Good service and food. There were a few meat items that were unavailable which was disappointing but the fam all loved their respective pasta dishes. Dessert list was limited but the chocolate cake and blueberry mascarpone cake were both favorites.

The service was incredibly slow, it took 2 hours for 3 family dishes. The food wasn’t bad, but for the price it was not worth it at all. The anchovies in the ceaser salad was completely unwarranted. I wish I could give this a better review but Im thoroughly underwhelmed.

We’ve been here multiple times when the previous owners ran and it was always ok, not great, not terrible. New owners definitely stepped it up a bit. We were a party of 15. Food was really good and service was also good. The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars is cost. We ordered pretty perfectly for the 15 of us, i.e. apps and dinners (4 of each), no dessert and two $50 bottles of wine. Cost was just shy of $100 per person, kids included. We would have preferred to be able to order off regular menu, but understand because of the size of our party why we could not. However,we felt the large party menu was a little pricey compared to the regular menu. We’ll go back, but in a smaller party.

We ordered a cocktail and shared PEI mussels and Pasta Bolognese for dinner. The waiter brought out bread and olives that were delicious. Both the appetizer and the meal were very good and sharing was the way to go as the portions were large. Surprised that the restaurant was empty and the prices of the entrees were steep. However we really enjoyed after a day of skiing.

Best dinner we had during our ski trip! Really enjoyed my rack of lamb with chimichurri sauce. My friends remarked on how their steaks were the best they’ve had in recent memory. Service was excellent – when our waiter found out we were celebrating, he gave us Prosecco on the house! Nice atmosphere as well. Would definitely recommend this place.

Service was slow, but friendly (2 hour meal but understandable for new place), but then the steak i ordered came out and a “14 oz. NY Strip” was thin, small, and overcooked. The pasta dishes the rest of our group ordered were much better and the apps and drinks were great! Seems like they have work to do but there is potential here for an alternative to the normal Okemo old-school Vermont vibe but definitely needs to improve before we return (especially at the premium prices they want this to be!)

I think the staff was doing their best, but the place was understaffed. The hostess was not friendly though.
The way our food came was very hectic, a lot of them were wrong and had to be fixed. Some of the things were tasty, so that’s why it is not a 1 star review. Some of the things were misleading though. The lobster was not fresh, and the mussels were cooked too much.
I think this place would be a lot better if there is a change in management to be honest.

Had our first but not our last dinner at Alta. We were not diverse in our ordering as my husband and I got the lobster pasta and our friends both got the pork chops. It is so hard not to overcook pasta and I must say, it was spot on and our friends loved the chops and the fact that they got so many sauces to pair with them. The chopped salad was delicious and the meatball appetizer was a nice starter. Everyone was very attentive and the night was enjoyed by all. We will be back.

Disappointingly understaffed when visiting on March 26th, whereas a visit a few weeks earlier was much smoother. We were a large group (14) and both the front of house staff and kitchen staff must have been struggling as it took more than 3 hours from sitting down to getting our check for a single course and we were given little attention throughout, including too long a wait for drinks orders to be taken and bread to be provided.
We were told service would be slow, but nobody has time for 3+ hours for one course especially when other aspects like drink service was slow too.
While the recent visit was max 3 stars, I’ve given it 4 as previously we had a good time here. With the right number of staff (or, a limitation on the number of reservations more appropriate for current staff levels) this place would probably be a consistent good bet.

Bad service not great food and extremely overpriced. They claim all the pasta is homemade but they’d charge 36$ for a penne vodka that comes out of a batiks box. Took over an hour after ordering to get our food and cancelled our appetizers because they never came.
