Who’s ready for this? 🍂
It may be October, but we’re still in the 70s tonight.
Take advantage of these bonus days and join us outside beneath the ivy. Because al fresco dining in October in Maine is something special.
Doors open at 4pm.
We’ll save you a seat outside while Mother Nature is still cooperating.

Sweet Maine scallops, a deep brown-butter sear, earthy lentils and that bright green parsley brodo. A dish that feels like the exact moment summer turns into fall.

Labor Day weekend in Maine is always a little bittersweet.
Summer isn’t quite over, but you can feel it starting to slip away.
So we’re hanging onto the ivy, the long evenings, dinner outside and every last bit of summer we can get.
There’s still time.
Come see us at No. 10 Dana Street. 🌿

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.

Summer’s not done yet.

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.
