I see I last reviewed this spot when it was takeout only. I have now been here at least four times since they opened for dine in so I feel qualified to review it again. It's a beautiful place to eat, and although the focus is on being a pizzeria, there are plenty of non-pizza items if there are folks in your party who want to branch out, such as salads, sandwiches and pastas that you might be familiar with from their other locations. I've never had a sandwich here but their pastas are amazing and I can't recommend them highly enough, particularly the mafaldini with vodka sauce. I'm also a huge fan of the appetizers, particularly the olives and Arancini.I am usually at this location however for pizza. If you come here during your birthday month with a big burrito restaurants birthday email (sign up for their list!) you will get a full pizza or entrée for free, which I did in October. On my last couple of visits I sat at the bar for pizza slices. On this visit I was redeeming my Pittsburgh Pizza Passport. They had three slices available today: square, one with pepperoni and one classic plain. As a vegetarian the classic plain was my only option, but I'm very happy with that here. I also ordered a simple blood orange San Pellegrino. Bar service is quick and attentive, the person next to me was ordering multiple alcoholic drinks but I never felt pressured to order more than my slice and soda. The classic slice here is perfectly done. Not Neapolitan thin but not too thick, perfect amount of cheese, a little bit of basil. It's just right and one of my favorite slices in the city.

We stopped by for their happy hour on MLK Day and were able to get a table for four right away. Their happy hour has both food and drinks which I love.We then ordered our pizzas and sandwiches. Everything was really good and the portions were generous. It took a while to flag down our server towards the end of our meal to get takeout containers and get our checks.!

1/29/25Ate List:Round Pizzas:Original - 8.2Pepperoni and Taleggio - 8.6Really solid spot. Had been meaning to try this pizza for a while. Flavor of the original is good. VERY thin. VERY light. It is delicious but also very plain (if that's what you're after, you should be happy).The Pepperoni and Taleggio really caught me off guard and I really enjoyed it. Slight kick. Perfect small pepperonis. Both pizzas had a good tasting crust. Really great all around.The atmosphere and quality is a little higher which shows in the price tag. We got these two pizzas for about $45. A little steep but that's the only knock I have for it. If my total was closer to $30, this would become a near weekly spot for us.

My 1st time grabbing lunch at AVP. Service was great for a Monday and being a holiday. We ordered the chicken parm sandwich and the meatball hoagie. Immediately as the food was delivered to our table, I could tell there was not enough red sauce for either dish. The server did bring me some extra which was both much needed and appreciated. I tried both the sandwich and hoagie and preferred the Chicken Parm here which surprised me because I love meatball hoagies. The parking was free in a garage close by. Overall, I would dine for lunch at AVP again.

My husband and I wanted to find something upgraded but also very easy and AVP was exactly what we wanted! Walking in, the restaurant has a cool vibe and the staff were very welcoming! Once seated, the menu had so many options it was hard to choose what to get. The waitress gave us some good direction. We were also happy that they had happy hour deals on a Saturday! We ultimately decided on two pizzas - their special of the day and one of their classics. The special pizza (Calabrian chili and sausage) had a nice kick and it was full of flavor, and their classic pizza (Fig and Brie) was sweet and was a nice complement to the spicy of the other one. We also got the Semolina Crusted Zucchini, which had a delicious salty crust to the sweet zucchini. We cannot wait to go back again and try something different next time!

Great pizza and fun date night! However zucchini fries were the hardest fries I've ever had. Hard to eat and bite into. Ended up not being able to eat them all due to dislike. Pizza was amazing!

I've been here a couple times and it's really just so good. Most recently, a friend and I shared the burrata and a buffalo chicken pizza. We loved both!Not only is the food amazing, but the space is so cute. I love that the huge windows allow a lot of natural light and there is greenery throughout the restaurant. Service is also always quick and friendly with recommendations as needed.

Alta via pizzeria really snuck up on me. I went a few time when they first opened and enjoyed it. It has slowly become my families go to pizza place. I do have to say take out is the way to go. The few times I've dined in the service has been slow and there's a very grumpy woman working the bar. I was also surprised that even though they have a full bar they only have can soda. My family loves getting take out and eating on the lawn to let the kiddos run around.I would definitely recommend getting pizza here. Beats anything you'd get at city kitchen.

Went back here recently with a group, including several kids, and got take out. We sat outside in Bakery Square while the kiddos played on the large turf field adjacent to the restaurant. It was a very nice outdoor atmosphere and let the kids run wild while the adults could talk and/or eat.We got one pizza and a couple sides, which was plenty for our family of three. The Romeo pizza was pretty interesting, with some sausage, large blobs of ricotta, and a mildly spicy hot sauce. A tad wet for a pizza but lots of good flavor and very filling. Beans & greens was a nice side; a hair smaller than I would have expected but tasty. Also, like the pizza, a bit too saucy. Similar on the side of brussels sprouts; yummy but too much sauce. The meal left me satisfied but also thirsty from the salty/saucy dishes.

This place is in Bakery Square, which is such a great area. There's an outdoor/atrium area with a to go window to order at. Or you can sit inside the restaurant. It was a warm night so we sat inside. We started with the artichoke that was roasted and had so much flavor. We also split the chopped salad. We were so hungry, I forgot to take pictures of these. We then shared two square pizzas. They are known for the square pizza, but also have a traditional round. We had the Rosa that is a plain cheese pizza with vodka sauce. We also had the mushroom and onion. The group consensus was that the mushroom and onion was the favorite. The dough is delicious with a crispy-ness on the outside that really makes it. Our server was awesome....super attentive, answered our questions and was very personable.
