1342 SW 160th Ave, Weston, FL 33326, United States
Family owned and operated Italian restaurant. Serving south Florida since 2001.
This restaurant was our favorite Italian restaurant. Only 5 minutes from home. We went there once a week for the last 10 years. It had a great atmosphere, food, and service. The new ownership turned it into cafeteria decor with chandeliers. The food is different. It has different ingredients. My favorites were Sausage and Peppers and Penne Rustica. We were very disappointed in the changes. We've tried it a few times since it became One Italian, but we won't be going back. Italian, it is "not". We'll have to drive to the Vignettos in Plantation to get great Italian food from now on. Very sad to see.
I can’t believe that I’m writing this bad review about a Restaurant that was our “family restaurant” (Vignetos) for 17 years. It is not about the environment or the facility. Is about the quality of the food. One of our favorite specialty used to be Sicilian Rustica Pasta. Today we got an unsalted pasta, horrible salsa and no sausage. The price $25. My God! We called to talk to the new owner but looks like he is very busy. My wife and me miss Mike and the old restaurant (Vignetos). Hopefully the new owners will improve or learn how to prepare properly the Italian food. So far, I feel we waisted our money today. So sorry.
The place looks beautiful and elegant, the service from Sammy was really good, he was a really sweet guy and was very professional with his recommendations. We had gnocchi with vodka sauce and with chicken milanese added, it became our favorite dish the second we tried it. The dish was delicious! 100% recommend this place, perfect for having a nice dinner, with family or dates as well.
New owners! Ruined this great restaurant. Took out the booths, Zero atmosphere. Way too bright and was so loud it was like being in a lunch room. All the tables are close together. Couldn’t even have a conversation without screaming. Not a good dining experience. Will not go back.
Traditional Italian meets FRESH ingredients only! Even just by the taste of their garlic knots you can tell they use fresh garlic and not the pre-minced you buy in a jar... Got a side of veggies next to my eggplant rollatini and even they were amazing - not too greasy, and seared to perfection. Great wine list and excellent service which both are a must for us. We learned that this place is now under a new family management - we can see how they are modernizing the space a little which we liked. Excited to come back!
This was an excellent restaurant. From the supurb staff to the delicious food. The waiter was knowledgeable and made great recommendations. The food was delivered quickly. The flavor of the food was outstanding. The portions were very generous. The bread was wonderful.
It has been many years since I've been here and I must say I am disappointed that I have been gone for so long. Everything was spectacular! The food, the service, the environment were all top notch. I ordered the Joe's Pesto Pasta and it was cooked perfectly and it was a very decent portion (could easily serve as two meals haha). I also must give a special shout-out to absolutely perfect garlic rolls and the best tiramisu I have had. Keep up the fantastic work!
Best garlic bread in town. Comfortable family place for dinner. Very attentive service. Big potions. One of my favorite place. They have plexiglass between every booth. Felt very safe.
Best place! Love the new owners!
Just wanted to let the long time customers know that the Santini Family have left. It was a great run and it s unfortunate. May you enjoy the changes that are taking place. Santini will be at Vignetos in Plantation if you miss him. Sending love, Santini, Chris and kids!
Excellent Food and Service. We have been regular clients for years; we highly recommend it. Thank you.
Great
One of the best Italian restaurants in all the south Florida I m lucky to live close. Keep up the great work.
Our favorite Italian restaurant. Fried calamari is a must for starters. All of their pasta dishes are fantastic. Our favorite server, Simi, is the best.
Recent ownership change at this location. Name changing on October 1. They changed the ingredients to the dishes for the worse, cutting the portions and reducing various ingredients. Even the pizza changed with the clincher being forgetting ingredients in my wifes favorite dish which is what she has every time we dine there and always takes half the portion home. Had barely a bite and had them take the dish away. Atmosphere change for the worse as well, by taking out most of the intimate booths, opening the dining room thus increasing the sound noise, adding many tacky chandeliers and ceiling tiles and with additional bright lighting turning it into a cafeteria setting. Our last visit was on a Friday. When we were departing close to 6:30, normally the place would be full with people waiting. It was half empty. After 20 years of bliss consuming great garlic rolls, dishes and pizza, we are saddened that Vignetos Weston has faded into the sunset.
