Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Chestnut Hill

The food was delicious and Corey was an amazing server!

Our server was outstanding, and the food was great. Quiet enough for conversation. Recommend it highly!

I’ve been fortunate enough to be dining here for nearly twenty years and I’ve never had a meal fall short of amazing. Although on this particular visit there was a stand out staff member that really took my dining experience up a notch. Our server, Glenn, was an absolute goldmine of knowledge. He undoubtedly exceeded expectations for a server in fine dining. I can only hope he’s available when I visit again for Valentine’s Day!

Absolutely amazing dining experience!!! The grilled octopus is by far the best appetizer, our favorite and only restaurant that has it down to a science! The flavor is outstanding, temperature is always just right! I am a loyal customer and always order the house entree “PESCATORE”…you can never go wrong with a dish named after a restaurant….this dish NEVER disappoints. The crab gravy is beyond delicious, shrimp, clams and mussels are always done just right. We also ordered the salmon special which was over a lobster broccoli risotto, from the very first taste it kept getting even more flavorful….This is a must try. Double espressos (with our BYO Sambuca) and their homemade tiramisu was a perfect ending to an amazing dining experience. Aside from the food, the staff went over & beyond….with the change of ownership/management, you definitely feel a positive change in the climate….Asad is so very personable, welcomes us when he sees us and makes us feel right at home. The female server (Armenian, just forgot her name) has a great personality, goes over and beyond and truly cares about the customers. Evan…what an incredible young man….Truly loves the food industry, kind, personable and very engaging! Thank you so very much, Asad & staff, and the amazing chefs/cooks in the kitchen, we never get to meet you, but truly appreciate your talent and thank you for such an amazing dining experience. And to the new ownership, we love the changes to the decor, lighting and overall ambience….Many thanks and all the best and great success. Thank you!

Have been to Via 417 a half dozen times and have ordered take out another handful of times. Never disappoints. I usually get the same thing, the Branzino, but decided to order one of the specials this time around. Had the flounder franchise and was just amazing. Food came out hot and quick, cannot wait to go back again.
