Great service! Great Pizza!…read moreWe live in Maryland, but we come across the King George bridge in order to enjoy Venny's which is tucked away nice and neat and a small shopping. Initially, we were just looking for Pizza in the area and there was another spot right around the corner, but for some reason we didn't go to that one. We found Vinny's and have been coming ever since and this was about five years ago when we first started coming. We love Vinny's. The pizza is delicious and the shrimp Alfredo was wonderful. We also had the wings and I would strongly suggest that if you haven't had them try them. Anyway, I'll meet you there.

I LIVE for this dish. It's the perfect balance of sweet and savory in a creamy white sauce. I honestly wish they served it year-around. For an appetizer we had the Trio Bruschetta, which was amazing. What I love the most is that you're able to get the best of sweet (ricotta and honey) and savory (pesto) in one appetizer. Service at Orofino is always top-notch. On the night we visited, our server was training a colleague, and it was all super seamless. The ambiance was perfect, though the back room can get a little loud given the acoustics and lack of sound absorbing panels.

I've been wanting to try this place for a long time and finally got my chance. I got there around…read more2:00. It wasn't very busy, maybe two tables. Since I was alone, I just sat at the bar. It's a small restaurant in a shopping center very nicely decorated. My server Elmer greeted me right away with water and a menu. He explained that everything is homemade, even the desserts. The menu isn't huge, but it has a good variety across the board. I looked at the specials first l, I wish my wife had been with me because the salad special sounded great and we usually split one. The entrée specials also sounded really good. I was already thinking to myself I'd probably be back if this meal was solid. I usually order chicken parm when I go out for Italian, but I wanted to switch it up, so I went with the lasagna. Elmer told me I'd enjoy it and said the noodles and sauce were very good. Someone brought out bread with a garlic and oil mix. The bread was excellent crunchy outside, soft inside. The garlic and oil was good, but I'm more of a butter guy. I like a lot of butter on my bread, especially bread like that. When the lasagna came out, it looked amazing. The person who brought it asked if I wanted Parmesan cheese. I said no thanks I don't like changing the flavor unless I taste it first and feel like it needs it. First bite.....Excellent. The sauce had a lot of flavor, the noodles were tender, and there were a lot of layers had to be six or seven. Not like some places where you get three or four and mostly cheese. I ate the whole thing and used the bread to clean the plate. Elmer and the other servers kept checking in to see if I needed anything. I like seeing that kind of teamwork where everyone helps out, not just their own tables. Makes for a better experience and you're never waiting around if you need something. When I finished, Elmer asked if I wanted some of the "apple cobber." Funny thing -- when I first looked at the dessert menu, I noticed that typo and wondered if that was really the name. I asked him about it and he said it was a mistake and hadn't even noticed. I was surprised no one caught it before. I asked for the cobbler to go, but he actually recommended the tiramisu instead, so I took his suggestion. Later that evening I tried it and it was superb. Even my wife, who doesn't like coffee, liked the bite I gave her. While we were talking, Elmer gave me a sample of their espresso martini. I'm not big on cold coffee drinks, but it was actually pretty good. Definitely something I'd order there. Overall, one of the best Italian meals and service I've had and I'll definitely be back. I just wish it was closer to home if they opened up in Prince Frederick in Calvert County, I think they'd do great. Right now all we really have is Ledos Pizza

It's consistently tasty and well-seasoned, though a few times there were a few scales left on the skin. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting. The vegetable side dishes tasted very fresh and complemented the meal nicely. And surprisingly, the mushroom risotto was actually really good, coming from someone who isn't usually a fan of mushrooms. Our son is a fan of noodles and enjoys the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. We've had the food delivered or we picked it up.

This is my first time here as we recently moved to the area. I'm from New York City originally so…read moreI'm a little bit of a pizza snob. My Son had the chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich. I had the nachos and a margarita. And my mom had a personal pizza. My mom said that her pizza tasted as if it had been frozen and then reheated. We also ordered the jalapeño poppers. Cheyenne was our server and she was fantastic. I thought she did an amazing job at serving as she was by herself, so I felt really bad for her. I feel bad for her because she was working the bar taking orders serving and cashing people out by herself. At least she was by herself for the first half of my visit there. From what I can tell the restaurant fairly clean and I'm sure it gets very busy. I did not visit the bathroom so I don't know what that was like. They do have a game room which I thought was pretty cool to have something to do as well as food and drink drinks Coming from New York City and living in NOVA for the last 7 years to this area I do feel that the price point was a little high. And to be honest, although the food, was not the worst I've ever had it wasn't the best and at that price point I do expect it to be a lot better.

My group of 30 came here for a…read morespecial event and the restaurant was able to accommodate us, taking up one side of the restaurant. They have what looks to be a rotating menu. Make sure to read the full description of each menu item as the short title doesn't do it justice. I ordered a braised short rib with risotto dish, which was amazing! But the short title was just "risotto", which I would have quickly dismissed without my friend mentioning the short rib in the description. We started with the calamari an appetizer. It had a nice crispy breading. They had deep fried jalapeños with it, which paired nicely with the calamari. Never had it like this before. The dish came out with a very generous portion of risotto and a large short rib on top. The rib was so tender that it fell right off the bone and you didn't need a knife to cut it up. So flavorful! The risotto was well flavored and have a nice creaminess to it. I could have shared this plate as it was very rich and filling. Service was admittedly slow, but I attribute that to our large group on a Wednesday evening.

In all the years I've been going I've only had the Vinny's Calzone or the Bellybuster Stromboli. They're both great and get 5 stars every time.

The pasta and alfredo were good after adding pepper and a little salt. But the sausage was a big disappointment. It had no taste. The dish was a miss. On a positive note, the complimentary starter bread is delicious.

I ordered the lasagna with Bolognese sauce, and it arrived like a perfectly executed maneuver from the finest starship. The layers were rich and harmonious, each bite bursting with flavor that transported my taste buds to another galaxy. The Bolognese sauce was a glorious fusion of robust meat and savory herbs, creating a star-studded performance that left me craving more.