Great dinning experience
Last evening, we experienced an exceptional meal. We enjoyed a feast of Salmon, Snapper, and Chicken Parmigiana. All three meals were superbly prepared, with ample portions served. The garlic rolls were hot and fresh. I highly recommend Vignetos as a dining experience!
Great Italian food with large portions.
Food is always good and Dave is the man
Food tasted bland and unintersting.
Great pizza
Quiet place, fast and correct service, well presented dishes although a little bland for my taste. Matching prices Parking: Ample parking for the number of businesses and movements of the place. Easy parking adjacent to the premises.
Always get Penne alla vodka. I was craving for it and they delivered it.
Excellent food and portions! Reasonably priced. Friendly staff.
Total disaster. They got a big screen for the Copa america and changed it for the hockey game. An Argentinian restaurant, really?
The food is consistently amazing. I have a gluten intolerance and I can eat their pasta and bread without any issues because everything is so fresh. Best Italian restaurant in town!
My experience I have a I gift card in May 2 / 2024 and I ask in the front if I is the same of plantation they told me YES when I try to use the gift card they told me they separated so I can t not use so Mother s Day is coming a lot people have a gift card of Vignetos please let the customers Vignetos is not part of Plantation no more they sold it Please put sign new ownership so no confusion Thank you and the good it was good and the waitress amazing
Excellent!
Presentation is lackluster at best. The place looks inside like an old Pizza Hut.
Was amazing food. And our waiter Ryan was very attentive and cute.
The food was delicious. Our server was CJ and his recommendations were fantastic. He even recognized my grandma who s a regular even though she s been out of town for 9 months. The food was high quality and delicious and came out FAST. It s not cheap but it s worth every penny.
It s very casual but the food is wonderful. Loved the service and the cheesecake was delicious!
Outstanding consistent food. Great salad choices outstanding service. So friendly and attentive. Its our go to.. when we want a great Italian meal
Great place. Great food. Great service. Have I mentioned great food. Holy cow it was good.
Just ordered 2 full dinners for almost $45. My dinners included garlic rolls. But upon arrival at home only half the garlic rolls given to me. Called to report the incorrect order. They wanted me to drive all the way back to get what THEY FAILED TO PROVIDE. Now they claim garlic rolls are complimentary...liar liar pants on fire. 45 minutes later...still no garlic rolls delivered to my home. I guess they do not value me as a customer for takeout or instore. By the way the store had only 2 tables occuppied with customers when I picked up my order this evening. May be a sign of the SERVICE DECLINE. Caveat emptor...buyer beware.
The food and staff were exceptional Coming from up north its hard to find a quality Italian restaurant VIGNETOS is as good as it gets ! While visiting here its always our first stop Food : 5/5 |
Outstanding food and service. Just lacks a window overlooking the beach! Still great Fter 17 years of going there!
This restaurant has been in business for a long time for a good reason! The food is delicious, the portions are big and the service is excellent. Also, they offer several vegetarian options which are great
I loved it, they give exquisite food and very delicious, everyone who is reading this should go to the restaurant, that is pretty good
Oh my gosh this place is awesome!! We love coming here The staff is always friendly, classy, and on point. You can tell they really take pride in their work and all work together as a team because it translates into the service. We re always blown away because the food comes out so quick. Our favorite dish is the creamy chicken pancetta pasta. Also the roasted portobello mushrooms and free garlic rolls are so good! The desserts and cappuccino are great too if you still have some space left This is a must-go if you re in the area!!
Best Italian food in the country
Excellent food and friendly and expedisious service
Vignetos its absolutely amazing! We went there for the first time and there was a bit of a wait but the seating and atmosphere made it comfortable. The food was absolutely outstanding! The bread that came out before the food was still soft and chewy the next day as we took home leftovers. Our waiter was very attentive and very nice and helpful. He even offered to box up our food to go. I cant say enough good things about this restaurant! Will definitely be back when we return to town.
The food was hot and delicious. Everything from the bread to the food to the service, everything was on point! The portions were large and everything was made fresh! So yummy. We will be back soon!
