    From the time you walk in and see the jumbo shrimp and oysters on the open fire grill, you know you are in for a tantalizing experience! The service was on point, on time and absolutely welcoming. Our waiter and the team that worked with him throughout the night were amazing. Every bite of food and every sip of our cocktails complimented one another and our waiter was so well versed in the menu and assisted us in choosing the best experience for us. Downtown quality and service 15 minutes from home is the perfect recipe for my family to come back and make this one of our new neighborhood faves! Kudos to all of you!!!!

    I think the oysters were very pricey but we had to try them. The bread and oil was delicious. I had the meatball sandwich. I thought was a bit small for $18.00. Another person had the raviolis they were very good and was a very nice portion. Our server George was very good. We were not happy when there was a gathering in the back room got very loud

    Love Vinny’s and staff & will be coming back. I think our waitress had an off night but her coworkers all stepped in and helped us when we needed it. 💜
