We were so pleased with our meal at Vasos. The food was extremely fresh and delicious. The menu was very interesting and creative. We couldn't leave the review without making special mention of how lovely the service was. Each and every person that served us that day was eager to help, kind and friendly. This was the first time we have visited Vasos, but it won't be the last.

It's SUPER overpriced, very very small portions. Veal piccata is 33 and it's not worth it at all, it comes with 2 small portions of veal and a kid-size portion of veggies. Tzatziki side is like one small spoon and you get charged for it. I don't recommend this place.

The service was slow. We had the 4 course fixed price dinner- appetizer, salad, entree and dessert. Appetizers were OK. The server then brought the entrees. I told her we were supposed to get salads. She just looked at me and walked away. We did not get salads. The couple sitting next to us did not get salads either. My dinner was overcooked and tough. I had a Veal special which I could not cut. I had 2 bites and sent it back. The waiter did not ask me if I wanted something else. He did take my dinner off the check. I have eaten at Vaso's many times. This was not up to their standards. Very disappointing.

Quiet, quaint restaurant with amazing food. I ordered the Vaso’s shrimp based off the recommendation of my server and I’m glad I followed her advice. It was beyond amazing and my friend loved her dish too. Nice atmosphere, good service and great food. I would probably recommend making a reservation if you plan on going on a busy night, the place is small, but worth the wait

Had a great dinner the first time but this time not so much. It took 10+ minutes to even order drinks and everything felt very off kilter. There was a mix up with the wine we ordered. Food was ok.

This was a really cozy place! We got the spanakopita and crab stuffed mushrooms as appetizers. The spanakopita was not quite as cheesy as I usually prefer, but still tasty! The mushrooms were very tender and delicious. For mains we got Greek Salad and the Moussaka. The Greek Salad was great, had an excellent dressing and the moussaka was really well spiced and is the ultimate comfort food!The service was great, everyone was very friendly and attentive!

We were here for restaurant week, and it was $50/person. Everything we had was just okay. The best thing I had was probably the house dressing. The veal tortellini didn't seem to have much veal. The other dishes were mozzarella caprese, a house salad, and baklava. Just don't think it was worth the price. Our server was also very quiet and we could barely hear him. But the staff was on top of clearing the table and dishes came out in great timing.

Excellent food. Alexandria is one cozy place we love and this bistro made it better. The food options were great. The food was unquestionably good. Restroom accessibility is a question though.

Pasta was not very flavorful. I ordered a shrimp pasta and the pasta was pretty dry...not drenched in sauce, and the sauce was not very flavorful. Complementary bread was dry and hard and very bland
