A Valentine's dinner that did not impress!…read more Valentine's has always been a very special holiday for me. My husband and I decided to spend the weekend in the Berkshires, which was lovely and quiet. I made reservations ahead of time for this highly rated wine bar and very close to where we were staying. First off, due to the previous weather/storms they had no street parking. But luckily we parked in a nearby lot. Upon arrival, the restaurant bar area was very nice and romantic. The server brought us to our table but I was a bit disappointed in the ambiance. I mean the bar area was a bit darker and the table that we were being seated at had a lot of light. Now, don't get me wrong, It was Valentine's day which screams romantic and there was no romantic vibe to this restaurant. After mentioning this to our server she did move us and turned down the lights a bit which was much better. Food/Drinks: The menu was not big at all which was nice. I ordered a dirty martini to start which needed more olive juice and my husband ordered a rum cocktail which he enjoyed. For starters, I ordered their Over Roasted Parsnip which was very good and filling. My husband had their Beet Salad which he said was excellent. For entrees, I had their Seared Duck Breast. I really enjoyed the caramel sauce but did not love the duck itself. My husband had the Oven Roasted Chicken Statler which was very dry he could barley eat it. Also, since this is a wine bar I will say the wines were nothing special which was also a bit disappointing. I wish they had something unique and special to offer especially being on a Valentine's Day. I feel this place may be more of a summer destination. Service: Service was excellent I will say. Our server was always asking how things were, checking on us and if we needed anything and asking about any additional drinks. etc. Also, the Manager came over to ask how everything was but he spefically looked at me. I think my husband would've mentioned his meal being dry if he looked at him as well but my husband could've spoken up too. We did say something to our server after she asked about the chicken dish, which they ended up taken off the bill which was very nice. Overall: I didn't love Alta Wine Bar my first time here, but I would come back in the spring or summer months when the weather is warm to try it again. Cheers~

We ate here tonight and thoroughly enjoyed our meal…read more Our server, Alex M., was personable, welcoming, attentive, and a pleasure to interact with. His professionalism and friendliness truly enhanced the evening. Warm baguette with smooth, lightly salted butter was brought out almost immediately, which was a lovely way to begin the meal. To start, I had the French onion soup while my husband ordered the sesame-crusted tuna. Both dishes were excellent. The soup arrived steaming hot with deep, rich flavor and was wonderfully comforting. Hubby enjoyed the tuna as well. For my main course, I had the wild Gulf shrimp pappardelle with sweet corn, sun gold tomatoes, lemon, and Fresno chili. It was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared -- light without feeling too delicate and packed with vibrant flavors. Hubby ordered the burger without the bun and said it was very good. Overall, a fantastic dinner with attentive service and excellent food.

When we asked why our appetizers had not appeared after 30 minutes we were told the equivalent of "it'll get here when it gets here." No explanation. The tasteless mushroom appetizer was served cold in a plain bowl. The pasta entree was dry and barely hot. There was no effort to compensate our table with any offering. I would never return. Badly done.

We got the truffle fries right away and honestly they were so good, you could smell the parmesan as soon as they came out and they didn't last long at all. Amy got the mashed potato pizza and she liked that a lot. Rick did pepperoni and said it was good, normal pepperoni pizza but wood fired so that nice crust thing. Kevin got pork belly and mushroom pizza and kept saying it was his favorite, it did look really good. I got the crab BLT and it was huge like actually huge, they really do not hold back on the bacon and the chips on the side were warm and we were all just kind of picking at them. It wasn't busy at all when we went in which was nice after being outside all day, and the service was great! We drank a lot of water after all that hiking. We were kind of nervous about being in hiking clothes but it's pretty casual so we were fine.
