Ezequiel was helpful, easy to work with, and organized. We were able to drop off menus and place cards the day prior which were set up with the table so that all of our group could come in together and see them! This small accommodating detail made the day even more seamless and intentional for our guests. We hadn't been to Vinny's prior to the wedding weekend, so we were a bit anxious about the unknown food and service. In the end, both were great! We had the fried calamari, bruschetta, fried ravioli, and seafood stuffed mushrooms for appetizers. We had the lasagna, chicken parm, and pepper steak for our main course, and an assortment for treats for dessert. The portions were hearty, and everyone commented on how amazed they were at all the food that just came coming out! Our favorite was the chicken parm and tiramisu, but all of the food was good - my Italian mother in law approved! The next time we're in Galena, we will definitely be coming by for some chicken parm and tiramisu!

Quaint and lowly lit that brings a romantic, Sicilian vibe. The staff are attentive and helpful. Appetizer to start us off with the Tuna tartar-absolutely delicious. Our main courses were the grilled salmon and mushroom ravioli. First of all, we were graced with the Chef bring out our entrees. The grilled salmon was pan seared so when you took a bite the salmon was moist a cooked perfectly but then you got a little crunch. The mushroom ravioli was the unexpected hidden gem on the menu. WE NEED THE RECIPE!! It was so good...not too much of anything, flawlessly seasoned, the sauce was just the right consistency, and the ravioli...oh my goodness side note: I ordered French fries because I love fries, and although very good, they paled in comparison. Overall, this will be on our list every time we visit Galena! We can't wait to come back and try something different. We'll probably get the tuna tartar and the mushroom ravioli for appetizers. 10/5 stars!!
