So, there is a beautiful scenic hike from New Hope to Stockton . About one hour and 15 minutes walk. We did that and enjoyed the beautiful colors and lights . Got to Stockton , got a beer at the local brewery. The plan was to get an Uber back …NO drivers around , phone is 1% only , it is getting dark and cold . Boyfriend wants me to walk back another hour and change to the car. No, thank you. He goes. I stay and entered this cozy, romantic restaurant, explained the situation . Not only did they get me a charger for my phone , but allowed me to sit and sip wine while waiting for my rescuer. While waiting , I ordered the truly delicious Fennel Salad (Finocchio) accompanied by freshly baked rosemary bread with extra virgin olive oil. Trying to be supportive , I call and recite the menu for him. He asks me to put the order for the Grilled salmon with basil lemon sauce ,and I will have the Pet mussels. When he arrives from his adventure , the warm and nicely cooked meal is waiting for us. What a treat! Great food, accommodating , kind and sympathetic service makes up for our miscalculated expedition! I recommend Via Ponte , predicament or not !

Via Ponte is a wonderful BYOB. The mussels appetizer was excellent. The pizza was even better. Outstanding thin crust, perfectly crispy. I can’t wait to go back again!

We came across this restaurant by accident and WHAT A FIND! Super friendly staff ( and the owner) and what a great dinner! The food was simply delicious, well presented accompanied by fresh baked Italian bread. A liquor store next door where we got a wine to accompany our seafood dinners. Clearly the shrimp and a whole fish (skinned at the table at our request) were super fresh and perfectly cooked. Our new place frequently go – well worth the trip! We decided to sit at an outdoor table. Next time we’ll try indoors.

After looking at all the 4 + star reviews, I’m wondering if we ate in the same restaurant. This was one of the worst dining experiences we have ever had….
Since we knew it was BYOB, we stopped next-door and got a nice Chardonnay. Upon our arrival we asked the (only) waitress for glasses and and ice bucket and to open our bottle. She failed miserably and put the bottom part of the cork IN the bottle. She did attempt to decant the wine but failed there, too. Her solution was to suggest that we cap the first bottle and go buy another. At no point did she offer to make good on the bottle SHE ruined. That should have been our first red flag.
We decided to stay and ordered appetizers…My Caesar salad was OK, but my girlfriend’s Calamari was rubbery (according to her..I don’t touch that stuff) and the marinara sauce was watery and seemed like Hunt’s Tomato sauce mixed with water (Red flag #2).
Her Chicken Marsala was OK, but again the side pasta was served with that same marinara. Ditto for my pasta. Although we placed our order around 6:15, we were not served until almost 7:15. Sure we were on a mini-vacation and had nowhere to go but back to our room, but still….
And lastly, it seemed a chore for her to remember that we had asked for extra ice for our water. Additionally, the temperature of the dining room was kinda warm for July (RF#3)
Suffice to say, we will not be going back

What a great Italian Restaurant that is BYOB. We had lovely greens for a salad. The bread was homemade and right out of the oven. We had a margarita pizza tasted like it was cooked in a brick oven. They give you a lot of cheese. The eggplant parmigiana was wonderful and the chicken Marsala was cooked to perfection. The tomato sauce was homemade. The atmosphere was quiet and romantic.

We were on vacation. We were hungry after traveling all day and decided to stop by this restaurant. The reviews seemed pretty good. Now I wished I would’ve actually read them. I want to say the server was VERY nice. He was attentive. That is not the reason for the 1-star. We debated a little bit about what to get on the menu, but we ended up deciding on two chicken pasta dishes. The server asked if we wanted the pasta first or with our meal; we said with our meal. We waited so long for our food, the server came over 3x to apologize. There was 1 other table in there when we arrived. 1 other table seated when we were leaving, so in total, there were 3 tables and ours was the only one waiting on a meal. While waiting, we heard a woman screaming in the kitchen, which made my husband and I stop our conversation to listen. Then our food came out. It was so disappointing. First of all, our dishes looked almost the same (besides one that had a little bit of cheese on the chicken) although we ordered entirely different dishes. Secondly, there was about 10 ziti noodles scattered in the sauce (which was basically wine) on each of our plates. The chicken didn’t even come on top of the pasta. It was barely a side of pasta — I don’t know what this server would’ve bought out had we asked for the pasta beforehand. I couldn’t finish eating the chicken because it was rubbery, but we ate everything else on our plates because we were so hungry. I wish we would’ve taken a photo. For $25+ dollars for each dish, it was totally not worth it. To say that we were disappointed is a total understatement. We left hungry and actually had to order food from another restaurant. I’m not sure if we went on an “off” day or what. We felt bad for the server because it was not his fault. Based off of this experience, I would not recommend and would not return.

Incredible food. Beautiful Artwork. Loved the jazz music. staff was so kind and helpful. Definitely recommend. I hesitate getting Italian food anywhere outside of my mom’s home cooked Italian food but this was so delicious. Calamari was fresh and lightly breaded. Pasta and dessert were yummy yummy.

I had a small birthday party here for a loved one, and everything was lovely. The restaurant is homey and welcoming. We were the only table outside on a busy Friday night, but the waitstaff was attentive and very friendly. Every dish we ordered was delicious and beautiful, especially the homemade pasta. I very much appreciated that our server took our cake to light the candles so we could sing Happy Birthday as he brought it back out. Well done to the waitstaff and back of house 🙂
