We were rushed though our meal. Our waitress came up to us with boxes 15 minutes after bringing us our food and asked how many we needed - mind you, we were still actively eating. She took the cheese off the table to put away while we were mid meal. Important note: this was an hour and a half before they closed. We weren't lingering. Unfortunately, won't be recommending this place any more, especially because of the smoking in the kitchen. when we checked out, we mentioned that it wasn't as pleasant of an experience as normal, and were completely ignored as they just continued checking us out.

Margarita pizza was SO flavorful. The head chef stopped to tell us all that went into finding the PERFECT blend of flour for the crust.

The pizza alone will bring us back. The bread and desserts are all house made and excellent. No shortcuts have been taken and you can taste it. A beautiful atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff that care about your experience. Their sommelier has hand selected wines that are unavailable anywhere in our area.

The menu was a special graduation week menu. There was a lot of standard Italian restaurant fare, and brick oven pizzas. I ordered the brick oven lasagna, my daughter had the airline chicken and my wife ordered a salad. My lasagna came in a small iron skillet served on a serving board along with 2 grill toasted pieces of bread. It had plenty of meat and cheesy goodness, just like I like my lasagna! The airline chicken was char grilled with a lot of flavor. My daughter loved it, and I loved the bite I got to try. Overall, it was a very good Italian mea, great servicel at a very good price.

I'm new to the area, and have been making it a point to try local restaurants. While I'm…read moredisappointed immensely in the lack of Italian restaurants in the area, I was very pleased with my order from Vinny's. I had the eggplant parm dinner (which is how I personally gage every Italian restaurant I eat at), with a side salad with homemade ranch dressing. I love that it's not Ken's from a giant jar. Nothing beats house made. The eggplant parm was delicious, and the sauce had a nice flavor. I'm from a massive Italian town up north where you can throw a stone in any direction and hit an Italian restaurant or pizza joint, so I'm very particular. I also have a culinary degree, which makes me even pickier. I will absolutely be returning, and can't wait to try other items from the menu.

The crust had a nice chewiness with a…read moreslight crunch on the outside, and it tasted like house-made dough rather than a pre-made crust. I would order the pizza again. Unfortunately, the chicken Marsala was disappointing. The sauce was very thin and watery, with a large amount of liquid collecting in the bottom of the container instead of coating the pasta and chicken. The mushrooms had a texture and flavor that reminded me of canned mushrooms. While the dish lacked the consistency I typically expect from chicken Marsala, the sauce was still very rich in flavor and savory. Based on this experience, I'd recommend the pizza, but I would skip the Marsala. They gave an accurate estimate of wait time, prices were reasonable, and from what I saw the restaurant was clean. I would also like to acknowledge it was later in the night and they were going to be closing in the next hour, which might have caused a bit of a rush on the food, I'm not really sure.

She did a good job throughout. I got the chocolate cake and my mom got the strawberry cheesecake. Both were equally delicious!!! The portions were huge and the prices were pretty cheap. The Neighbors Place is a great family friendly restaurant. I was very impressed with their overall food and drink menu options. My only regret is not coming here sooner. Highly recommend!

I had a pizza before and wasn't the most impressed, but I was willing to give them another try. Craving a salad tonight I decided to order and I'm so glad I did! The large chef salad is huge and packed! Tons of meat and cheese, literally a whole hard-boiled egg, four slices of tomato, multiple slices of cucumbers, etc. There were also 2 large cups of ranch and the ranch was just as amazing! This quite possibly the best chef salad I've had in over 20 years. It really took me back! It's so big I can easily get 2 meals from it. I added a pic under the photos so be sure to check it out. The price was even quite affordable. The only thing I could possibly think would make this better was if they cooked their own bacon, but the bacon bits on the salad were all real and great quality. None of the cheap stuff or artificial bacon bits. I also ordered the cheese bread to have a little something extra with the salad. I was thinking it was going to be cheesy bread sticks maybe, or one of those oval shaped breads covered in cheese. This is actually much bigger and about the size of medium pizza. There is plenty of cheese on it and the olive oil and garlic really put this cheese bread on another level. The crust tastes like pizza crust and the flavor is incredible. I had a large cup of marinara and it is also really good. Everything was exceptional, including the temperature, time, and service. And it may sound odd but the utensils included were also great quality, very durable. I could easily cut up the veggies and meats without concern the utensils would snap. I will most certainly be regularly visting Vitales and ordering this same meal. It's so good I don't know how I could go and not get the same thing. I'm telling everyone I know. Run, don't walk and you can thank me later!
