Very serene atmosphere and decor, light jazz on the sound system soft enough to permit easy conversation. Friendly and attentive service, delicious food, right-sized portions, fairly priced. Excellent value and dining experience. We’d definitely go back.

Service was great and the food was absolutely fabulous! Everything we ordered (the appetizers, the pastas, the branzino, the wine) was so good that we wanted to come here again so we could try the other things. So worth the visit!

Found myself on the West side on a Sunday night and picked Vicini's because it was close. Simple and spectacular meal in a beautiful but understated setting. I had a wonderful beet appetizer special with arugula and a burrata dressing that knocked me out. The Amatriciana pasta was out if this world and very authentic. The dessert was an apricot and apple tart with an amazing crust and hard sauce topping. Only wished my wife was traveling with me because this place is definitely a date-night kind of place. Definitely plan on going back.

Very mediocre and absolutely not authentic. The primitivo red wine served chilled (I can only imagine to save money ). the carbonara which they claimed was 100% authentic tasted like it had cheddar cheese on it . More like Mac n cheese . The pasta was done well and the guanciale was good. Tiramisu desert was basically cream with some ladyfingers and a bit of coffee . Prepared in advance always but it took 30 minutes to get dessert . I won’t return

Fantastic food! The rigatoni, kale salad with beets were both delicious. The meal was well paired with a nice bottle of Sicilian wine.

Our delicious dinner was made even better by the superb service we received from our server, Kate. She was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and a delight to talk to. Each course was a delight for the eyes as well as the tongue.
