Where do you even begin to describe our experience at Vento? The entire restaurant is a vibe!
We were here on Friday, July 3rd, and everything about the evening exceeded our expectations.
We had a party of five, and our waitress (who was actually one of the bartenders) was absolutely amazing. She fit right in with our group, joked around with us, laughed along, and had such a great sense of humor. Huge kudos to her for making our experience even more memorable!
I started with the Caesar salad, and it was hands down the best Caesar salad I've ever had. It was absolutely to die for! My fiancé ordered the steamed clams and devoured every last bite and every last drop.
For our entrées, I ordered the Bolognese. It was good and flavorful, although it wasn't my personal favorite. My fiancé had the baked chicken Alfredo and really enjoyed his meal.
The coolest part of the evening was learning about the barrels displayed throughout the restaurant. Some are empty, while others have guests' names on them. We had to ask about them, and it turns out you can purchase your own barrel, personalize it with a name, and choose the type of liquor you'd like to age in it. You can share your barrel with friends and family, and anyone on your approved list can enjoy it. Each barrel yields 12 bottles, and ownership comes with some awesome perks, including exclusive tastings of different spirits. We had such a great time learning about the process and sampling a few drinks!
We'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend Vento if you're in the area. Great food, fantastic service, and a unique experience that made for an unforgettable night! read more
