Service was fantastic and very accommodating. Food was delicious. We dined on house soup house salad Orrechette Barese and Romana Pizza. Out of 10 it rates a 12. Planning our next trip already. read more

The staff and the entire environment is excellent. The food is well prepared and the portions are just right.

Everything is always nice and delicious. The portions are a little small for the price. That's my only complaint.

If I could leave 20 stars, I would. As a first generation italian with a mother born and raised in Venice, Italy, I can say this humbled us. We have been accepting of below-par italian food for quite some time since it is so difficult to find delicious and authentic homemade italian food and pasta without making it yourself at home. I am at the very least, completely FLABBERGHASTED by the gnocchi that my mom ordered. It was like pillows in your mouth and if you know homemade gnocchi, you would know immediately by the shape that this was without a doubt homemade. I ordered fettuccine bolognese and it was also unbelievable. Every single thing we ordered was to die for. The service was impressive and cordial. The environment was shocking to us as well, we had no idea we were walking into a literal mansion. A historic place that was lived in. We will be coming back. If I could live in their kitchen, I would. read more

I've been to Vincenzo's new location about three times with my family. My parents raved up Vincenzo's original Covina location and were so excited to have them start up again in San Dimas. Upon entering the restaurant on my first visit with my parents, the hostess was a bit rude and she quickly asked if we had reservations without greeting us. My mom answered kindly that we did and the hostess claimed that we were late with a huge attitude. I was shocked with her treatment and when the hostess doublechecked her reservation book, she noticed that read the wrong name and realized we were not late. She didn't even apologize for claiming we were late. So that was the first strike. Once we were seated in the dining room, we noticed that it wasn't even busy so I don't even know why she was upset about us being "late" in the first place when it was completely empty. Our server was very kind and knew all the specials for the day and we definitely appreciated his service after experiencing the wack hostess. The only issue was that it took so long for my family of 5 to get our food. We probably spent almost 2 1/2 to 3 hours in the restaurant and it wasn't even busy. That was strike two. I won't lie, the food is very good, but the service just isn't it. Especially with the hostess who has such a bad attitude. I've come back a few times with my family since they really enjoy the food, but we also had to deal with the rude hostess again and the long wait for the food which isn't very pleasing. I just moved back home from grad school and I guess my family continued to go to Vincenzo's while I was gone, but they just complained again that the hostess was so rude to them that they officially decided to never return. And that's strike 3. From other reviews, it seems that the hostess is the owner's mom. For everyone's sake, please come get your mother!!! She is bringing down your business with the poor customer service. Believe it or not, you can have amazing food, but if your staff lacks basic customer service skills and empathy, you will start to lose customers and eventually your business! Giving two stars because the food is actually not bad. read more

We tend to dine out every weekend. This restaurant was likely the worst experience we have had in five years. Service was slower than slow. I asked for their truffle pizza. The server said we should have called as they were not serving it as truffles were too expensive. Why would I call? I ordered a Ceasar salad. Came without dressing. They also charged me $11.95 though the menu price was $10.95. The server neglected to tell us the specials, one of which I would have had. Had the lasagna. Less than half the size of other restaurants. Gee, for the hundred dollars I dropped I could have gone to In n' Out had five times and had a better meal. Will never return it read more

I can't believe I haven't left a review here yet. Not only is this probably the best Italian food in SoCal, but they are AMAZING at large parties! We hold seminars here for our doctors and every time the food comes out on time, hot, delicious and the service is impeccable! Anthony and Kathy are superb and it's always wonderful when we come here! read more

Visited twice because the first time was disappointing. First, if the kitchen can't cook pasta without overcooking it - don't call yourselves Italian. Second, if your sauces are bland and/or you use canned ingredients, which I suspect, then don't all yourselves Italian. Third, don't call your flat bread with some cheese on it Roman, because it isn't. read more

So nice to have good Italian food. Brough my own wine. Reasonable cork fee. Service was great.

