| - I've been eating at Vito's since they opened in the mid-1980's. Sometimes the food was great, and sometimes it was not so great.
The last time I ate there before today was about a year ago, and the food was lousy and expensive. That was that...I was done with Vito's for good.
Well, today I got invited to lunch as a guest, and I am so glad that I went back. The entire menu has been re-vamped. The most exciting part was that Vito's now offers several different "designer salad" selections instead of the tired old Caesar salad or mixed green salad. I ordered the Mango/Blackened Shrimp Salad (with no blue cheese), and I have to say that it was one of the best salads I have ever eaten! Even though the shrimp were a bit overdone, the dressing was sweet and wonderful, the greens were absolutely fresh, and the cranberries and candied nuts added a welcome contrast to the dish
Another pleasant surprise was the bread basket, which was over-flowing with super-soft slices of homemade bread and two different types of butter: plain and herb. Oh, and the wine servings were not skimpy at all, and the wine was very tasty as well.
I couldn't have been happier with my meal, and I am very pleased that Vito's has changed their menu with offerings worth the asking price. Whoever is responsible on the Vito's team for updating and upgrading the menu, you are to be commended.
Bravo, Vito's! You have convinced me to come back!
