Mickey was a fantastic server, the food was excellent - especially the seasonal fried green tomato caprese appetizer and the seasonal lemon blueberry cheesecake (which Mickey brought out with a candle for my birthday, such a nice touch!). Ambiance was very relaxed and lovely. Can’t wait to go back!

This has been my second visit to Vintage on Race. I had been dreaming of the Philly Steak Eggrolls and beef sliders since my initial visit for the Bengals first game. I must admit Brielle set the bar pretty high with our initial visit so our server for our most recent visit had high expectations to live up to. She was very sweet but a bit slow on the service and checking in. We understood that it was football Sunday so probably had a lot of things going on at once, but would’ve appreciated a bit more attentiveness and communication. The food was beyond amazing as usual and we enjoyed watching the game there! Will definitely be back again!

We had a wonderful dinner with 2 friends that were in from out of town. The service was outstanding. We were looking to select a red bottle of wine for dinner and we are a little bit of wine connoisseurs. We didn't really see anything on the main menu that were interested in drinking. Our very kind server allowed us to order a wonderful bottle off of the members menu and it was perfect with our dinner. The bolognese was amazing! My husband ordered the short rib which was very tender and tasty. We also highly recommend the meatball appetizer and the prosciutto, chips and parmesan. Our out of town guests from Chicago were also very impressed with our dinner. Bravo Trecento!
