Orrechiette Barese
Ronald E.

Ok nice again the service was on point. Our waiter was there to fill our glasses and needs when needed or desired. To start the meal we ordered the daily special arancini ball appetizer and my wife and friend got a house and caesar salad all of which were enjoyed. For the main course my wife and my buddies wife got the daily special Penne Pasta in Bolognese Sauce and ground sausage and LOVED it. My buddy got one of their pizzas and I got the eggplant parmesan both of which were outstanding. this restaurant remains a "keeper" and certainly is high on our "occasion" venues

Branzino entree
Anna H.

Came here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The Walker house is registered as a historical place so it was cool to dine inside. Make sure to make a reservation. They were short staffed so be patient and sip your wine! We ordered the branzino but I felt the sauce was a bit too strong. The pork medallions were great and the sauce there was delicious. Heard a lot of people order the calamari and it was delicious! They finally have a cocktail bar so remember to try their cocktails! Quaint and fancy atmosphere.

Cannolis, tiramisu, and coffee gelato
Maria B.

My family and I had a great lunch here today. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location inside the vintage Walker House is beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The family that owns and operates it are the nicest people and the food is fantastic. We all had the mozzarella fritti appetizer, eggplant parmigiana, orecchiette with sausage, and spaghetti with clams, tiramisu, coffee gelato, and cannolis; and loved everything. Sam Dimas is so lucky to have such a great Italian restaurant. The prices were fair and there is a huge parking lot in the back. Excellent service-Anthony is the best. Give it a try!

Came here for a company lunch and everything was spectacular. The food was amazing and service was excellent. We felt well taken care of and that is so greatly appreciated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had a decently sized team at this restaurant so it was very nice of them to seat us in a private room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, would come back here.

Original woodwork remains
Yvonne M.

So happy we finally made a visit for a birthday dinner and tour of the museum upstairs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Charming ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wonderful table service from Kathrine and lovely to have met the owner Kathy that served and came around to talk at the tables. Our party tried everyone else's dishes, so impressed with all the food flavors! Loved the dessert selections. Indulge in the Crema Catalana and Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake.

Calamari
Prescilla M.

Had my husband's birthday dinner at Vincenzo's Terrazza and it certainly did NOT disappoint! The food is high quality, great service, the ambiance is so relaxed and nice. And their tiramisu is beyond this world delicious!

Salad Di Mare, tossed with lemon oil and olive oil.
Carolyn B.

We went for lunch. The menu serves for lunch and dinner and they do offer specials too. My Di Mare salad was very generous with the sauteed seafood of clams and mussels in their shells, calamari and shrimp. My husband remarked on how delicious and fresh the vegetables were on his pollo parmesan plate, but he was expecting more breading on the chicken ( being used to American style Chicken Parm). Service was gracious and timely. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere of the historic Walker House is elegant. The decor is classic and quiet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't know why some people have said it looks rundown![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant owner told us she's never experienced any ghost sightings, but did show us a peephole under the beautiful staircase.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It seems a previous elderly resident visited and told a story of how a little door at the side of the stairs accessed a compartment. This is where she and her brother would hide, to view incoming guests, through a hole they drilled into the wall! Unfortunately the San Dimas Historical Museum, on the second floor, was closed when we had lunch, but it might be worth a look next time.

Prosciutto e Burrata

We came here on a Friday at 1:45 pm and we were the only table dining. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is really elegant and nice, as they played soft classical music in the back and with barely any chattering from anyone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was really nice, introducing and recommending dishes to us. I don't know how authentic their Italian dishes are, but here are some dishes that stood out to me: Orrechiette (9.5/10): a bit on the oily side, but it tastes really good with the Italian sausage and broccolini. Ravioli (9/10): I didn't know you can put beef inside ravioli until today. I always thought ravioli is filled with cheese. Starter bread (9.7/10): It is crunchy and airy at the same time. It tastes exceptionally good with the salted butter they provide. It is also free and refillable Red beets salad (8.5/10): I actually don't know the real name. I just remember the red beets taste really good. Daily special seafood (9/10): Also a bit on the oily side but their ingredients are fresh. I really love their shrimps. Tiramisu (6/10): Not the best tiramisu I had because it is more liquid. The server says they never add rum to it. Prosciutto e Burrata (8/10): I was expecting more from this dish but it tastes pretty basic. Nothing special or impressive.

My daughter and I enjoyed our lunch out. And we're always looking for a great place to come back to. And we will be back.

Born and raised in Venice, Italy. The food was amazing. The service was quality and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambience was home. It made me feel like I was in my Nonna's house.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't wait to come back with my famiglia

Margherita Pizza, Spaghetti al Vongole, delicious!!
Sunny H.

We had such a great experience at Vincenzo's Terrazza! Our server, Julian, was the sweetest! He's super friendly and personable, and he gave us a fun rundown of all the specials. We ordered the margherita pizza, spaghetti al vongole, and gnocchi special, all delicious, with amazing texture and flavor. Also, fun bonus: there's a little museum upstairs you can check out. Great conversation starter and something unique you don't usually get at a restaurant. Highly recommend for a date night. Great food and wonderful service that really makes the night. We'll definitely be back!

