Exceptional Fine Dining Italian Restaurant
Aleo assimilate the cultures of Italy, and the sumptuous flavors of the beautiful Mediterranean. Come visit Aleo and experience some wonderful food while dinning to the sounds of Sinatra, Gypsy Kings, Luis Miguel, and the like. You can view the photos of Pete's Dad with his pals at Raos's restaurant in East Harlem, NYC, and Pete's Mom with her girlfriends at Orchard Beach, in the Bronx. The respect and pride in the name is depicted in the service and food in this beautiful space.
Pietro has brought his best and favorite family recipes to the forefront. Peter has joined his Southern Italian family's heritage with those of his favorites from a true New York upbringing. His many years living in Astoria, Queens brings the flavors of the Eastern Meditteranean with Greek and Cyprian infusions, and his education in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and The Bronx have allowed him to meld into the menu some Israeli, and Arabic favorites. ALEO Restaurant & Bar showcases many innovative Mediterranean flavors while holding to then savory and substantial flavors of Italy. A warm and inviting fine dining atmosphere, with impeccable service and attention to detail being the hallmarks of the ALEO experience. Treat yourself to expertly prepared fresh seafood dishes, original pasta creations, prime cut meats and signature starters including homemade hummus, caponata, & almond crusted calamari to mention a few while surrounded with works of art, nostalgic pictures and soft music.
The cuisine is Italian with emphasis on Mediterranean featured ingredients, which you would find along the shores of Europe's most famous Sea. We feature dishes to soothe a light afternoon desire or a meal of substance for the evening. The pasta alone will have you eating the sauce with your spoon once you are done. The New Zealand lamb and the fresh fish dishes will transport your senses. The rib eye steak is a portion and price to make the big beef restaurants wonder how they do it. There are salads of substance, mouth-watering risotto, and flatbread pizza(s) made with fresh tomatoes, proscuitto, and cheeses that are reminiscent of the lands and regions in the Mediterranean.
If there is something you prefer which is off the menu, our chef and staff will gladly accommodate you whether the dish is an old favorite or something new. Based upon ingredient availability we will entertain your utmost culinary desire. Aleo customizes menus for private parties, and will make any dish you ask for to allow your dining experience to be a satisfying one.
The name ALEO is derived from the parents of the owner (Peter). The "A" in Aleo is from Antoinette, Pete's mother and the "Leo" is from his father, Leonardo. Antoinette is a retired New York City schoolteacher who has roots from Bari, (in Puglia) Italy, Leonardo is a retired mason/bricklayer. Peter (or Pietro) is the host of this beautiful place that boasts an award winning garden.