Best Italian food in the area
Awesome food and service
Loved the food and the atmosphere.
My wife had the Chicken Marsala, one son had Chicken Picata other son had the home made meatballs, which were great and I had the Rustic Pasta which I thought was the best pasta Ive had in Florida. Our waiter, Santini was superb!!! He gave us time to look over the extensive menu before taking our order, which we appreciated with it being our first time there. Santini then delivered us our appetizers and salads, once again giving us time to enjoy these wonderful dishes. Then came the main course and we were blown away by the flavor and presentation of our choices. All in all, Vegnetos was an excellent restaurant with excellent service and excellent food. Cant wait to return to this great establishment.
Ask for CJ! Great service! Great food!
Been eating here for over 20 years and the food and service has always been amazing.
I loved it!!!
I dont mind paying for a good meal and service. However, I hate to say that Vignetos was a marginal experience at best. I understand short staffed, but we were one of the 1st few tables due to just opening for the eve. Our Server stated 2 of the specials were out. Had to get up and ask for additional cocktails.
Waiting and food was awesome
Always awesome, great service, great food. Two favorites are the Chicken Francese and Penne a la Vodka.
This place consistently delivers good food at fair prices whether I am here with a small gathering or a family reunion.
Consistently good quality food and service
Great service big party
Food is well seasoned and fresh. Great portions. Excellent service.
Hot rolls anddeliciousgarlic rolls. My favorite meal of chicken or veal Parmigiano was exceellent. Large portions. Courteous wait staff who were pleasant and efficient. Clean a d roomy interior Parking: Nearby and plentiful.
First time at Vignetos in Weston. Everything was excellent. The service the food and the chocolate cake. Definitely will be back!!
Always a great meal.
First time there everything was very good
After waiting about 10 minutes for our table, on Fathers Day, RYAN was very attentive. The fresh baked knot rolls that greeted us were served some plain, while others were dripping in olive oil and freshly shaved garlic. The kitchen was pushed to its max, but the food was well worth waiting for! My husband had the mixed seafood over linguini, while I thoroughly enjoyed calamari over angel hair pasta ~ both in a garlic & white wine sauce. We were steered to the Millionair Cheesecake, which we shared, and was absolutely amazing ~ Very light and packed with a variety of flavors. Unfortunately, we werent able to return during this trip, but we will definitely be back next time were in town. We enjoyed our leftovers for dinner the following evening. RYAN was very personable and gave us excellent service. Well be requesting him again and recommend that you do the same to ensure that you have a great experience. January 25, 2022 Returned, as we promised ourselves. CJ gave us excellent service. We were seated immediately. Employees were masked. The chef did not disappoint us. My calamari was amazing again, and my husbands Penne Rustica was given the white wine/garlic sauce also. The chef thin slices the fresh garlic and made it exactly as we requested. Its truly a great Italian spot. YES - we had the Millionaire Cheesecake again. How could we not??? 3/18/23 Were baaaaack!! OMG, how can it still be so amazing??? RYAN was still there, so our service was flawless. We ordered the same thing, the same way, and it came out THE SAME PERFECT WAY! I havent been anywhere in this country that I can say that. Please come here, ask for RYAN, make changes to your desired meal as you wish, and get ready to be treated to the best Italian food. Thats coming for an Italian, former restaurant manager!!
First off, Wow! I chose this restaurant due to a menu item when I was looking for a place to eat dinner. The restaurant itself is nothing fancy but was clean. I order the ZUPPA DI MUSSELS for starters and got the Rigatoni Bolognese for my main course. Dinner was served with bread knots, half in a garlic butter sauce and the other half plain. Everything was great! The mussels were so flavorful and tender and so many of them in the dish. I ordered the full size rigatoni and it was a lot of food and really good. I did get a cannoli for dessert and found it to be very fresh and plenty. I would return to this restaurant in a heart beat if I am back in the area again.
Wish this was near me. Visited from out of town. Excellent Rustica Pasta and also excellent veal mandala Garlic rolls are so good. If Im back in weston Im going back, no question. Parking: Easy
This one of not too many restaurants that I really enjoy the food,we live in the Keys and we prefer to drive all the way here to eat a very delicious food, for a good price. People are very nice and the atmosphere is really good. I recommend with all my heart
Great food. Especially the garlic rolls. Havent seen chicken plus eggplant parm on a menu in years!
