GOT FOOD POISIONING THE FOLLOWING DAY. The night of got the runs and thought nothing of it will the next day I had to leave work early due to the pains and constantly having to be on the toilet.
Told to sit anywhere on the one side which we did and of course we happened to sit at a table that hadn't been wiped down. There were 4 family's in the restaurant and the table was cleared prior to us entering and just off putting that it wasn't wiped down right after it was cleared. -The root beer tasted flat and missing flavor -The tortellini sauce had no flavor and same thing with the chicken parm Sandwich. The chicken was ok but nothing to wow over. -first time I've been anywhere that I put so much pepper flakes on my food and it had no taste or heat to it at all. Like it was dried out and old. Normally I sprinkle a few shakes to add heat to my food but I literally opened the container and ate a straight pinch of fit and had no flavor or heat at all. both meals were mildly warm when they came to the table waitress was nice but you can tell they both didn't work or help out one another on the different tables. The other waitress walked by my table 4 times empty handed while I had my empty glass at the end of the table and I didn't get a refill till my waitress came by. Had football games on and both TVs had the news on them. Even if your not into sports you should have atleast one tv with some sort of sporting event on.
All around not impressed and will not be going back. Been here once in the past and had a decent experience but obviously things have gone down hill a bit. Very...
Read moreWas excited to try Vinny's after seeing all the superb reviews.. It was a little underwhelming. Ordered for to-gp the spaghetti w/ creamy marinara add shrimp with a small antipasto salad and the total came out to $27! Wow, almost $30 for a meal for myself.
Spaghetti w/ creamy marinara- I expected this to be more creamy. It was more watery than I thought it would be. Definitely need to add shrimp or chicken because it would be so bland without it. Btw, shrimp was extra $5!!!
Antipasto salad- this was the real reason I wanted to try Vinny's. The salad looked so damn good! Tip: ask for the italian and ranch sauce and mix it together for creamy italian. The salad would have been good but there was hardly any lettuce in it! I felt like I was eating only deli meat and cheese, so it was sooo salty. Please add more lettuce into your salad!
The garlic bread was pretty good though. All in all, nothing special. Not sure if I will be back. Seems like the locals like it. Just an observation, but when I went to go pick up my order, the counter was a mess. At least 3 people's orders were messed up in some way but everyone was ok with it and they all seemed...
Read moreTonight, I was invited to eat at Vinnies by a buddy and his group. I was told the food was good. Reality check, my friend apologized about the disgusting “lasagna” and abysmal service I experienced. I ate 2 bites and told my friend I can’t eat another bite of this horrible dish. The best lasagna around is at Roma Cucina in Fullerton. This was not as good as any frozen lasagna out there. This lasagna had an awful taste that I can’t describe. I do not like leaving negative reviews unless it was an awful experience. This is one of those cases. To make matters worse, when the waiter came up to ask if we wanted our dishes packaged to go I told him that my lasagna was the worst ever, and not edible. If the waiter were a pro he would have cone by mid service to ask how our food was, I would have told him to remove my dish but he never showed up till the end. This untrained waiter didn’t even offer to not charge me because I didn’t eat but 2 bites. Folks, stay away from this dump. It’s not a true Italian restaurant. 1 star is too high for...
