Shout out to Vesuvio Restaurant. We went for dinner this past Christmas Eve, and even though there was a line out the door, the hostess and servers were so patient and friendly. Food was amazing. Thank you!

The staff is always friendly and attentive. The food is simply amazing, pasta is always perfectly made and the pizza is off the hook. The establishment is a small cozy gem.

Just happened to be in the neighborhood and we decided to stop by for an late lunch/early dinner. The staff is definitely very attentive. Our meals were delicious, was very happy with my choice, and their Chocolate Martinis are delicious !!

I used to live in the neighborhood and would go there often. I had to leave NY after 2020. I came back to NY and came back to this place after 5 years and living in suffolk county now. I drove all the way to Brooklyn and it was the same awesome place. Food is great, service is awesome! Will be doing the drive as much as I can. Love this place!

We've been coming here for family events for years, and the consistency of the service, and quality of food had never changed. Great for a quick slice of pizza or a family dinner, when in Brooklyn and looking for a great Italian restaurant, this is our go to spot.

Went here for lunch. I've been wanting to go here for awhile. I had their lunch specials. I had the baked ziti. It was delicious! The sauce was not too acidic. Just right. Love the decor. Service was terrific. Place was very clean. Will go back again when I'm in the area.

My husband and I came here on a whim not knowing if we needed a reservation. We were greeted by the hostess and seated promptly. Our server, Mary, was phenomenal. She was attentive, answered all of our questions (I always have questions)with professionalism. She has a wonderful upbeat personality that is a true asset to your establishment. She treated us like royalty and we were not rushed or pushed out since I am a very slow eater. We are looking forward to returning very soon. The Veal Parmigiana, Cavatelli Bolegnese, Chicken Oreganata, Tiramasu were out of this world.

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! Went here around 8pm on a Saturday with two other people. Service was quick, staff was friendly and food was AMAZING. Everything was so fresh! I’m a huge penne vodka critic but this place nailed it!! All in all, 10/10 perfect spot, prices aren’t too bad. Definitely will be coming back!

This place is always busy, the food is delicious, the service is on point and family friendly. I'll be honest, when I first saw the name of the restaurant I was drawn in to try it because the name reminded me of the Vesuvio's restaurant in the Sopranos show. There wasn't an Artie Bucco greeting me at the table but the place did not disappoint so I highly recommend dining here at Vesuvio's.

Food was good, just found it to be very crowded and that effected the service. Not sure if they were understaffed, overbooked or both. Our server was taking orders , making cocktails and in and out of the kitchen along with serving other tables.

The Italian restaurant in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn has consistently very good food. The restaurant has late hours for takeout, delivery and dining in. I ordered individual slices of pizza which were a nice size. The veal parmigiana hero was on soft bread and the veal was easy to eat. The linguine with clam sauce was a generous portion accompanied with a separate tray of clams. The side order of meatballs were firm.

Rafael Santos

Everyone was very nice, and able to accommodate requests. Service was fast. Calamari was cooked to perfection crispy and not rubbery, the pepper and cherry tomato sauce was delicious as well. Good portion sizes for the price. Chicken parm was good and was the bread.

I always love the food here. Pizza, pasta, or a classic chicken parm on a hero always hits. My family always comes here to eat. Even ordering catered food from here is great. Always a reliable place to get food for catering if you have a party. The restaurant has a formal dining and a front section where you can sit and just grab a slice. It’s almost has the atmosphere of a formal restaurant and also a classic neighborhood pizzeria. The servers are always nice and helpful. Always checking up on you during dinner. It feels very family friendly.

I was in the area for a job, so me and the crew went to pick up lunch. The place was nice inside. There was pizza, which looked good, but we were hungry for some pasta. I ordered the penne ala vodka with grilled chicken. While we waited, we took a seat and had a conversation with the fellas as usual. The place inside is clean tables the were spotless and the energy inside was great the gentlemen behind the counter were very friendly. Our order for 3 pasta and 3 drinks came out to 90, which seems kind of a high price, but I'm not from the area, so I don't know if these are fair prices. We took our food to go after waiting for what seemed like an average wait time. We were given our food in a brown paper bag we didn't hesitate to check, but we should have. We left the restaurant to go back to the jobsite only to discover there were no utensils inside. I was very confused because we ordered our food to go, so I would assume they packed napkins / utensils. I gave them a call to ask them why they didn't pack us any utensils only to be told that we didn't ask for any utensils. I've never had this experience before the first time I've ever had to request utensils for a to go order. I told them that they should offer it to their customers not to blatantly tell them the customer has to request them or at least put a sign up that says it. I've never felt so confused. I felt like I purchased food for my dog, who doesn't need a fork or spoon to eat. Please have the decency to place forks or spoons in your orders. Customers are paying good money for the food don't be cheap with the utensils. After the fact I gave them a call I ended up picking up forks from a deli and only to find my penne ala vodka a soup the plate had what looked like a cup of milk in the tray. I guess they should rename the plate soup ala vodka

I haven’t been here in like ten years. The quality of the food is just not what it used to be. I was wowed year ago by their super fresh calamari that was cut fresh. The service was still ok. But the food came out slow even though it was just a Thursday night. The bread was good. But the calamari was very ordinary. You can tell it is the frozen stuff that you get in a large bag. The clam pasta was wayyy to salty. The shrimp pasta’s shrimp was not fresh. It tasted like it was in the bottom of the freezer for god knows how long. Probably wouldn’t come back.