Another great experience at their Weston location. I had the Chicken Vesuvius and my friend had their Chicken Mario. No complaints because we asked for modifications (mine with the red sauce). Ask for extra garlic rolls. Will I return? Of course. When I want great Italian locally, this is where I dine.
Nice, little Italian restaurant conveniently located right next door to the Weston movie theater. Arrived a little before 6 and we were able to be sat right away. The only wait was the hostess had to set up a table for the large party in front of us and no one else seemed to be seating parties until a gentleman walked up after about 5 minutes and asked if we were with them (which we obviously werent since they had already been taken back). Plain and garlic rolls are served once youre sat down which was a nice surprise. They were soft on the inside and crisp on the outside and the garlic rolls were pleasantly garlicky. We ordered a create your own pizza, Joes pesto, asiago gnocchi, and the stuffed shells house special. Everything was very tasty although we werent expecting the pesto to be creamy so that was a bit disappointing. Forgot to get pictures but the ones already posted give you a good idea of what to expect. Good portion sizes and good service. Vegetarian, but not vegan, friendly. Would definitely go back.
top 5 Italian in weston , probably top 3......Carbonara is amazing ...most plates are really good
Our first time eating here and it was fantastic! Ask for Cj! He is a phenomenal server! The food was all so fresh and tasty! The restaurant was super clean, and the food came out fast. We will definitely be coming here again! Go to Vignetos...you wont be disappointed!!!
Great experience, weve lived in Weston for 33 year and this place is one of our favorite, Chicken Piccata with Angel hair pasted is excellent. I recommend this place to all.
Big portions but average food tastes. This is like a family style of Italian food. I like the nearby Zxxx Bxxx much better.
Our first visit! Very welcoming. Our server Christian was Great! The food delicious & service was also Great! Will definitely go again!
Great place, good service, fair prices. Wonderful place to go after a movie next door.
ALWAYS GOOD!!! Enough said....
Always beyond good
I highly recommend this restaurant whether you are a visitor or a Floridian! Nice portions. Excellent service. The bread rolls are to die for. Weve also had ordered catering and was very good.
Staff is full of attitude, service is abysmal as well. Stay clear as there are many other places which are much better and would be happy to serve paying customers.
The food is authentic Italian. So delicious!
Excellent food. Hot rolls come with the meal. They have a small portion option on the menu. Excellent service.
Amazing pizza!
Great service and versatile selection of excellent ly prepared food Parking: Spacious lot np Food : 5/5 |
One of the best Italian restaurants we have eaten! 5* we are definitely coming back :) excellent service. Their bread is delicious! Loved it
The food is great. I love the penne a la vodka and calamari vesuvio. However the only thing I d change for the better is the opening times. Even in the weekend, it opens late. Should open for lunch . People would like to eat earlier, thanks
Always the best food, service, and joy.
Semmy/Sammy was amazing, great service and the food was delicious!
Amazing Pizza Tonight Very Firm Finally... Just P E R F E C T!!!! (wednesday 12/29/2021), The Service Perfect Very Professional and Kind, The Beer A+ Cool Like an Ice. Im coming back a thousand times, if you have Italian Family this is the perfect place for feel in a House, Thank you and Happy New Year
Great food
The best pasta Ive ever had 100/10. Really great service as well.
Ive been hearing about this restaurant for ages. We finally had a chance to go on Friday. We had a 15 minute wait, which I dont consider a bad thing, especially on a Friday night. I love Chicken Picatta and this is the best Ive ever had. The wait staff was terrific. I truly suggest you give them a try.
Great Italian food.
This is a family owned Italian restaurant that has been around for many years. Ive been coming here for about 10 years and can honestly say that I have never had a bad meal. The rustica pasta is veey good as well as the fried calamari. There is a good wine selection with beer on tap and bottles. Garlic rolls are complimentary and come with garlic and plain, butter on the side. They are delicious. The canoli for dessert is very good as well as the home made tiramisu. Portions are big and the price is pretty reasonable.
