Food was excellent. Very tasty and authentic. Due to the Corona Virus, place was relatively empty for a saturday night so was expecting faster service, but it wasn't bad!

Vago recently moves from East 34th Street to 3rd Avenue. It was our first visit, and we were all impressed with the food and service. The prices are reasonable, too.
