A nice Italian restaurant in Worcester, especially if you're celebrating a special occasion or looking to have a business lunch.While I personally think there are better options for Italian food in the area (for a more affordable price), via is a consistent Italian restaurant in the area. I specifically appreciate the ambiance and service of the restaurant, which makes it great for special occasions. I've been here a dozen or so times for various occasions, and some of my favorite items include the meatball sandwich, chicken parm. Their fries are shockingly one of my favorite foods there.Now, my partner and I prefer to go here for dessert instead, as they have a variety of delicious gelatos.

Via Italian Table is one of the more upscale restaurants that Worcester has to offer. I came here with a few friends that live in the city & I am not sure how to feel about their food. Ambiance & Decor: Interior is very beautiful and has a nice vibe. Made it seem like the food was going to be promising and good. Food: We started off with the caesar salad. This was the first time I was served salad with a whole romaine lettuce & had to chop by myself. I didn't mind it to be honest, just very different. For an entree, I had the bucatini with vodka sauce. I don't know... I wasn't impressed. Sauce tasted like it was from the jar & not flavorful... quite bland. For the price of their food, I had higher expectations. I will say, their espresso martini was solid. Probably the only thing I would come back for.

These 2 stars are for: The hostesses accommodating us when I inadvertently checked-in for my reservation to their restaurant instead of One Eleven Chop House. The man was even nice enough to cancel my reservation for me & we were promptly seated. The food & drinks tasted good but were overpriced for the portion size & what came with it.. Our waitress Clara came over in a reasonable time. She told us she & Alex are working together & asked what kind of water we wanted to drink. She returned with them in under 10mins & asked what we wanted to drink. We asked for a few more minutes since we didn't know the drinks were on the other side. Approximately 20mins goes by as we watched current diners & a new table seated near us being waited on multiple times by Carla & Alex. Even a new table near us was given their bread & oil & receiving their drinks before us. At one point, while Carla was talking to Alex, she gestured over in our direction (the corner), he turned & looked our way. But no one came over at that moment while we just sat with only glasses of water. By the time she came over, we gave our drink order & decided to give her the meal order as well. She returned within a few minutes, dropped off the bread & straight plain olive oil & jetted off again. No offer of fresh parm cheese like the new table had received. Another woman brought us our drinks after a bit. A second new table (larger group) was seated on the opposite side of us. Our salads came & my friend asked if there was dressing on it. We were told it was a balsamic vinaigrette, offered & accepted the fresh grated parm cheese. We couldn't see or taste a stitch of dressing, so we both had to drizzle plain olive oil for the bread, onto the dry salad. I continued to notice the frequency that Carla & Alex were at the other tables. At one point, while trying to get to the new table next to us, Alex bumped our table. Not a single apology was given! Our meals came in a reasonable time after the salads. Of note, I'm always surprised when I've order a meal with fries & not offered ketchup if it's not on the table or anything else. On her way by, Carla did ask if everything was ok. We said yes. I decided I didn't need the ketchup or wanted to wait for it. We ate about 1/2 our meal since we basically had the bread & salad so close to our meal. Carla boxed our leftovers, we decided against the dessert or coffee & got the check. Not one time did Alex come to our table except to bump into it. After my observations during our 1hr 20mins (no intentional delays on our part), that will be the last time I patron this restaurant. I have waitressed in the past, so I'm familiar with the role. I'm not expecting special treatment, but I expect the same level of interaction & customer service as the other patrons. We might not have looked like it, but when we receive that, we go above & beyond on our bills!

This is by far one of my favorite places to eat in Worcester. The food is top-notch, the service is attentive, and the atmosphere is perfect for enjoying a great meal and conversation. I highly recommend trying the meatballs as an appetizer. I had the salmon, which was excellent, but the Bolognese is outstanding as well.

We chose Via Italian Table for a post-graduation celebration and it didn't disappoint.After a short wait at the bar to access our table (for an 8 pm reservation), we were seated in a cozy semi-circle booth. It took a bit too long to get our ordered drinks, but the rest of the evening went great!Our waitstaff was attentive and checked in regularly. For a party of 5, the meals were delivered in a timely way.The food was delicious. Entrees come with either soup or salad and I enjoyed Chicken orzo soup. My herb-encrusted Halibut was wonderful, accompanied by asparagus in a tasty Parmesan coating and oven-roasted potatoes. We were pleasantly surprised and touched when our graduates were presented with gratis gelato. We also had some of the best Tiramisu I've ever tasted! The chocolate torta was rich but a bit dry.Overall a great dining experience.

A M A Z I N G The atmosphere is great: comfortable, charming, and energetic and the food is even better. The calamari is fresh, the octopus is perfect. The Ragu of Italian Meats is massive. Plan to bring it home or share with someone. The Ziti with Roasted Chicken is a perfect blend of vegetables, protein and pesto cream. The only disappointment is that we didn't start coming here a long time ago.

Nothing Italian about Via Italian Table. The sauce right out of a can. Chicken Parmesan is just like any corner pizza place! Wife order Lobster Fra Diavolo, it came to the table with no Lobster! The service was slow to the point that not one person in the party had a drink. Everyone said that the food was as sub par! It is sad because the ambience is nice. Never again will I waste my money going there.

Best Italian food and best service we've had in years. Started with jumbo shrimp and a tomato/mozzarella/prosciutto/lobster app with balsamic glaze. Delicious. I had the lobster stuffed shells. Amazing! One of the tastiest dishes ever. Paired with a Pinot Noir, just sooo good. Could not resist the gelato for dessert. The waitresses (two!) were total professionals. All in all, a very special birthday treat. Five stars!