Wonderful
I am absolutely coming back. Great food, great service, plenty of space when at full capacity.
Great and delicious spot! The freshly baked garlic knots were so good. Had the Joe s Penne Pasta and the pesto sauce was amazing. Finished dinner off with some perfect mini cannolis. Great portions and awesome service. Will definitely be coming back.
love the good
Love,love,love the food!!! Garlic rolls are out of this world too!!!
GREAT SERVICE... food marginal..Birthday party for 3 people..8 people in total... 2 orders of chicken franchese were HORRIBLE... Worst we (2 people) have had. Take it off the menu or give people something better....WE Will NEVER RETURN. PRISON FOOD... Shame...!!!
Really enjoyed this place. Perfect service and food
Staff was very friendly and nice the restaurant was very clean
Great family restaurant with amazing staff.
Stuffed shells were excellent with a vodka sauce. Good service. Ambience was eh, seats were a bit lumpy.
Typical Italian restaurant. Good food. Friendly service. No lasting impression.
One of the better Italian restaurants in town.
Delicious meal. The red sauce was amazing. Ready to go back very soon.
Recommended by a friend It didnt disappoint, great food forgot to take pictures of the main course.lol
amazing food, like Sheldon in the Big Bang theory would say real Italian!! Great food!! Compliments to the chef!
Very good place to eat Italian food, the service was fast and good
Very good pasta and service!
I come here sometimes with my little sister, and I love their service and food here. I always get the penne allá vodka, the waiters are very considerate and the food overall is very good. I went yesterday and tried some lasagna and it was really good.
Favorite place, risotto, pastas, sauce. Best service!!!!!! Ever
By far a great restaurant fast service amazing pasta by far of all the Italian restaurant I rate this my favorite one here in Florida!
Nice place. The servers were very attentive. Food was good and portion sizes are huge. Definitely worth a visit!
Food is excellent. Service is also very good.
We had a delicious meal! Generous portions and amazing waiter, Semih Great meal experience!
The maximum
Favorite pizza place. Food is delicious and the service is outstanding!!!
I give it 5 stars not because it s the best Italian food you can get anywhere, but because it s the best Italian food you can get in Weston. They do a very good job for a neighborhood place. If you live in Weston or this area you will have to leave the area and spend considerably more, to get better. I like their chicken scarparielo (but it s not on the bone, unfortunately), baked rigatoni and white sauce linguini frutti de mare.
Food was awesome, the chef was amazing in the seasoning of the food and the cooking of it. Our server Brandon was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. He made me and my wife feel like he knew us for years along with my grand daughter. He was amazing and a great gentleman.
Used to love this place but lately the food is not the same. Our order took forever (same happened the time before) and the food was almost tasteless, garlic rolls were hard to even cut with the knife... Very disappointed!!! We were not the only ones complaining, we commented with other people comming out. 3 stars because the waiter was awesome.
Came here after hearing stellar reviews from my coworkers. Vigneto s did not disappoint, and I felt like I was getting a steal for the huge portion and the absolute deliciousness of my order (penne alla vodka). Our waiter was wonderful and patient, and all dishes came out quickly. We actually realized we were quite past closing time and they had let us stay, and still kindly bid us goodbye! The food, the atmosphere, the incredible staff this restaurant is a lovely gem and I m a permanent customer now!
Excellent as usual. Weston has a bunch of Italian spots, with several more upscale, authentic and unique than Vignetos. But Vignetos hits the mark as a great red sauce Italian American spot. Which I guess is its own class of authenticity. The classic dishes are done well and their pizza is well above average, too. If you are looking for classic Italian American dishes and no frills, then this is the place to be. Outstanding service, good vibe, great homestyle food.
Food is great and service timely It s been 5 years since that review above. It s still accurate. Their sausage and peppers is to die for though. We ate in and all was really good.
Best Italian I ve had in the area thus far. Other places are overpriced and the portions are small. The service here was spectacular and the food was delicious.
I will give this restaurant one star because our waiter was very nice and one entree was ok (while two were below average if I m being generous). The combination of tough veal, little flavor or seasoning on any dish, sand in the mussels of another dish, and the over cooking of everything on the table made this experience reminiscent of trying to order sophisticated entrees at a pizzeria.
