the owner is from New York and boy do they make great pizza. the service is good and the owner
Is always polite. I have eaten here many times.

I like Vinny's food and took a friend there for a few beers, conversation and dinner. We arrived at 5:00 and wanted to chat so we did. We did order beers and had wonderful conversation. We ordered our meal and after the meal, no sooner had the owner brought us our boxes to box the leftover food he returned asking if we could pay because he had people with children waiting to eat. We looked around and saw no wait and two empty tables in our room. Besides that, we were not given an opportunity to order another drink or dessert or anything else. The attidude was okay, you've eaten, we've fed you, now get out. I was livid. After having put myself through college working at better and larger restaurants than Vinny's I told him that his behavior was rude and unacceptable. Customers are NEVER asked to leave their table for other customers. We were not drunk; had not sent back food; were normal, paying, ordering customers who, having waited tables before, were prepared to leave a good tip. He commented that we had been there since 5:00 and now that it was 7:00 we had to leave. Then when I told him exactly what I thought of his behavior he suggested I was overreacting. Not a chance, my friend. I will NEVER eat there again. The customer is to be treated with respect and if they decide to sit there all night, as long as they are ordering and behaving well, you NEVER ask them to leave. It was disgusting behavior and I am ashamed of the owner.
