A 7pm reservation brought house-made focaccia and ciabatta, a seafood salad, carbonara and a sous-vide pork shoulder steak with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, followed by a vocal-and-three-piece jazz quartet through both the first and second sets. With a window seat looking straight out at Lotte Tower, it's a solid pick for a Jamsil date night. ## Good to know - **Location**: 238m from Songpa Naru Station Exit 2 (3–4 min walk), 3rd floor - **Hours**: 12:00–23:00 (last order 21:30), break time 15:00–18:00 - **Closed**: Every Tuesday - **Parking**: Not available; use nearby paid parking lots - **Reservations**: Available via Catchtable - **Corkage**: ₩50,000 per bottle (max 2 bottles) - **Show times**: 1st set 19:30–20:10 / 2nd set 20:25–21:05 (40 min each) - **Show cover charge**: ₩10,000 per person on weekdays / ₩15,000 on Fri–Sat - **Menu ordered**: House focaccia & ciabatta ₩3,000 / white wine glass ₩12,000 / seafood salad ₩20,000 / carbonara ₩19,000 / sous-vide pork shoulder steak ₩33,000 *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![Main photo from a visit to Allegro, an Italian restaurant in Jamsil](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-01-1y82h-1200.webp) My husband is the one who got me into the charm of live jazz shows. A restaurant with live jazz opened right near my neighborhood, so I had to check it out. I found Allegro while looking for a good Italian restaurant in Jamsil. Good food plus a jazz show made for a refreshingly different date night in Jamsil 💕 ![Jazz-lounge atmosphere at Allegro restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-02-wexbs-966.webp) ![Interior atmosphere photo of Allegro](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-03-i29wo-966.webp) ## Where do you book a reservation? You can book through Catchtable. If you note a birthday or anniversary in the request field, they're currently running an event where they provide a dessert with lettering — good to know! 🎉 ## How far is it from Songpa Naru Station? (Location & parking) 📍 Allegro is about a 3–4 minute walk from Exit 2 of Songpa Naru Station. Close enough to the station that getting there by public transport is really convenient. ![Walking route from Songpa Naru Station Exit 2 to Allegro](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-04-dzw2q-966.webp) ![Exterior of the building where Allegro is located](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-05-4a7ui-966.webp) 🚘 There's no dedicated parking lot for the restaurant, so if you're driving, you'll need to use a nearby paid parking lot. There are a few around, so I'd recommend checking in advance before you visit. ## Jazz-club vibe inside, with a Lotte Tower window seat ![Allegro's September jazz show schedule board](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-06-1k3wg-966.webp) *September show schedule* Step off the elevator on the 3rd floor and you can feel the jazz vibe from the entrance itself 🎺🎵 ✔️ You can check the show schedule on their Instagram. ![Allegro interior seating arranged facing the stage](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-07-z4su5-966.webp) *Inside Allegro* There are seats angled toward the stage for those who want a good view of the show, and window seats set up for people who'd rather focus on the meal than the performance. ![Allegro's dining hall filling up with guests](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-08-6newd-m-966.webp) *Inside Allegro* Seats filled up quickly, and it was mostly couples. Great atmosphere — felt like I'd found a new favorite Jamsil date spot 😊 ![Window seat at Allegro with a view of Lotte Tower](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-09-1xjpq-966.webp) ![Evening atmosphere at Allegro's window seats](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-10-1v8tk-966.webp) This is the vibe from the window seat ✨ You can see Lotte Tower right outside. Once the sun went down, the interior felt even more atmospheric. I really loved that Lotte Tower view 🤗 The drawings on the wall are totally my style, too! ## Live jazz show times and cover charge ![Sign showing Allegro's live jazz show times and cover charge](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-11-1hc6d-966.webp) - Show times — 1st set: 7:30–8:10pm (40 min) / 2nd set: 8:25–9:05pm (40 min) - Show cover charge (per person) — Weekdays: ₩10,000 / Fri–Sat: ₩15,000 We booked for 7pm, so we had plenty of time to look over the menu and order. Once we'd eaten a bit, the show naturally kicked off — I'd recommend arriving a little early rather than timing your visit exactly to the show start. ## What's on the menu ![Allegro's menu featuring pasta and steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-12-hmw3z-966.webp) Allegro serves a wide range of Italian dishes — pasta, salads, gnocchi, steak, polpo (octopus) and more. There were quite a lot of pasta options to choose from depending on your taste, plus wine and light sides to go