We were treated like royalty! Mario and team took great care of us, recommended their favorites and even found a lovely table outside for us to have dessert. The only small thing that detracted from the wonderful experience was the noise carryover from the bar and/or the event upstairs. As we were celebrating our 20th anniversary, they came to the table and sang to us, finishing off a really superb meal in a fun way. We had a little of everything: burrata salad, chicken meatballs, halibut and pasta bolognese.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Sunday brunch on the waterfront patio. It is absolutely gorgeous and the atmosphere is serene and relaxing. The live entertainment is wonderful. Julie Schatz was performing on the day we were there. She's a very talented violinist, pianist and singer. The service is outstanding, and the brunch menu is excellent and also a great value for all you are getting. We were a party of 3 celebrating a friend's birthday and the staff went all out to make it special including a hand written birthday note and sparklers alight in her dessert bowl. I would highly recommend dining at Vetro or scheduling a special event. I will certainly be visiting again.
