    Great service & ambience. Some menu items were pretty good, others were just okay. Menu items a bit pricey for the quality. Good place to grab a drink at the bar

    Excellent food and a high quality wine list. The only problem was that the room was very noisey.

    The food was great. The seating was a little tight, but aside from that it was a very good experience.

    The Vandal was so much fun last night. We just wanted a great light meal and shared the Winter Citrus and Smoked Trout rillettes, and then the Duck Breast Entre along with a glass and a half of wine each. It was perfect! We had great service and, as always, there was that cool Vandal Vibe.
