The crust was OK, but the vegetables on the veggie special were all canned. Canned mushrooms peppers that were marinated in vinegar. Absolutely nothing fresh on the pizza. Big disappointment.

As old school and authentic NYC Red table cloth as it comes but without tourist or social media buzz. Food is as tasty and wholesome American-Italian food as I have had anywhere similar served in appropriate not overly fussy way. Will visit again soon.

Happily retired now, having loved V&T since my Barnard College days. We went there, ordered Cokes and a large pizza. Now it’s more often delivery of a medium pie with a Caesar salad. Best pizza place in NYC. Also: best chicken marsala!

I bought 3 large pizza pies today for the kids and staff of a local school. Everyone loved the pizza, the next time I will get 4 or 5 pies. Also had a great conversation with Alex. Great people make great pizza.

Celebrating and enjoying quality time with my mother. We had lunch here after a home-going celebration for one of our dear loved ones. So a hearty Italian meal was best for the job. V & T did not disappoint! Flavor was robust and the cheeses blended together like the beautiful dynamic harmony of your favorite love song. Can’t wait to go back!

Best eggplant rollatini and eggplant pizza anywhere!
Have been coming here for years, as great as ever. Our favorite Italian place in the heart of Upper West Side. Amazing food and desserts. This is the kind of place that gets busier with locals as the night goes on.
I've been coming to V&T Restaurant for fifty years, since I was twelve years old. Some of the best Italian Food and Pizza around. The portions are always generous, the food excellent and the Pepperoni Pizza is just the BEST!! For me, Alex the Owner and many of the staff are like family. Very welcoming, everyone knows my name, and the owner makes it a point to walk around and engage with his customers. V&T is very popular with the Columbia University crowd as it sits in the vicinity of its campus and across from the Cathedral of St. John the Divine and Mt. Sinai Hospital. Friday and Saturday nights tend to be particularly busy, but you won't wait long at all. In fact, I've never had to wait for a table in 50 years. V&T gives rustic old world charm atmosphere and is perfect in every sense. Check them out and you too will become a devoted fan!!

Big and not quite dead roaches in ladies' room... which were still there 90 mins after we told waiter (who giggled!) We were still there 90 mins later due to excruciatingly slow and inattentive service. Vodka sauce tasted great, but waiter brought wrong dishes out TWICE! Underneath the bar is dripping pipe with puddle (zoom in photo).
