    Cacio e Pepe
    Tracy D.

    They have a three course lunch selection for $33. I highly recommend it there! The portion sizes are generous. I love the ambience: very soothing and relaxing. There is smooth jazz playing lightly in the background. The decor is old country Italian mixed contemporary lines. The patio is wonderful. There is a lot of shade and mister fans so you're not getting drenched by them. We started with the bruschetta appetizer, you choose three of the four options. We had the 1) fig and prosciutto, 2) traditional tomato, and 3) tuna. All of them were great. The tuna bruschetta is very light. The tomato was very good in comparison to other traditional bruschetta I've had. The prosciutto and fig was wonderfully sweet. Their tomato soup perfectly thick topped with housemaid croutons, and basil. For entree, we had the Cacio de Pepe (vegetarian), Pasta Alla Norma (vegetarian), and the All of them were very good.

    My wine glass!

    Awaiting our dinner to arrive! Been here several times & can't wait! A beautiful environment!

    Spaghetti di oliva
    Ben H.

    I ordered food from Vic & Olas to-go. In hindsight, I should have ate at the bar as I was solo. It is a beautiful restaurant with indoor/outdoor seating. I used pictures on Yelp to assist with my order. I ordered the Spaghetti di Oliva, which I thought underwhelmed. The cheese was not melted, like in the pictures, and the pasta wasn't al dente. Perhaps the experience would have been better dining in and ordering a non pasta dish.

    Pollo saltimbocca
    Bridget S.

    Lovely as always, service is always friendly. Definitely a busy spot so plan accordingly. We started with the tomatoes and burrata and it was delicious, the tomatoes were so fresh. We usually go with the Sal's Polpettes which are also very good, but we felt like switching it up this time. For my main, I kept it a little lighter with the pollo saltimbocca. The chicken was moist and flavorful and the sauce and mushrooms paired perfectly. Typically I go for the sausage pasta rigatoni, which is also delectable.

    Tiramisu
    Mikaeli B.

    This place came highly recommended by coworkers of mine and honestly I see why. I'm kind of surprised I hadn't heard of this place before. It's very traditional Italian, white table cloth kind of vibe. Very cute though. Very busy too. More on the casual side I would say but you can dress it up or down. The patio is very nice. For food we started with the mussels and heirloom tomato and buratta salad. The salad wasn't anything amazing flavor wise just nice and fresh. The mussels were HUGE. Significantly more flavor in this dish. A lot of work but that's what you get with mussels. For dinner we had the lasagna and halibut. Both of these dishes were outstanding. The halibut was delicious, I see why people come specifically for this one. The lemon butter caper sauce was phenomenal. It was velvety and citrusy and the caper added a nice depth of flavor. The fish was flaky and tender. The lasagna was very generous. Beef and pork and in the bolognese. It was homestyle comfort food through and through. Very classic flavors. For dessert we had the tiramisu. It was simply delicious. Not overly sweet, good coffee flavor, and creamy mascarpone. All in all we spent 220$ before tip and that included 2 drinks each. You easily spend less. I think it's fairly priced. We had a lot of food. Our server was sweet and genuine. Very helpful with recommendations. Great experience. We already have a reservation to come back!

    All Saints
    Alexandra B.

    Parents' friends made a reservation for our group and thankfully warned us to dress warm in advance since we would be on the patio. It was busy for a Tuesday night so we were grateful they made a reservation. The patio heaters have adjustable output we cranked up and the server offered blankets which was helpful! The ambiance is very quaint and the smell of the food immediately captivates. I ordered the All Saints cocktail with Vodka instead of the Gin and it was divine! The little saint charm was a fun keepsake to remind us of the evening. Drinks took a while but with the entire party having cocktails it was somewhat expected. For dinner my dad and I both ordered the Sausage Pasta Rigatoni and I highly recommend. The sausage leaned spicy with the mix of peppers but was well balanced. All of the entrees looked and smelled excellent. I absolutely plan to return! P.S. the story of Vic & Ola inspiring Chef Sheila is heartwarming and worth a read!

    Mocktail
    Tracy B.

    Loved Vic & Ola's for upscale southern Italian food in DC ranch. We sat on the partially covered patio for an early dinner in mid April. We found the service to be quick and efficient. The seating arrangements seem a bit close to other parties, so don't expect quiet ambiance. Loved that there are mocktail options offered, with NA spirits as well and server described them all! We shared a tri colore salad to start which the kitchen split for us, always appreciated. Bread and butter is also offered. Then Tuscan salmon with pasta which was super rich but delicious, and he had the pasta de Isabel with shrimp and Calabrian peppers! The tiramisu was quite large and served in individual glass - definitely plenty for 2 to share. Best tiramisu we've ever had!!!

