We had terrible service last night. Our server did not communicate well, the person who delivered our food essentially threw it onto the table in front of us, my order was wrong - food allergy was not accommodated and I had to repeatedly ask them to fix it appropriately after struggling to even get a server’s attention. I’ve been to Vinny’s many times over the years and never had this bad of an experience. I will likely not go back based on this experience.

Truly good food and service to match. Vinny’s menu is a cut above most of the newer popular restaurants in Alpharetta.

This was our first visit back in 5-7 years. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food, freshness and menu diversity. The cocktails were spot on and the wine selection impressive.

Throughly enjoyed the food and champagne. It is a bit overpriced. Waiter was good but didn’t course out the meal well. I don’t want to control the pace by not ordering everything at once. They brought the appetizer and salad at the same time as we had ordered them at the same time. Luckily we waited to order main dishes. Could use a few more healthy dishes. Even the fish came with risotto or buttery potato/squash puree.

Great food and setting. However, it’s almost always loud in the restaurant. Makes it tough to enjoy your meal sometimes…
