" I wasn't sure about this place at first based on the layout where you order and then find your table, but once the food arrived, I was sold! I tried the Margherita pizza and it had the right amount of sauce and fresh basil. You can taste the authenticity in the ingredients which is refreshing. My only complaint is the wait time during peak hours could be a bit longer than expected. Still a place I'd recommend to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Definitely a hidden gem! I heard about Vecchia from a friend and decided to check it out. The moment I walked in, I was enchanted by the delightful aromas wafting from the kitchen. My first order was the Sicilian salad, and it was so fresh with a delightful dressing. The Carni pizza that followed was fully decked out with quality toppings. The only downside was there were a few tables that felt a bit cramped for space. Still, the flavors more than made up for it! Back soon for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Been to Vecchia several times now, and each time it just gets better! The pasta is made fresh daily and you can really tell the difference. It adds that homemade touch that makes it so comforting. If you appreciate Italian cuisine, you owe it to yourself to try the lasagna and their unique Nutella pizza for dessert. The staff is fantastic too, always making sure you're taken care of. A restaurant that feels like home every time you walk in! " (*Curated Review*)

" Vecchia stole my heart! The blend of flavors in their pizza was simply exquisite. From the moment we entered, the employees were welcoming, and the atmosphere was lively. We ordered a mix of traditional antipasti and pizzas, and everything was gone in minutes. They even offered cooking classes which I am strongly considering for the future! I highly recommend the Nutella pizza for dessert. It was unlike anything I've ever tried! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved Vecchia! The garlic knots were a terrific start and had plenty of flavor. For my main, I had the Quattro Formaggio Pizza and it was heavenly. Authentic pizza at its best with real Italian cheeses that melted in your mouth. The restaurant has a casual vibe, great for families but still pleasant for a date night. Only reason I'm giving them a lower rating on service is that it took a while to get seated even when the place was not too crowded. Overall, I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" First of all, the location is charming, next to a park with outdoor seating. The pizza was good, though I found it a bit greasy for my taste. It's definitely not heavy on toppings, so if that's what you're looking for, it might not be your spot. However, the crust was remarkably thin and baked perfectly. The service was friendly, but a little slow given the rush the night I went. I would consider giving it another shot because the lasagna looked amazing at the next table! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was our second trip to Vecchia, and we love it! The staff are friendly, and the pizza is some of the best I've had outside of Italy. The chef was visible preparing our meals, and it's clear he takes pride in what he does. Each dish we've tried has been pure joy. I think we finally found our go-to Italian restaurant!
