   Everything was great, as always! Our server, Heather, was very attentive and very knowledgeable about the wine. We will definitely continue coming back, as Vasili’s is one of our favorite restaurants!

   Super tight seating. They need to space the tables out a bit.

   We were disappointed with the food for the first time - one of our friend's meals was sent back and the second attempt at it was equally bad. We have eaten here many times and it has been generally very good. It could have been an off night but the management did not handle it well. One ordered appetizer never arrived. After an accidental drink spill the waiter helped with cleanup but never brought a replacement beverage. The shrimp skewers dish was cold and we sent it back - they first brought it back re-heated like microwaved...which just looked unappealing - then they brought another and it was essentially cooked the same as the first. The did discount both from the bill - and our friend went without dinner (by that time the rest of us were done eating).

   We ordered gyros, halibut and shrimp. Everything was very fresh and prepared to perfection. We arrived 15 minutes prior to our reservation and were greeted promptly by a smiling team of host/hostesses and enjoyed a drink at the bar. The bar staff was very attentive and friendly. The highlight of our evening was our very enjoyable waitress, Heather, who should be commended. It was truly a delight to be seated in her section. She offered incredible food and beverage recommendations and appeared to really enjoy her job. Her warm personality made us feel right at home. Even though it was a busy evening, Heather frequently returned to our group to find out if there was anything else she could do to make our dining experience better. She is fabulous and our overall dining experience was outstanding!

   The food and service was great. We especially liked the kindness of your employee, Alma. She wasn’t our waitress, but helped to keep our table clean and made space for each course. She was sweet and kind and deserves a shout out for her hard work.

    The bartender and service were excellent—friendly, attentive, and made great drinks. We really enjoyed the appetizers and cocktails. However, the main courses didn’t quite meet expectations. We’d definitely return for the great atmosphere, drinks, and starters, but the entrées could use some refinement.
