Valentinos — Restaurant in Worcester

Well... what can I say? Maybe I've outgrown a bar scene, maybe my standards are too high, I don't know anymore....

So my former boss and I met up on Shrewsbury Street to catch up after 10 years or so... It's Saturday afternoon, 4 PM, and The Pint was closed until 6, so we strolled down the street and found what was open and quiet (quiet until a bunch of youngsters showed up).

Stepped in pitch black with 1 TV flickering behind a bar 🍸 Sat there and ordered drinks. The menu shows pictures of classic Margherita glasses, but they serve it in a plane tall, ribbed glass, so if you are looking for any kind of sofistication, forget it. And forget the salt, slush, or on the rocks offer...

My boss wanted Patron and splash of Cointreau... they said they didn't have Cointreau, but they would put in a triple sec instead (which is supposed to be in Margherita to begin with 😅)

We also ordered chicken potstickers as an appetiser, which looked like they were tortured before being served. The ones from Traders Joe's will beat that kitchen any day.

So, to make a long story short, 4 drinks and 8 potstickers ran us $80 with a tip, a good tip.

It's not a cheap date if you ask me. Next time, I'll be...

I had a great time at Valentino’s during my night out in Worcester. Bruno, who served us, was kind and attentive, even as the bar got busier. He made sure we were well taken care of, which we really appreciated. It was clear he was working hard to keep everything running smoothly.

One of the highlights for me was ordering a drink that came with a cute rubber ducky floating in it. It was such a fun touch, and it brought a smile to both my friend and boyfriend’s faces. Little details like that really added to the enjoyment of the night.

Joe, another bartender, also stood out. When I had to step away briefly, he kindly kept my drink behind the bar until I returned. Even though he was busy, he made sure everyone at the bar was having a good time, which made a big difference.

The DJ, Brecko, played an amazing mix of music that had everyone dancing and singing along. The vibe was lively, and the music made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening, whether you were dancing or just chatting with friends.

Valentino’s is a great spot in Worcester for a fun night out. The service, music, and atmosphere all came together to create an experience I’ll definitely remember. I’m looking forward to...

I just wanted to write a review about this young man Ryan he is a bartender at Valentino's I had a group of 10-20 people with me that night not only had he a great attitude towards us but also he made sure we are welcomed, greeted and served. He is true hearted and didn’t want to take advantage of the individuals that had one to many

There was an incident when a young man insulted me and my group calling me names , Ryan came over with security to make sure us girls where ok and if we needed any assistance. Not that he had too , it just shows that his character is pure and has his eyes opened at all times , at the bar , watching the crowd and making sure his guests are safe. I truly wanted to thank Ryan for all he has done for us , this was most of our groups first time there and we are planning on celebrating many more events at Valentinos because of him .

P.S Big Boss this man deserves a raise and a...
