty decent, not the best I've ever had but still pretty decent. I would definitely be back here again because it seems that they throw a lot of mixers and birthday party event events. read more

I visited Allure for the first time last December for my homeboy's wedding dinner and reception. I immediately loved the vibe and aesthetic of the lounge. The atmosphere was great, and they played a nice selection of music with a live DJ that really set the tone for the evening. There's seating on the first floor, along with additional balcony seating, so the space is a decent size and can accommodate larger groups. The bar is located downstairs, and the bartenders were on point. They made some fire drinks that everyone enjoyed. I will say the evening started off a little rocky. When the wedding party arrived, it seemed like they weren't fully prepared for us. Our food wasn't ready, and it felt as though there had been a miscommunication about our arrival. However, the staff apologized multiple times and truly worked to make things right. They ended up comping all of our drinks, which we really appreciated, and by the end of the night the bride and groom were happy, which is what mattered most. The food was actually very good, and overall the experience turned out to be positive. I can confidently say I wouldn't mind returning to Allure. If you're looking for a Black owned lounge with a great vibe, good music, strong drinks, and tasty food, I would definitely recommend giving them a shot. read more

I went to Allure Lounge with one of my homegirls to celebrate Galentine's Day and we had such a good time! I highly recommend making reservations, especially for brunch, because it definitely gets busy. Parking options were convenient there's a parking garage, a lot across the street, and a small lot right next to the building. If you get there early enough, you can grab a close spot (just be prepared to pay for parking). When we walked in, the hostess greeted us warmly and gave us a full rundown of the brunch menu. They offer two set options: * $30 - Chicken, waffle, French toast, scrambled eggs, a slice of bacon, and biscuits * $40 - Steak instead of chicken, plus everything listed above Both options come with 90 minutes of bottomless mimosas with flavors like mango, orange, cranberry, pineapple, and strawberry. If you wanted anything outside of that, you had to order directly from the bar. The hostess initially sat us at a table with a pillar slightly blocking our view lol. My friend looked at me like, "Are you okay with us being hidden?" But honestly, we were there for a good time, not a long time so we made it work! Our waiter, Kel, immediately came over with waters and got the mimosas flowing. He was on point the entire time and kept the drinks coming which I appreciated because my friend and I are disabled, and getting up constantly to go to the mimosa bar would have been a lot. Thankfully, Kel made sure we were good. The DJ was and really kept the energy up. He even did a little karaoke moment that had the crowd engaged. The vibe was definitely grown and sexy, which I loved. It felt mature, fun, and upscale all at once. My friend actually knew the owner, so I got to meet him. He was incredibly kind and attentive. Every time I go out and have drinks, I have to order fries it's a thing! Even though fries weren't on the set menu, he made it happen for me and even said he'd consider adding them moving forward. That kind of customer service goes a long way. He also made sure we had water at the table and checked on us throughout our visit. The establishment itself is very nice, clean, and gives upscale vibes. Even the bathroom was clean and well-kept which always matters! My only suggestion: instead of having guests go to the bar for the bottomless option, it would be great to place the juice options and a bottle of champagne directly on the table so the waiter can simply replace bottles as needed. It would make the experience smoother, especially for guests with mobility challenges. Overall, for my first time, I'd give it a 9/10. I'll definitely be back and I'd love to experience their nightlife next! read more

Had the pleasure of attending Allure lounge for Sunday brunch we pre-booked our VIP service I splurged on the more expensive package, which was very unpleasing. The service was amazing. The ambience was to die for unfortunately, the food just did not please but the unlimited mimosa were a hit, the DJ was fired and it really was a good time. I would recommend just make sure you eat before going. read more

Really beautiful inside. The food is good and they play good music. They have a huge menu with a lot of options. I thought it was a crazy idea at first but sometimes a wide variety is needed lol they have everything from chicken wings to curry goat. The potions are generous and the service was friendly and accommodating. I visited for a birthday dinner. They have a cool ring light area for the perfect photos. read more

My friends and I drove to Orlando to check out the "Sak Pasé" Brunch at Allure. The venue itself is stylish, and there's a convenient paid parking lot right next to the restaurant. The live DJ set the vibes perfectly with great music that kept the energy up throughout brunch. Our server was attentive and made sure all our needs were met, which I truly appreciated. The food was tasty, though I was expecting Haitian flavors considering the name of the brunch. Another drawback for me was the $15 reservation fee, which felt unnecessary. Overall, it was an enjoyable brunch with a fun atmosphere, good service, and lively crowd. read more

