I went out for St. Patrick’s Day with friends and had to use the restroom. After waiting over 40 minutes in line I finally got to go in but was pushed from behind by a female I did not know. I told her it was my turn and also that it was the men’s restroom and she had to leave but she refused and told me she didn’t want to wait in the women’s line which was also long. Then 3 staff opened the door and kicked us both out of the bar. After telling them my story all they said was “well you got screwed but still have to leave.” I thought they were very unprofessional about the situation and did not handle it properly. I will not be back.

Visited Valentino's for the first time this weekend for their Pickle Picnic. The bartenders were great and liked the interior, although dark had a nice layout. The Pickle Cocktails and food were delicious!

I had a great time at Valentino’s during my night out in Worcester. Bruno, who served us, was kind and attentive, even as the bar got busier. He made sure we were well taken care of, which we really appreciated. It was clear he was working hard to keep everything running smoothly.
One of the highlights for me was ordering a drink that came with a cute rubber ducky floating in it. It was such a fun touch, and it brought a smile to both my friend and boyfriend’s faces. Little details like that really added to the enjoyment of the night.
Joe, another bartender, also stood out. When I had to step away briefly, he kindly kept my drink behind the bar until I returned. Even though he was busy, he made sure everyone at the bar was having a good time, which made a big difference.
The DJ, Brecko, played an amazing mix of music that had everyone dancing and singing along. The vibe was lively, and the music made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening, whether you were dancing or just chatting with friends.
Valentino’s is a great spot in Worcester for a fun night out. The service, music, and atmosphere all came together to create an experience I’ll definitely remember. I’m looking forward to coming back soon!

Brian was an excellent bartender, very attentive and personable. Will definitely be returning
Well... what can I say? Maybe I've outgrown a bar scene, maybe my standards are too high, I don't know anymore....So my former boss and I met up on Shrewsbury Street to catch up after 10 years or so... It's Saturday afternoon, 4 PM, and The Pint was closed until 6, so we strolled down the street and found what was open and quiet (quiet until a bunch of youngsters showed up).Stepped in pitch black with 1 TV flickering behind a bar ?Sat there and ordered drinks.The menu shows pictures of classic Margherita glasses, but they serve it in a plane tall, ribbed glass, so if you are looking for any kind of sofistication, forget it. And forget the salt, slush, or on the rocks offer...My boss wanted Patron and splash of Cointreau... they said they didn't have Cointreau, but they would put in a triple sec instead (which is supposed to be in Margherita to begin with ?)We also ordered chicken potstickers as an appetiser, which looked like they were tortured before being served. The ones from Traders Joe's will beat that kitchen any day.So, to make a long story short, 4 drinks and 8 potstickers ran us $80 with a tip, a good tip.It's not a cheap date if you ask me.Next time, I'll be drinking at home ?!

Re: FOOD: I've never tried the food here so I can't speak on that at all.This is one of those hit or miss spots when it comes to the vibe of that particular evening. It's definitely a who you know and how the staff feels about you kind of place. The other patrons can also be hit or miss, a lot of disgruntled cranky people I've interacted with.My favorite thing about this place? The pickle martini. The ambiance is cute, and if you go when it's not busy or super crowded it's a chill vibe with a wide array of music being played.

Had no issues with the place in general, it was close by to where I already was and had a good variety of drinks. The bartenders were good as well, and were able to make drinks no problem. It is catering for a certain crowd though. They set up a big speaker and were playing loud music, but I gather it is a college bar so it was fine. If you're trying to go out for drinks with friends maybe find a restaurant instead. If you want to go out and have a night out, it did not look bad. Again, just not the scene I was looking for at the time.