The food is always incredible and the service is always spot on! My favorite Italian place for sure!
Great garlic bread (everyone ate it before my picture), amazing pasta, great service.
Service & food was awesome!!! Went twice!!!
Geat serice great fiid everyone very polite
Good chow. Local place. Easy and delicious !!
Super delicious food and super friendly employees
Excellent Quality
Excellent quality food and service. Prices are reasonable. Totally recommended.
I always love to come here when visiting Weston. Great and delicious food. Staff is amazingly kind. Environment super comfy in all aspect.
The best of everything is the experience I had today at Vignetos. Service by Stephan was comforting and very professional. He was there to serve. The meals were absolutely excellent... cant wait to eat the leftovers. We look forward to trying many other meals and will return soon.
Excellent customer service. Great food!
Probably my favorite Italian restaurant in Broward County. Food is always consistent at both the Weston & Davie locations. Highly recommend!
One of best chicken parms I have ever had. Great service
Great food and great service
Great food. Excellent service
Yum..great staff..a lot of testosterone ..lol......
Fantastic food and service!!!
Excellent service and and always great meals.
The Best eggplant stack ever
Its a great restaurant overall. I love their garlic rolls. Just wish their dishes were a little more consistent with flavor.
Clams and pasta were out of this world. Garlic knots are amazing
Very good
Spectacular
Vignetos has been one of our favorite restaurants in Weston since the day they opened. We are so happy that we were able to order penne solo mio and chicken marsala (our favorites) throughout the pandemic. Thank you for always being a part of our family with your delicious food and great service!
Delicious and great service
Excellent everything. Food, service, and did I say food. Very tasty.
Vignetos is the best! The staff is extraordinarily friendly and the service is always excellent. Their Chicken Francaise is my favorite dish anywhere!
Really nice place.
Very good
Our favorite gnocchis in town!
Food and service are fantastic. Truly felt like I was eating at a friend or relatives home.
Great Restaurant. Excellent food and service
First time here and it was a delight. Our server was really sweet and our food was a delight.
Awesome place I have eaten there many times Always great Pasta awesome Great service Highly recommend
Outstanding waiting service. Pizza parlor atmosphere. Good food but over priced.
The service is alwats extra special . And food always excellent and consistent
The food is great! Only thing I find odd is that they only have male servers. The only woman Ive seen the few times Ive gone is the young hostess.
The food was indeed delicious. The bottle of Sangria was amazing. But their lack of safety protocols ... no good. They did remove that the staff wear masks after I told them that it was on this page...which is the only reason we went. So I will say, they are transparent about their limited safety protocols in the midst of a pandemic.
The food and service in this restaurant is excellent. I ate the seafood risotto and it was the beat one I ve had ever. You get fresh garlic bread as soon as you get seated. Nice selection of wine also. My wife had chicken parm and she loved it too.
Never had a problem with the food. Portions are large so we always have leftovers.
Always have great food and service there. The wait staff is very friendly and make you feel welcome. One of my top restaurants in the area.
Great!
Great service and food, decent price!
Excellent pizza and garlic rolls , great service. Always love eating at Vignetos.
This was hands down some of the BEST eggplant parm that I have ever had! Absolutely fabulous. We havent actually dined in at this place in several years, but after this amazing take-out, were thinking we need to go back soon. Delish!
Delicious.
Excellent service and the food was surprisingly excellent. I asked for a non-menu item and they did it was really good. Being next to a theater, I expected less. But they really did a great job!!
Delicious food
Best Italian Restaurant. 4.7 *****. Id say 5* for food, service, and portions and omg flavor!!! Santini our waiter was great! Came back for a second time during same trip!!?
I had a great Frutti di Mare pasta with a Prosecco!.. yummy!
This was a great experience all around. The menu looked so good we ordered multiple plates and appetizers and ate family style. Everything was so good and there were barely any leftovers. I thought the great part was each persons favorite dish was different than they expected. Beautiful restaurant, great food, and good service.
Great food
Absolutely wonderful service and the food was awesome. Will go back many times.
Excellent restaurant I always order Seafood Risoto and the attention
