What do you do when you’re an Italian restaurant in Maine and Maine blueberries are in season? 🫐
You make Blueberry Tiramisu.
Ladyfingers soaked in lemon syrup, mascarpone cream, blueberry jam and fresh Maine blueberries.
A little Italy. A lot of Maine.
Always save room for dessert.

Five honors. One Via Vecchia.
Best Italian Restaurant.
Best Ambiance.
Best W**e List.
Best Building.
Best Bathroom.
We’ve always believed a restaurant is more than what arrives at the table. It’s the food and w**e, certainly, but also the room, the hospitality, the building, and apparently even the bathroom.
To everyone who voted for Via Vecchia, thank you. And to our extraordinary staff, these honors belong to you. Your talent, care, and attention to detail are what bring this place to life every night.
We’re deeply proud to be part of Portland and grateful for five wonderful reasons to celebrate.

For 101 years, Portland has gathered around this table. This year, we’re grateful to have a seat.
This Friday and Saturday, Via Vecchia joins the St. Peter’s Italian Bazaar for the first time, celebrating 101 years of Italian-American tradition in Portland.
We’ll be serving two Via Vecchia pasta dishes for $10 each, with every dollar going directly to St. Peter’s Church.
Come find us in Little Italy. 🇮🇹
Friday & Saturday • 5–10 PM

We’re grateful to be included in Condé Nast Traveler’s list of the 20 Best Bars in Portland, Maine.

They highlighted what we’ve always believed: classic cocktails are meant to evolve.

From the Mirepoix Martini to the Sicilian Negroni, our bar is built on tradition, interpreted through a Via Vecchia lens.

Thank you to our team for their creativity, and to every guest who has joined us for a drink.
