Best Seasonal Restaurants in Mt. Washington

Wonderful birthday celebration with our son and the view with snow was amazing!

My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner at Fig and Ash. The crab cake as an appetizer and the meatloaf were standouts, though honestly, the mashed potatoes with the meatloaf may have been the best bite. They were truly excellent. The brownie and ice cream was a great way to finish the meal. We are looking forward to coming back again.

The food (Caesar salads and Beef Wellington) was delicious. Great cocktails and wine. The server was very good and treated us well, which we appreciated, but she was also very busy and so didn’t have time to check in very often. We enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend Meat and Potatoes.

Delicious food- everything on the menu is worth ordering at least once. Beautiful, classy ambience and kind, attentive staff. This restaurant could make anyone fall in love with pasta. By far my family’s favorite place in the city. We recommend the fusilli & the Caesar salad; both are perfectly-executed modern twists on classic Italian dishes (like everything on the menu). Wonderful experience all around every time we go here. Cannot recommend Alta Via enough— it’s worth all the hype and prices.

I have lived in Pittsburgh for 10 years and have visited Altius only 2 times for special occasions. This visit was one of them. I had a reservation and had mentioned a window seat that was honored by the team. We had the lobster gnocchi, chilled oysters and crab toast for appetizers, and skipped mains. All three dishes were delicious and well presented. For drinks, we had a red and white wine from their selection, along with two cocktails (a winter sangria and an old fashioned inspired drink called The Monks Elixir). We picked a coffee inspired desert called Coffee Break, which had coffee ice cream and mousse. Overall, we had a great time, our server was very kind and knowledgeable, and the staff made us feel comfortable. The view, food, and service were 10/10
