    Our brunch at Vetro was fantastic. The food and service were second to none. A wonderful gentleman named Pure made our experience pleasant and very elegant.

    We had the fried calamari and a fregola salad special. Both were very good. The fried calamari was one of the best that we ever had, It was cooked perfectly. For entre, I had the seafood special which was good. My wife had the skirt steak, which she said was good, but it was different from the last time that she had it there. She preferred the way that they used to make it better. Overall, the service was good. the only small critique would be that we had to ask to have our water glasses refilled. Most restaurants would have a busboy come out every 15 minutes or so to fill customers' water glasses. That didn't seem to be happening here unless you asked to have them refilled.

    While the food, wine and service were excellent, for me personally, the noise level was overwhelming.

    Vetro is one of our favorite restaurants. It is always outstanding. This time we went to celebrate a birthday. There was a written birthday message, a sparkling birthday dessert and the singing of happy birthday. The food as always was beyond delicious. We love that dinner is not rushed which gives us time to enjoy our time there. The wait staff is always very attentive. A special shout out to our waiter Ricardo who was very helpful and pleasant. Thank you Vetro for another wonderful dining experience.
