We returned to Asheville for the annual drop-the-kids-at-camp trip and retunred to Vinnies, this time with friends. Did not disappoint. We had a large group (7) drop in on a Saturday night w/o reservations with the place packed and the staff didn't even blink. A short wait at the bar where we enjoyed local beer and/or drinks, watching a great... More

My wife and I go to Vinnie's once a month or so. We like the friendly staff, the hot tasty food, and the location. Everyone in Vinnie's seems happy to be there. We know that's not possible..someone will be having a bad day- BUT they don't let you know this. From pizza to sea food this is the place to... More

This place serves some serious Italian food. Great choices and prices, many of the dishes are large enough to share. And the garlic knots alone are enough for me to return for another great meal! Whether a local or out of towner, you can't go wrong here!

We love Vinnie's because they are so friendly and welcoming. The food is always delicious and the prices are very reasonable... The family-style options are great and kids-eat-free Sundays are awesome. Our daughter loves the free tattoos and always tells her friends about eating at Vinnie's.

It was a very nice experience with excellent food and firendly staff. The Margherita pizza was freashly made with the right crust and not overflowing of condiment. The pasta not overcooked and good size. Do not forget to ask for the desserts made daily on the premisis. We will go back soon if we can find a table, it is... More

Real Italian's call it gravy, not sauce, and Vinnie's has gravy! We have been frequent diners and always, always have a fantastic meal and fabulous time. Everyone always welcomes you, the waiters are fun and always happy to be there, they accommodate special meal requests without any problem, cozy atmosphere, always a must to take our out of town company...everything...

I love to go to Vinnie's! My experience is always pleasant, the food is always delicious, the people are always kind and helpful. If I could eat pasta, I would go more often! Any gluten free pasta just is not the same. Vinnie's come through with seafood dishes and salads that make me forget about spaghetti and meatballs! My friends... More
