- MMarcellevipNew York City •30 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food is tasty, innovative, and rich (option for smaller portions for the pastas). The service is friendly and attentive but not intrusive. The restaurant is busy and not quiet, but the room in the front on the left is good for smaller parties of 4-7 because you can still have conversation above the background noise. This is my third visit to Vespaio, and I plan to return for their fresh, rich, innovative Italian dishes. Note: the entree sizes are huge and shareable.More infoVespaio AustinPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.7
- MMiriamChicago / Illinois •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoGreat experience from start to finish! When I made the reservation, only outdoor tables were available so I left a comment requesting to be moved inside if anything opened up - and immediately on checking in, the hostess offered a table inside. The decor is classic and welcoming. Drinks were brought almost immediately after ordering them. Enough staff that someone was always attending to us. Food was delicious, especially the cacio e pepe. Highly recommendMore infoSammie's ItalianPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.8
