I booked a hall seat and paired puttanesca, prosciutto potato salad, and sous-vide pork shoulder steak with glasses of red wine while watching the first and second sets. The anchovy pasta was clean and never fishy, which made it the highlight, and the place suited an evening when you want to dress up the mood, like a date or anniversary. ## Good to know - **Location**: 57-1 Olympic-ro 32-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, 3rd floor (238m from Songparu Station Exit 2, 3-minute walk) - **Hours**: 12:00–23:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–18:00 - **Last order**: 21:30 - **Closed**: Every Tuesday - **Parking**: Not available - **Show times**: Set 1: 19:30–20:10 (40 min), Set 2: 20:25–21:05 (40 min) - **Live charge**: ₩10,000 per person on weekdays / ₩15,000 on Fri–Sat - **Happy hour**: Lunch pasta ₩16,000, 15% off entire menu - **Order details**: Live charge for 2: ₩20,000, sous-vide pork shoulder steak ₩33,000, prosciutto potato salad ₩18,000, puttanesca ₩19,000, 2 glasses of red wine ₩24,000 - **Wine**: Red or white, ₩12,000 per glass - **Seating**: Hall seats, terrace seats *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* Today's story is about Allegro, an Italian dining spot where you can enjoy delicious food together with a live jazz performance :) It has pasta, steak, and wine all in one place, so it was a great pick when I wanted a meal with a different kind of atmosphere. ![Main photo of Allegro, an Italian dining spot near Songparu Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-01-1tzws-1200.webp) ## Allegro's location and business info - Location: 57-1 Olympic-ro 32-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul (238m from Songparu Station Exit 2, 3-minute walk) - Hours: 12:00–23:00 - Break time: 15:00–18:00 - Last order: 21:30 - Closed: Every Tuesday - No parking available ![Exterior of the building where Allegro is located](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-02-1lh09-727.webp) Allegro was pretty accessible, about a 3-minute walk from Songparu Station, and it's on the 3rd floor of a newly built building. ![Entrance to Allegro on the 3rd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-03-1lqph-900.webp) Step out of the elevator and you're greeted by a stylish poster showing September's lineup of performers. ![September jazz performer lineup poster near the elevator](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-04-7ttzn-900.webp) ![Allegro's show lineup poster with entrance signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-05-18x3u-900.webp) ## Hall seats or terrace seats — which is better? You can choose between hall and terrace seating. I booked a hall seat since I wanted to watch the jazz performance. ![Hall seating at Allegro with the jazz stage visible](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-06-17zba-900.webp) ![Table layout inside Allegro's hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-07-mdx6z-900.webp) ## Show times, live charge, and lunch happy hour The performance runs in two sets: 19:30–20:10 (40 minutes) and 20:25–21:05 (40 minutes). The live charge is ₩10,000 per person on weekdays and ₩15,000 on Fridays and Saturdays :) There was also a lunch happy hour event running — ₩16,000 pasta and 15% off the entire menu. The menu could be ordered from tablets set up at the table. Each item came with a photo and description, so it was easy to choose even on a first visit. ![Menu screen on the tablet at Allegro](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-08-awp1k-905.webp) ![Tablet menu with food photos and descriptions](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-09-6salm-905.webp) The wine selection was quite varied too. Both red and white were available by the glass, at ₩12,000 each. ![List of wines available by the glass](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-10-vxqa8-647.webp) ![Wine menu screen at Allegro](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-11-kkig3-900.webp) ## What we ordered for two I ordered the live charge for two (₩20,000), sous-vide pork shoulder steak (₩33,000), prosciutto potato salad (₩18,000), puttanesca (₩19,000), and two glasses of red wine (₩24,000)! ![Two glasses of red wine on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-12-1e56h-900.webp) ### Glass of red wine, Terroir Pays Cachet Dinner started properly with the red wine we ordered! Not too sweet, with tannins that weren't too strong, the Terroir Pays Cachet paired well with pretty much everything on the table :) It went nicely with both the pasta and the steak. ![Glass of Terroir Pays Cachet red wine](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-13-jmxea-900.webp) ![Red wine served alongside the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-14-1mcw6-849.webp) ### Pre-meal bread: house-made focaccia Focaccia came out as the pre-meal bread. Because it's house-made, the texture was soft and fluffy! It was even better eaten warm, haha. ![House-made focaccia served as pre-meal bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-15-9e7u1-851.webp) A delicious meal paired with the show :) ![Table setting at Allegro during the show](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-16-1w1ia-786.webp) ### Prosciutto potato salad The prosciutto potato salad is a Piedmont-style salad with potatoes tossed in cream cheese and horseradish sauce, topped with prosciutto. ![Piedmont-style potato salad topped with prosciutto](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-17-1n1f2-900.webp) The nutty potatoes dipped in the sauce were delicious, and eating them with the prosciutto added a salty note that worked really well. A great, light dish to pair with wine! ![A plate of potato and prosciutto served up together](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-18-tnxbf-785.webp) ### Puttanesca The puttanesca is an oil-based pasta capturing the Neapolitan flavors of olive, anchovy, caper, and tomato. ![Puttanesca pasta with olives and anchovies](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-19-1mult-900.webp) It was my first time trying pasta with anchovies in it, so I was a little worried, but it wasn't fishy at all — the oil base kept it clean and light. ![A plate of puttanesca with arugula and eggplant](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-20-jd9fs-855.webp) With arugula, eggplant, and olives all mixed in, the way the ingredients came together was great, and personally, this was my favorite of the three dishes, haha. ![Puttanesca pasta twirled on a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-21-8nn5t-900.webp) ### Sous-vide pork shoulder steak The sous-vide pork shoulder steak is made with domestic pork shoulder (300g), sous-vide cooked, then seared crispy and served with peppercorn sauce. ![Sous-vide pork shoulder steak with peppercorn sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-22-19ysv-900.webp) Maybe because it was sous-vide, the pork shoulder wasn't dry at all — both the lean meat and fat were tender. And the portion was fairly generous too, so it was good to share between two, haha. The peppercorn sauce was so creamy and delicious, and it went really well with the meat, haha. With the jazz performance alongside, it was a time that pleased both the eyes and the mouth :) ![The jazz stage in action at Allegro](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-23-119z5-900.webp) ![Atmosphere in Allegro's hall during the performance](https://img.superchart.com/images/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner-24-1my9g-900.webp) ## Jazz even in the restroom — the little details Inside there are separate restrooms for men and women, kept neat and clean. They even had mouthwash ready, which was nice to use after the meal. Fitting for a dining restaurant with live jazz, speakers were even installed inside the restroom, playing music softly — it felt like they'd thought about every little detail, haha. ## When is a good day to visit Allegro? Allegro let me enjoy a delicious meal alongside a jazz performance, making for an evening a bit different from usual :) The menu range was solid, from pasta and steak to salad and wine, and best of all was being able to enjoy the live performance comfortably while eating. It's easy to get to from Songparu Station, so I'd recommend it if you're looking for a good restaurant in Songpa, or want to visit on a day when you want to set a special mood, like a date or an anniversary :) ## Where it is - Allegro (알레그로) - 57-1 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/@midnight-napkin/allegro-songpa-putanesca-jazz-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
