    Vintana is one of our favorites. The calamari appetizer is probably the best preparation I’ve ever had. I ALWAYS order it and it’s large enough to share. We both had the fish and chips for lunch and the fish was so tender and flaky. The fries had Old Bay Seasoning lightly added to them and they were delicious. Our server Ciara is THE BEST! I was there recently twice with friends and this third time with my husband and she was my server all 3 times. She’s cheerful, knowledgeable and attentive and really makes you feel welcome. The ambience is beautiful and comfortable. Will continue to go back often.

    Unusual location as it’s at the top of the Lexus dealer, but everything was top-notch. Loved it and we consider coming back again

    We went here for a birthday celebration and it was great. The braised short rib is amazing and the mud pie was ridiculously good. It could have fed 4 people, easily.

    Piped music was a bit too loud, but otherwise a very pleasant experience. Food was great, and Nick, our server, was terrific.

    We went to celebrate my third win for the Senior Golf Championship. My husband shared the news with the hostess. When waitress Ireland came over and said I heard we’re celebrating your third win. That was absolutely wonderful to be acknowledged. We ordered oysters very fresh. We had a beautiful bottle of wine quilt. Then we shared the Caesar salad and the braised short rib, which was absolutely delicious. Ireland was so attentive as well as the others. Always reminded that Vintana is the place to go to.

    Horrible service! Went for a business lunch. Place was deserted. Nobody around for several minutes at the host station to greet us. Finally got seated, promptly placed our food and beverage at the same time. Drinks arrived fairly quickly, as did the lobster bisque. Waiter made periodic passes through the dining area. Exchanged curious looks. 45 minutes after sitting down, we asked the waiter when our food would come out. He said right away. Another 10 minutes passed, no food. We asked to have food put in to go boxes, but food came out plated a few minutes later. We proceeded to put our food in to go containers that arrived. At least the check came and was processed quickly. Unacceptable service. There were maybe 3 or 4 other tables, so it's not like the kitchen would've been swamped. I debated asking for some sort of discount due to the disappointing service, but since I was hosting the business lunch, I felt that might have put off my guests. I frequent Cohen restaurants, especially Vintana's, never had such disappointing service. Do better, Vintana's!

    Had a lovely birthday lunch with a good friend on the top dining level. The service was excellent, and the kitchen was very adaptable in making minor changes to parts of the meal to avoid specific food allergies. A lovely view and even better food and service. We went during the week for a quieter venue and it was delightful. Definitely recommend!
