Fresh Fish Friday, fall edition. 🍂
One of the newest additions to the menu:
BROWN BUTTER SEARED MAINE SCALLOPS
Broccoli rabe • black lentils • parsley brodo • lemon • chili oil
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. 🌿

A little Italy. A lot of Maine.

Five honors. One Via Vecchia.
Best Italian Restaurant.
Best Ambiance.
Best Wine List.
Best Building.
Best Bathroom.
We’ve always believed a restaurant is more than what arrives at the table. It’s the food and wine, 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.
