Vinni's Pizza Pasta - Allen

We had a late dinner (nearly 9:00) on a Friday night; the dining room was full and the staff appeared worn-out from a busy night. While we were immediately seated it took some time before our server arrived and offered us menus. The menu offers all the basics plus some nice specialties; good wine selection. Service was very slow; our server spent a good amount of time chatting with the bartender in the corner. We clearly caught them at a bad time; will visit again with the hope of a better experience. NOTE: this is a small venue; it gets VERY LOUD when fully occupied.

My son and I were hanging out and I decided i needed to get us a bite to eat. We pulled into the parking lot and I didn 't even see Vinni 's, I was eyeing another place. My son insisted we try this place out, saying he wants to try a Calzone. I love that my son has an opinion and of course told my son yes we can eat here... but I really wasn 't in the mood for Italian food. We walk in and a quiet gentleman takes our order, he was nice and appeared to be the only one there. I ordered the Calzone and my son changed up and ordered a kids Spaghetti and Meatballs. This is amusing because the reason we went here was for the Calzone, but he said "I want Spaghetti, I 'll just try some of your Calzone. So now I gotta share my food... LOL We take a seat and wait for our food. The food came out quickly. My Calzone was incredible! The flavor, the texture, the sauce, everything was amazing. My son ranted about his Spaghetti like it was shipped from Italy, he enjoyed it big time and told me he would save half just he could have leftovers later. My son of course had several bites of my meal as well and loved the Calzone! The gentleman brought out a piece of garlic bread for my son and told him to eat and be a strong boy, I loved this extra touch, my son did as well. I love small fun little places like this and I love that its located in Allen. If I could change one little thing about this place, I 'd have small speakers someplace playing very low Italian music... it would give the awesome quaint place a little sparkle of Italy. That being said, the food is incredible and I loved the service. Allen needs more places like this and I truly want this place to succeed. My son and I can 't wait to come back!

Seriously the BEST pizza we have had in a long time! The owner was very kind and attentive. Would 100% recommend this place. We'll definitely be back!

If you love pizza you love Vinnys because he's an artist he knows how to cook the perfect pie and if you want the perfect pie you gotta try Vinnys because there's nobody else who cooks in Collin county.

Real authentic NY style pizza. I'm a real New Yorker from Brooklyn this is the closest original NY pizza I have found in the area. They're even playing Sinatra to make even more NYC! Great staff. Clean environment with a good selection of pizza Pastas! Highly recommended!!!