    Beet Salad
    Melissa S.

    We live in the area but we always forget about this little gem because it's kind of tucked away on DC Ranch Market Street. We dined here on Friday evening with Zev as our server. He went above and beyond letting me taste a couple of wines and with great recommendations for our dinner selections. We shared the beet salad. It was a generous portion and they kindly split it for us which is always appreciated. My husband had the lasagna and I had the gluten free cacio de Pepe. We both enjoyed our meals. The ambience is fabulous. We were on the covered outdoor patio near the bar. We will not forget about this place again. There are so many options for my gluten allergy so I can't wait to try more menu items.

    I've been to Vic & Ola's several time. Everything has been a great experience. The ambiance is very cute. I prefer the outdoor seating as there's so much outdoor heaters to keep you warm during the colder months. Service has always been amazing, no complaints. The food is always good. We ordered a couple pasta dishes to share, burrata plate for appetizer and the cake for dessert with vanilla gelato. The espresso martinis are super good and you know there's real espresso shots in there. Highly recommend anything on the menu!

    Paolanzana, grilled eggplant with roasted tomatoes and mozzarella. Very large portion. Easily feeds 4.
    Pat C.

    Visiting from Florida, my lavish Scottsdale friends took me to Vic & Ola's for dinner. What a spectacular Italian restaurant! Our server was Megan and a more delightful girl could not be found. She was friendly, attractive and very attentive. She gave me great recommendations and she knew the menu well. I started with the Paolanzana appetizer. It had nicely sliced grilled eggplant with roasted tomatoes and mozzarella, basil, and cured olives. It was a large, fantastic appetizer that could easily feed 4 people. Next I ordered the Pasta Alla Norma. Honestly, it was the best pasta dish I ever had. Bell Flower pasta, with eggplant, garlic and basil. Red chili flakes give it some nice heat. For $21, the portion was very large. The red sauce was rich. Finally, I ordered Tuscan Salmon. It was baked with breadcrumbs and served on dill asparagus parpadelli pasta, with artichokes, pine nuts, roasted garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, Calabrian chilies and a smooth white cream sauce. The salmon was moist and flaky and the pasta was cooked perfectly. This was another fantastic dish. I'll return for sure. Since the portions are large, I only need to order a salad and a pasta dish. I over ordered this time, but I have nice leftovers.

    Amaretto sour
    Allison J.

    This was my first time here and the food is delicious! We had the appetizer and the burrata salad was amazing. The cheese was good and the arugula was so fresh. It had walnuts and dried figs. Also heirloom tomatoes. The cheese bread was good and like a bit spicy. I had an amaretto sour. The thing with amaretto sours is that not every bartender makes it the same. I'd say the amaretto sour is one of the best I've had. The only one that would be slightly better is one I had at north Italia. Moving to the food. The salmon tortellini was so good. I was not expecting the to be these huge tortellinis. They are stuffed with lots of salmon and in a vodka sauce. The pasta it was wrapped in was so good and cooked al dente. Definitely hand made. I loved the sauce. I even asked for bread so soak up the sauce. The sauce is homemade too and tasted amazing. The sauce was creamy and wasn't salty. I wish I had extra cheese on top. The tortellinis were on top of a spinach bed but the spinach was like really salty for some reason. We also had the halibut and the lasagna. The halibut was very good and flaky. The mashed potatoes were also good with that dish. The lasagna was like this huge portion with lots of meat. The desserts were good too. The butter cake was nice and warm and not dry. The gelato was creamy and had good flavor. The restaurant is more of an inside/outside type restaurant. The outside is definitely bigger than inside. They have blankets in case it's too cold. Couple things however. During our visit the table was not fully set. Me and another companion were missing dinner knives and only had a butter knife. And then one companion was missing an appetizer fork. One of the companions had two cracked tableware. One was the water glass and the other was a plate which I found rather eyebrow raising. After our appetizers they replaced our full silverware which was nice. We had the bread and butter but I'm not sure what the butter was. It was good though. Our waitress kinda just set it down and left. The drinks we ordered also took what I feel like was kind of a while. My amaretto sour and a beer that was ordered and sparkling water took over 15 mins to have on the table. I was considering perhaps ordering an after dinner cocktail but didn't want to in case it took 15 mins to get. I would definitely come back. The food is just amazing. The price isn't what I feel like would be "too expensive" for the quality of food you're getting. All of us left full! And happy with how good the food is. Great choice to spend our dinner.

