Fun atmosphere… if you get in. Went at 9pm this past weekend and the bouncer said they wouldn’t be letting anyone else in until 10:30pm, and “good luck” even when the doors opened back up. The entire line left, we headed to The Dive Shop right across the street and had a blast. Exclusivity has definitely changed this venue, sadly.

Went here on a date on Friday night around 9 p.m. and it wasn't too busy yet. We were able to sit ourselves at a booth and order pizza and drinks. The Margherita pizza was good for $18 and drink selection was good (beers are about $10 and cocktails $17). Also ordered a tiramisu ($9) which was good. One thing, that I want to point out we asked for garlic dip for the pizza and found out at the end they charged $3 for a small amount (just a warning, as I don't think it was worth it for $3). The place gets busier and packed at night as it turns into a club, dance floor vibe which is cool. At the end of the night you can grab slices of pizza for $5 beside coat-check which is really nice. Overall would come back for night out and to try their other pizzas.

Great place. Had a good time this Valentine's Day with my man, we went to my good friend Anthony's karaoke he hosts their every Wednesday night. My man won 100 dollars that night and bought everyone a round of our fave shots (silcilian kisses, half amaretto, half soco). Karaoke was killer, my girl lady Vee was in attendance with her beautiful voice and a real stunner was there that night, I believe her name was Stacey... she had incredible pipes. I sang a song by Duffy to my man I've never sang in my life (at karaoke) and everyone seemed to like it but then I did my usual zombie by the cranberries and that was the real crowd pleaser. The bartender was a really professional but also very personable girl who treated us with sincerity and respect, my bf did a jt song he's never done and threw a little comedy in there as well (he's a comedian by nature and former career) and overall it was the best Valentine's I've had in at least 4 years if not more. P.S. we didn't have food so I can't judge that aspect but if it's anything like the service and atmosphere it is delicious ? Thanks for a great night out Vatican! And special shout out to DJDC Anthony love ya man ? ❤️

If you’d like to freeze in the fake long lines, go ahead. If you’d prefer to grease the big tall bouncer on the right , “For you and your friends, It’s $20 pp- but be discreet about it”…. also your choice?‍♀️. We opted out.

Service by iur waitress was great,she was amazing and did a wonderful job. BUT the other waitress (blonde long hair) was not a happy person at all she was very rude and dismissive. You need to have people skills for both men and women but she was fun and flirty with all the men and then the women she was pushy, ignorant, very disrespectful. Honeslty not sure we will be back because wouldnt want to have this kind if treatment again. We spent a fair but if money this evening too being there for 5 hours eating and drinking. I loved the ambiance, music was great and other staff professional and food was very tasty.

Went to the Vatican Gift Shop for the first time this weekend for my friend's birthday. Atmosphere was great, the music was old school and fun to dance to. The pizza was so good! It was such a fun place for us 40-somethings to let loose...until it wasn't.Unfortunately, our server was terrible. He was very rude and escalated a miscommunication (we had legitimate questions about the bill ) to the point where security was called. Security was also unprofessional, dismissive, argumentative, and would not listen to reason. If I could give 0 stars I would.Adam, the owner came out to speak with us. He assured our group that the employees have already been spoken to, he looked genuinely concerned that our night was ruined and offered my friend another night out on him! This type of business professionalism is appreciated but I doubt I will ever return back.

We came here for NYE. The music was awesome and the pizza super tasty. My only complaint is the coat check employee was overall aggressive with asking for tips. It was quite awkward. Coat check was included in the price but she told us to tip with a debit/credit machine and placed it right in front of us.
