DEFINITELY CHECK IT OUT!!! We were greeted and seated out in the patio dining area with no wait. The evening was very pleasant and the patio area made for a comfortable ambiance. Our Server Aleigha arrived with a friendly smile, took out drink order and made the experience over the top. She was friendly, very knowledgeable of the menu and genuinely a pleasure. We started off with the house made salsa and guacamole. The charred tomato salsa is crazy good. The depth of flavor was unmatched by any I've ever eaten. The guacamole was vibrant and very flavorful. For our entree we had the carne asada steak tacos, the chopped grilled chicken salad and the chipotle chicken rigatoni. Most definitely going to be regular guests going forward. read more

The Vig is such a vibe as far as the outdoor seating area, lighting, music, all the ambiance but in my experience the food is always super mid no matter which location. We got the fries as an app this time around and the goat cheese dipping sauce was super runny - it barely stayed on the fry. I also got the steak salad which is a more expensive menu item and it had basically no toppings! Like why is this $30 but is missing the majority of the ingredients that give it flavor? Also the drinks are fine but nothing that will knock your socks off. For a relatively decent menu on paper, I wish the food tasted better. I will say that our server was awesome! And again they have the cutest restaurants to meet friends and hang out at across the valley, just don't expect great food read more

Such a great spot to grab a bite to eat and enjoy some time chatting! The atmosphere on the patio is great if the weather permits, and the interior is cozy as well. I personally enjoy the patio! I ordered chicken enchiladas and they were phenomenal! I love the freshness of the sauce and the pickled onions set it off! The chicken was tender and juicy and the flour tortillas were like a warm hug! This place rarely disappoints make sure to check it out I highly recommend! read more

I would not recommend this place. I waited over an hour for a table and was never seated. During that time, the staff were dismissive and didn't acknowledge me or my partner at all. To make matters worse, other guests who arrived after us were seated right away. The experience felt unfair and incredibly frustrating, and at times it even felt like we were being treated differently. Overall, it was a very negative experience. My partner and I simply wanted to enjoy a nice dinner, but we ended up leaving disappointed and unwelcome. read more

The place is gorgeous, don't get me wrong. The service was quite friendly though ours was a little preoccupied. Our food was very good except the Brussels were salted like they came from the bottom of a nut container, meaning wayyyy too much. I'll go again and try something else but as my first experience I hoped for a bit better. read more

Gretchen! This review is for Gretchen and her phenomenal service! Best server experience I've ever had! She was warm, knowledgeable, gave AMAZING recommendations, and made sure our night flowed smoothly! I hadn't been to this location yet, but I am no stranger to the Vig chain of restaurants. I've spent many hours in my young adult life, enjoying hangs at various Vig locations, including my wedding reception almost 10 years ago. Deep, core memories have been had at the Vigs! I love that there's now one even closer to me! All the food was good! Those nachos were to die for! But the drinks! Thanks to Gretchen's expertise we were all introduced to orange with cinnamon to go along with the tequila and I will be doing this from now on. If you stop in and you have the luxury of Gretchen as your server, ask about her signature drink, you'll be happy you did. read more

An excellent experience. My wife and I went on Saturday afternoon and took seats at the bar. Christian and Gretchen helped us out-polite, professional and utterly welcoming. We each had the fabulous Vig specialty Margarita and chips and salsa with guacamole. I ordered the carne asada tacos which were great and my wife had a perfect cheeseburger. I had beer and she had wine and we had a great time. We'll be back! read more

I've been wanting to check out the Vig for a while now and finally made it there on Saturday for some apps and wine. I was going to try to go there the weekend before but it was raining pretty hard and I wasn't sure if they actually had an inside -- a friend had told me it was mainly an outdoor patio. Well I am happy to report they do have a small inside area for dining and a bar as well (mental note for the future!!) Since it was a gorgeous November day, we opted for the patio -- we were there during brunch but we just wanted apps and wine. Steve was our waiter and was very attentive and helpful! We wanted fries but couldn't decide between the regular or the sweet potato fries and he suggested half and half! Great idea -- plus we got the guac and chips and some delightful Rose. The patio is a total vibe and the brunch menu looked small but mighty! I even confirmed for a future visit that their buttermilk pancakes come with real maple syrup -- so I will definitely be back for that. They also had a really nice looking wine selection which is good to note as well! I will definitely be returning to try both dinner and their brunch!! read more