Always a pleasant experience to dine at Vincenzo's. Kathleen and Anthony have a wonderful place here, with excellent food. They make you feel so at home and treat you like family. read more

If you have a chance to have dinner at this place, do it! I loved this place. If I lived closer I would go multiple times. First off this restaurant is in a very large what used to be a very old house. The entry way is so beautiful, seems like you are going into an old mansion or something. This place is only open for a few hours a night. It seems like it's going to be expensive but it's actually not and the pasta is amazing. I think they make the pasta homemade. They give you homemade focaccia bread when you sit down, with a homemade pesto spread. I had the shrimp gnocchi and my family members had the chicken fettuccine special. The wait staff is very polite and friendly. Again the prices don't compare to the experience. This place would be great for a first date, or any date, family gathering, anything really. Can't wait to go again. read more

We found this hidden little gem while camping at nearby Bonelli RV resort. As a party of 6 we booked a short Lyft ride and it was amazing. Kathy and her staff were so welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious as were the desserts. Great wine selection too. We visit the area once or twice a year as we only live about 45 minutes away. Pricing was very fair too, approximately $100 per couple which included three bottles of wine. This will be our new favorite place when we stay here! If the wonderful dinner were not enough, the museum tour upstairs was the icing on the cake! Margie from the historical society gave us a great tour of the Walker home and museum and she was so friendly and knowledgeable! The ladies in the gift shop were so nice and we all found some very nice souvenir items. We loved the entire experience! read more

Good food and friendly wait staff. Beautiful location in the historic Walker House. We had the Risotto al Fungi and the Tagliolini Maremonte, both of which were absolutely delicious! Nice mushroom flavor complemented with shrimp and scallop. Will definitely be back to try other dishes. read more

The food was amazing. I got the Orrechiette Barese and it was delicious! The service was wonderful. My children had the pizza and they loved it. read more

Yelp needs to start allowing a zero or even negative star rating... Yesterday I was dinning here and the service and food were basic. However, upon walking OUTSIDE TO MY CAR, I observed an employee walk outside to HARASS ANOTHER GUEST ABOUT A TIP! I have never witnessed this! It was unbelievable, unprofessional, and overall pathetic of this staff to do this. I will never come here again and recommend no one does either! read more

Really bad service and the owner was extremely rude the food was not good and I was not satisfied at all.

Can't say enough wonderful things about this place. Vincenzo's Terrazza is situated in a historical building in downtown San Dimas, easy to find and parking is easy peasy. They have a wonderful wine list and a delicious Italian hummus that they pair with homemade focaccia. Our party enjoyed the margarita pizza,several pasta, the delicious branzino with sun-dried tomatoes, pine nuts , and fresh spinach. In a delicious white wine sauce. I urge you to try this restaurant, its family run, our server Matthew was very attentive and answered our questions with confidence. . Perfectly affordable for such delicious, fresh and homemade food. read more

I've lived in San Dimas for 9 years and pass by The Walker House all the time yet never been inside! This Victorian style home was built in the 1800s so you can imagine the history that lies there. Stepping inside, you feel like you are back in that era. The place is clean and the restaurant has a main dining room. I noticed a couple of private rooms as well. The upstairs is roped off. Walker House does give creepy vibes but it adds to its charm so I'm here for it! We came in at 5pm when they open for dinner. My son and I were greeted by the owner and our server was Julian. I loved how friendly, courteous and attentive Julian was. His personality really stands out and I recommend having him as your waiter. Now for the food... Julian came out with some fresh focaccia bread paired with this garlicky hummus spread. It was very tasty. My son ordered their Margherita pizza. The pizza reminded me of my trip to Italy. I ordered the Caesar salad (they made it the right way with anchovies) and Spaghetti alla Checca. I loved both dishes. Everything was delicious and flavorful. When I have Italian food, I want it to be very garlicky and not salty. The chef nailed that for me. There were 3 other parties in the main dining hall and I felt the service was great. Vincenzo's Terrazza is definitely a San Dimas gem. read more

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner a couple weekends ago. The ambiance is lovely, as it is in an old house. Our party of 6 had our own little dining room. Bread - interesting. The bread itself was fine, but the garlic spread they give you is very odd. It isn't butter. It seems kind of like...chickpeas? Not a fan, but at least it was unique, I suppose. Pizza - we shared a cheese pizza as a sort of appetizer. It was good. Nothing special. 3 of the people at our table got sort sort of pasta with sausage and they all said it was very salty. One of which puts salt on everything, so for her to say it was too salty is saying something. I got linguine with clams. It was good, but again, nothing special. Another member of our party got the soup and complained of it being salty, as well as too thick. It was more like she was eating a very hearty chili than a soup. Our last party member had some sort of mixed seafood pasta and said it was good. Overall, it was a nice experience for the ambiance, but the food was nothing to remember. read more

