We had a party of 9. The service was top notch. Our group went for the Timpano that they only make once a month. It’s unique and a lot to eat. It was a little dry my opinion and could use a more sauce. Because everybody ordered the Timpano I ordered the Italian Fried Chicken big mistake. Way over cooked extremely dry.

Vinoteca has the best Lasagna in the World!! Not only is the food and service spectacular, I would continue to go there regularly just for their bread and balsamic/EVO garlic/basil dipping sauce! You will be welcomed by Skye and the rest of the Vinoteca team! Great wine and drinks too. Five Stars!!!

Was an easy in for a Saturday night dinner. Scallops with the mushroom risotto and fresh asparagus was excellent! Topped it off with a splurge of their banana cream pie!

Tried calling the restaurant to place a take out order and there was no answer after multiple attempts. Tried placing the take order online and their link for skytab was not working. The time was around 6pm, online shows their business hours open until 9pm but DoorDash showed the restaurant was not taking orders at that time. Frustrating to say the least. Won’t be ordering or dining from here anytime soon.

Went here for my birthday dinner 10/19/2022 and was extremely disappointed with the taste of the food and the service. We ordered calamari for an appetizer but never got it, luckily we were not charged for it. I ordered the gnocchi with bolognese sauce and it was bland, not good. Caprese salad was okay. Walnut arugula salad was fine. When it came time to order dessert the waitress only took one of our orders and assumed that we were going to share. I had the tiramisu and once the waitress came back we were able to order the banana cream pie. The desserts were good hence the second star. I do not recommend this place.

I came here once many years back and it was pretty good. This time, while the service was great, the food was no good. I got the steak sandwich for lunch and it was just a big Ribeye on bread. Like they took a thick steak and slapped it between bread. Didn’t cut any fat off. Didn’t cut it into strips. Try to picture picking up a whole steak and ripping pieces off into your mouth. $100 for family of 4 with two young kids for lunch. They also charged extra for using a credit card.

Great service, authentic food for family, date night, or group of friends. The focaccia with olive oil, balsamic tapenade was fantastic! My linguine sauce was a bit salty, but his gnocchi was great.

It was the first time at this restaurant and was hoping to have a great experience but was very much disappointed. Restaurant was underwhelming, boarder on just clean enough that if you were not paying attention that you would not see how dingy the space was. The staff were friendly. Most of the customers were leftovers from the happy hour. The bread that was served was almost hard as if it had sat out most of the day. The food was ok, not very inspired. Chickenparm was over fried, the pasta was cooked well while the sauce lacked flavor other than tasting of one herb. The lasagna was pipping hot from being in a pizza oven to heat, so they got the right! The lasagna itself was made of finely ground meat (which made it taste weird) with very little pasta and no trace of ricotta cheese. The sauce used to top the lasagna tasted like it was not fresh made. We are exploring new Italian restaurants and after our meal felt this restaurant would be at the very bottom of our return list but not fully off the table for future consideration. When the bill came there was a cash price and card price listed. The restaurant charges you to use your credit card on already highly priced food. Fortunately, We had adequate cash to cover the bill and tip so we did not have to pay a card fee. If a restaurant cannot absorb the cost of doing business then raise your prices. Banks charge business customers to process cash just as credit card processors charge transactions fees so this fee makes no sense. The card fee is what pushed this restaurant off our return to list. Lastly, as I write this review my stomach feels as though I have a 20 lb rock sitting in my stomach and I am wondering what I was served that was not fresh…very very very very dissatisfied and disappointed because friends said this place was great at one time.
