    Food quality was less than experienced in the past and costs were very high. Beautiful setting.

    I ordered a meal that looked fabulous in the menu was very very pricey, but honestly, it was kind of average I would’ve expected more for what I paid The service over was great and the ambience was very nice. We were inside because outside is too noisy. It’s right by the road but there is a view of the ocean

    Great atmosphere & view. Food was outstanding, wonderful crab cakes for starter, scallops were so tender & the sauce was delightful. Great wine list. Loved the tiramisu.

    What a fantastic location & a variable menu of first class Italian & seafood dishes. Portions/servings are huge, consider sharing a main entree. The calamari....bravo!!!

    We were celebrating our anniversary and picked Vigilucci’s as our venue and couldn’t have been happier. Food was delicious, service outstanding and lovely ocean view. Unfortunately it was a little on the loud side with many large groups dining at the same time.
