Wrong Food, Incorrectly Cooked, Plating was Ghastly
My beef tenderloin was plated in the shape of a curved bowel movement. The chef brought it to the table and described it as a "smiley face." Gasp-inducing.
I ordered it "medium" and the beef was rare.
My friend ordered Baked Chicken and he got the vegetarian pasta dish, instead. We literally could not flag down our waiter for five minutes to tell us that the expeditor gave us the wrong dish. How on earth is this place still open?
Safe outdoor dining; terrible food
We visited on an Friday evening in July 2020.
On the plus side, the restaurant did a very good job with safe dining during the COVID-19 pandemic. The street in-front of the restaurant was closed, and tables were on the street very far apart (well over 6 feet) from each other. Servers wore masks. Orders were placed online before visiting, drink menus were paper and disposable, and all drinks and food were delivered to a “clean” table in the center of the outdoor area for you to then pick-up. Similarly, you bussed your own dishes to a “dirty” table. Staff stayed well over 6 feet away from the table. All of that system worked well. Additionally, our server was fun and reasonably attentive.
On the negative side, the online reservation and ordering system was confusing and inaccurate. You pick a specific table (they all have names), but is is unclear that you are doing so (it only made sense when a friend of ours in the neighborhood stopped-by and saw the labeled tables). Oddly, although we were a table of four, we could only place orders for up to 2 of each item—meaning that if all four us happened to want the same, say, appetizer, it would not be available. Additionally, we booked a 7:30pm table, and the confirmation then said 6:30pm. This was cleared-up with a call to the restaurant. So, the website could use some improvement.
Also on the negative side: most of the food. Appetizers were good—a salad was fresh and a corn dish with caramelized onion was tasty. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. Roasted chicken was under-seasoned and a little rubbery; the croutons with which it was served were soggy rather than crisp, and the greens too bitter. A major disappointment, though, was the mushroom agnolotti, which was pretty much inedible. There was barely any mushroom, the pasta was drastically undercooked (and thus had the texture of wallpaper paste), and the sauce was gloopy and looked like Elmer’s glue. Desserts were sadly not better: a pot de creme was too thick and cloyingly sweet and a sherbet tasted like chemicals and was served with an unpleasant and undercooked biscuit.
Although we all had a great time socializing and enjoyed the outdoor dining and scene that Vincent had created, and were grateful for that, we were also all surprised—previous visits had far better food. We commented as we left that we basically at the food because we were starving and it was some of the worst restaurant food we’d ever had. Hopefully things get better as the round out the outdoor menu.
BUSY AND CRAMPED BUT WORTH IT
Had a great burger and solid fries. Good portions. Heard down table the mussels were good. Gnochi got raves. Pricey

Dined at Vincent with husband and two friends. Hadn't been to Vincent's for several years... friend picked out of other A-villed options. Overall I recommend. Service could have been a little more on point, but I think they may have been short-staffed. We had four cocktails (two honey & jalapeno and two sazeracs), two apps (bread and pickle pot). Drinks were delicious. I think the apps were way overpriced. Bread and butter, four pieces was $7. Ridiculous. We rounded out our dining experience with Mussels & Frites (mussels were plentiful / generous and fries nice), Pork Chop, Gnocchi and Chicken Liver Mousse. Fries were nicely seasoned and crisp, mousse was tasty, but could have been a bit more liver forward, gnocchi good but a bit mushy and pork chop nicely done. We also had a bottle of the Bedrock Zin which was delicious -- marked up about 100% from retail. We finished with a tasty chocolate pudding shared amongst us. Recommend, but they could re-think a few things.
Be the first to ReplyAmazing frites!
Went to Vincent on a chilly night and had a decent meal. White wine and garlic mussels were good if a bit on the tiny side. The frites were amazing as was the bread served with the mussels. Cheeseboard was good but should have been served at room temp not straight from the fridge. Everyone seemed to be ordering burgers so we did too, but instead of a fried egg, it was more like a barely cooked and very runny poached egg. BF said his steak was perfectly cooked and very tender. Overall the food was OK, but not worth travelling all the way from downtown. Very noisy and difficult to have an intimate conversation. We had to remind the waitstaff about a couple of items they forgot.

Wonderful neighborhood environment and since the menu changes frequently, making this a regular spot is ideal. Excellent choice for locals and visitors of all taste buds. The bread was outstanding too.

After hearing such good reviews we traveled outside downtown to Vincent for dinner and drinks and couldn’t have been more impressed.
I feel like we’re in a time where low quality service is hard to find. That’s definitely not the case here. We were treated at the door and seated at a comfortable and romantic outdoor table. The owner heard it was my birthday and hand delivered a piece of cake which was an unexpected surprise!
Without hesitation I’d recommend Vincent to friends and family.
Keep up the good work and we’re looking forward to returning soon!

best brunch in andersonville
I'm always shocked this place is not packed for sunday brunch while there are lines outside other brunch places in the neighborhood and this place is superior. They also have great pricing on bottomless mimosa's/bloody mary's. Candle lighting is also done for brunch which makes it romantic too!
