    Delicious food. A good reminder of some of my Italian mother’s cooking. My husband said his lasagna was best he’s had. My risotto was perfecto! Five star service and ambiance. We will definitely go back!

    The first time I went there was very nice. The 2nd, they gave me a soup that said VG with only veggie ingredients listed on the menu with bacon in it. Then, they blamed me for not giving my dietary restrictions even though they never asked. Then, they brought a different soup that basically was tomato sauce, and I had to pay 20 bucks for it. Very disappointing and very over-priced for what I received.

    We had a wonderful evening at Vela celebrating our 40th anniversary. Diego was a fabulous waiter. Gracious and helpful. Rosario the hostess was also wonderful and made us feel very special. The Greek salad was both beautiful to look at and delicious. The shrimp pesto linguine was also delish! We’ll be back!
