Awesome service and one of the best pizzas I have ever had. I ordered online I walked in on time and the pizza just came out of the oven and it was better than expected. Cooked perfect right amount of toppings. I am impressed.

Came here twice in the last month. Service is very good and the food is good. Out of the six meals we ate none of us rated them outstanding. The bread got a 100% rating even from three people who rarely eat bread. Service was...excellent imo but too slow for several others. One sister didn’t like the decor - huh? I travel a lot it was pretty much standard. Prices seemed pretty standard for the area. Beer drinkers thought beer list was too short. (Craft beer snobs)More

Excellent dinner last night. I can’t believe we have lived in the area for 15 years and just discovered Vincent’s! Nice atmosphere, great service and food

Outstanding in every way. This is an amazing spot. While they serve pizza and it’s good, the restaurant food is what to eat. Very comfortable but quietly attractive. The food is made with the freshest ingredients, the fish is amazing, and the sauces are made...beautifully with appropriate restraint. Subtle, delicious, and more than worth the value prices. We come here once a week and sometimes twice for years. Never had a bad meal. Say hello to Nicole or Frank.More

Vincent's is truly a local gem of an Italian restaurant in Shelton. We have always had excellent meals there. The food is awesome, the prices are very reasonable, and the portions are large. The dinners also come with salad and bread, which unfortunately most restaurants...do not do any more. The indoor dining room is nice and the service is always friendly. We have been getting take-out dinners recently due to Covid and we will continue to patronize Vincent's as much as we can. Thank you Vincent's for continuing to provide delicious meals, with good sized portions, at reasonable prices!More

Party of 5 - everyone enjoyed their meal, from eggplant rollatini, to chicken parmesan, to seafood over pasta, each entree was fresh and delicious. Tasty garlic bread as well! Wait staff was professional and attentive. We would definitely return when in the area.

This is one of those places I hate to write a good review for because it will get too busy! We absolutely love coming here. The food is gently prepared and beautifully presented and of course is delicious. I had eggplant parm and it was...light, not at all greasy and very tasty. It’s not the typical glop covered in cheese you can get at “Italian” restaurants. The fish is always fantastic. Never a fishy smell, properly cooked and never overpowered. The dining room is tasteful and almost has a local NY city vibe with table cloths and dark colored booths. And, the service is extremely pleasant by people who are professionals but friendly and casual. Not a bar for fancy frozen drinks but excellent for most cocktails. Good wine list, not pretentious. Very reasonable pricing. It’s a local crowd that goes early and keeps the place busy. Lines are not unusual at certain hours. This is not on a main drag but it’s not far from route 8. More than worth the few miles. To get seated, go at 7:30-8:30.More

We have become somewhat regulars albeit takeout or dine in. The food is always good from pizzas to chicken to pasta. Good veal and fish dishes too. Love their fresh baked bread. The service is always welcoming and prompt. They can get crowded so when...in doubt, go early.More

I paid a top price for a Chicken Cacciatore entree. This is an easy dish to make well. What I received: chicken slices that were not stewed in the sauce. The sauce itself appeared to be artificially thickened and had no flavor. It was just...brown and bland. No rosemary, no oregano, no capers, no bay.More

3 adults for dinner. We shared a broccoli rabe and sausage app. Very good. I had the gnocchi Bolognese special which was very tasty. Sauce was outstanding. My wife had cavatelli with broccoli and sausage. She loved it. And my mom had ziti with meatballs....Also good. Good solid place. We will be backMore

If there is any complaint about Vincent’s, it is that they have a very uncreative menu. The standard lasagna, chicken cattiatore, veal parmigiana, pizza, etc. The portions are generous, the atmosphere excellent, the service friendly. My wife and I shared a fried calamari appetizer that...was good. My friend had minestrone soup which she stated was excellent. I had a vegetable with capellini pasta dish that was quite good, and my wife and friend had lasagna. What was strange abut the lasagna is that it was a single layer rather than multiple layers. I would return to this restaurant.More

Visited with friends for dinner. We were lucky not to have to wait. Shared antipasto, with assorted dressings. Ordered pizza with pepperoni and roasted red peppers, which was just okay, had one piece. Left over pizza boxed. Waitress did not offer refills. Although busy, we...did not feel rushed. Had a good visit.More

I've been a customer of Vincent's for years and unfortunately, they haven't improved the flavor, seasoning, textures and presentation of their dishes in all that time. The remodeling job of a few years ago has definitely been an upgrade, but not the cuisine. The lasagne...boasts to be a Vincent's original, but in all honesty, I prefer my lasagne with the curly edges crisp and the portion cut square, NOT on the bias. All in all, for a great neighborhood staple, it's good to have them nearby.More

Vincent's Italian Restaurant is a hidden gem in the center of Huntington, CT. The meals are delicious and the service is excellent. We have always found the wait staff to be attentive and we have never felt rushed. We often take older family members to...Vincent's on their birthdays and they are always pleased with both the selection and the quality of the food, Vincent's is always willing to make small changes to an entree if it is possible. Recently we have chosen Vincent's as our venue for group dinners. Our friends were pleasantly surprised to find this hidden gem in the center of Huntington.More