I really want to like Allure. I have attended some great events here and had great times. However, the service is very slow and it's typically hot if there is a crowd. The bartenders tend to be very nice and have great attitudes but it takes forever to get a drink. I'm sure I will visit again but I will definitely get a drink elsewhere first and bring a personal fan. read more

Absolutely the BEST spot in downtown Orlando! The decor is so chic and sexy. It is a whole elevated elegance vibe The food was just amazing. My children (ages 6,8,10 and 15) LOVED it! While this typically is a grown and sexy place it is important to me that children experience CULTURED upscale dining. The service was on point ! We had a server and an assistant server and any other server that walked by would make sure we were ok! The very next day my friend hosted her birthday party here and she was speechless with the service and the way they catered to all of us! read more

I really wanted to LOVE Allure Lounge, but each time I visit, it just falls a bit below the bar of expectation for me. The space/venue has some beautiful moments in the decor choices made. It's great for events and birthdays. There's an upstairs and downstairs, which is always pretty cool in the restaurant world from a customer experience. I cannot speak for the staff, but I feel that is probably more annoying (but one can only assume). All that aside, where this restaurant continues to fall short is in service and food. The drinks are decent and standard as far as pricing goes. So, don't expect to come to save a buck when it comes to drinks (this includes mocktails - which I have a bone to pick with MOST places about their mocktail menus and pricing in general). As for the food, it is MID at best. I should preface with the fact that I've only had their brunch. I cannot speak to anything outside of that. My very first experience of brunch at Allure Lounge was not too long after they had been open. I went with a few friends, and we ordered our selections and sat there nearly an HOUR before the food was served. For a wait that long, I expected TENDERISM! I got none of that. It was a standard breakfast that was lukewarm at best. During our wait, we finished our first round of drinks and ordered another round, only for part of the table to get their second drink on time and the rest of us (me included) to wait for a second drink to arrive AFTER our long-awaited meal selections. Despite the staff being lively, since a DJ was jamming the entire time, it didn't make up for the fact that they were not attentive to the table(s). At the time we arrived, it was before the brunch rush hour, so our meals taking as long as they did was just confusing. I am not sure if they are short-staffed in the kitchen (which, if that is the case, mentioning that to us as customers is good so that we can manage our expectations of when our food will be out) or what, but we really should not have waited so long for standard breakfast food. I can see if maybe I ordered lamb chops, but I legit ordered FRENCH TOAST! Anyways, while the venue is great for events and drinks, I've made it a point to not eat there if at all possible. The wait times are abysmal. I hope they can sort this out so that they can remain open because the venue really does have some lovely decor moments and is pretty nice for curated events. If not, I am not quite sure how it will fare among other surrounding businesses in the long run. read more

What a great date night, girls night, fellas night, any kind of hang out night. The DJ was great, live band was fire, and the food was so so good. The manager helped us because they had a wedding pre-party. We made a reservation and sat in the back room. It was cozy, intimate, and I'm happy we gave it a chance. I booked a regular table and was initially disappointed. But we were still able to order food and enjoyed every minute of it. I will say the steak is a very cheap cut of meat. I thought it was overcooked, they shined a light on it and showed me it was medium like I ordered. But it was very tough and chewy. But the pasta was fire. We can't wait to go back for another date night. The vibe is grown, sophisticated, and sexy. read more

This spot was absolutely gorgeous, right in the heart of downtown Orlando, with such a nice vibe for a brunch event. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, which really set the tone. I ordered the chicken and waffles; while it wasn't the best I've ever had, it was still okay. The presentation was really cute, but the chicken came out a little overcooked and fried a bit too hard. The tots and fries combo was definitely different and fun, and my friend really enjoyed theirs! Overall, I'd go back again for sure... just next time, I'll try out a different dish. read more

The service was slow but the dining hall was crowded. The waitress went out of her way to explain some of the delay but when my food finally arrived with broccoli in it (I am allergic to broccoli) that had not been listed on the menu I decided it just wasn't my night. I'd likely try again under different circumstances. I feel like the kitchen and bar were just completely understaffed and overwhelmed. read more

Allure Restaurant and Lounge is a great brunch spot with a stylish vibe and an upbeat atmosphere. The DJ had a nice mix of RnB and Afrobeats which made the brunch feel like a whole experience rather than just a meal. The unlimited mimosas are the star of the show and I loved being able to switch up the mixers throughout brunch. Food wise the steak and eggs with chimichurri was my top pick. The lamb chops were seasoned well. I personally think mashed potatoes would pair better than fries but it was still enjoyable. If you like a sweet option the French Toast Suzette with bacon was fruity and delicious. Service was friendly and the drinks were on point. I tried a signature cocktail that was so good I forgot the name so definitely ask your server for their best recommendation. Overall Allure is worth adding to your brunch list if you want good food great drinks and a lively RnB and Afrobeats brunch vibe. read more

