    The food, ambiance, and view were absolutely amazing. I was visiting from out of state and I really enjoyed dinner. Happy I found this place. The oysters were delicious and fresh. Went there with a friend and we both got the sea bass and it was AMAZING! My friend stated they think that was the best sea bass they ever had. The restaurant is small and intimate so it can get a bit loud depending on where you’re seated and how loud the patrons talk. It was a bit sensory overload for me at times. But other than that it was perfect. Would definitely come back when in town.

    first time we ate here was seven years ago and it was a special night of great food & striking atmosphere. second time was last night and it's even better than before. PERFECT place for a special night out. A splurge to be sure, but worth it. The views. The staff. The food. ALL top-notch. Can't wait to return, hopefully sooner than seven years from now.

    Truly one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. We were in town with three other couples for the U.S. Open and read about Altius. It's hard to believe that the restaurant's food and service would easily outweigh the amazing view overlooking downtown Pittsburgh, but it does. It is simply an incredible restaurant. You will not be disappointed!
