Allegro was a top restaurant in Four Seasons hotel in Prague, which is now closed. The restaurant served mainly Italian and also Bohemian food.[1] In 2008 it became the first restaurant from the post-communist bloc to obtain the star from the prestigious Michelin Guide.[2][3] In 2009,[3] 2010[4] and 2011,[5] Allegro retained its star.

It was the only restaurant in Prague with the accolade, although in 2010 a restaurant in Hungary was awarded the star, ending Allego's claim as the only restaurant from the Eastern Bloc to have the star.[5]

The head chef was Andrea Accordi,[3] who won his second Michelin star at the time Allegro won its first.[1]