I came for brunch with friends because we saw it advertised on Instagram. Once we sat down, we waited 20 minutes and still did not receive any service. We flagged down someone who then brought a man over who I'm going to assume was the manager. He told us a server would be with us shortly. After another 10 minutes, he brought us waters and again reiterated that a server would be coming. 10 minutes after that a lady comes and offers us mimosas. When we told her we were ready for food, she told us she was not our server. When our server finally came, we had waiting almost an hour. The food came 10 minutes after that and was very underwhelming. It was cold and unseasoned and honestly just not good. When we went to order our second plates because it was unlimited; the food came for my friends but not for me. When I asked where my plate was they advised that they ran out of food. I was able to get a refund, but the entire experience from start to finish was not enjoyable. I can say the establishment is very beautiful and our server was nice when he did finally show up. They also had a DJ who was playing really good music, but I don't see myself coming back here again for this type of service. read more

A friend took me out to lunch, I didn't even know about this place. The food was alright I had better jollof rice and lamp chops before. When you tell an African person that you have jollof in your menu, i expect it to come with some kick to it not just bland which ends just being rice cooked in tomato and nothing special. Ian was our server, he was great. Did his job. And the manager was very nice and welcoming. As African you surely would feel at home, because they play recent music from the motherland. I would go back again to try it out. read more

I visited Allure in downtown Orlando recently, and while the ambiance and overall food were fine, I need to call out a serious issue with the billing practices here. I ordered a glass of wine listed at $15. When it came time to settle the check, I noticed they had charged me $35 per glass instead. When I questioned this, the server admitted that the restaurant had run out of the $15 wine and "substituted" the more expensive one without telling me. At first, they only discounted $10, claiming I had already drunk the wine. I pushed back, because I had never agreed to the substitution or the price increase. Only then did they finally remove the full $20 difference. The lesson here: always check your bill carefully at this place. It felt deceptive and left a very sour impression, no matter how the food or atmosphere might be. For me, that kind of billing mistake--and the reluctance to fix it--overshadows the entire dining experience. read more

EVERYTHING!!!! The service was slow and's terrible. The food was even worse. The Lamb chops were tasteless and not consistent at all. 3 of us ordered them and they all were play different, some were even missing ingredients that the other didn't have. They put 3 pieces of some soggy orange vegetable that I couldn't figure out what it was. One of the guests never got their meal and they ordered salmon, hours later.....no exaggeration, no salmon (18 mins top to cook salmon properly) the jerk pasta was not consistent either, some shrimp were over cooked and the portions were all different for the dish and even the drinks were served in 2 different glasses, one larger than the other but the same price. Go figure that. When I asked to speak to the manager, he came, but got on the defensive side and had an excuse for every mishap we experienced. The ambience is trash, decor is nice too, but furniture doesn't taste good when you're hungry. Y'all need Chef Ramsey bad! Or at least a whole new manager! Straight trash! Don't waste your time or money. Let me say this if yall fix it let me know, I'll come back and critique you again. Blessings, to owner, management is the key to good business and that means everything! read more

Snapper wasn't a whole snapper, was a midsized portion with the same tomato sauce on top that was in the jollof. The jollof was ridiculously bland, it was giving boxed rice. My chicken thighs were dry as a bone. I asked for pepper sauce and they brought me a cup of Crystal hot sauce. How you're serving African food without having pepper sauce is beyond me. We were there for a large party, you would think they just learned of it, and hadn't had prior knowledge given how long everything took. The corn salad was clearly canned corn given how chewy it was. We ate at small coffee tables, not an actual dining table which was extremely uncomfortable. read more

I visited this past Sunday for their advertised unlimited food and bottomless mimosas. Unfortunately, after one plate of food and one mimosa, we were told they had run out of food.

Took over an hour for the food (the four of us were the only ones in) The food all came out separately. Drinks took forever. I ordered the Crispy Chicken Thighs (plural). If they had been honest with me from the start and said they had ran out I would have ordered something else but don't lie to me and give me half a chicken breast on a plate! The service is terrible, the price for food and drinks is laughable. They had around 20 members of staff, mostly standing around. Clearly none of them can cook. If this is the "Spirit of Cape Town" i am knocking that City off my bucket list. Save your money and go to Taco Bell Cantina across the road. read more
