Excellent food and service. So far everything I have tried on the menu has been excellent.

Excellent food and generous portions. Very expansive menu and gluten free choices. Great service by our waiter David.

My family and I had a fantastic dining experience at The Vineyards Trattoria. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxed night out. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and everything we ordered came out fresh and full of flavor. You can really tell there's care put into both the food and the presentation. The menu has a great balance of classic Italian favorites and a few unique touches that make it stand out. Overall, this is one of those places that consistently delivers a great experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for excellent Italian food in the Apollo Beach area. Five stars all the way. read more

I have visited numerous times over the years and have continued to get the Trietto Ala Vodka and enjoy it each and every time. One thing that consistently happens here is that they rush you. We ordered cocktails and she immediately wanted to take our food order. I asked if our food would come before the cocktails because we didn't want that and she assured us it wouldn't. Within 5 minutes she brought garlic knots and salads and our drinks hadn't arrived, so I wasn't happy. Next time I won't order food until after my cocktail arrives. Food was good as usual. read more

Had a nice dinner with friends. Nice menu and good service. The space is big and tables are spread apart. I like their plate of mini Arancini. Makes it easy to share. I had a taste for their spaghetti and meat sauce which was so big I'll get another meal. My wife had the Flounder Lemoncello which was terrific and big enough for another meal. read more

So I went here with my family to celebrate my dad's birthday. Very classy restaurant. The staff was professional and alert. Our server checked in now and then to see if we needed more drinks. Dinner came fairly quick after the appetizers. I decided to go with Spaghetti Modo Mio with meatballs. I honestly didn't know what to expect but needless to say, I was far from disappointed. The sauce was bursting with flavor which made every bite absolutely delicious. I probably ate it faster than I should've but I couldn't help it. I'm sure Ill be back at some point. read more

I'll start by saying the food was amazing!!! I could have just ate the bread and salad, both so good. The sangria was one of the best I ever had. I had the Shrimp Christina, (had to). It was so good. I was pleased the lightness of the lemon in the entree. It was so fresh. My husband had the eggplant entree. He loved his too. Unfortunately I don't remember the waitress's name. She was excellent too. She was very attentive. Again another restaurant I can't wait to return to. read more

Always have a good time when we come here. The food varies in quality from mid to excellent (i.e. the same dish will be better on some nights than others) but the service is always extremely pleasant and relaxing. read more

Yesterday, I had a luncheon event at the Vineyards, and it was a nice experience. The service was great and the food good. I can't believe that the place is so close by me and this was only my second time there. I'll definitely be back for dinner. read more

Great visit to The Vineyards last night! We wanted to find a cozy local Italian place, and this wasn't too far from the Riverview area! Everything was great. We didn't have to wait but 10 minutes for a table, although they were busy on a Friday night so I would suggest reservations for larger parties! Prices were reasonable. We split a bottle of wine, had an app and 2 entrees for $100. I had the chef special which was a penne, vodka sauce, with a large ball of fresh cheese, meatballs, and sausage. We started with appetizers the fried calamari, which was great! Also, we had the Trietto pasta which as it sounds, had 3 types of pasta. So yummy all around! Service was upbeat and friendly and everything went very well. I highly recommend to come to the vineyards to try out a nice local Italian spot in Apollo Beach area! read more

I would give this place a 5, but it took about 10 minutes to be greeted when we came in the restaurant with a reservation. Other than that, it was great! The inside reminds me of a mom and pop Italian restaurant. White table cloths and cute decor. The food was great, many gluten free options. I got a gluten free pizza and it came with an entire burrata on top! read more

Great food, service & atmosphere. Everything seems to be made from scratch, extensive menu.

Great Italian food, quiet and restful ambience, surprisingly reasonable prices. Plenty of parking.

Exellnt food. Outstanding service. Christian is amazing makes you feel welcome everytime.

Great place to have a meal! The chicken parm and lobster ravioli were exceptional, but everything was really good! Eternity was both our hostess and server as we were there at a slower time, and she did a great job...service and food were both 10/10 read more

The ambience is that of a fine dining establishment. The food taste is the same. Food comes out very hot. The flavor was beyond good flavorful with every single bite. After eating for 30 minutes, our food was still hot. The Shrimp Cristina was cooked to perfection. The shrimp was juicy and the lemon caper sauce was just right. The Alfredo was creamy. The portion size is huge. If you can eat all this food in one setting...I don't know if that's scary or very impressive. We literally could've had leftovers from The kids portion. Highly recommended. read more

We ordered lasagna for Super Bowl Sunday, it was noodle ams sauce, little cheese little meat. Very cheaply made at a expensive price.

