Elegant setting, perfect for a special meal. We went there for Valentine’s day dinner and it was really nice meal. They were serving 3-course for $85 dinner, which included also chef special appetizer of day and after dinner home made chocolates sand sweets. The wine cellar is extraordinary, stylized dining room is surrounded with cascades of wine and Alto features a selection of over 2500 different wines.
The food was great, the portions was good size, every course was delicious and different, perfect New Italian food and very good service. This is restaurant for fancy taste and it’s expensive, but worst trying.
