They now serve brunch on the weekends! And it is amazing. As a breakfast lover, Il Vecchio did not disappoint. Getting any of their benedicts will leave someone satisfied with great portions, and reasonable prices.

Every time I come here the food is amazing, but I recently ordered takeout and it was just as delicious as eating in the restaurant. You can tell they put heart and care into the food, whether dine-in or pickup. Highly recommend the rigatoni bolognese and marscapone chocolate cake.

I got the chance to try this place out today and let me just start with a very impressed with the food and portions. I am not a Italian food connoisseur so I can't tell you whether or not this is authentic. What I will say is that the food was delicious and the flavors that I experienced were not flavors I have very often. I was very impressed with the quality of food. Unfortunately though the service was quite lacking, I showed up with an old friend today, during the midday and it was not very busy. The employee that helped us while very friendly was also very very late when giving us Refreshments like coffee or giving us our food that we ordered. I'm not upset or anything about it I think that they were just having an off day. But in terms of service it was lacking today. Although I will mention that even though the server was lacking his demeanor was very inviting. I do invite anyone to come check out this place as I imagine the service is top-notch I just feel like I picked up the wrong day to come through.

This was my 2nd time at Il Vecchio, and I still absolutely love this place. The food was amazing; from the appetizers to the entrées, and then the desserts...AMAZING! Let's not forget the fantastic service we got from Matt. He was so kind and attentive, despite how busy it was throughout the entire restaurant. Every time we're down here, I always get excited when my aunt and uncle suggest we eat here, so this is for sure a favorite of mine.

The best meal we had in 2 weeks in California. The food was delicious - tasted like authentic home cooked Italian. High quality ingredients and made with love. Service was excellent, and the ambience inside was very warm, cosy and just spot on.
We ate the tempura artichokes for starter which were delicious and unusual, with three tasty dips. For main we tried some pastas (both excellent) and a delicious sprouts side. Very generous portions.

Best Italian food I have ever eaten! And I've been to Italy! The hibiscus lavender Spritz cocktail was tasty, the burrata and berry salad was amazing, the "flatbread" appetizer was as big as an entree. It was super fresh focaccia with brie, prosciutto, apple talked with arugula and balsamic glaze. the pasta orrechietta was so flavorful and fresher than any pasta I have ever had. It was cooked perfectly. Of course, the meal would not be complete without trying one of their many desserts. I wanted to get one of each but I had to draw the line. I usually get the Buckingham gelato desert, but they had the most amazing chocolate cake, lemon tart and chocolate torte. I will never go to another Italian restaurant besides this one.

Everything we ordered was delicious! We had the crab aranchini, lamb parppadelle pasta, rigatoni pasta, & dark chocolate cake with mascarpone. It was all absolutely delicious! The only bad thing was the service. It took our waiter well over 30 mins to get our drink order in & by that time we ordered everything since we were super hungry!
