I have been going to Buona Via since it opened and Restaurante Mediterranean before that. This is the last time we will be returning. The “Manager” is a smug,condescending know it all whoIt seemed like is father owns the restaurant and gave his son the Manager position. First, when we arrived, I asked where Sal was and he lied saying he was here the other day and was off that night. Then when I complained about the food quality, he lied to me saying that Sal was never in the kitchen. The Veal Marsala was not pounded enough and was as tough as leather. The shrimp in the Scallop and Shrimp dish still had the shells on them, in addition to the tails. Branzino has been my go- to dish there as it was so dry, I had to order a side sauce. After the confrontation with the “Manager” a couple of the long time staff came up to us and said it wasn’t the same since the new ownership. Sal, enjoy your retirement. But you are sorely missed. Stay away from Buona Via.

Although pricey the food was very good. Service was overly attentive in taking plates away way before finishing. Service seemed to want to clear the table and go home. Most annoying was the "convenience fee" for using a credit card. I mean come on. We spent over $250 for dinner, and the restaurant nickel dimes you for a service fee.

I find it frustrating when a Server barely pays any attention to you. Our Bus Boy was fantastic and did all the work. He was attentive and kept us happy. Our Server made us wait for everything ESPECIALLY the check which is the most frustrating of all. This is our second time here and unfortunately, had the same Waiter. He needs more training. The food is excellent and the patio is great. We'll be back because of this. You can be sure that we will request a different server.
