The real value here is a very pleasant and quiet setting for a business lunch, and fantastic view! Menu is simple with good options for all dietary needs. Pricing a little high, though expected in a hotel bistro.

We celebrated my wife’s birthday. As always, Altius exceeded expectations. Jaqueline our server was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the menu and specials. We also enjoyed our conversation the manager, Rob. Even the valet, Bobby who was working outside in cold had a great smile and was nice to talk to. Everyone made us feel welcome and added to our experience. The food was just as fabulous as the staff. The caviar, salads, steaks and desserts were all excellent. We can’t wait to return and most importantly my wife enjoyed her birthday night out.

I was happy that the staff was able to accommodate my request of putting the tables together to accommodate my large party and still separating the checks. My mother had done difficulty navigating all the stairs with her cane. The cornbread was drier than I remember, but everyone else seemed to thoroughly enjoy their food. The presentation of the cake was beautiful and my daughter was very happy. Thank you for a great 19th bday experience.
