One of the great secrets in Italian food , I've been a fan of this restaurant for many years , the quality never fails , it's a rainbow of flavors that shower your pallet, I am not trying to sound like a critic, lol, just came out that way , considering how prices have gone up, they have the lowest prices when you you consider what you are getting, I hope you try them , you'll keep coming back

Historical settings, small portion of food.
This famous, historical building is located in a residential area in Sam Dimas. The building was original and beautiful with a museum on the second floor. The restaurant dining rooms are on the first floor, with beautiful old ceilings and some big windows facing the street. However, the bread served were two small pieces in a dish for two people. I ordered a main dish called Maremonte: the shrimps were medium sized, reminded me those shrimps I got from Costco. They tasted like those farm raised shrimps from Thailand in Costco. I was disappointed. There were two pieces of scallops and the home-made pasta with squid sauce. It was a small to medium portion of food in the big plate and it costed about 30 dollars. Since there was no any vegetables in the dish, so it tasted fishy and salty.
After dinner, we could go upstairs and visited the museum. The displays were original and historical. It was a unique experience after all.

We met some friends that we have not seen in a long time and I had 2 choices of restaurants , and I chose Vicenzo’s to meet for dinner… Wow, what a good choice… It is located in a historical house in San Dimas, and such a great atmosphere to have a nice dinner with friends…. They bring out fresh made focaccia bread with butter. I had the boneless ribeye with roasted potatoes and broccoli. Steak was cooked to perfection and oh so tender, my wife had the pasta special with shrimp and it was fantastic. For dessert I had the tiramisu and was out of this world…. It is the best I ever had and I have had a lot……my wife had the black cherry gelato and it was also fantastic. Our server Anthony is the son and owner with his mom. He told us the tiramisu is made fresh daily. Highly recommend to check out this restaurant and you won’t be disappointed.

We had high hopes for our dinner at Vincenzo's Terrazza, especially given the charm and history of The Walker House. But unfortunately, our experience was underwhelming across the board.
We started with the Calamari Fritti, which was light and nicely fried, but came with very little sauce, leaving it feeling incomplete. For entrées, we shared the Pollo Aurora and Tagliolini Maremonte. While both looked appealing when they arrived, the flavors were bland and forgettable. To make things more awkward, the pollo arrived nearly 10 minutes after the rest of the table had been served. Our server apologized, but it definitely disrupted the flow of the meal.
The portion sizes were small considering the price point, and the beer selection was limited to just Stella and Peroni. Service was polite but disappointing. The low point came when we were charged a $14 “cake service” fee (for plates only - they didn’t cut or decorate the cake) after bringing our own dessert. This fee was never disclosed when we handed over the cake or when we asked for plates. When I raised it with the manager, he doubled down and insisted the charge was standard policy, a frustrating and inflexible stance over something so minor.
At the end of the night, I left more irritated than satisfied. Between the bland food, slow service, and unexpected charges, there wasn’t much to redeem the experience. Even the historic building lost its luster after that exchange. There are simply better places in the area that serve more flavorful food and treat guests with more care.
I wouldn’t recommend dining here.

The owner was amazing and accommodated our party of 6 because we were late. Food, wine, service was spectacular! Thank you for taking great care of us. The property was so so cool. Margie upstairs at the museum was so friendly and knowledgeable. What a great place!!! I need to find the wine we had!!!

Best restaurant in all of San dimas. This was our 3rd time here and every meal, every item is outstanding. However, the best part is the tour you can take of the house to learn all about the amazing history of the house itself and about San dimas. We also had the best tour guide, though I can’t recall her name. We will be back!

Full monte . Great place for a first date. Reasonable prices. Romantic, unique, historic. Desert, apps, bottle, beer, double salmon.
What a wonderful jewel! We were visiting family and just stumbled on Vincenzo’s while walking through San Dimas.
Anthony was the best waiter I’ve ever seen. The food was amazing, room and setting perfect for us.
I highly recommend this restaurant!
