    Lasagna with bread knots.
    Ed H.

    Del Vecchios was a recommended place in Asheville so we tried it out for a late lunch after running a few errands in town. You order at the counter and we were greeted with a smile as we came in. We ordered a meat calzone and their lasagna. We enjoyed the fresh hot food that was served with a smile from the waitress. Portions were ample and we will enjoy the leftovers later. The restaurant was clean and quiet with plenty of seating. Typical pizzeria atmosphere.

    Fresh Tomato & Basil (GF penne, sausage, vegan cheese)
    Luca D.

    Service and ambiance worked out well. I got the fresh tomato and basil pasta dish on GF penne, with the additions of garlic, onions, sausage, and vegan cheese. The flavors worked out, but the pasta was pretty broken and the veg was inconsistently cooked due to being unevenly cut. So it appears some dishes are better than others.

    Baked Ziti Parm
    Jaime S.

    I love,love Del Vecchios food! I just personally never had dined in until today. I'm really hesitant about counter service because you don't know how it's going to go but I must say theirs is the best Ive ever had! They had a little bench that we sat at and looked over the menu. The man running the register was super nice and helpful! They bring you your food and they even came around and checked on us! We had a large garden salad for a starter. Oh my goodness that combo of fresh vegetables is amazing! I have the Baked Ziti Parm and my boyfriend got the steak and cheese with fries! Soooo good and so much food I probably have dinner for 2 days! And I'm not mad about that! Prices are great too! The restaurant has an Italian restaurant vibe with tables and booths. I like that the to go boxes were on the back wall too! AND they have a REAL Chicago style pizza so we will have to go back to try it!

    Sheesh!

    They have legitimate vegan options y'all (hopefully they consider adding a vegan-meat option at some point), but verified that the regular crust is vegan-friendly and dairy free, including the crust made for the calzones and bolis! Customize your pizza/zone/boli and you are able to add "special notes" online to notate you would like it to be prepared vegan-friendly. Highly recommend as an easy takeout option on Merrimon

    Surprisingly crispy pizza
    Wendy R.

    Impromptu lunch spot next to wine store was a HUGE HIT!! The cheese sticks were crispy outside and string cheesy on the inside served with a perfect marinara! The crust on this pizza was GREAT -CRISPY and not super thin or super thick. It held the perfect amount of sauce and toppings. The cheese was the perfect blend and flavorful. Fresh, not canned mushrooms ! Sounds crazy but even the Coke was calibrated to perfection. Definitely will go back. Unexpected strip mall spot!!!

    Hi! When will your South Asheville location be open? Thanks.

    It's open!

    I would like to order for pickup online, ie your website, without having to have a third party company to deliver?

    You can either call the restaurant directly to place a pickup order (828)258-7222 or you can choose the pickup option on any of the third party online ordering websites we have partnered with.

    What is the gluten free pasta made of?

    It is made by Barilla. All ingredients are easily searchable, but I think for your purposes the answer is a combo of corn and rice.

    I see that you have vegan cheese but is there a menu that lists what can be made vegan? Or is it just pizza that can be vegan?

We were in Asheville celebrating our anniversary, and while on the hunt for excellent Italian, came across Vinnie's on Yelp. Now this place is old school, honestly, somewhat to their detriment. No reservations allowed. When you arrive, you give your name, but there is no system whatsoever to let you know it's your turn. No pager, no text, nada. They're also quite popular, so there's not really enough room to wait comfortable inside, it was cold outside, so we just went to sit in the car and pass time as our estimated hour wait chipped away. I came in just to check at half an hour, and they still felt it would be another 30. We came in to wait 15 minutes later, and then started to see people we knew came in after us getting seated. I went to check again, and we'd missed our name being called. They did seat us right away after that... but this just highlights why yelling out a name really isn't sufficient when you typically have waits like this. You can make a free text number for the business to text from on several services if you wanna do something free and rudimentary. Once seated, issues unfortunately did not cease, but thankfully the food we ordered that we actually received was phenomenal. Our server was overly attentive, which is preferable to the alternative, but it made it hard to enjoy each other's company. That attentiveness did not extend to getting our order correct though, our salads never came. They were removed from the bill without issue of course, and in the end, we had plenty to eat (and delicious leftovers). With three entirely preventable issues though, it would have been hard for me to give this experience a 5. The food though... absolutely a FIVE. Arancini was lovely. Crisp but not overly crunchy outside, creamy satisfying texture inside, and an immaculate sauce. Complimentary bread slayed. My lasagna cracked my top 5 of all time, as did my wife's baked ziti. Their sauce recipes here have been honed to perfection, and as you'd expect in Asheville, reflect local and fresh suppliers more than likely. It couldn't taste this good without fresh ingredients. So despite all the issues leading up to the food, the food was so good, we would come back and go for it again. We'll know next time to be more diligent with the host stand, much to their dismay, and just hope for a less chaotic experience overall.

Our table ordered a variety of dishes from the burrata spaghetti to the tortellini alla panna to a fish dish and a bolognese. These dishes were ok. There was a nutmeg flavor in my tortellini alla panna that wasn't really for me. Our server was beyond kind and I really liked the staff here. I'm glad I stopped in again to try the pasta!

I was in communication with Lindsay for over four months while exploring options for hosting my wedding dinner in their private dining space. Out of more than 10 venues and vendors we considered, she was the only one who consistently showed up with prompt, thoughtful, and genuinely kind communication. Every question I had--no matter how detailed or repetitive--was answered with patience and care. She made herself available through all my moments of uncertainty, which, as any out-of-state bride can attest, is invaluable. When we finally visited in person, Lindsay went above and beyond by accommodating us outside of regular scheduling. Her attentiveness and warmth never wavered. Planning a wedding from afar can feel overwhelming, but having someone like her in your corner brings a level of reassurance that cannot be overstated. Dinner itself was nothing short of exceptional. We were served by Tennille, who elevated the entire experience. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and incredibly personable. Every dish was presented with intention, and she took the time to walk us through ingredients , local farm sourced education and preparation in a way that made the meal feel curated and special. You can tell she genuinely cares about the guest experience--it shows in every interaction. After dinner, we visited their second location to explore their private dining options. There, we met Pierre, who matched the same level of service and hospitality. He went out of his way to not only show us the space, but also recommend local after-dinner spots that could enhance the overall experience for our bridal party. That level of thoughtfulness and big-picture thinking is rare. Bottom line: this team understands that they're not just serving food--they're creating experiences. If you're looking for a venue that delivers on service, communication, and unforgettable dining, this is it.

The bean dip was so salty and garlicky that it was inedible for me. The ragu had decent flavor, but again was overly salty, and the pasta itself was very dense.

Another disappointment was the added credit card fee. I understand that some people may not mind this, but with the number of extra fees diners are already facing, it's frustrating and discouraging. The pricing also felt high for what was offered--pasta dishes start at $22 without protein, and adding protein begins at $9. For that price point, I expect more value and balance. Overall, I left feeling underwhelmed and found the experience overpriced for the quality.
