We heard good things about this restaurant but our dinner experience wasn’t as expected. Our table was ready 20mins late, which is ok as we waited at the bar. However, the bartenders gave zero consideration to our party. We had to ask for a drinks menu. Nobody took our order after 15mins until we asked for our orders to be taken. Then our group had to head over our table. Service wasn’t at the level of such a restaurant. Everything was long, we received our plates about 40 mins after our appetizers. When the plates came, our appetizers plates were still on the table along with our empty cocktail drinks. Our food was very salty especially the sauces. Cocktails and wine was really good tho. The restaurant was not more than 60% full so I’m not sure If they were understaffed and they got overwhelmed but I’m not sure we will give another shot to this place.

I have been going to The Vintage Press for about ten years. The reason I keep going back is because of the food, the service, and the atmosphere. I’ve enjoyed everything I have ordered there. I was just there this week and ordered the pistachio crusted salmon, yummy. Had a new Waitress, she was outstanding.

Excellent restaurant and food, but our waitress forgot to bring us the brunch appetizers. Someone else brought our food and when I asked about our bread and fruit plates she promptly brought them, sliding over our breakfast. Everyone else around us had them shortly after being seated. Our waitress only stopped by after we had our meal to drop off the bill. She was pleasant and I was hoping to impress my husband for Father’s Day. He was happy but I was not, since I splurged on this restaurant.
