    Overall great experience but a few small things could make it even better. Our reservation couldn’t be found in their system which wasn’t a big deal since it was fairly quiet, but if it was busier we likely wouldn’t have gotten a table. The atmosphere is very nice but the booths were wildly uncomfortable. Everything we ate was delicious, but the prices would keep us from eating there again.

    The Sunday special of Caesar salad and lasagne for two is excellent value and great tasting! So glad you repeated this from Winterdine 2024.

    Waited over one hour to get our food after placing our order with an apology, but no explanation. Restaurant wasn’t even busy.

    I booked a table for a romantic New Years Eve dinner. We waited 15 minutes after our reservation to be seated. When we did get a seat it was next to the busy bar with a big screen tv showing the hockey game. The waiters were running back and forth in front of our table with chairs and cleaning supplies. People kept putting the butts in our face as they sat at the bar. We asked to be moved and were told there were no other seats available. We ordered the NYE special for dinner. A steak and lobster and pasta. Again we waited a hour to be served. The steak was extremely small and the pasta dish had 5 pieces. For $65 I expected a lot more. On the plus side, the food was well prepared and tasted good, but not great. After sharing this experience with friends they agreed and told of similar situations when trying dine at Vicinato. I will not be going back to Vicinato, the service, the food, and the value were all terrible.

    We went here for a 40th Birthday dinner. There were 6 of us and we made a reservation online. We were sat promptly. The server was fine but we definitely had better service elsewhere. We ordered the whipped ricotta app which was amazing and I highly recommend. The complimentary bread came out when we were eating our apps as the server forgot to deliver. We ordered a few drinks they were ok but high priced for what they were. The mains we order were short rib cannoli and Margarita pizza with hot honey on the side. The cannoli was cold in the middle and the texture of the middle was not great I would not order again unfortunately (the server didn’t come back for a bit to check on our meals). The margarita pizza was tasty however the server didn’t leave the honey and barely put any on the pizza. When paying $3 for the honey you should be able to add when you want. We then ordered dessert as we were celebrating a 40th birthday. Server seemed overwhelmed or distracted as it was typically other ppl delivering the items and no acknowledgment of the Birthday. When the server came over for bills he seemed confused as to what we ordered and how things would be split with the food. I think the server needs more training or perhaps less tables until they are confident in their abilities. We would come back but we would not get certain items again.

    Having been to Italy recently , I was looking to relive the food experience. Vicinato did not disappoint with its more modern take on Italian cuisine . The food was delicious , the courses paced nicely and the service excellent . I will return !

    The ambience was great, upscale, nicely decorated. Service was outstanding, very attentive did not rush. They started with specialty bread with house butter and honey - wow! I had the veal, my wife had the haddock. We shared a potato side and grilled vegetable side and there was a good portion for two. All dishes were fantastic! Shared the tiramisu - very authentic and tasty. Might be the best restaurant in town!
