The food at Vilorio’s was excellent—every dish we tried was flavorful and delicious, and the cozy atmosphere made for a nice setting, though it was a little on the loud side.
The drinks were good but inconsistent. My lemon basil martini was fantastic the first time, perfectly balanced, but the second leaned heavy on basil and turned a bit bitter. Both were strong though, which we appreciated.
Service, however, brought the experience down. Our server seemed impatient when we needed a few extra minutes with the menu (we were meeting family for the first time and chatting), and she seemed annoyed with us for the rest of the meal. Our appetizer arrived after the entrées, and my dad’s pizza came out long after everyone else’s food. It was uncomfortable sitting there trying not to eat while he had nothing in front of him.
Overall, the food was incredible, and I’d definitely return for the kitchen, but I hope the service becomes more attentive and consistent to match the quality of the...
Read moreWow this place has character and some great food! Our first try at this place was for Monday night supper club, a three course pre fixe meal with a beer that simply can't be beat.
If you come for the supper club you'll be sat with the other members (who are all super friendly and welcoming!). Our three course meal started with some friend eggplant with fresh tomato and basil sauce, which presented a really fresh and delicious flavor. After the eggplant we got a nice chopped salad with some fruit and geese in it that was quite good and we finished up the main with delicious prime rib, breaded Mac and cheese and some broccoli with sun dried tomato.
This place is clearly run by staff that knows what they are doing, strives to deliver a quality mea and is super friendly to boot!
We had the pleasure of speaking with Paula, one of the owners and she really made us feel welcome.
I would absolutely repeat the supper club night but can't wait to try out a normal...
Read moreTaken here by my guy to celebrate my birthday, we very much enjoyed our seating at the Bar. We dined early, so was able to be offered seating at their bar. Reservation must be made for table seating. Very boutique atmosphere, our server was hard working & the mixologist was a delight. We went on a Saturday, so they were fairly busy as it became later in the night. It was one of the coldest nights that weekend, so we lucked out in not calling ahead for availability. My surf & turf dish was well balanced, & i savored every bite. The Mark Black Martini was followed by a 2nd, which i rarely do (it WAS my b-day however). The kitchen staff of woman excelled in their presentation of varied dishes. An excellent play list of top 40 songs had me humming along as mine & me ate. I would definitely recommend this restaurant as one of the best on N. Washington St. in North...
