Reviews
We were seated right away at a table by the window. Vinny’s is not a fancy place but that’s not what is about; you go for the food and their entrees did not disappoint.
We each started with a side salad which consisted of iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion and cucumber. The balsamic dressing was very good.
Bread comes right from the oven to the table. Our friends enjoyed it but I was a bit disappointed with the cake like texture. The crust was thin and light where I prefer a heavier crust.
The evening special was Shrimp Scampi which my friend ordered. It looked fabulous, the lemony sauce had tender looking butterflied shrimp and sun dried tomatoes. Her husband had Spaghetti and Meatballs; it was a good size portion, smothered in house made sauce with enough left to take some home. My Tortelloni Campagnola was a delicious concoction of cheese stuffed pasta in a creamy red pepper cream sauce with bite size sausage, mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes and artichokes. As he always does when visiting an Italian restaurant for the first time, my husband ordered Chicken Parmigiana. He said the sauce was tasty but the cheese could have been better quality. The chicken was pounded and done perfectly.
There is a small bar. We skipped the hard liquor – my husband had a beer and I had a glass of wine from their shall but varied list. You could also order a bottle.
Our server was friendly and attentive. The noise level was low to medium so it was easy to have good conversation. Prices were much better than we are used to.
I’m sure we will be visiting Vinny’s again in the near future to try it some of the other menu items.

This food here honestly didn’t seem too quality focused. It tasted cheap to me, and tasted so similar to something I regularly get at Olive Garden that tastes better! All of my crew agreed that our food isn’t what we expected and left disappointed.
The saving grace is that this place is GORGEOUS. It has high roofing, decorated with all sorts of Italian design. The koi pond under the porch as you walk in is a very nice touch that I’ve never seen before.
All in all, yes, I will try this place again someday, but it is not happening any time soon. Maybe I went on a bad timeframe because I see how highly this place is rated, but don’t see why it is.
It’s on you on if you would like to come here. I do not personally recommend it. There are much better places in this area.