I'm a lover of The Vig - this was my first time at this location. It is maybe my favorite in terms of the design and layout, where the outside is absolutely beautiful, but it's still covered above so you're immune to some of the weather still. Yet we were seated inside sad! It was freezing. And it wasn't cold outside ... but it was freezing inside. We were at a booth so we could sit side by side which we love. My boyfriend got the chicken and mac and cheese and we were both shocked at how large it was! He loved it. I love how you can make substitutions - I got a burger but with a veggie burger on a gluten free bun, with guacamole and chipotle aioli, caramelized onions, candied jalepenos, and cheese. Very yummy! The gf bun isn't my absolute favorite, it's slightly crumbly and dry, but it's not half bad and I love the option of it. Lots of flavors in there, and filling! I had it with sweet potato fries and it came with a BBQ sauce that was so good! Good service, we hung out for a few hours read more

Ooooowee this happy hour deal was fire!! As you can see, we were quite hungry LOL. This location made for a great date outing. The adult happy meal was fire, first of all. Great espresso martini, the espresso was perfectly balanced! Classic delectable Caesar salad, and perfectly paired with addicting truffle fries!! My second favorite was the sliders, sooo flavorful!! Nachos were hella loaded and the pretzels sauces were paired great with it! Also got a dirty Tito's martini, it was cool! Overall service was great when we first arrived, not busy at all, but I think we might've gotten overlooked as we chose to sit in the corner booth big table and more guests came and when we were ready to go, it took a second to find our server for the check! Not too bad tho since we were having a chill day, and she was personable, but just makes us a tad hesitant on coming back when it's busier. Good deals though!! read more

We had a great time at The Vig--fantastic drinks, solid food, and stellar service from Tiana, who was both our server and bartender. She was friendly, attentive, and made some excellent cocktails. We started out on the patio, which is a nice spot, but between the humidity and the misters not doing much, we ended up moving inside. Definitely the right move. DRINKS Daily Mule (mezcal, pomegranate liqueur, vanilla) - Super refreshing, well balanced, and lightly sweet. I loved it, but my husband (a traditional mule loyalist) wasn't a fan. Coug Cup (lemon vodka, elderflower, strawberry purée, prosecco) - Kind of like a floral strawberry lemonade. Pleasant, but a little underwhelming overall. Pineapple Sunrise (tequila, pineapple, hibiscus, lime) - Light and slightly sweet. The hibiscus really comes through. Comes with a Tajin rim, but I preferred it without. Blackberry Smash (bourbon, blackberry, lemon, mint) - As someone raised in Tennessee, this one felt like home. Smooth, fruity, and perfect for a southern summer night. This is the grown-up punch at the cookout. Hands down the best drink of the night. I rarely order a second of the same drink because I like to try new ones, but I got a second Blackberry Smash after our meal. FOOD Noble Pretzel - Slightly over baked and had a mild burnt taste to the exterior, but still good. Queso was tasty, but pretty plain. The house mustard was a whole experience--sharp, PUNGENT, slightly sweet. It has a serious kick, in the best way. Vig Burger - Smelled incredible, and I had high hopes, but it didn't quite live up to the aroma. It was juicy, seasoned and cooked well, but the guacamole made it messy, and the flavors didn't fully come together for me. The fries started off fine but got overly salty as we got further into them. Overall, the drinks, service, and ambiance were fantastic. Tiana took great care of us and clearly knows her way around a cocktail shaker. The food was a little underwhelming, but I'll definitely be back to try their brunch--especially if the drinks are anything like what we had at dinner. read more

I really enjoyed my time at The Vig. The patio is beautiful and the misters cool it down so much that it's comfortable sitting outside even in September. The food is great and the burrata is a must have! read more

