Via Vite Italian Bistro on Fountain Square in Downtown Cincinnati offers the most authentic Italian food. We opened our doors on October 11, 2007 and were founded by one of the most prominent and successful restaurateurs in Cincinnati. Chef Cristian and Amanda Pietoso became the sole owner/operators of the restaurant in 2012. Chef Cristian and his culinary team source the finest imported and local ingredients and hand make each dish in our scratch kitchen. We are located on Fountain Square in the heart of the Central Business District of Downtown Cincinnati.
