    We had the most wonderful time at The Vig for Easter lunch. It was our first time there and we were recommended this amazzzing restaurant . The lovely waitress Stacey was excellent and the food and drinks were soo excellent too. There was a guy playing the guitar when we got there which added to the beautiful ambiance. Thank you The Vig .

    We had a Saturday evening reservation for 15 and had a fantastic experience. We had great cocktails, appetizers, and dinner. We loved the live music and ambience of the patio. Can’t wait to come back!

    Great outdoor space. Busy night but very slow service. Appetizer for children not provided for in excess of 30 min. Not all food delivered at the same time. Server very professional but it was very obvious this location is understaffed. May visit again but only after serious consideration of other options. Disappointed out of town guests.

    Two nice young girls greeted us and showedvus to a nice table outside. Jennifer was our server. She was knowledgeable about the menu and very nice. Made good suggestions. The food was delicious. Only thing that could have bern better was if Jennifer had more help. She was responsible for too many tables. She is a very hard worker! The testaurant is lucky to have her.

    With young children that like to spread out with a few toys, the patio was amazing for us! Great brunch food options, and half-priced Mimosa's for the WIN! Special shout out to Jordan, our server who went above and beyond taking care us. :)
