"Our least favorite Mexican place on the lake. Margarita was okay. Chips and salsa bar good. Had the chicken and steak fajitas and they were super bland. I did bring them home and added some ingredients and spices and ate them the next day. The guac wasinedible by all three of us. Husband had the taco salad and said it was ?okay? but again, bland. Service was definitely anissue, but we understand that everyone around the lake is having trouble finding and keeping servers and we felt our server andthe other server were doing the best they could. We left a good tip for our server. If we go back, it will be for chips and thesalsa bar."

"We were looking for a late night dinner (9pm and most of the restaurants in the area were closed or closing. Arrived and it was not busy, but the young hostess, who was on her phone, ignored our family for 20 seconds, then glanced up and walked away. She returned a couple of minutes later and and just said how many . (There were only 3 of us. She grabbed menus and justwalked away again. Honestly was about to turn my family around and leave the restaurant we were so put off by her disinterestedattitude. But.....the waiter was great and the food was good. Large portions and good service. And was able to pay with aToast QR code which was cool! Overall, nice. But the hostess needs to be retrained or seriously needs a new job."

"We visited this restaurant for breakfast for the first time, and the food was fantastic! The staff was extremely friendly. We had the breakfast buffet along with their special pear Sangria mimosas, which were unique and refreshing. Although there was a line, we put our names on the list and only waited about 8 minutes. The gentleman behind us assured us it was worth it! We will definitely return when we visit SML again."

"Our first time at Vinny's went with friends who have been there many times. We were seated right away at a table by the window. Vinny's is not a fancy place but that's not what is about; you go for the food and their entrees did not disappoint. We each started with a side salad which consisted of iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion and cucumber. The balsamic dressing was very good. Bread comes right from the oven to the table. Our friends enjoyed it but I was a bit disappointed with the cake like texture. The crust was thin and light where I prefer a heavier crust. The evening special was Shrimp Scampi which my friend ordered. It looked fabulous, the lemony sauce had tender looking butterflied shrimp and sun dried tomatoes. Her husband had Spaghetti and Meatballs; it was a good size portion, smothered in house made sauce with enough left to take some home. My Tortelloni Campagnola was a delicious concoction of cheese stuffed pasta in a creamy red pepper cream sauce with bite size sausage, mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes and artichokes. As he always does when visiting an Italian restaurant for the first time, my husband ordered Chicken Parmigiana. He said the sauce was tasty but the cheese could have been better quality. The chicken was pounded and done perfectly. There is a small bar. We skipped the hard liquor my husband had a beer and I had a glass of wine from their shall but varied list. You could also order a bottle. Our server was friendly and attentive. The noise level was low to medium so it was easy to have good conversation. Prices were much better than we are used to. I'm sure we will be visiting Vinny's again in the near future to try it some of the other menu items."

"Don’t waste your time coming here with your dogs if the suns not shining. We made a point to come to the most dog friendly rated place we could find, only to find out they have two outside seating areas, and only the tiny uncovered one is dog friendly. That wasn’t even really the problem, the rude, dismissive attitude of the gentleman, and I use that word reluctantly, who ushered me back out the door and told me they weren’t serving people with dogs today was. Do yourself a favor, drive down to port side grill. They went above and beyond to make sure us(the humans) and the dogs were comfortable in the less than comfortable weather outside"