We've been to this restaurant twice and had mixed experiences. Starting with the ambience, the restaurant is inside a beautiful historic home. The first time we went, it was quiet and a very knowledgeable lady gave great service, helpful recommendations and a tour of the home. The fried Calamari was delicious and the sauce on the Chicken Marsala was outstanding. The second, and probably the last time we went there, the service was poor and every entree was overcooked. The chicken was dry, the fried Calamari was too chewy, the lasagna was tough, and the pasta dish was lacking flavor. The meat entrees are expensive and do NOT include soup or salad, despite being asked which side we wanted by the server. Summary: Great atmosphere but underwhelming food and service, especially given the high prices. With so many great options in the area, this place needs to do better. read more

We had a great lunch great service. Would definitely come back. Great service too. Lots of wines to chose from. read more

The linguini maremonte at the Vincenzo's Terrazza was excellent. Finished off with a tiramisu for dessert.

We had a lovely meal at Vincenzo's Terrazza! Good food, excellent service and we were gifted a tiramisu for our anniversary. Interesting historical ambiance on a sunny evening.

I don't know how this place is still in business with such rude customer service. My aunt was visiting from out of town and had made reservations for 4 people. It had been years since I've been here but I was game to give it another go. For context, the restaurant was almost completely empty. When we showed up, we had an additional family member join us. So when the hostess (owner? Blonde woman) came to greet us, my aunt asked if it would be okay if we added an extra person to the party. The lady let out a very audible exasperated SIGH but didn't say anything else. My aunt, confused, said, "Oh, I'm sorry... but will that be a problem?" Then the lady, who appeared very aggravated, said "Well yeah! Now I have to put you at a different table, or find a way to fit in a chair, or, I don't know..." Then the phone rang and the lady picked it up and answered and started talking, ignoring us as we all stood there. We were all so confused and, not accustomed to this level of rudeness, didn't really know what to do. But we ended up just leaving and having a delightful meal elsewhere. read more

We were looking for Italian in the San Dimas area and decided to try this spot located in a lovely historic building. The food was pretty good and the service was perfect, but I was really thrown by the decor and lack of attention to detail here. It is enough to be a distraction from what would otherwise have been an elegant meal. I felt like I was in my grandmother's house that was badly in need of an update for at least 40 years. We had spinach salad and ravioli, gnocchi scampi and salmon. The pastas were incredibly hot, too hot to eat. All on point or close, just not worthy of 5 stars or for us, even a trip back. read more

I love this place. It's an Italian & seafood restaurant inside the Walker house in San Dimas, which is an old mansion that has been restored so I would say the ambience is classy, yet cozy. As far as food goes, my family loves everything they try but I can only review the sole because that's all I ever order. I think about ordering some of the other entrees every time I come here but I love sole fish and the sauce they cook it in is similar to a piccata sauce and I just have to have it every time I come. My grandson favors the stuffed pork chop and one of my sons says the octopus is really good and my other son usually goes with the special of the day, usually seafood or steak with pasta. Of course my 10-year-old granddaughter only ever wants spaghetti with or without meatballs. The service is about the same as most busy restaurants as far as speed goes but they are very friendly and aim to please. When we go on a night that's not very busy, the wait staff is very happy to carry on a conversation with their customers or let you hand them your camera to take a picture of your party. The owner also will walk around sometimes and talk to the customers at their table. I look forward to my next visit and can't imagine anyone not liking this place. read more

Average Italian food in a good location of 626 area! Not something I'd crave but it's def worth a try! It's located right next to thumbling so it's often overlooked. SERVICE: They were very accommodating to large parties and it's easy to make a reservation online via their website. The workers were all really friendly and ensured all our questions about the menu was answered. FOOD: I would def recommend the short rib ravioli! The calamari's and fried mozzarella was also good choices for appetizers. The calamari was great portion but the fried mozzarella seemed too expensive for the amount. We also get free bread in the beginning straight from the oven! They do charge .45 cents for extra through. The rest of the pastas were just plain and not flavorful. read more

I had the lobster ravioli in a lemon cream sauce and it was delicious! Can't wait to come back and try some more goodies here!

Would you pay $20 a piece for this? I did. My excuse is that I ordered for to go and didn't realize how pathetic the portions were until I got back to my office to eat my meager snack. Everyone was hungry later. If want larger portions, grab a Stouffers from Walmart across the street for the same flavor, but larger size. Ps. Place was pretty much empty as someone referenced in another review. Pss. Save the stale crab by bread for dipping into the excessive sauce. Held me over for another hour before grabbing a protein bar from my drawer. read more
