  • Nick Jize

The restaurant was our venue for my wife's birthday celebration. We and our guests enjoyed the event in large part due to the attentive service from the staff and the quality of the food. To this day we still hear from our friends about how good the appetizers were and the main dishes. Than k you for exceeding our expectations More

  • Dori

Definitely the service was really great but the food was just OK. We had five people at our table. Hands-down the wild boar was the best. The Fruta de Mari was good. The lemon piccata chicken was over cooked and not good. Tiramisu was really just OK not great. And it wasn’t cheap. More

  • Rebecca Rainbolt

I was sorry that our meals were So so. I ordered the chicken picata and the meat was tough. My sister's gorganzola dish was mild. Our Caesar salad was bland. The greens were from the inside of the lettuce, and they were bitter and white in color. But our service was excellent More

  • Mrs. A

The service was great. However, we were sat near a wall (next to the bar entrance) and right after our appetizers arrived, a cockroach started crawling down the wall. When we notified the server, there was absolutely no urgency nor apology. More

  • Sandy Elliott

Celebrated my mother’s 92nd birthday last night. Service & food was excellent. Ordered appetizers, fried plate, mozzarella/tomato plate, pear salad, and for dinner the chicken Marsala, seafood pasta, salmon and sole fish, all good choices. More

  • Candace Jones

Welcome to little Italy. Marco and the team work hard. The Gnocchi are the best ever. Like. Ever. Fluffy and yummy. They melt in your mouth. The outdoor patio is great. Brought the dog and he was so happy with all the attention. FIVE STARS More

  • Edu Bardelli

The service in Vin Santo is outstanding, the atmosphere elegant and the food was good. My pasta with chicken was too oily, bud the gnocchi was good and the frittata very good. Also the profiteroles were good. We will return with friends. More

When we arrived, we got seated right away. We were asked if we wanted the high top tables or regular, we did not mind. The set up of the tables was nice, and the place felt romantic. There were a few people eating at the restaurant, but the

I'm super disappointed. I'm giving them three stars because the dog's food off of the cute Dog menu was hot and smelled delicious and the carpaccio appetizer was yummy. My $37 dinner of rack of lamb had a lot to be desired with overall meal

  • Brookecatz

Buckle up, this will be a long one! We moved to the area about 1.5 years ago, and this is by far the best dining experience we’ve had. The ambiance was wonderful. The restaurant is dark but each table has a little light which really set the

My friend and I had an amazing dinner at Vin santo last night. We sat outside, and Jose was our waiter, we had excellent service. The drinks were fantastic, probably the best Mojito I’ve ever had and she loved the Maddalena Chardonnay. Our

I took my husband here for our anniversary since he loves Italian cuisines. Overall, we did have a great night with appetizing foods, nice customer service and chilling atmosphere. However, I have to take away one star because they served

I came here with family for my 23rd birthday and they went above and beyond for our group; we couldn't have had better service. The staff was welcoming and very friendly, the food was absolutely delicious, and the birthday celebration was

Excellente! Dined at Vin Santo in DEC 22 and JAN 23; both experiences were fantastic mostly in part to the personable service by Michal who guided us through the dining menu and wine personally, professionally. Michal's service experience

We’ve been coming here since this place opened and we usually love it. The last couple of visits really left an unpleasant perception. After coming a few times, a friend of ours came with us with a Groupon and we noticed that the service

Delicious! My first time here. It was nice to see a good variety in the menu. I had a wild boar dish with mushrooms and pasta. For dessert I had the bread pudding with ice cream. Everything really good. Perfect portions. We’ll be back!

  • Joshua A.

Pretty solid Italian restaurant. Would make a great place to go for a date night. I just hope they augment their menu a little bit; they're got all the staples but I was hoping for some bucatini.

  • Jenny Xu

Came here with my family during the outdoor seating during COVID. First of all, the ambiance was great — there was live music DJed and also the lights and outdoor patio seating were great!

  • Juhi Singh

The restaurant has a great ambience. The outdoor seating has the fence covered with vines and looks beautiful with ambient lighting. The Gnocchi pasta and wild boar was really good.

Had a good time but got charged double on my card. Contacted the owner to get a refund on the extra charge but Umberto Pala (owner) never got back to me after a few messages. More

Taylor was a fantastic server he was in top off anything we needed all night. The food was amazing. The boar was soo tender and the meatballs were phenomenal. Will def be back.

  • Jeff Chen

Great atmosphere here as there is live singing on Friday night. Our waiter is super friendly. I like their seafood more than meat. There is a parking lot behind the building.
