Everything we had was DELICIOUS. We tried the burrata, the bistecca, pappardelle con bolognese, and one of the dishes of the day. We paired it with a red wine recommended by Tom, sommelier, and it enhanced all the flavors. The tiramisu was the perfect way to end our dinner, with a nice cup of espresso. My family and I enjoyed our time there, and the service and attention were great!

The food was amazing as always. Wiley is a knowledgeable sever who took very good care of us. The only downside was that we were freezing the entire time.

This has been my favorite restaurant for 27 years and it never disappoints. The Cacio e pepe, butternut squash agnolotti, lasagna and all the dishes are fantastic. I love to watch the kitchen and the staff is outstanding. Wine list is heavy Italian which makes me very happy. Perfect as always.

3 of us food snobs from Chicago come to Austin 2-3x/year. People don't believe us when we tell them Austin has the best Italian we've ever had. And we've been in many states. This was our 2nd visit to Vespaio and it confirmed it is our favorite. It even beats out Red Ash. And the staff is impeccable. Across the board. We will be back.

Fantastic meal! My friends and I ordered the mussels, lasagna, spaghetti with steak, and butternut squash pasta. All were delicious.

Mark

Sophisticated Italian cuisine. Several daily special dishes that are usually very tempting combined with attentive but unobtrusive service makes for a lovely experience. Excellent bar and wine selections.

Vespaio was fantastic. Everything we ate was fresh and flavorful from the Burrata appetizer to the pasta and scallops. The ciabatta bread was great too. Our waitress was friendly and the staff attentive.

We had a fantastic night here celebrating our anniversary. The staff were proactive, attentive and kind. The food is delicious and we will definitely return!

Rob

The chef is especially talented ! Salmon with herbal roux is like no other. Crispy scallops that are like butter on the inside were the best. Staff was very supportive. I love the fact that entrees come in 2 sizes. It was fun to watch the pizza cook spin the pizza dough definitely will be back

Our food was great and the server was so attentive but it was extremely freezing in there to the point we almost got up and left. I couldn't enjoy the food because I was truly shivering and I had a jacket on.

We walked in with no reservation hoping to get a table on a busy Thursday and had the most amazing service, from start to finish. Kassidy really stood out with her friendliness and care as she was able to get us a spot at the bar. We try to make a trip to south congress every time we are in town and without fail always come back to Vespaio. Ambiance and hospitality.

We enjoyed a wonderful evening at Vespaio. From the food, to the service of EACH MEMBER from start to finish, but especially our server Nick, everything was high level and respectful. I really appreciate Nick's service and would like to emphasize this. Huge thank you! You were very respectful and considerate to me and whom I was with. All around, it was a flawless, perfect experience. Thank you, Nick, and thank you Vespaio! We will be back.
