    1st time diner at Veteo. Booked a table for Easter for my family. Alexa the manger reached out to confirm the reservation and explained the menu for the day. Once we arrived greeted with a smile and a beautiful table, my Mother in Law from Brazil was very impressed with the decor. Our waiters Jil amd Michael were top notch. Food was also impressive from the pasta to the Osso bucco. Definitely worth your time to have a meal here.

    Great food and wonderful service. Dylan our server was friendly and knowledgeable. Food tasty, well presented and good portions. Only complaint is I specifically stated that we were celebrating my friends birthday. I even asked for the reservation to be checked again, because I wanted it to be a surprise for my friend. Unfortunately, the staff never came with the bells and whistles to sing for her. I was disappointed about that.