Hands down the best Italian restaurant around! The Trietto Alla Vodka is sooooo good. My husband was especially happy with his lasagna. The waitress was very attentive as well. I also like the fact that the tables are far enough apart so you can have a conversation read more

Decent food, service and atmosphere. Auctioned off food when we were served, a major disappointment and turnoff. read more

An excellent place for great Italian food! Be sure to make a reservation as it's very popular!

Some of the Pasta is great. I am writing a review about Tiramisu. $9 for this thing? It looks like someone ate 2/3rds of the desert. read more

The Vineyards Trattoria - $9 Tiramisu if you want to call it that. This is garbage. - Italian Near Me - Apollo Beach, Florida

Possibility the oddest place I have eaten. We went Valentine's Day and great food! Everything we had was awesome. I had the three pastas in vodka sauce and the wife the eggplant pharm . Music is 1970s but awesome Guy could sing. It is in an odd mall and needs some updating. That's the downside but go and i think you will like it. read more

The pasta I had was absolutely delicious and the service was outstanding. Very friendly people in a cozy atmosphere. I will be back for sure

Food was great. server was happy to discuss the menu and brought the food out in a timely Manner. All dishes were as discussed and explained and were delicious read more

Will return We came for lunch. It's empty and we chose the last booth. At first there was only one young lady serving, who's very pleasant and efficient, and very pretty - hope this last adjective isn't going to get me in trouble with Yelp and anyone else. Looking at the booth in front of us, we decided no appetizers. We've 3 main courses Chicken piccata Eggplant Parmesan Veal Parmesan The spaghetti is al dent and all are pretty delicious. .., and huge portion: the reason is bec they're off the dinner menu when we thought we ordered off the lunch menu (so many menus ...) Maybe the staff should confirm it at time of ordering, to avoid any confusion. We were going to pay but they re-ran the bill. I think they put dinner menu out during the lunch time, is just to give dinners more choice. We ended up with a few doggie bags - I took their bread too - they are warm and delicious, and probably will be threw away. Btw, I've been talking about spoons (dessert mostly) - their pasta spoon is HUGE, has to be the biggest I've seen in a restaurant so far. Oh well, what do I know Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and a happy Mother's Day 2024 to moms. read more

Went to The Vineyards Trattoria for dinner on a Saturday evening. Not sure I'll return and here's why! We arrived with a reservation and approached the hostess stand. They were lovely and escorted us to a table. Our server Luca approached, introduced himself and honestly he couldn't have been any sweeter or knowledgeable!! We proceeded to order. For starters we were given a salad for two to share. It wasn't anything special and was ok, but it was free and came with dinner. Luca brought out some garlic rolls. This was probably the first time in my life I passed on a garlic roll after one bite!! They were extremely dry and needed much more oil & garlic. For appetizer my husband and i shared an eggplant rollatini. It was good but I've had better elsewhere. In my opinion too much sauce & cheese to taste the eggplant! For dinner we both ordered the Veal Saltimbocca which is described as the following: SCALLOPPINE SALTIMBOCCA Veal scallopine with smoked prosciutto, topped with sauteed baby spinach and fresh mozzarella cheese in a light Marsala wine sauce served with linguine... The prosciutto on BOTH of our dinners was inedible! It was like eating rubber. I'm not sure why and I've never experienced this. I've ordered this particular dish in many Italian restaurants over the years. It's a favorite of mine, and this one was completely disappointing!! The spinach was a miss as well. There was hardly any in the dish. The dish was swimming in sauce. The pasta should've been in a separate dish with the sauce. There is a huge parking lot so parking is easy here. I'm trying to be honest in my review! This restaurant has many great reviews but for me it totally missed the mark. The fact that I couldn't even chew part of my food leaves me no choice. For this reason I won't be returning. If I could rate just the staff, I would give them 5 stars! Luca was outstanding! The hostess were all pleasant! read more

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night. Good thing we made reservations. Place was busy. We were greeted by our waiter who was a very nice young man named Luca. He answered several questions we had about the menu. He then brought garlic rolls and a bottle of Pellegrino we asked for. There is a full bar menu available We started out with the eggplant rollatini, which was very good For entrees we both had the veal saltimbocca. Aside from the prosciutto being a little tough, the veal dish tasted very good We were too full for desert, but it did look good .. There is plenty of parking right out front. read more

Great food and service. All prepared in house. Wine list available. We take all our out of town guests.

Service, food and prices 10/10!!!!!!!!! I'm combining 2 visits because they were less than a week apart but consistently good and service consistently great! The ambiance gives one of a NY family owned restaurant! We love it! There was such a variety of food we tried and loved it all. Make a reservation for big parties but you should be ok with limited wait times throughout the week. We went on a Wednesday and Thursday and it didn't feel super busy. Servers gave a family environment and that made all the difference read more

Amazing food, service and ambiente. Exquisita comida, los meseros atentos y serviciales.

First time there. Excellent service and delicious food! Good selection of food. Big portions and reasonably priced for what you get. Will definitely go back read more