    Go here if you are 50 or older and have no taste buds. The bar for this area is so low to be considered good. Tried this and Pescada, their sister restaurant both very mid. Prices too high for the quality. All of our food was lacking flavor or just tasted weird. Mussels, artichokes, osso buco (tough and puke taste), and lobster pasta. Service was alright, new gentleman did his best.

    Ask the Community - Vic & Ola's

    Do they do special reservations (rose petals, flowers, etc.)?

    They did a special set up for a birthday I had with my best friend,without me even asking so I imagine they must do special requests like you're talking about

    Is it noisy?

    Don't sit by the entrance. We were seated by the host and it was quite noisy.

    Do they have a corkage fee?

    Sorry. Don't know.

    Is the happy hour available at a table or do u have to sit at the bar? What time is happy hour?

    The bar has 3 tables available for use during HH.

    Are shorts and a dress shirt acceptable?

    So being a northerner (we don't need to wear shorts at every turn because it is not so hot!) I would say they should be very nice looking if done! However if one is sitting indoors with AC and they have pants available, why not wear those? It is a… 

    Dog friendly patio?

    No I have never seen anyone bring a dog To the patio but the Livingroom and All American in the same parking lot have dog friendly patios

    Is there a Happy Hour? If yes, what time?

    Hi Arlene, Happy hour is everyday in the bar from 3-6 pm.

    Is this place kid friendly?

    I would say no. Rather upscale dining.

    Amazing hidden gem! Penne vodka was perfect - no complaints. Serving size was good, not too spicy,…read morebut not too bland. Would order again. Sangria - I loved it. My friends thought it could have been more "refreshing" (seems more wine heavy but was still delicious to me!) Bread and garlic butter - A must order. So tasty. Ambiance is a little more upscale, but nothing too crazy. I would say perfect for a date night, nice family dinner etc.. Service was great, everyone very friendly.

    We dined at Pasta Brioni last weekend with friends. To be very honest, it was quite disappointing…read more It was a summer Saturday in Phoenix, and the restaurant wasn't very busy, yet we barely got seated and our waiter was rushing us to order. We weren't ready! I think he was disappointed that we were not going to build a big bar tab. Only 2 of us ordered from the bar list. Now to the food. We've eaten at this place many many times over the years. And returned because the food and service were excellent. However this time, our food was far from what we expected, and the waiter seemed like he wished he were anywhere else but there! The appetizer ordered was so haphazardly put on the plate, and was also not tasty. My husband's salmon was thin and dry. I don't think this place has seen any updating since it opened. Currently, it feels dank and dirty with no signs of welcoming any changes. It's always sad to see the neglect of management/investors in not protecting their stock in trade- their reputation and respect for their customers.

    My Italian friend recommended Uncle Sal's as an authentic Italian spot -- so I had to go on that…read morerecommendation and I definitely thought the food was good. I did go on a first date here and maybe not as romantic as I would have liked -- much more of a family vibe -- or in the bar area was all about sports. It wasn't too loud so that was good since we were doing a lot of talking, LOL. It was a Saturday night and my date had made a reservation but it looked like we could have easily gotten a table without one. There is a parking lot but couldn't tell if it was easy parking because we took an Uber since we were drinkiing. I started with an espresso martini and I would give it a 4/10 -- I think the espresso used was low quality because it wasn't my favorite. My date got a whiskey old fashioned and he liked it. Service was pretty good -- it was a busy Saturday night. I wanted to order a glass of wine with my meal but the server was gone for some time so my date had to flag her down. I ordered the halibut with crab on top and the server recommended a white wine to pair -- I thought it was an usual suggestion but went with it -- she didn't even suggest which white - so I went with a Sav Blanc and it was actually quite good -- I didn't catch the name. We started with some shrimp cocktail and that was pretty good, sauce was tasty. The halibut was actually quite good and cooked to perfection - the crab on top was really good too -- it came on a bed of linguini which was too much -- I didn't really eat that. My date had the filet special with a lobster sauce -- it looked really rich and the portion was huge! He couldn't even eat it all. Overall I enjoyed my meal, I was quite full when we left, LOL! I didn't catch how much the total cost was but I think it had to have been at least $200 -- so definitely some dough will be dropped! But for a special occasion it is worth it.

    Fiancée and i stopped in for dinner saturday night. We had the fried calamari (our go to italian…read moreappetizer) and shrimp- the marinara is incredible! For dinner, she got the carbonara and i got the pork chop marsala. Both were delicious but i have to say, i think the marsala sauce was the star of the evening! We were also given complimentary garlic bread. The chicken parm was calling my name as well, so def need to come back and give it a go. The staff were super friendly and service was excellent. The restaurant felt cozy and had good vibes. I recommend you check it out!
