Vinny's Italian Grill - Fredericksburg

This review is specifically for to go orders. We?ve ordered to go here for years. Sadly the dinner crew and the lunch crew are night and day lately. Let?s start with the good. The weekday lunch team always delivers delicious food and gets orders correct. Special orders, basic orders, extra sides of dressing, etc. they get it right! EVERY SINGLE TIME. Now the night time crew, not so much. Getting a basic order correct is like pulling teeth. BUT try to order

Very good food just short handed so To-go may be the best bet

Soon after we sat down a baby roach came walking across the wall. The place did not look clean. The floors looked as if they hadn't been mopped thoroughly in a long time. There was a lot of clutter. Dispite this, we stayed. I got blackened chicken cannoli pasta. It was under/barely filled and the tiny bit of chicken it did have tasted like canned chicken. Definitely not blackened. I don't know how this place has such a high rating.

Ordered on DoorDash a 12 inch pizza. Asked to add ricotta cheese and there was NO sauce on my pizza. Thought maybe I ordered incorrectly but nope. This isn?t the first screw up I?ve had with this place. Super disappointed?.also pizza was not cooked all the way and cold once arrived. My place of work and vinnys isn?t a far driving distance?

Kudos to Sydney for suggesting the perfect dish that truly represents Vinny's: the rigatoni. I was so eager to dig in that I actually burned my tongue! The noodles were cooked to perfection, and the orange sauce was expertly crafted. You could really taste the subtle hint of alcohol in it, and it was wonderfully creamy and well-seasoned. The chicken was cut to match the pasta size and seemed to be nicely breaded and pan-fried. I truly commend the chef for this delightful dish!
