    Great Service wonderful food fabulous flavors. Hats off to the chef! We'll be back! The next time we are in San Jose.

    What a cute little Italian restaurant I stumbled upon. I was dying for a place with the parking lot and they sure had one lol! The food was also fresh, hot, and really really good! I can't wait to go back when I visit again!

    Hidden but a nice surprise. The food is great. I had a chicken Parmesan dish. I'd come again!

    Shrimp Scampi
    Siyi T.

    We went to Vito's the day before Valentine's Day for celebration. Waiters were friendly and helped us seated quickly. We ordered Shrimp Scampi and Carbonara. The shrimps were huge and fresh. The scampi sauce was very creamy and delicious. The dish also came with creamy risotto and a generous portion of grilled vegetables. The carbonara portion was large and topped with a lot of bacons. It was simple, classic and tasty. After main courses, we ordered creme brûlée as dessert. The creme brûlée itself was sweet, but the strawberries and blueberries on the top balanced out the sweetness well. Overall we were quite satisfied with the food. There was plenty of street parking as well as a parking lot next to it. It was a cozy place to celebrate special occasions.

    Lasagna
    Rox R.

    Nice cozy restaurant. Interesting area near an industrial sj and the airport. Parking was easy on the street and also garage. I had the vodka allanpollo which was flavorful. Enjoyed it the next day too. Good portions. Had a red wine which was good as well. Our friends had linguine and rib eye. The way are it all happily. The lasagna was the big disappointment. I wouldn't ever order it again. Service was friendly. Misc is a little loud for conversation but it's not too bad. I'd scale the volume a little to add to the atmosphere of friends talking.

    Rigatoni Pasta Bolognese
    Marc S.

    Ordered the Rigatoni Pasta Bolognese and it was absolutely amazing perfectly prepared with a meat sauce and a ton of flavor. The portion was huge, definitely enough to fill you up. Also had the garlic bread, which was outstanding and the perfect combo with the pasta. Highly recommend!

    Location is hidden from Skyport road but they do have a huge sign from the street. You can't miss it. Upon walking in, I was greeted with a smile and asked if id like a bar area or a dining table. I opted to sit at the bar area since I was all by my lonesome. I started with Tito and soda with a splash of cranberry and the calamari. Calamari had good taste and not as crunchy as I like but the dressing was great. Between a pizza and a lasagna was the hardest decision I made for the day. I asked the waiter which one he would prefer.... and he said said "Both are good, but just depends on how hungry you are... the lasagna is heavy and the pizza is light." To which inreplied... "ohhh good point let me get the pizza with pepperoni and mushroom". Best decision for the day. I know i would have loved the lasagna... but I wanted something light.

    They just opened for dinner and the place was empty. I was greeted so very kindly and I saw they had one table filled with regulars that came in a little bit early. They all seemed so happy and kind. I asked them what drinks they have and asked them to come up with something creative and the drink they made me was delicious! I can't name it though. The food came out fast and was cooked to perfection. I was not disappointed at all. This place was a great find and I will definitely be going back if ever in that area again. It is more of a fancy place, super nice and romantic. There is also outside seating.

    Wow, can't believe I've been sleeping on Vito's Trattoria all these years! It wasn't until my friend, who has been staying at the nearby condos, arranged for us to have dinner there. We strolled into the restaurant around 7:30pm on a Wednesday. We didn't have reservations, but we had no problem finding a seat indoor or outdoor. While it looked fun and lively inside, we decided to sit outside since weather permitting. Overall service was excellent. Our food came out fast, and our server was just the best. He was the kind of person who seemed to really loved his job, so his attitude translated positively. I got the Catch of the Day, which was a Chilean Sea Bass with 2 prawns over risotto and asparagus. It was absolutely divine. Everything about the dish was executed to perfection. The sea bass was moist and flaky, and the prawns were plumb. Loved the lemony, buttery white sauce with capers over the risotto. This rich sauce brought everything together. I would certainly be back again to get this. I would honestly give the place a 5-star if it weren't for my friend's Frutti Di Mare that I tried. The linguini was nicely al dente and the sauce tasted really fresh, but the whole dish was bland to me. Maybe if they offered parmesan to spruce up the saltiness that would've helped with elevate the dish.

    Out-of-towners looking for Italian food. Vito's did not disappoint. Had calamari, pollo alla picatta & pollo Marsala. Everything was delicious. A bit pricey however the portions are very generous. Restaurant is small and cozy/casual. Staff is very friendly. Will definitely be back when in SJ again

    Vodka Alla Pollo was just the right size for lunch
    Randy D.

    Came in for a work lunch, was busy but were greeted right away and sat immediately. Host was very nice For a starter I got the Fried calamari, it was very good. Rings and tentacles and cooked perfectly. Hate when it gets rubbery but these were perfect. Lightly breaded and fried The meals come with a Side salad with an Italian balsamic type dressing. It was good and fresh For my main I got the Pasta pollo vodka. It was amazing. Pasta cooked perfectly, sauce was very tasty. Chicken cooked just right and plenty of it. Service was good, friendly and efficient, offered suggestions and advice Very nice lunch spot. Parking is free close by, which is huge downtown.
