Alta Via

Came here for Valentine’s Day and was not disappointed. Their tasting menu was unique, not just your surf & turf sampling. Our waitress Leah was incredibly accommodating and took care of my gluten allergy without issue. Great location, great options and well worth the bill.

Visit #1-- Surprisingly good find among downtown high-end spots! No first come, first serve at the bar - have to have a reservation even for that, odd. A couple spots set empty for a while, even after we had our first course once were seated. Cocktails were ok, bar view isn't greatest facing all what's behind the scenes and appears to be always overwhelmed. One of the salads was decent, mushrooms and pork chops are worth coming back for, not the desert though. No bread was offered or suggestions off of the menu for 1st time visitors nor specials of the night - basically as expected at the bar. Fairly quick service for full-house night. Visit #2-- Returned just a couple nights later and enjoyed everything more thoroughly, so I'm changing my review a bit and adding more pictures :) Our bartender Ernest was at the top of his game. Stake & Calamari are also worth coming back for! Wife's gluten free pasta with mushrooms is a HIT ✅️ Visit #3-- Was as good but dining room servers are less accommodating - it's absurd that you can't get just a side of potatoes from the other dish on the menu, while the place is claiming the ambiance & price tag of a steakhouse. This was rather disappointing when you already spent $150 on a mid-week slow night dinner. Visit #4-- It was our new year's eve dinner 🎄 before the fireworks. 5 out of 5 ✅️ Server Trent was at the top of his game despite fully seated section - accommodated all our requests and checked back in every little while, just as necessary. His recommendation on deserts was excellent, as well as the duck dish i was tempted to try for 3 visits before 🤦‍♂️!!! This is our place of the year for 2023! 1,000% ...cheers! 🥳🥳
