    Was fine everything was fresh and nice menu just the food was all “fine” nothing special. There was no dish that we were wowed by. Everything was good just not great. But it’s a cute spot worth a try just not sure I’d go back. Sort of middle of the road.

    We’re all about keeping traditions alive — sometimes, the old way really is the best way. Our dishes are crafted with respect for classic recipes, bringing fresh ingredients into the mix but never compromising on authenticity. It’s tough to hear that we didn’t wow you, as we pour heart and intention into every plate. We’re not here to chase trends, but to serve honest, well-executed food. We hope you’ll reconsider and see the value in the care and tradition we put into every dish, and maybe give us another shot to impress you next time.

    Excellent food and service in a quaint restaurant setting. The fish was delicious with thick halibut choice served piping hot but not over cooked. Salads were fresh and tasty with light dressing. Server was well versed in the menu items and very attentive without being overbearing.

    What a great restaurant! The atmosphere, the service, the drinks, and of course the food! I loved my dish of black fettuccine, seafood and artichokes. The owner visited the tables and made all diners feel special.
    Vinotta RestaurantResponded on April 17, 2025
    Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the atmosphere, the service, and your meal — that black fettuccine is a favorite. It was a pleasure having you in, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
