   A solid downtown lunch experience (which is very hard to find these days)! Exceeded my expectations!

   The fire alarm went off shortly after sitting down. We all had to leave which is totally fair and understandable to maintain safety. However, the restaurant never reached out/communicated further. We went somewhere else for dinner and still haven’t heard from them either way which was disappointing.

   I came with a coworker to celebrate my birthday, and we were really impressed! Emmett was our server, and he was wonderful. He was really helpful and answered all of our questions. He gave great suggestions and was super nice. I got the branzino, and my coworker had the chicken parmesan. Both were excellent, and the chicken was huge. He said it was probably the best chicken parmesan he has ever had. We also really enjoyed the focaccia bread. Definitely recommend a visit!

   Alta Via in Market Square provided another high quality experience. Salmon and Branzino were cooked perfectly. My rating would be 5 stars if the restaurant would change the menu, especially the dessert offerings, at least every few months. Even excellent dishes become boring after several visits to the restaurant. My husband and I live within walking distance of Alta Via, and the restaurant could become our neighborhood favorite if the menu changed a little more often or if specials were offered to mix things up.

   Very good food. Our service was slower than we’d like. We sat with empty drinks for a solid 15 min before our waitress came over to ask if we wanted another round. Then we waited another 10 min for the drinks. There were 3 larger parties surrounding us, which could be why we waited. The parties contained a lot of young kids so a lot of crying, etc. This is no fault to the restaurant just a little snag on our first experience.

    Service from Erin was very good. Drinks and Appetizers were excellent (Calamari and Shrimp, Chopped Salad). Pasta entrees - Cacio e Pepe was good but the meat balls were cold, Pappardelle - pasta was over cooked and the meat was cool and chewy. Tiramisu was overpriced as was the Creme Brulee as it was not set but tasted ok. Latte was very good.
