" Wow, just wow! VAI's exceeded my expectations on all fronts. We came for our anniversary dinner, and they went above and beyond to make it special. The ambiance was romantic, with soft lighting and cozy seating. We decided to go with several small plates to share, including the eggplant fritti and roasted mussels—everything was exquisite! Additionally, the staff was attentive without being overbearing, and we felt genuinely welcomed. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Italian fare, VAI's is definitely worth a visit! From the moment we walked in, I was struck by the warm and inviting decor. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the rigatoni and garlic bread, which were both well executed. However, we did experience some slow service during our visit, but nothing that detracted too much from the meal. I will be back to give it another shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Celebrated our anniversary at VAI's last night, and it couldn't have been better! We were greeted warmly by the host, and our server was attentive throughout the meal without being intrusive. The food was scrumptious; I devoured the lobster ravioli that was topped with a rich sauce. For dessert, we indulged in their tiramisu, and it was heavenly. It was such a lovely evening that we are already planning our return visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to VAI's last month was excellent! The atmosphere struck a nice balance between vibrant and intimate. I recommend the New York Strip; it was cooked to perfection and served with amazing sides. I will say, however, the service was a bit slow during peak hours, which is why I'm giving a slightly lower rating in that area. Still, the food quality makes it worth it. I’ll certainly return and perhaps try the patio dining next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is our favorite restaurant for family gatherings! VAI's always impresses with its extensive menu and high-quality food. The veggie options are plentiful and never disappoint. The service quality usually ranges from good to excellent. Sometimes we’ve experienced delays, but we enjoy the atmosphere and the food so much that it’s easily overlooked. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a hearty Italian meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family to VAI's for dinner last Saturday, and we were wowed by the experience! The appetizers were plentiful and delicious, and the mains did not disappoint either. I had the rigatoni with meat sauce, and it was the tastiest version I have had in ages. The ambiance is inviting, making you feel relaxed yet celebrated. Make sure to book in advance; it was packed when we arrived! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at VAI's was over the top excellent! The seafood dishes were fresh and flavorful, but the real standout was the tiramisu dessert—it was heavenly! The atmosphere is classy yet comfy, perfect for dates or celebrations. Service was attentive, and we never felt rushed at all. I’ll be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
