    The food was excellent as always. For the first time in our experience the service was subpar, though remedied by another server stepping in. The restaurant was quite crowded.

    The mafalgini, ravioli and cavetelli were absolutely delicious! The servers were excellent! My only issue was with the music. As a 71 year old, I wasn’t wild about the selections. My husband and I would have enjoyed some kind of jazz more than Elton John and Madonna. Our third time there, and we’ll definitely be back!

    We celebrated my birthday last night. Although we live in South Hills this has become our “go to” for everything! We the burrata to start and tuna tartare. Amazing. I tried a new pasta, the fettuccine with crab. So light. Pasta wasn’t heavy. It was absolutely delicious. Thank you to the staff for always making this a fantastic dining experience. Goes without saying, we will be back!!

    I don’t usually write a lot of reviews but I have to take the time to write this one I have to say I was blown away with the service attitude and the professionalism of a young girl I believe around 19 or 20 her name was Nadia she was outstanding in a world where no one wants to work everyone has a bad attitude and is angry this young lady was a breath of fresh air her attention to detail knowledge of the menu and the level of professionalism for someone that young was outstanding I’m so grateful to see there are still young people in this world that care, work hard, and make others experiences enjoyable thanks again Nadia for making our dining experience A wonderful one!

    Small menu with thoughtfully prepared ala carte items including appetizers, salads, entrees and pasta. Pasta is offered in both small and full-sized portions, a bonus! A small portion plus an appetizer provides a nice meal with room left over for their outstanding olive oil cake. The baby artichokes are excellent. Service is always exceptional.

    This was my second time dining at the restaurant. My husband and I had a very nice round booth in the back. Our server was nice and professional. The cocktails are well made. The focaccia bread served with sides of butter, olive oil and sea salt is delicious but, the star of the night was the mafaldini. The sauce was incredible and it’s topped with amazing creamy ricotta and fried rosemary. I will definitely be coming back for this dish again.

    Amazing attentive service from start to finish. Immediately greeted and seated for our reservation on time. Our server introduced herself within 30 seconds of being seated. The cocktails are OUTSTANDING. Had the mafaldini - again, OUTSTANDING. My husband ordered the Salmon - his review, one of the best dishes he has ever had as well. Will definitely dine here again. Excellent wine list! The BEST find this side of the city ! Alta Via is a MUST

    The music was horrible. No attempt to match the restaurant genre with the music. Also, baseball hats are antithetical to fine dining. Forbid it and enforce it.

    We had another amazing experience at Alta Via! We enjoyed the mushroom and buratta for appetizers. The mushroom preparation was very unique and tasty. We also had the salmon and the beet salad for our entree. Both were amazing and perfectly prepared! Thanks AV for the $30 off birthday entree!!! Great service! We'll be back!
