Ilo Bistro - Review - Freemason - Norfolk - The Infatuation

"It’s rare to have a meal with truly no low points, and even rarer to have a meal with no medium points. But Norfolk newcomer Ilo Bistro is constantly outdoing itself with every drink and every course. There’s a mix of inventive and classic European dishes on the menu, like duck rillettes with yuzu kosho and savory honey and prosciutto-topped loukoumades on one end of the spectrum, branzino with swiss chard and gnocchi with asparagus on the other. You can’t go wrong either way, but if lamb ragu pappardelle is your go-to, we’re sorry to say Ilo’s will ruin all others for you. The small, dimly-lit dining room manages to be both romantic and lively, stylish without being trendy. It’s the kind of place to eat with someone you really, really like." - Alicia Camden
