Best KPortal Reviews
We visited this restaurant while on vacation. The views were no doubt some of the best in the city.
The service was on point! The server was knowledgeable about the menu and able to offer wine pairings as well as understanding of gluten allergies. They offered alternatives that were gluten free. I would like to see a dessert option that was gluten free other than ice cream.
I was a little disappointed with the execution of my entree. My duck was over done and at $60, I would expect it to be perfect. I will say that the flavors of the dish were delicious.
My husband’s sea bass was on point! Its presentation was spot on and paired perfectly with the risotto. He also loved the shrimp and scallop appetizer.
Overall a lovely experience.
Arrived a little early. Took advantage of the valet parking and enjoyed bar seating, with very nice service, until our table was ready. All tables on at least the first floor had great views of downtown Pittsburgh and a manager was making rounds checking in on everyone which was excellent. Our food was amazing. Steak and a halibut dish were delicious. The salads were very good. The dessert was gorgeous and I heard another dining on the beauty of hers as well. Excellent service. High end quality without a stuffy atmosphere. Relaxed and contemporary.
Everything about this restaurant is spectacular. The views, the service and the food were all excellent. The complimentary popcorn was so tasty, and the focaccia bread was warm and so good. We loved the sun dried tomato dipping sauce for it. We had the crab toast appetizer which was amazing. The pork chop was the biggest and perfectly cooked I’ve ever seen. The special with crab, scallops and shrimp was perfect. Highly, highly recommend this restaurant for a fine dining experience that won’t disappoint.
This is the best fine dining in Pittsburgh. It has incredible views of the city and the service is phenomenal. The bar is first come first serve if you can't snag a reservation. I highly recommend the off menu specials they are always fantastic. The cocktails are also on point. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.
This is a wonderful place for an enjoyable dining experience. While you wait for your table, they provide a great area for you to enjoy a drink and chat. The dining area is comfortable with beautiful views of the city. The staff is top-notch, with their knowledge of the menu, friendly conversation, and attentiveness to the guests. The food was beyond my expectations. The presentation of each dish and deliciousness of each was worth every penny.
I cannot wait to go back to Altius again. Every single thing we ordered was divine. The service was top notch and the cocktails were some of the best I've ever had. I have been to a couple "fancy" restaurants but this one was more modern and comfortable without the stuffiness of most.
Easily one of the best fine dining experiences we’ve had, and probably our favorite restaurant when we feel like splurging for a cute date night in Pittsburgh! Everything from the popcorn to dessert cocktails is amazing! Honestly I would continue going back for just the service alone. You can tell everyone truly loves what they do there. The lighting is perfect too. Not bright but not pitch black. Also can’t forget about the stellar views. Can’t wait to come back!
Altius boasts all of the makings of a 5-star restaurant, however, they fell slightly short of our expectations with their food. We sat downstairs and the view from the bar and our table was spectacular. We did have a later reservation and I wish we could’ve seen sunset but nevertheless, the views are immaculate of the city of Pittsburgh jf you have a clear night.
The experience was wonderful. Our server was attentive without being overly intrusive of our night, and he was very knowledgeable about all of the dishes and drinks we had requested. Service was a 5/5, as well as the bar drinks.
As for the food, it fell a bit short of our expectations. The complimentary popcorn was to die for - my husband wanted to ask for more it was that good! Appetizers were very good, as well as the dessert, however our main courses were “meh”. Part of my dish was cold while the other side was piping hot… it was a disjointed plate. My husband’s steak lacked any flavor and for the amount you’re paying, it was disappointing. *I will mention that we did go on the Friday of Valentine’s Day weekend (my birthday is unfortunately a few days before) so we weren’t sure if that’s why the food was subpar because the restaurant was packed.
Our meal was almost $500 (with tip) for 2 people so be prepared to spend a pretty penny if you go. I would go again and give them another chance!
