If I could give ALTA Restaurant & Wine Bar more than five stars, I would. The pork cheeks may have…read morebeen the best meal I've ever had--perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and packed with flavor. Every bite was unforgettable. What made the experience even more special was the hospitality. After the Tanglewood concert on a Sunday night, the staff recognized that many concertgoers were looking for a place to eat and graciously stayed open later to accommodate everyone. That level of customer service is rare and speaks volumes about how much they care about their guests. Outstanding food, exceptional hospitality, and an experience I'll be talking about for a long time. I can't wait to come back.

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~

Our waitress came by to take a drink order and brought us a bottle of water for the table. The menu is limited, but has plenty of variety and everything has a level of 'comfort' instead of 'stuffy'. The presentation of our meals is well done. I ordered a salad and the produce was fresh with crisp lettuce, well prepared grilled tuna and boiled egg. The dressing was light and tasty. Would order this again. Two peanut butter cookies arrived with our check. I am kind of surprised they would choose to serve peanut butter with so many people having nut allergies, including myself. I had to ask what type of cookies they were before I took one. That just seems like a dangerous policy. Otherwise, we enjoy our time here. Everything is top tier from flatware to restroom to service to food quality. Definitely worth a look.

We were nervous about not having a reservation anywhere during peak season however this place has a good amount of seating so we were seated right away at 5 PM. Our server was attentive, a little awkward but that did not negatively affect the experience at all, it was more so endearing and amusing. Drinks were good. Food was fine, some good bites (shrimp tempura, desserts) and some not so impressive bites (lobster tacos). Vibes were great, we like chill places that still have energy and a lively atmosphere, not too loud, the space filled up throughout our time there so it felt like a happening place. Would definitely be back when we are in the area again!

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.
