I went here today on Valentine’s Day and it was so worth it. The 85$ pre fixe menu was fantastic. The lobster bisque was rich and the beef cheeks with risotto was delicious and including their famous baby jesus which I’ve never had before. Best bang for your buck. Everyone who worked there was amazing (especially Penelope who’s name I only got but the bartenders/servers were so Kind) and attentive and KNOWLEDGEABLE. So friendly and the vibes are great for date nights. It really made my “holiday” and I will 100% come back.

this is the best italian spot in the world, i grew up in a small italian town in nj and ive had pasta and foods in italy, nothing compares to vesta. The chef in there is doing some sort of magic on the food hes gotta be a wizard. Who ever is cooking the food: I hope you will never have a sad day in your life, I hope you will meet the love of your life, I hope you will have the best sleep every single night, I hope you will have friends who lift you up, I hope you randomly win a million dollars, I hope you receive a bouquet of roses for valentines day, I hope you have a wonderful life. Who ever is cooking the food is seriously an angel because these flavors speak to MY SOUL. I love this place and I will continue supporting it even if I dont live in Astoria anymore. If I could afford it, I would eat here every single day of my life. I hope this spot lives on forever, but doesnt get too crowded. This is the best italian spot in the world, i'm being dead serious and i'm not exaggerating. I'm here enjoying their home made bread and oricchiette ai fungi and i feel like this is what heaven is. Wow. Just wow.

Love it here every time. A staple in the neighborhood. Great wine, lovely atmosphere, outstanding food. Their mussels come in a huge mountain, delicious, in a broth I wish I could drink in a mug. Their pizza is consistently great- thin, crispy crust if you like that (I love it). You truly can’t go wrong. Brunch, lunch, dinner. Always blows me away! Love love love it here!

Love Vesta! It was our first time there and will absolutely return. We had the meatballs, mussels, pumpkin pasta (HIGHLY recommend if it’s still on the menu), one of the thin crust pizzas, and the baby jesus cake. All were great. There is also an amazing wine selection that pairs well with the menu. So often the food and wine menu feels disconnected so it was really wonderful to eat at a spot that put thought into this.

You know Vesta is the perfect neighborhood restaurant. There are fancier places to go for Italian. I guess if you call this basic but it’s not. It’s a very nice environment to people. They are really nice. Chef knows what they’re doing and the food is really good and prices are rust spot on drinks are expensive as usual just about anywhere in our neighborhood and they’re OK. The Wine list is OK overall we consider it one of our go to places.
The wine on tap and recommendations are excellent. The orecchiette continues to be amazing. Always happy to return here

All i have to say is this is not an Italian restaurant. What Italian restaurant you know that sells burgers? Extremely disappointing. I walked out thats how disappointing it was.

I love this restaurant. My son and his wife have been going there for a long time and is there to go restaurant when family and friends are visiting. However today was a total disappointment. We went in for brunch, our food took a very long time. And out of the three meals ordered only one was eaten. My son’s burger did not taste well, his French fries were stale and looked old. He ended up not eating it at all. My daughter in law’s food did not taste well as well and she left it. My potatoes were overly seasoned. A great disappointment.
