It was my husband and I second time dining at Via Vita for anniversary dinner and we loved. The food, ambiance, and service was amazing. We will definitely dine a third time and beyond. Via Vita location in downtown Cincinnati in front of the water fountain is romantic and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to diners.

Wow! We had no idea what to expect and certainly did not expect some of the most flavorful dishes we have ever had. Service is very good and food comes extremely fast. Highly recommend this restaurant!!

Visited for the first time since the remodel. We loved the new bar and redesigned seating which really opened up the space to the beautiful views of Fountain Square. We arrived 30 minutes in advance of our reservation to enjoy a cocktail at the bar. Our dirty martini and Sgroppino (a delightful blend of grapefruit sorbet and grapefruit vodka with Prosecco) skillfully made by the charming Luke. To start we shared the burrata with charred brocollini, fresh croutons and tomato – definitely shareable and quite delicious. For dinner he enjoyed tagliatelle bolognese which was rich and creamy with a couple of tender veal and ricotta meatballs on the side. My chargrilled octopus was served with crispy potatoes and frisée and was enough for an entree. For dessert we shared the lemon tart with a smooth lemony curd interior and a flaky pastry crust. Service from Presley was spot on. An added bonus was a talented solo guitarist whose music added a lovely finishing touch to the ambience of the restaurant. All in all, a wonderful evening with fabulous service and excellent food. Highly recommend!

Amazing food in a beautiful restaurant at the famous Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati. Make sure you make reservations, especially for a weekend. The lobster risotto was fantastic!

My family of 4 dined here recently on a quick visit. First I will say the location was great because it’s in the middle of an uptown square. That evening a live music show was going on so it was packed and was fun lively entertainment. Now to the food, food honestly was ok. Overpriced in my opinion for what you got. I will say the portions were small and did not include complimentary bread or anything. The entrees did not come with any side either, seems you have to add on everything. So that was a bit of a let down. My husband ordered the lamb shank and loved it. I ordered shrimp but it was very salty. We had our 2 kids bit I don’t feel like this is a “kid friendly” restaurant. The server was very kind & attentive.
