    Have been there several times with great service and food. This last time it took awhile to even get seats at the bar while waiting for our table. Bar service was slow. Once seated it took awhile for our apps and meals.

    Exceptional, elegant, outstanding. Our waiter Gregory was pleasant, courteous, gracious, considerate, thoughtful, understanding, accommodating, attentive and professional. Every dish of the Feast of the Seven Fishes was exceptional. Chef was superb. Staff was superb. Waiter was superb. Bartender that prepared our Old Fashion Bourbon was the best of the best. We genuinely hope that everyone has the best of holidays.

    Brunch only on Sunday’s, which was very good. Just severely understaffed. They tried as hard as they could. Good spot with very good food. I’d recommend trying it if you are around the Fairmont or Market Square.

    The hostess seated us right where we could view the Christmas tree in the square. The service was very good, and the food was delicious and hot from the oven.

    This was our first time eating at Alta Via. My son and his wife were visiting from out of town for the holidays, and I wanted to treat them to a special meal before we attended the theater. From the moment we arrived, everything was outstanding: seating us at just the right table, explaining the menu and wine list, and helping us pick just the right appetizers and entrées. Our waitress, Sammy, was fantastic. Every part of our meal, from the wine to our appetizers of buratta and olives, our entrées, and the tiramisu we shared, we’re incredibly delicious. We’ll be back … soon!