Grabbed weekend brunch with a party size of 6 this summer and were seated outside in the shaded, misted back patio. I don't remember why, as there was ample seating inside). What brought us to the Vig initially was their bottomless brunch special at $25/person - you must commit to 1 drink: margarita, mimosa, modelo, refills are 1 cent/drink, 2 hour limit, and must accompany food.My sister and I ordered the mimosa and margarita respectively, with the truffle fries $12 and chorizo burrito $14 as our food choices. I didn't get to try her mimosa, but it was served as a glass of champagne with a separate small (like a little bit larger than a shot glass) pitcher of orange juice. Disappointingly, despite the mimosas being bottomless, my sister was only allowed 2 oj's. Had she known this (either being told by our waitress at the beginning or it being mentioned on the menu), she might've rationed her oj better instead of dumping each full portion into her champagne. Ultimately, this limits the "bottomless" nature of the brunch deal. On a more positive note, my margarita was sweet and strong, although it tasted overall watered down compared to other margaritas I've had. The truffle fries were delicious and came in a large portion. The chorizo burrito was insanely greasy, which limited how much we could enjoy it, even though we love chorizo. About the service, our waitress mentioned that she was the only server for the whole restaurant at the time. There ere probably 4 other parties in the whole restaurant, inside and outside. We found her personality to be bit abrasive and unfriendly. Ultimately, I would NOT come back for the bottomless brunch experience, but I WOULD come back to try their happy hour specials, only if invited by friends or if extremely convenient. read more

First time at the Vig for a late evening event with group of 12. Place was open with large patio. Menu was small but diverse and they do it well. I had the poblano chicken enchiladas, they were tasty, burgers and salads were selected by others. No complaints , service was good! read more

The Vig is a restaurant that does not have locations near my home. So, when I'm near one I am excited to go! Today's experience lived up to all of my expectations. My husband ordered the Hot Honey chicken sandwich. It was so crispy I could hear it from across the table. He enjoyed it tremendously. Now my Roasted Turkey on a GF bun with Sweet Potato fries. This was like Thanksgiving on a bun. Seriously, it was absolutely delicious. I am not a fan of Slaw, so I requested it on the side. Sure enough, I was glad it wasn't on my sandwich. But that's just a personal preference. read more

Always great service and very nice food. Has a nice vibe as well. Plan on visiting again.

I have always loved this place and I want to give it the benefit of the doubt but I'm so dissatisfied with tonight's dinner. To be fair, we ordered delivery, but we live close and it did not take long at all. We ordered 3 burgers. Easy right? There was something wrong or items missing with all three burgers. Not to mention, the burgers were so well done they were burnt and hard to eat (we ordered medium). Unfortunately I was unable to finish dinner tonight and it makes me sad for the vig. read more

The Vig is the perfect spot for your next happy hour. This restaurant is tucked away in Arcadia lite, it has small inside seating and quite large patio. If you come for their happy hour, drinks and appetizers are reasonably priced. After happy hour it's a mixed bag for pricing in relation to the quality of food. I tried their genuine burger and it was good, but the truffle fries were the best part of my meal for sure. The servers were attentive and quick to offer suggestions. read more

Just made it to happy hour cutoff time before 6 pm. Service was excellent although our patio table was not very stable on the pavers. BBQ sliders were tasty, I wonder if you toasted the buns would they be even better? Nachos were good but seemed a bit soggy and wondering if they sat under a heat lamp too long in a pre made state. I know they can take a bit of time and they were pretty busy. We always enjoy the VIG. They are attentive without being overbearing and we love the patio on a comfortable evening. read more

My favorite. Since 2020 many restaurants don't take pride in the food they prepare, but the vig is always top quality.

Had a fun and delicious early dinner yesterday here with friends I had not seen in over 25 years! We walked in to a dark and inviting place with indoor and outdoor seating. It was 110 degrees out so it was a cool respite! We started with chips, guac, and a tasty salsa. My friend and I had roasted pork soft tacos from the happy hour menu. The pork was tender and flavorful. They came with a bit of pickled onion, queso fresco, shredded lettuce, a tiny bit of tomato and were garnished with micro size cilantro. Delish! My other friend had the steak frites. He asked for medium well and it was cooked perfectly. The steak must have been very good my friend ate every bit. The "frites" were good but not as crispy as he had hoped but it did not deter him from enjoying every one. All three of us had giant hot fudge sundaes meant to share but not us! wow at least a pint of vanilla gelato perfect amount of fudge and garnished with peanuts. We were there at Happy Hour and there are quite a few fun drinks specialties. It is a casual place and I recommend! read more

I was a frequent flyer at Ladera. Loved the indoor/outdoor atmosphere and creative offerings. Surprisingly, I've never been to a Vig before. I came for dinner. Ordered 4 chicken tacos. To be honest, nothing extraordinary. The tacos were definitely on the more conservative side (could have eaten 4 more). My group of 5 thought their food was OK as well. Pricing is a little on the expensive side. Beer menu was nice, ordered a wheat. If I'd come back I'd likely order something else. read more
