We didn 't know there would be a singer that night, and he has a large following (and a large presence and we just weren 't feeling it! It was impossible to have a conversation, but the staff were very helpful and found us a space outside, which was perfect!

The place is smaller than I expected with a nice bar, 4-6 high tops, a few booths and 3-4 small tables. Thus, seating is limited. We were fortunate to get in without a reservation, however I highly recommend making a reservation and plan to in the future.We observed this place to be more of a cocktail bar, at least the night we were there. Looking around we only saw on other table that had ordered food. I was not particularly fond of the cocktails and believe the prices are high for the quality of the drink.We chose the chili shrimp to start with for our appetizer. My friend is not a shrimp fan and for the first time I had to share with him! The title is slightly deceiving because it does not taste like chili. The sauce, however it 's made, is better than words I have to describe it. $14.99 and well worth the price! Though I certainly would be happier with a bigger portion.Neither my friend nor I had ever heard of Barramundi and we actually though it was going to be a sort of steak given the filet description. In case, like us, you 've never heard of this dish, it is a white fish. Most importantly, the Barramundi is outstanding! Again, the sauce was impeccable and I wish I had the recipe. It 's definitely a unique dish that 's not often served. Vincent 's is perfection.Our server was kind but not too knowledgeable about the menu. She couldn 't really answer our questions but was able to describe the dishes. Perhaps because of the cocktail bar vibe, though I 'd definitely recommend some more training about the food.Overall, we both thoroughly enjoyed the place and food. For us, the prices make it more of a special evening type of restaurant. We will definitely be back and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique menu and romantic vibe.

We've always had an excellent experience at Vincent and gladly recommend it to all our friends. Recently, we enjoyed sitting on the patio with our dog, which was wonderful to find out they are dog-friendly. Everyone was wonderful, and the piano music was just as enjoyable outside on the patio!

Fantastic! Outstanding food and exceptional service. Enjoyed two hours of live jazz music featuring Anne and Mark Burnell. A truly wonderful hidden gem. read more Fantastic!
