Alo Alo in Mount Pleasant serves diners water and bread before the menu arrives, a touch Sarah (September 2025) said drew a return visit. The kitchen runs from breakfast through dinner across a wide menu; Talent (April 2022) called the chicken salad “also very unique to them, never had such a salad anywhere else”, and Nicole Natsai (January 2025) said the choices weren't “the boring menu items you typically find at most Harare restaurants”.
Several reviewers flag the price, though most say it's worth it. Santana (March 2023) called it “a bit pricey but worth it”, and Tawanda (September 2022) agreed it's “A bit on the pricey side but well worth every cent”. Portions run generous: Sarah (September 2025) found the curry main “all now a bit too much”, and Collins (October 2022) called the portions “Generous”.
The garden setting and staff draw steady praise. Ruvimbo (June 2022) liked that the place “looks like it's got history”, and Jim (July 2022) singled out the pork chops and a mushroom cream pasta as “both tasty and piping hot”. Alo Alo is open Tuesday to Saturday from 09:00 to 22:00, with shorter hours on Sunday and Monday.
