It's quite a lot of food for the family package, which is right under $35 before taxes and fees. You get a half-tray of salad, a pasta, and an entree. We chose the Caesar salad, pasta à la vodka, and vodka chicken parm. The salad was fresh, sprinkled with generous amount of Parmesan cheese powder and some croutons. I liked that the dressing came in a tub on the side. The vodka sauce on the pasta and chicken parm was creamy. I did wish there was a little more salt or spice in it to keep it from being too monotonous, but we forgot to ask for pepper flakes. The chicken parm came with large slabs of chicken cutlet fried and smothered in sauce and cheese. The meal is definitely big enough to feed a family of four, maybe even five, comfortably. My family even had good amount of leftovers. I would love to try the rest of the menu and have a dine in experience at VICO.

Subject: Disappointing Experience at Vespa - Saturday, August 8th…read moreDear Vespa Management Team, I am writing to share my deep disappointment regarding my dinner at Vespa Italian Kitchen & Bar on Saturday, August 8th. I frequently travel 20 miles to dine in Farmingdale specifically for a premium culinary experience, but this visit ensures that Vespa is no longer a destination restaurant for me. For our table, I ordered two orders of your signature "Clams Vespa" appetizer. According to your menu, this dish features baked little neck or top neck clams. Instead, we were served tiny, cockle-sized clams that were severely overcooked. They were so badly burnt that it was entirely impossible to extract any clam meat from the shells because it was stuck completely. When I raised this issue with our waitress, she brought back a single replacement plate. While this second plate of tiny clams was prepared correctly and tasted delicious because they weren't burnt, it only resolved half of the issue. When I brought up the bill discrepancy to my server, she stated she would hand it to the manager. However, after waiting 15 minutes with no resolution, I was forced to get up, approach the manager myself, and state that I wanted to leave. Only then did the manager expedite the bill correction and take one order of clams off my tab. Between dealing with unannounced substitutions, poor kitchen quality control, and a frustratingly slow service recovery process, the evening was highly disappointing. Combined with an aggressive parking citation issued on Main Street during our meal, the entire 40-mile round trip felt like a complete waste of time and money. I expected much higher quality control and efficiency from a restaurant of your reputation. I hope you address these kitchen execution and front-of-house communication issues so that other long-distance diners are not subjected to the same experience.

All of the food was absolutely delicious, and many of our guests went back for seconds. Every staff member was extremely helpful, kind, and attentive to everyone throughout the entire event. Honestly, this was one of the best experiences I've ever had with a catered/serviced event. They were accommodating in so many ways, from helping us unload our decorations in the pouring rain to making a separate dish for my sister who had a dietary issue. They also prepared pizza and chicken tenders for my little niece and nephew, which they absolutely loved! Some of our guests were running a little late because of the weather, and since our event was four hours long, the staff was flexible and even recommended leaving the appetizers out a little longer so those guests would still have a chance to enjoy them. Little things like that really made us feel taken care of. Many of my guests commented on how beautiful the atmosphere of the space was, and for some, the elevator was an especially convenient feature for getting to the event room. I would 100% have another event here. I was so, so happy with how everything turned out, and what meant the most was that it wasn't just my experience -- every single one of my guests had a wonderful time and enjoyed themselves as well! Food served at the event: * Zucchini, cherry tomato & feta fritters * Rigatoni à la vodka * Chicken Milanese bruschetta * Romaine Caesar salad * Garlic rosemary roast beef * Bomboloni with Nutella * Provided fruit & cheese platter * Hummus, bruschetta & tzatziki with flatbreads * Prosciutto crostini * Yogurt parfait * French toast * Bacon * Home fries Overall, we had such a wonderful experience and I'm so grateful to the entire staff, Sofia and Olivia for helping make my baby shower so special!

After seeing all the hype on social media, we decided to visit Italiano to try their famous…read morebread-bowl pastas. When we walked in, it felt more like a busy pizzeria with a dining area than the trendy spot we were expecting. The place was packed, and we ended up waiting about 30 minutes for a table. Once seated, we noticed right away that the menu didn't match what we had seen online. In the videos, every pasta dish came with burrata, but here it was an extra charge. The bread bowl itself was also a $7 add-on, which pushed the $25 pasta dishes to nearly $40 each -- a price that simply doesn't make sense for what you get. Staff was friendly, but the busboys seemed completely untrained, and service overall was slow. We did receive our minestrone soup quickly, but it was just okay. The soup's kidney beans and chickpeas were noticeably undercooked. When the pasta arrived, the disappointment continued. The burrata, which we paid extra for, was cold and hard rather than creamy. Even the waitress seemed surprised when we pointed it out. We also noticed that the regular pasta dishes (served in normal bowls) were much larger portions than the bread-bowl pastas -- despite the bread bowls costing more. At the end of the meal, the reality became clear: the bread-bowl trend is more gimmick than substance. With two pasta dishes and one soup totaling around $100, the value just isn't there. Unfortunately, we won't be returning. Don't be fooled by what you see on social media -- the experience simply doesn't live up to the hype.

Our waiter Kumar was excellent! On point with a great sense of humor. I thanked him for being so patient with us while we made up our minds on what to order and he said that's what he is. A WAIT er! Hahaha! Only Harold & I ordered apps. I got the steak tartare and Harold ordered the Kobe beef meatball which he shared with Pat. I tasted the meatball, it was so good. Huge but tender. But my steak tartare was the favorite dish of the night. I like the fact that the beef was finely cubed and the seasoning was different from others that I have had but quite delicious. The shredded truffle was a nice touch. The Stracciatella cheese was more abundant than expected but not overpowering. We all ordered different entrées, chicken Parm, a Seabass that was on special, the salmon dish and I got the veal chop All of us loved our dishes. I didn't taste the other entrées so I can't comment on them, but they all looked amazing but my Veal Chop was definitely worth coming back for! I love a good pounded veal chop, and the marsala sauce was delicious without being cloyingly sweet, which sometimes a marsala sauce can be. Also my Prickly Pear Margarita was delicious!

I recently hosted a family luncheon here and wanted to share a few billing details that future…read moreguests may want to be aware of. The food and service were good, but the way the check was calculated had a few inconsistencies. I should have taken the time to review it carefully before paying it. We ordered the prix fixe menu, and one guest substituted a higher priced entree for the included entrée. Instead of charging the difference between the two items, the restaurant charged both the full prix fixe meal and the full cost of the substitution as an additional entrée. The automatic 20% gratuity was also calculated on the taxes and the event/convenience fee (another questionable fee), which isn't standard and increased the total more than expected. The receipt advertised a "cash discount," but the total didn't change when paying cash. None of this ruined the event, but the math on the bill wasn't very transparent. Just something to keep in mind if you're dining with a large group.
