Excellent Service. Lighting was a bit bright and noise level was high - difficult to hear table conversations. Food was good all around. Skirt steak entree was delicious.

The food was great. It was a half an hour before we were seated and we got off to a slower start. Once the order was placed, however the service picked up and everything was really delicious.

We love the food, the atmosphere and the bloody Mary's at Vintage. A terrific spot for brunch and the eggs are always cooked to perfection. We also love the side salad that accompanies the meal and the level of service. Vintage always delivers a superb dining experience in a beautiful setting.

This place kind of looks like a laid back Miami lounge, but with an eclectic upper-scale bar food menu. Get the ahi tuna and lamb lollypops.
