Big expectations here. My mother told us it was the best meal of her life. And she knows food. Altius didn't disappoint. I don't know if I would agree that it was the best meal of my life but it was certainly up there. Me and my husband went there Friday night for our 1st anniversary and it was amazing. Got the charcuterie plate as an appetizer. It was SOOOO good. Then we had crab bisque. Best crab bisque I ever had. I'll give the bisque the best in my life award. I got duck breast as an entree and hubby had a filet and both were perfect. For dessert we had a s'mores thing and the chef wrote on the plate "Happy Anniversary" in chocolate sauce. Everything from start to finish was great. Oh and I forgot to mention at the very beginning our waitress brought us out a bowl of popcorn which was so different and so good! It really was a great night. The view rocks - I mean it's on Mt. Washington. So, yeah cool view. It's awesome. Certainly pricey, but worth it for a special occasion.
