How could you go wrong when planning a wonderful dining experience to celebrate your anniversary? I'd have to say choosing Vinnie's is the worst mistake we've ever made. First of all, my choice of steak has always been a ribeye. I thought seriously about ordering the 'Cowboy' (32 oz bone-in ribeye for $50) but the waiter insisted the best ribeye was the 20 oz prime aged Delmonico (also $50). I went with the waiters recommendation and ordered the steak 'medium'. The meal was brought out and to nmy dismay, I received a charred 'NY Strip' not the ribeye I ordered. The waiter apoligized and said he made a ordering mistake and that it would take 25 minutes to cook the steak I originally ordered. By the time I received my steak, my wife had completed her entire meal. I had to literally saw through the steak as the outside was charred. The only area of steak remotely close to medium was the very center. Not only was the steak charred, it was the worst ribeye I have ever tasted (outside charred, no flavor, no marbling and probably not an aged Delmonico ribeye). When you pay top $$$ for a steak it should be cooked close to perfection and it should not require seasoning. To top things off, the Manager (Will) had an attitude and tried to say there was nothing wrong with neither of the two steaks (the first of which I did not order to begin with). As a courtesy, he should have comped my wife's meal but said he would only give us a free dessert (remember I never got a meal). Needless to say, this is the first and last time my wife and I will ever eat at this restaurant. We highly recommend that you avoid this yourself.
Pros: waiter was nice; appetizer and salad dressing was awesome
Cons: manager was rude and condescending
