Vinatería Reviews
We sat outside. Our party was served quickly and efficiently. Food was very good.
Have been going to this place for 15 years. I love the food. I love the owners and I love the manager Tom. He's the best. What else could you ask for? It's just such a pleasant atmosphere and you can actually sit and talk to your friends and actually hear what they have to say. Love that place.
The Farro salad, veal meatballs, black ink spaghetti with seafood and Brussels sprouts - all great dishes. Delicious, well prepared. We sat outside; the space is lovely. Service, even though we were a distance from the main entrance, was attentive and much appreciated. The a/c was not operating properly so we were lucky to have that great table. They should not have tried to seat us indoors! But I understand. The staff, the food, professional, friendly, great service = wonderful...read full review
