First Time Ordering from Vintage - Absolutely Amazing! As…read moresomeone who regularly caters from different restaurants, I might just be the catering queen--and let me tell you, Vintage did not disappoint! We ordered a variety of dishes and every single one was outstanding. The salad with peppers and chickpeas was fresh and flavorful. The meatballs were soft, humongous, and packed with taste. The eggplant parm? Easily the thickest I've ever had--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and somehow held its shape beautifully when cut. The cheese ravioli were perfectly cooked with a tomato sauce that was rich and just the right amount of tangy. The grilled chicken had a great flavor, and all of the pastas were tender and cooked to perfection. Vintage truly impressed us with quality and flavor. I'll definitely be ordering again!

Classic vibe, average experience!!!!…read more I dined at Vintage Italian Restaurant and found the experience to be fairly ordinary. The atmosphere has a traditional Italian feel, which is nice, but the food didn't fully match the setting. Some dishes were enjoyable, while others lacked flavor and depth. Service was courteous, though a bit slow at times, and the pacing of the meal felt uneven. Portions were acceptable, but for the price, I expected more consistency. Overall, it's an okay option if you're nearby, but there are better Italian restaurants that offer stronger flavors and better value!!

The waiter is very knowledgeable about all of the daily specials and has so many stories about the history of the restaurant. The owner also came out to personally ask us about our meal. Food: - fried calamari- crispy and well seasoned - roasted whole artichoke - fun appetizer to split with a large group. Could have less breading - rigatoni bolognese- huge portion, perfectly al dente pasta with a heavy ladle of bolognese. One of my favorite bolognese!

Bread was super fresh served with a wonderful seasoned olive oil. Service was professional, polite and attentive. Entrees took a long while to come out of the kitchen but was worth the wait. Only complaint is about the "private parking lot." Indeed there is one, but it has just 11 spots. We arrived at 12:30; the lot was full. If you're planning to try this establishment perhaps go off-peak, or be prepared to park on Chestnut Street (2 hour max) or on a nearby side street.

It is hard nowadays to find such welcoming service in a first visit. The hospitality of the staff and owner was so warming and heart filling that I can't wait to come back with my parents. My husband and I enjoyed our dishes which were rich and full of flavor. The convenience of the parking out back made it super easy to get to. We also took a tiramisu home to try! This might just become our go to spot monthly.

The driver came with an sandwich that was The Italian. Well I fondant was able to dig in later in the day. The sandwich was fantastic.

The owner was friendly as soon as we walked in and told us it would be about 8 minutes for the pizza- super fast! I would be surprised if he even crossed the minute mark before it was in the oven. Great conversation with the owner while we waited, and learned he had a spot near Asbury Park before moving here and opening this location. They do some cool things like "2 foot slices" (for those days you only want a slice lol). Countless specialty pies if you are in the mood for unique offerings. A large cheese pie is less than what you would pay at a chain- that's a huge win win- support local! After getting our hot pizza, my wife and I knew 2 bites in that we would be coming back. Great flavor on the sauce and quality cheese. They cook their pies half in the pan and half on the stone and the crust is almost airy with just the right amount of crunch at the end. We loved talking to Joe about his fav spots in NJ and NY- and he is a pretty humble owner that gives flowers to the spots that he thinks are doing it right. Will definitely be back! Pro tip: Don't be embarrassed when Joe asks if you need a box for leftovers and you realize there are no leftovers!

We've been trying to find authentic Italian in the area and still have had no luck. When we walked…read morein and they were speaking in Italian, we thought that this would finally be the right place. Unfortunately, it was far from it. (And before anyone judges, yes I am Italian and lived for a very long time in Italy...) The carbonara was not even close to authentic carbonara. True Italian carbonara is egg yolks, Parmesan, pepper and guanciale... NO cream. It was definitely disappointing for us, so we will continue on our hunt for true Italian cuisine that hasn't been modified / Americanized. Although the food didn't live up to our expectations, the service was great and it was lovely being able to speak in Italian with others.. but again, I wish the actually food was kept to the original recipes.
