| - Okay for drinks, never eaten there. I've only been there with my GF and her work buddies for drinks.
I agree with the earlier comments regarding the Vig as being a place for people to see and be seen. It's in a peripheral neighborhood of Arcadia and seems to aspire to be the equivalent of a Scottsdale club. It doesn't make it.
First, there's no need for valet parking. This isn't the kind of neighborhood for it. Take over the cheap Mexican place immediately to the north and let people park there. Sorry, folks, this ain't Scottsdale. A lot of people don't care to have valets park their vehicle in a midrange bar.
Had two drinks, honestly poured, a little pricey--but then, you're paying for a "trendy", Gen X and Y atmosphere. Beer price was all right. The trouble is that this place seems to be a dive which is trying to reinvent itself as a "happening" place.
I'm an Arizona native, and could immediately wonder why a bar would put upholstered furniture on the patio in the middle of summer. Guess they don't mind replacing cushions yearly.
I'll repost after eating there; thus, this is an incomplete review. However, if you like to see either older women on the make or the younger crowd showing off, cool. But this place might do better as a neighborhood bar.
