    An excellent Thanksgiving experience. Our server Gabrielle and everyone that worked with our table of seven was excellent. The food was delicious and the ambience was great. It is a beautiful dining room and being upstairs we were out of the hustle and bustle which was good for the older folks at our table. Thanks for. Making this a memorable Thanksgiving

    The food was amazing and our server, Amer, was outstanding! As steakhouses go this was definitely one of the better ones we’ve enjoyed. Portion sizes for appetizers was great for sharing. We had several including the crispy shrimp, braised pork belly, calamari, chicken fried lobster, and meatballs. All were really yummy - the meatballs were probably the best I’ve ever had. Although Amer told us the salads were individually portioned, the Caesar salad was huge (plenty to share) and the beet salad could easily serve 2 or 3. Our steaks and my pork chops were cooked perfectly. Steak 48 will definitely be in the dining out rotation going forward.

    The blood orange margarita was delicious. We also had barria tacos made with slow cooked lamb. Shrimp tacos, chicken enchiladas and a carne asada burrito. All the food was fresh, well seasoned and delicious. We started with quac and chips, I definitely recommend them. The vibe was fun and the service was spot on. Try it for a quick lunch or a yummy Mexican dinner.

    Solo diner here. I had a wonderful experience, with little but significant surprises here and there in terms of courtesies. The staff was outstandingly detailed, knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating to my every need. The restaurant is very cozy, adequate for a date, a celebration or a solo diner. The food was exceptional, and it did not miss in any regard; I was impressed and fascinated. I highly recommend anyone who truly appreciates good food to eat at Vetri.
