    The view is amazing but the food and service might actually be better. It’s expensive but we only come here on special occasion. We’ve never been sorry about our decision.

The food, service, ambience, view of Pittsburgh, professionalism of the staff - from desk to server - have always been Michelin-caliber. Go there!

    Our meals were delicious with each item having a long list of complementary ingredients and flavors. The halibut and duck entrees were executed perfectly and thoroughly enjoyed. The Thai colossal crab soup was delicious, but the crab was anything but "colossal". I should have been wary when, after placing my order, the waiter immediately asked if I would like extra crab added to the dish. The soup was already $18 for an appetizer portion, so I declined indicating that I would like to enjoy the soup as the chef prepared and intended it to be plated. When it was presented there were two 3/4 inch long, very thin flakes of crab placed on the bottom of the bowl onto which the creamy Thai soup was poured. Unlike any crab soup previously enjoyed, there was no taste of crab, but the spicy Thai soup was delicious. Otherwise, our evening of elevated dining was very enjoyable.

    The focaccia, bao buns and Chilean sea bass were all wonderful. The service was flawless.

    Took a friend from out of town who had never been to Pittsburgh. Altius was perfect. The cuisine is fantastic, the service is impeccable and the view can't be beat. Great place to bring out of towners.
