VINNY’S EURO AMERICAN CUISINE
We did a full review of Vinny’s a few issues’ back and nothing has changed since. It is still an amazing dining experience. Chef Vincent and his wife Sarah run a lovely, intimate, dining establishment that emphasizes European inspired menu items prepared with fresh organic and locally sourced ingredients. Choose their elegant dining room or the bar area to enjoy your meal. We love the bar floor tiled with pennies and the ceiling design using a multitude of corks. The staff is well versed and extremely knowledgeable. Choose a few small plates or go all out with one of their carefully prepared entrees.
