We live very near this restaurant, which is no longer Savoy, but is indeed called Vinnie's. Italian food. I can't say enough good things about this place. The last time we ate there, the service wasn't as good as usual, but it was still excellent! The pizza fell on the floor when put on that tray on the table, but the hostess or our server immediately took care of this mishap.

In past visits, and with this last one, right when we walk in the door we feel welcomed, enthusiastically welcomed! The place is always busy and we can tell that the people eating here are mostly locals like us, which often means that Vinnie's is doing something right.

The food is simply excellent too. Order anything and you'll love it. But honestly, it's the service that has kept us coming back.

Just to let you know, I don't have any connections of any kind to this restaurant, but just want to see these good people continue to thrive. More restaurants should follow Vinnie's service practices.

If you want Italian food in Asheville, this is the place to go! Their menu features fresh local seasonal dish specials... and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. It's all fantastic! Their warm service and cozy atmosphere have you feel like you've been a part of the "family" forever. They also feature a great selection of wine and local brews.
