    The brie is amazing. Views fabulous. Cannot go wrong with any of their salads for lunch. Music should be turned down for lunch crowd. Ciara is a fabulous server!!! Ask for her whenever I am able to~~

    As always, the setting was stunning. The drinks and scallop appetizer were wonderful. From there on, the service was really slow. Appetizer dinner and dessert for two people took two hours and 15 minutes. Unfortunately, both of our dinners of short ribs and Seabass were very dry. It was certainly not worth the very steep price.

    I’ve been dining at Vintana’s for years and don’t recall ever being disappointed. Honestly, I can’t say that about any other restaurant (I dine out on average 2-3 times a week).

    The Crab Benedict needed more Crab and less spinach.

    Came to Vintana a month prior and was excellent. Came back again and brought friends and was very disappointed. Ordered right away and they didn't have the brand of Tequila for our cocktails. Food arrived and hour and twenty minutes after ordering. Chicken was not cooked throughout. Friends Seabass was cold and flaky. Not the same experience we had a month ago. Beautiful restaurant though.

    Immediately waited for our reservation although we were on time... then waited at our table to be served. Come to think of it, it was an evening of waiting for less than adequate overpriced food. The whole evening was a disappointment... we couldn't wait to get out of there. The risotto AND sea bass just were no good! Shame, it was a pretty room but everything else was grossly SUB-PAR. Do yourself a favor, choose somewhere else!

    Our steak had excessive heat from the peppercorn sauce and overwhelmed it. The polenta, short ribs and vegetables were dry. The butter cake was also excessively sweet and did not have anything to cut it, like the butter cake at Nick’s does. The service was excellent but we were disappointed by the food.
