    We ate in the lounge and our server Crystal was wonderful. She is so nice and engaging, made things very enjoyable. My appetizer was the Involti eggplant and it was so good. My wife had a Greek salad and really liked it. She ordered the Carni pizza, it was delicious. I had the Halibut puttanesca and requested the sweet corn risotto which they fixed for me. It was fabulous and I would definitely get it again The gentleman playing music in the lounge was very good and engaged the crowd, we had some good laughs.

    Vic & Ola's is our favorite high end Italian restaurant. It has some wonderful Italian Cuisine that is hard to find, like Osso Bucco. Try the Artichoke side dish or their Burrata and tomatoes. They also have a wonderful wine list with a large selection of Italian and other European wines, something that is not too common in the California wine influenced Scottsdale area. We have sat indoors and most recently on the outdoor patio which is lovely and quite comfortable with all the high end heat lamps. We will back soon!

    My husband and I visited on a Friday night and had 5:30pm reservations, as we were going to a show afterwards. Check in was quick and we were shown to a table on the patio. About half the tables were already full. I'm glad we didn't just choose to go for happy hour, as there were no seats to be had at the bar. The waiter was quick and knowledgeable about the menu. We knew we wanted the grilled octopus, which we mentioned, but the waiter should have waited to put that in until after we had ordered drinks. So, we had no wine with the appetizer course. This was the only misstep of the evening. Bolognese and tagliatelle with shrimp were both very good. Plentiful portions; decent price for the area. Waiter instantly moved a heater to our area when I mentioned I was chilly. Patio was very lively by the time we left. We'll definitely be back.
