I moved about a block away from Alma a few years ago, yet it still took me an amazingly long time to give this place a shot. It is, admittedly, a very unassuming restaurant in a very unexpected...

If you go in the winter, wear a coat. We had a fine meal here but I was so cold I can't honestly remember what I had. Those big picture windows seem enticing but...brrrrr.

What a great place. Their bread is top of my list for the best bread I've ever had - raisins, slightly sweet, crusty on the outside and soft inside. For this reason alone I would keep coming back to...

Not sure if it is a five star, but maybe a 4.5. I really like the pick 3 menu or whatever they call it. 3 very nice dishes and well done. Kind of the antithesis of the places where it is quantity...

In a very unassuming building on University Avenue (next to the Dunn Bros), this restaurant manages to stay busy all the time. It's one of those restaurants where you WILL get good food, but just in...

I tried Alma last Saturaday evening. I was expecting great things but was left with a very bad taste. The waitress or server was perhaps overworked or did want to be at work. Her lack of a intial greeting down...

Second visit to this restaurant was disappointing. Spent close to $100 w/o dessert or drinks and had a very mediocre entree. At this price point I expect consistent quality.

Great place to relax and enjoy a conversation over a pretty looking meal. But I find the gourmet food too heavy. Even though it's homemade, I wish they offered more healthy versions on the menu for fussy food...

Alma has done nothing but gotten better since they opened. Food has always been outstanding, but the service has improved considerably since their much-decried "snooty service" days. Always a great experience....