with it. ![Allegro's wine list menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-13-ml8xr-966.webp) ![Menu page listing red and white wine by the glass](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-14-1xesm-966.webp) The wine list is really extensive. They also sell red and white wine by the glass — ₩12,000. ## Today's picks ### House focaccia & ciabatta ₩3,000 ![A plate of house-made focaccia, ciabatta and campagne](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-15-18p6x-966.webp) *Bread* We ordered the focaccia & ciabatta without realizing complimentary bread would also come out 😂 On the left is either ciabatta or focaccia, honestly hard to tell. On the right is a campagne with cranberries and nuts. Being house-made, the bread was soft and had no dryness at all — really good. ![Allegro's complimentary bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-16-1qglo-966.webp) *Complimentary bread* This is the complimentary bread. ### White wine glass ₩12,000 ![A glass of Sauvignon Blanc white wine](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-17-82v6w-966.webp) *Sauvignon Blanc* The white wine (Sauvignon Blanc) was bright and refreshing, and it paired especially well with the seafood salad. It felt like a wine that wouldn't overpower any dish and would pair well with pretty much anything on the menu. ### Seafood salad ₩20,000 ![Seafood salad with sea grapes and lime dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-18-sq7w1-m-966.webp) *Seafood salad* A Mediterranean-style salad with fresh seafood, bell pepper, onion, sea grapes, and a lime dressing. Highly, highly recommend the seafood salad!! Lots of variety of seafood and a generous portion. The tangy, zesty flavor really wakes up your appetite 💕 ![A spoonful of the seafood salad being scooped up](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-19-lnab8-966.webp) *Seafood salad* Scoop up a big spoonful and go for it. It's also great piled onto bread. Zero fishy taste at all. ### Carbonara ₩19,000 ![Carbonara topped with guanciale and an egg yolk](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-20-h85fa-966.webp) *Carbonara* An authentic carbonara made with guanciale, pecorino cheese, and a fresh egg yolk. ![Carbonara pasta lifted up with a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-21-1hhne-966.webp) Creamy without being heavy, with a sharp kick of black pepper that balanced the flavor really well 🤭 The guanciale (pork cheek/jowl) in particular had this crispy-yet-chewy texture and a nutty flavor I loved — a different charm from bacon entirely. ### Sous-vide pork shoulder steak ₩33,000 ![Sous-vide pork shoulder steak with peppercorn sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-22-oox4p-966.webp) *Sous-vide pork shoulder steak* Domestic pork shoulder (300g), sous-vide cooked and seared crispy, served with a peppercorn sauce. ![Cross-section of a thick-cut sous-vide pork shoulder steak](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-23-s8lep-966.webp) *Sous-vide pork shoulder steak* Can you feel the thickness? 🤤 ![Sous-vide pork shoulder steak served with fries](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner-24-1avjk-966.webp) *Sous-vide pork shoulder steak* Crispy on the outside, moist inside. Not tough at all — it chews soft and lets you really taste the clean, mild flavor of the pork shoulder. The sauce and the fries on the side were also excellent. ## So, what do you think jazz is? > Jazz, you know. It's like ba-da-boo-bah, doo-bee-doo-bee-bah-bah 🎵 That evening's performers were the Lee Ji-yeon Quartet — one vocalist and three musicians. Hearing jazz live made the whole atmosphere so much better 💕 We enjoyed it so much we stayed through the second set too. ## So, would I go back? Getting to enjoy delicious Italian food alongside a live jazz show made for such a romantic evening at Allegro. The food overall was satisfying, and what made it special was being able to enjoy live jazz right while you're eating. I'm curious to hear other performers too, so I'd love to visit again! Good food, great atmosphere, and a live show all in one — a perfect spot for a Jamsil date. If you're looking for a good Italian restaurant in Jamsil with a great vibe, I'd definitely recommend it 💕 ## Allegro restaurant info - 📍 Location — 238m from Songpa Naru Station Exit 2 - ⏰ Hours — 12:00–23:00 (last order 21:30), break time 15:00–18:00, closed every Tuesday - 🅿️ No parking available - 📅 Reservations available via Catchtable - 🍾 Corkage available — ₩50,000 per bottle (max 2 bottles) ## Where it is - Allegro (알레그로) - 57-1 3F Olympic-ro 32-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 송파구 올림픽로32길 57-1 3층 - 37.5123328, 127.112566 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%95%8C%EB%A0%88%EA%B7%B8%EB%A1%9C/@37.5123328,127.112566,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@almond-lunch-table/allegro-jamsil-jazz-quartet-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
