Vinny's Clam Bar offers a fun and inviting atmosphere with "excellent food" and "amazing service." Diners rave about the fresh seafood, especially the oysters and shrimp scampi. While some note the music can be loud, the vibrant energy adds to the charm. It's a must-visit for seafood lovers!

    We chose to go to Vinny's Clam Bar on a cold Saturday night for the "Circuses" , and this restaurant always lifts our spirits from the time we walk in the door until we leave. The service is aways fantastic, the music on the weekends brings us back to when we went to dance clubs. The food alone would bring us back to Vinny's , but on this cold winter night, only Vinny's could warm our spirits!

    A female manager was incredibly rude to my wife and child for sitting in a place we were directed to sit. We have no problem being accommodating but the way she approached us wad incredibly hostile and critical of my wife, even went as far as to criticize her parenting even though we sat exactly where the restaurant directed. We like the place and the food, but would never go back because of her attitude towards us.

    We apologize that you were incorrectly seated at a table where we do not have space for a stroller or high chair. Management perceived this to be a safety issue. We are disappointed this came across as critical.
