Ottava Via - (Near Detroit, MI)

5 /5 noor adam: We got the bread service to start. The bread was nothing special, but the butter was really good. The pesto pasta and alfredo were both delicious, and the cocktail (can’t remember the name) was great too. I’d definitely recommend this place for a nice but affordable dinner, especially for the atmosphere.

5 /5 Mike K: I thought I was in Detroit, but somehow ended up back in Italy. We had the goat cheese and bread dish and arancini for apps. As well as Cacio e Pepe and bolognese for the main dish - just wow. The food is truly amazing. I would imagine you could not go wrong with any item on the menu. Absolutely worth the hour drive - will for sure be back

5 /5 Carolyn: We had a great dinner last night - there was a good amount of people there on a weeknight; regulars hanging out at the bar, groups having dinner, it has a really homey feel. Christmas music was playing for the season and its decorated so festively! I want to come back before Christmas just to enjoy the pretty lights and cheerful atmosphere. Service was excellent and our food was delicious and perfectly cooked. We had the garlic shrimp appetizer which comes with a roasted half of lemon and 4 large slices of buttered toasty bread so sop up all the lemon butter sauce - I will order that every time. Its awesome and the shrimp were very flavorful and perfectly cooked. We also ordered the Caesar salad which was easy to split between 2 people, and I LOVE the fried soft egg and salty high quality sardine fillets. It was perfectly dressed and just a great Caesar salad. If you added protein, it would make a nice meal. We then each had pastas - hubby had the Arribiata penne with sausage and chicken - it has the best roasted broccolini in it, and was delicious. I had the ragout alla bolognese and everything about it was savory and perfect, topped with ricotta. We both even had enough to take home. I highly recommend this neighborhood joint thats cranking out top notch Italian food. We will be back soon.

5 /5 Geoff Wickersham: Our first time here, we will definitely come back. We had the roasted garlic and goat cheese small plate as an appetizer. My wife had the Bolognese and the handmade noodles just melt in your mouth. I had the bisteca and patate which was done properly, tasty chimichurri, but the steak was a little tough. Our server, Lauren, was the best. Enthusiastic about the menu, attentive, and very friendly.

4 /5 Ro Indy Realtor: The service was great (s/o to Steffanie). The food was okay. My mocktail was a little bitter but after a shot of simple syrup I was able to drink it. The pasta was a decent portion. I couldnt even eat half. I really enjoyed sitting outside as it was a little chilly in the restaurant. I saw my first black squirrel while eating lunch. He even got super close to my foot. I almost left my hot plate .