How does a handicapped person (using a walker or wheelchair) enter the restaurant?

There is a long ramp on the right side of the restaurant (if you're facing the restaurant) that is wheelchair or walker accessible, so you can bypass the stairs.

Do they have a sit down bar?

How about gluten free vegan pasta?

Yes they do have gluten free pasta

Am I allowed to bring a bottle of wine, if yes what is the corkage fee?

Yes. I believe it's $20

Is there any pasta available that does not contain egg white? Even dried pasta? (Allergy, though minor cross contamination is okay).

We do offer a whole wheat pasta option, which does not contain any egg.

Is the pasta homemade?

It is fresh pasta! Not dried! Not made in house! I celebrated my mother with my sister today at Vincenzo's and asked our waiter. He also told me that they also have their gelato made for the restaurant. Today I had the tiramisu. Yum!

Are there any vegan or vegetarian options?

Yes, we have vegetarian AND vegan options available.

Open on Christmas day?

No, they are closed for Christmas Day.

Do they make their own pasta in house?

No it's fresh but brought in

How many restaurant.com certificates can we use in one transaction?

Restaurant.com terms only allow us to accept one certificate per table.

Is there a difference between lunch and dinner portion and pricing?

No, same price and portions on all dishes. We have one menu that we serve all day.

Does this place still offer the seared scallops in truffle sauce?

They didn't offer it but I asked and they hooked me up. It was different from the ginormous scallops from back in the days. These are smaller in size but just as delicious as it was years ago. This place is awesome you can't go wrong.

Are you still serving squid ink pasta?

Usually that dish is a special of the day. But you can always ask your server and and if we have squid ink, we would be glad to make it for you!

No we will be closed Memorial Day. Hope to have you in another time!

Are you accepting Restaurant.com certificates right now?

Yes we are

Is there outdoor dining?

Yes, we certainly do! Vincenzo's Terrazza is keeping it's romantic flare, impeccable service and full menu lineup even outdoors. We have a beautiful secluded 20'X40' lighted area surrounded by (10) Evergreen pine trees. As well as a private table… 

Do they have a corkage fee?

Yes, corkage fee is $18

This place is absolutely delicious! I really enjoyed the food and can see why it's so popular. We…read morearrived right when they opened at 12:15 p.m. on a Saturday, and there was already a line out the door. Despite the crowd, we were seated within about 25-30 minutes, which wasn't too bad. Just be sure not to arrive too hungry because we don't want yall to be hangry! If you're looking to avoid the wait, I'd recommend visiting on a weekday, especially around 2 pm or 3 pm. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient. The atmosphere had a welcoming vibe that reminded me of being in Thailand, which added to the overall experience. The restaurant is spacious and comfortable, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal. As for the food, their fish and chips are hands down the best I've had. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh, and every bite was worth it. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality, service, and overall experience make it well worth the splurge. I'll definitely be coming back with my gf!

3.5 Stars First…read morevisit and had an okay experience. We went to celebrate my mom's birthday. The service was efficient, but not overly friendly. The food was a mixed bag. Some items were delicious; others were lacking in flavor or had an "unusual" taste. The dining area is a decent size, it was clean, and there is plenty of parking in the shopping center's lot. FOOD: We ordered a varied selection from the menu. Some items, Breaded Shrimp ($7.95), Smoky Seared Ahi Tuna ($20,95), and Ocean House Halibut ($33.95) were very tasty, but the Ahi Tuna Grilled, served rare ($18.95), Clam Chowder ($9.95), and Seafood Bisque ($10.95) were only okay. I mentioned an unusual taste, not bad, but the flavors of the chowder and the bisque were different than I've had at other seafood restaurants. I tried their Thai Iced Tea ($5.25) which was good. Overall, we felt that this dinner experience could have been better, but I would be willing to pay them a second visit and try some different menu items.

Cute little spot, very clean and open space…read more We got there right when they opened for breakfast. My husband got the chilaquiles, he has they were flavorful and the chips were crispy & everything was fresh. I ordered the enchiladas, the sauce was tasty and the chicken was delicious. I was worried it would be boiled chicken but the chicken had onions and good spices. The rice was so yummy!! The margarita was a good size, perfectly sweet and the chamoy rim was a yummy touch. We were the only people in the restaurant, they open at 9 & we got there at 9:03. The waitress was friendly and attentive. We will be back for their $6 Monday Margarita specials and to try other dishes. The food tasted pretty authentic and the price point was great. Chilaquiles with rice & beans $12 (+$6 for meat) Enchiladas $18 Margarita $6 (Monday special)

Early this year our visit to Origen Mexican Cuisine....We decided to dine in instead of takeout,…read morethe carne en su jugo was absolutely packed with flavor, warm, savory, and the kind of dish that feels like true comfort food. Perfect! The wine-based cantarito paloma was a fun twist on a classic and beautifully presented. Great balance of citrus and spice with that Tajín rim but would prefer tequila instead of the fake stuff lol JUST SAYING... Service was friendly, not too attentive but ok, the ambiance was relaxed and catered to our kiddo by putting on a movie for him that was kind of them.... A great spot in San Dimas for some somewhat authentic mexican flavors....we would give it another shot again... see what else we try next time.
