   Excellent quality food. The whole menu is amazing. I can’t wait to come back and try other things! Everyone, especially the owner, was beyond friendly.

   I was really excited to try this restaurant, especially after reading all the great reviews. Unfortunately, my experience did not live up to all the hype. While the staff was amazing and attentive, the food was disappointing. We ordered the eggplant tower appetizer. The eggplant was a little too well done for my taste and the tomato that was served with it still contained the stem. A big no-no as far I'm concerned...the chef should know better. I ordered the cannelloni stuffed with crab meat - one of the specials on the menu. If there was crab meat in it, I was hard pressed to find/taste it!

   Cafe Vincotto is not only a must-try but is a place that should be in everyone’s regular rotation. This time around we started with eggplant tower and entrees included the rack of lamb special and the chicken/beef cacciatore over homemade noodles. Both were outstanding and the accompanying sauces were delicious. Finished off with the decadent banana pudding and a cappuccino. The service is impeccable and the owners, Tony and Bona, are lovely people and very hands-on and create a welcoming environment. It’s BYO which is a plus! But they do offer some selected wines if you forget to bring a bottle.

   Café Vincotto is the kind of place that keeps raising the bar, even when you think they can’t possibly get any better, they do. Every visit is a new experience, with thoughtful details, flawless service, and dishes that somehow manage to outdo the last. The staff sets the gold standard for hospitality, making you feel like a cherished guest rather than just another table. It’s rare to find a restaurant that surprises you every time, but Café Vincotto does exactly that.

   I didn't expect the food to be so good ~ everything we ordered was outstanding. It is small and noisy, but the food is worth it. we were never rushed and there were people waiting for a table when we left.

   Another warm welcome and excellent dinner at Café Vincotto. We enjoyed the eggplant tower and octopus appetizers. Our dinner entrées, squid ink pasta with seafood and parppadelle Bolognese were both delicious. A dinner here would not be complete without the homemade Baklava! Café Vincotto is BYOB and has easy parking.
