   I had a nice, enjoyable lunch at Il Vecchio Cafe. The $24, three course meal had a nice selection. Perfect for a quiet time to catch up with the person I was with. Have been many times and will go back again.

   I was celebrating my friend’s 50th birthday, they failed to tell me that the restaurant was closed due to a Private event. My only options that were given at the moment of my arrival were to sit at the bar , along with loud music and children around or to sit outside. We chose to seat outside and even though there were heaters it still felt very uncomfortable because of the cold wind. Luckily the food and the service was good.

   I haven’t been back here since Covid and I’m not sure if it changed or I did, but I was a little disappointed. The Cesar salad had no flavor and we were served our meal before we finished our salads (the place was not busy, maybe half the tables were empty). My pasta was good and the service was good but I just felt really rushed. We sat, ordered, and ate our salad and meal all within about 40 minutes and for a nicer Italian place usually things are paced a little slower so you can enjoy. If it had been busy I’d get it but it wasn’t so I was kind of let down. Wait staff was really nice, pasta was great, always a beautiful vibe but there are other similar places I’d go to so we could enjoy some time out with family and not feel rushed.

   We made a reservation on a Tuesday night and were quickly seated at 7 pm. We ordered an appetizer and 2 pasta dishes. After 45 minutes of waiting, all we had received was bread and our drinks. We asked where our appetizer was and were told that it accidentally hadn't been put in but they put it in with a rush. An hour later, our pasta finally came followed by our appetizer which we no longer wanted since it came after the entree. Pasta was good but service and wait was terrible.

   Loved everything! Went for pasta/lasagna tasting special and enjoyed it very much. Blake, our waiter, was lovely.
