Vinum is the result of the love for Italian food and wine! Executive Chef and restaurateur Massimo Felici’s passion for food started as a young boy growing up in New York. Now he proudly introduces Vinum; the concept offer's a fun menu with small dishes, appetizers and an extensive wine list by the glass program.

Felici felt Staten Island was missing a place where guests could share small dishes and appetizers as their whole meal. He's confident that Vinum will satisfy this need.

What a find. What a delight! We entered through the doors from a deluge of rain and parking hassles to find a cozy, charming atmospheric old time small, intimate restaurant inside where the food was fantastic, the service was personal and perceptive and the overall experience was old style and harkened to a more pleasurable, less fraught time. A secret other worldly dining experience set behind drab doors on dingy Bay Street on less-traveled Staten Island.

I never leave reviews, this place is amazing! The food is astronomical! Usually dine in NYC and Jersey, decided to stay local in Staten Island, the experience was unreal. The food is so good I can’t believe I’ve never been here before. My server Lauren was on top of her game truly gracious and pleasant. The FOOD is insane. The atmosphere is perfect for old souls and a little romance. My new favorite place! We’ll be back! Can’t wait to plan a party, perfect venue!!!

This place is amazing! I'm upset I did not book a table sooner. The decor is great, it's very quant and cozy. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The dishes were so yummy and so were the drinks. Great experience from beginning to end. I felt like I spent Christmas eve with close friends that I haven't seen in awhile but it was just the staff at Vinum :)

Service was fine until I received the wrong entree. After a wait of 15 minutes, the correct entree arrived undercooked and inedible. Have dined multiple times previously there without a problem but after tonight will not be revisiting. A comped glass of wine just didn't solve the issue.

Really pretty place, warm and welcoming staff. We shared grilled octopus Portuguese style to start with roasted potatoes, olives, tomatoes and onions. Mains were paccheri with boar ragu and chicken val d’aosta. An apple tart and tartufo for dessert. Everything was expertly prepared and delicious. Excellent wine selection as you’d expect from a wine bar. Thoughtful attention to detail - the occasion was my husband’s birthday and his dessert was brought out with a candle. We won’t wait for a special occasion to return.

We have dined at Vinum many times. Unfortunately, last night, celebrating a special birthday, the experience was very disappointing!!! The noise level- shouting adults and screaming children- was uncalled for. The service was sub par. There were flying ants around our banquet that landed on us and our food while we dined. The food was acceptable. It is sad to have to say this but it’s true.

It's not a Michelin Star or the Michelin catalog. The food was not tasty. The duck was tasteless. Everything is expensive for no reason. I have never seen a waitress eat at the bar. But our waitress ate, but this restaurant in the Michelin catalog, how it is possible. Absolutely do not recommend it

Food was great. Portions were generous and just right. Very good wine selection. Place is small and underwhelming. Bistro like environment which if you are going for a special occasion will take you aback. Parking is very difficult. Neighborhood is a bit of a work in progress as it struggles to define itself as a place to go.

Consistently among the best, if not THE best on Staten Island. Excellent, fresh, and unique ingredients lead to superior, inventive takes on everything from classics like chicken scarpariello to braised ribs, to spaghetti with white claim sauce, to chicken parmesan. Not surprising as Chef Massimo Felici and his staff has built a three restaurant empire that never disappoints
