Allegria, Ocean Reef
Allegria is a family run cafe, in the Ocean Reef shopping centre on Constellation Drive. As part of my quest to find Perth’s best Sunday roast, we decided to give Allegria a try. The roast is available from 4pm on Sundays, and there’s a Happy Hour between 5pm and 6pm.
Allegria is about much more than Sunday roasts, it’s a cafe, open from breakfast through to dinner, and has a wood fired pizza oven. They host theme nights (a recent one was a mexican night), and Paul the owner boasts that they make amazing coffee along with the tastiest pizzas around.
We dined for the roast beef and it was nice to see that the menu included other options – we could have also had chicken, pork, snapper or a beef rendang. There seems to be something for everybody. The wine list as also good, and I started with a prosecco, my partner choosing a lemon lime bitters.
When the lady took our order the overriding feeling was that this is a restaurant that cares about its customers. She explained everything really well, and we anticipated our roast beef with excitement. The ambience was really chilled and the young girls next to us were tucking into a delicious looking pizza, while the couple the other side were enjoying some very generous and yummy looking desserts.
When the plate arrived it didn’t disappoint. The beef was incredibly good quality, really tender and perfectly cooked. Accompanied by carrot, greens, broccolini, roasties and a superbly mutant yorkie it was delicious from the first mouthful to the last. We didn’t have to ask for sauces, we were given horseradish and hot mustard. One very minor criticism – I prefer to pour my own gravy, but luckily this was nicely distributed just as I like it.
Sadly we didn’t have room for dessert, but we will be back to try their other offerings and for several more Sunday dinners. This is the winner – Perth’s best Sunday roast!
Last visit – we’ll be back but this visit was September 2023
