VIA VAI is a Chef-Owner run restaurant, serving contemporary and authentic Italian food that one would find in the best restaurants and trattorie in today's Italy.

The restaurant is rustic cozy and charming, with a slate and marble top bar serving only select Italian wines, and local and imported tap and bottled beer, that pair perfectly with the artisanal food prepared every day on the premises, and the brick oven roman-style (thin crust) pizza cooked in the imported Italian oven.

Chef-owner Antonio Morichini is Roman born and bred. He did his culinary education and training in Italy, working in some of the best Michelin-starred restaurants in Rome. His food is loyal to tradition, but forward looking.

Indoor and Outdoor Dining Available, weather permitted.

Via Vai certainly delivered. We had a table of 6 mid afternoon on Easter. The space is great. The service was wonderful. Attentive with great wine recommendations. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and we managed to hit a pretty good cross section of the menu for both apps and entrees. We couldn’t stop sharing and spearing from each other’s plates. Can’t even pick out favorites, it was all great!

The only criticism would be that the portions were VERY small. I would gladly have paid a little more for each item, if it would have meant receiving more on each plate. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable experience.

Felt like i was sitting in a cafeteria tablr and bench next to other guests. I was so close to the next table I could smell the guy's awful breath. I have been here before and it was really great, but for the holiday they overbooked the restaurant and the food quality really suffered.

We were there for about 2 hours and no one ever came over to our table to ask how the food was or if we needed anything. Food took a full hour to come. We sat for about 15 min clearly finished with our food, no one offered to take the plates, or ask if we wanted coffee or desert so we finally just asked for a check to leave. Food was very subpar for the price range. If it was cheaper I would probably have a better opinion. Very disappointing after waiting so long since moving to Astoria to try this place I really had high hopes and aside from the very nice decor and ambiance it was definitely a let down.

Had the beet & arugula salad, mussels homemade paste special and scallops. Each one better than the next. Tiramisu and gelato and dessert wine also phenomenal. Ambiance is great. Highly recommend!!

They do notate this on their menu so I was prepared to be here for two hours with my husband. The homemade pasta is delicious and the gelato….. AMAZING. I definitely suggest making a reservation ahead of time because there’s only about 12-15 tables total in the restaurant. We made a reservation and had no issues.
