This restaurant received a mix of reviews, with some customers expressing disappointment in the quality of the food, while others praised the delicious dishes and attentive service they received. The outdoor space and historic charm of the restaurant were highlighted as positive aspects. Some diners mentioned issues with the preparation of certain dishes, such as overcooked lobster and beef. The noise level was a point of contention for some patrons, but overall, many reviewers expressed a desire to return and praised the friendly service they received.

My wife and I searched for a high end restaurant for our 50th wedding anniversary and found Vickers and we're really glad we did! Great food, great service, and great ambience! Give them a try I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I just wandered onto a review of this restaurant and wanted to share my thoughts on Vickers. I used to work there many many years ago late 90’s (I know I’m biased) and wanted to a share my thoughts on Arturo and his legacy. After many years of thought and experience,I tip my cap to that great restaurant man and his family. Honestly it wasn’t all one man and it rarely is… but that family knew what it took to be successful and they have clearly carried on the tradition. For those of you who have a place where they are known as “regulars”… you know what I’m referring to…. Places like this create a sense of family of which you are a member… from employee to customer… we were all family. I was a “goomba” but that was huge!!! Huge cap tip to the Vickers folks for keeping the tradition of fine dining alive.

The place is closed now... but i loved coming here. the food was always on point and loved seeing the all the regulars. everyone knows each other and its like a big get together Fridays and Saturdays Joe was always there playing the piano. Nothing like hearing Piano playing in the background while having a nice dinner. I surely will miss this place! Service: Dine in
