We had a wonderful time celebrating birthday dinner at this beautiful restaurant. The ambiance is lovely, with a great vibe that makes for a perfect dining experience.
We started with Brussels Sprouts, which were incredibly tasty. For mains, we ordered the Ravioli- delicious but on the heavier side and the fusilli pasta, which was okay. We ended the meal with tiramisu which was decent but didn’t stand out.
What truly elevated the experience, was the outstanding service. Our host was attentive, checked on us frequently and provided great recommendations. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for a nice dinner, and we enjoyed our time there.
Would recommend reservation as the place gets busy.

Food took longer than normal as we were the second couple in the restaurant for dinner this evening. I came here about a month ago & food came out much sooner. They like if you order everything at once. Food is very good. Portions are good. Options are good.

Alta Via is easily my third favorite Italian restaurant in Pittsburgh, and I absolutely love it. Every pasta dish I’ve tried has been phenomenal, with the fusilli in vodka sauce being my personal favorite. One thing to note is that some of their pasta dishes don’t come with the traditional red or white sauces, so just be aware of that when you’re ordering.
We also tried the chicken parmesan, which comes in a huge portion that’s definitely big enough for two people to share if you’re not looking to order separate entrées. And I have to mention their meatballs—they’re absolutely incredible. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot that’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in the mood for Italian!

Visited this location for dinner on a Tuesday. We didn’t have a reservation and were able to be seated right away. It did take a while for anyone to approach our table, but our server was quite friendly. We ordered some cocktails and started with the Caesar salad which was fresh and tasty. He also brought out the housemade focaccia. For entrees, I had the salmon, which was well prepared and had an overall nice flavor with the romesco sauce and accompaniments. My friend had a half portion of the fusilli pasta with vodka sauce and the beans & greens. Pasta was good, but the beans & greens were better! It seemed the menu was still very cold weather focused and I would’ve loved to see some spring dishes! We shared an olive oil cake for dessert, which unfortunately was a bit dry for $13 cake. Overall though a decent meal.

First time at Alta Via and we had a wonderful dinner experience. Our waiter made a special effort explaining the menu and suggested we share items to get a fuller range of tastes of their foods, especially the pastas. From the Roasted Beet salad, to the Tagliatelle pasta, to the Taramisu, we shared and thoroughly enjoyed our dinners. We can’t wait to go back and try more menu items.

Delicious dinner at Alta Via with Edward as server! Highly recommend the tuna tartare to start and a salad which can be shared by two if you plan to have a full sized entree. Lots of good pasta dishes to choose from. Only a 4 for service because hostesses are always indifferent and unaccommodating. This is a customers first point of contact – a customers first impression. I’m not sure what these young girls seating customers are not taught this. (FYI – This is our experience each and every time we visit – underwhelming, cold greeting and treatment from them.) Otherwise, top notch. Love our server, Edward!

My wife and I went for out anniversary last night. Never been there before. Definitely need a reservation. Close sitting. Would hav liked a little more intimacy, but…..
Staff was wonderfull. Food was very good. Larger portions considered “Sharable” seemed to be “a la carte”. Had to order pasta on the side. Rigatoni seemed over cooked.

Great ambiance! 2nd visit here. Ordered the butternut squash ravioli, fusilli and Brussel sprouts. The ravioli was good but not a lot of flavor. The foccacia bread was amazing! Many places that serve foccacia don’t do a great job. The fusilli was very tasty and the whipped marscapone was the perfect fit. Server was friendly, but I did have a wait a bit for a refill on my drink even though he walked by several times. Decor is great and it’s very cozy! Also, love that you can order the small or large portions. Great option!

This was hands down one of the greatest experiences I have ever had at a restaurant. The atmosphere is second to none, this is a perfect place for a date, family dinner, friends or business dinner. After being seated we were shown the menus with multiple food and drink options. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the entire menu. It was very easy to order due to our servers. (Thanks Dustin) I can’t wait to come back up here to come to this place again next time I’m back in town.
