VIA VAI

I was my birthday and someone give me a beautiful purse

Absolutely wonderful place with outstanding dishes. Let me clear out couple things. When you come in to dine here it feels like you just travelled to Italy. Every single item on the menu has a unique authentic flavor and you can even taste the passion and care that was put into preparing it. We are so glad we discovered this place and from now on not only us but our friends are big fans of ViaVai. It is a small place with amazing atmosphere. And if people say that food preparation takes too long, I don’t know what is too long when at the end you receive an absolute masterpiece on your plate! There is no hit or miss at ViaVai, every single dish on the menu will make you happy. Try everything and do not forget panna cotta at the end!

Great Dinner. Food was excellent. Restaurant could have used 1 more server but the staff was extremely friendly.

We had a 7pm reservation on a Saturday evening. It wasn't that packed but the atmosphere was decent. The service however was lacking. Once we were seated, our order was taken for over 30 minutes. We were given some bread maybe 40 mins past and our food didn't come for another hour. I think that's absolutely ridiculous. The food was okay. Had the Bolognese and my husband had the carbonara which he said was okay. My husband said the tiramisu was good. I had the gelato which was okay. I think when you wait extra long for food, with a reservation, it should be to die for but it was just Okay. Perhaps better to visit off peak hours

Incredible food. Tiramisu almost brought tears to my eyes.

Beautiful small italian place in Astoria I had the pasta ravioli .. and it was such a satisfying dish. Highly recommended
