    It was my first time at Altair. My wife and I went there for dinner for her birthday. It was breathtaking. The staff was so hospitable, friendly and professional. From the entrance to the dining room, absolutely beautiful service and I love the ambience of the place. I will definitely visit again and tell my friends and family to dine here. Also the food is tasty! Take a bow Altair, great gem of a restaurant 🙌🙏

    "I had the pleasure of celebrating a friend's birthday at Altair, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks were top-notch. Our server, Justine, truly made the evening special with her fantastic vibe and energy. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the night. Highly recommend Altair for anyone looking for great food, drinks, and exceptional service!"

    The restaurant got really busy and the management only had a waitress working. She did her best but it was not her fault.

    I haven’t had this phenomenal experience since I was on a cruise two years ago. The attention to detail was incredible. I absolutely loved the steak. I cannot wait to go again!
