Vito's Gourmet Watertown Reviews
Love this restaurant, great wraps and salads. Nice big portions. Friendly staff!!
It was so nice going into a locally owned restaurant, and ALL the staff were very nice!! And the food was great!! 10/10 every visit :) I recommend this place often !
It’s always really busy but the wait usually isn’t long. Wish there was more seating. The chicken salad is top notch. The girl at the counter is decent but doesn’t smile much. Coffees are really good as well. They have a $10 lunch deal which is great because it comes with a drink and chips. The whole sandwiches are insanely huge and I could never eat a whole one .
Always love Vito's. I find myself checking the specials (even though I bring a delicious homemade lunch most days), just in case it sounds better than what I brought. Today I had the shrimp club wrap and it was delicious.
Vito’s in Watertown is a hidden gem when it comes to sandwiches and soups. The quality is consistently top-notch, and you’ll never leave disappointed especially if you order one of the Vito’s specials. The portions are incredibly generous. Their sandwiches are some of the largest I’ve ever seen, and the prices are very reasonable considering the size and quality. If you’re not quite up for a full sandwich, they offer a half sandwich option but even the half is impressively filling. Whether you’re a regular or a first-time visitor to downtown Watertown, Vito’s delivers hearty, satisfying meals that hit the spot every time.
Vito's is one of the best tasting sandwich shops in Watertown. The food is excellent. Staff is always friendly. Good portions for the price.
There are a lot of places to eat, but this one stands out in my book. They have some amazing daily specials and a variety of options for everyone. I have never waited long for my food and have always been satisfied. Do yourself a favor...park in the square and walk on over for lunch or dinner. Or order ahead and get the box lunch to go. Well worth the money and trip there.
Had the Diablo on pumpernickel because I don’t like carroway seeds in rye. It was delicious. Also had the corn chowder which was refreshing. My wife had the French dip. It was great too. Service was great and the employees were friendly. We will definitely be back to try more soups and sandwiches!!!
The coffee was fresh and strong. The diablo wrap was equally fresh. I would definitely eat here again. The front desk cashier was such a friendly guy with a nice smile. A satisfactory spot for a leisurely lunch. Unfortunately I was trying the place on a day when an angry customer was there spoiling the ambiance. I understand that warm weather can sometimes bring out the worst in people, especially if they are perhaps overly hungry. This woman felt compelled to use the word “bitch” because her sandwich had only one pickle. They gave her extra pickles and didn’t engage her in arguments. And after she huffed out, they were professional enough not to talk about her in her absence. Which was far better than she deserved. All I’m saying is: Watertown customers: do better! There’s no need to get aggro over extra pickles. But if you do, the staff at Vito’s will still treat you with dignity and respect.
The low traffic at these downtown businesses is really disappointing. A place like this should have a line and they didn't, purely because people just aren't supporting small business. I can see a place like this being a lot of folks favorite spot. I got the Vito's Favorite on ciabatta and my son got the philly wrap. These were in no way traditional Italian deli sandwiches, and the menu did not have all the expected offerings, so don't expect that walking in. But they were absolutely expertly paired ingredients, loaded with meat and cheese and incredibly low priced. I think we spent like 20 bucks? Two cans of diet coke, couple bags of chips and sandwiches. Not my style of sandwiches, but in the end I was not disappointed. Will certainly return to try more of the menu. For unique, "gourmet" sandwiches this place is worth stopping in. Plenty of seating, very clean, nice atmosphere.
Came in for lunch. Reasonable prices, generous portions for the sandwiches and wraps. Delicious! I got the Moonstruck wrap.They have daily specials in addition to the cleverly Italian movie themed names. Their coffee bar is also quite popular. There are a few tables, most customers do take out. No fountain drinks, they have a variety of cans and bottles in a cooler.
My husband and I have been dying to try this place. We each got a buffalo chicken wrap. Somehow they were soggy despite having (presumably) just been made. The chicken was chewy and it tastes more of red onion than buffalo. My husband is adamant we try again for their sandwiches, so possible update to come. Hello! We tried again. The buffalo chicken wrap still tastes only of red onion. Its not made with the breaded chicken to which we are accustomed, but that wasnt a make or break change. The red onion flavor really overpowers it all. We each took 1 bite and that was it. My husband and I both tried Vitos favorite. Unfortunately it just wasn't our speed. My 6 year old got the Michaelangelo without cheese and said he liked his. I also got the pasta salad and just was not a fan.
