Absolutely horrible, maybe the pizza is good but their pasta and meat dishes are pathetic at best, president's choice/no frills level ingredients prepared improperly and the service was intensely slow. There were maybe 3 other tables and it took us 20 minutes to get a (day old) bread bowl.
I ordered the Veal, the meat was worse than the bargain meat at No Frills, 2 new potatoes roasted all day, and some way overcooked carrots that took an hour to get to my table was hardly worth the insane $18.50 price tag.
My wife got the Chicken Carbonara and it was horrendus, no sauce, scrambled eggs, and dry pasta. Plus she vomited and had digestive issues before we even got home.
Thumbs 100% down.
Stay away!
I must say, I'm completely floored with Eric's review of Vesuvio.
I was there on Saturday. Every table was taken, the atmosphere was great, the service was supreme, and the Chicken Carbonara was one of the best I've had. Good amount of sauce, not dry at all, and absolutely no digestive issues!
I will definitely be taking some friends and family over to Vesuvio the next chance I get!
Well Hooray for David. Was there before Christmas with a friend for lunch. We shared a Calamari appetizer, and this is someone who does not share. Followed by a shared pizza. Don't recall which one but one of the listed ones, crust quite delicious and ingredients more so. Our server, a young lady, could not have been nicer, was attentive and took good care of us. Planning on going back soon.
I really liked this place until the day I popped in for lunch with a friend. We we're welcome to sit anywhere (since no one really dines there during the afternoon), so we chose the bar. While munching on our grub a cockroach was crawling on the bar's counter top infront of us. We quickly left after the pest was spotted, good tasting food, but I'm never coming back.
Used to eat at and order pizza from Vesuvio's all the time.
Until one day I ordered a salad with my pizza (delivered) and found a live cockroach crawling in it!
So I phone to complain and alert them - their response was appalling! No mention of - oh we'll make sure that never happens again - we'll get the kitchen cleaned up. Oh no it was what else would you like. AS IF!
