A word from Vin Antico

Chef Ed Vigil creates a menu featuring local, organic products, many of which are created in Marin county. The menu reflects the seasons and changes often. Vin Antico is intimate and cozy and has a San Francisco feel. We make our own pasta by hand every day. We cure our own meats. We make… everything to order. Our food is always seasonal. Food raised with love tastes better. See you at the Farmers' Market! Continued

"I'd heard a lot about this place from friends and was excited to try it out. It didn't blow my socks off. It was good... but pretty expensive for what we had. The service was very attentive and very informative. The ambiance was also very nice. However, I can cook high quality organic, locally sourced food at home, so that simply isn't enough. So when I go out to eat, especially at $18 a plate for pasta and $30 or more for fish or meat, I want it to be outstanding."

"This is a small place, but too personable to be called intimate. It's goal is hopefully to serve creative, tasty dishes for if so the chef has succeeded. Do not go if you want to eat something you have enjoyed before elsewhere; do go if you have adventurous tastes. You may not like all the combinations on the ever changing menu, but you will find something worthy of your taste buds. I have on all three occasions over the past year."

"Service was casual and friendly but very attentive. Food was the star--from the flatbread and carpaccio starters to the duck ravioli main. Even their side dish of mixed vegetables was imaginative and perfectly cooked. Food portions varied from dish to dish (their cobbler was huge, but their flourless chocolate cake tiny), so ask."
