A VERY GOOD EATERY BY FRANCOIS VATEL"
Reviewed November 29, 2012 NEW
Our renowned, distinguished physician friend, his wife and 2 daughters ages 12 and 10 were visiting us from rhode island[the ocean state]. our server BECKY , a local young lady treated us like royal guest. we started with the fried calamari which everyone found too TOUGH and too small. all of us are seafaring people , so we know good seafood.my friend had the fried artichoke heart. they were ok. the chicken parmegiana was tasty ample portions and fresh. the eggplant parmegiana was plentiful, a little too fried. the stuffed flounder mediterranean was very well presented and enjoyed.the shrimp fra diavolo and the shrimp ala pappardell were shall we say well prepared bountiful and Delicious. the vanilla creme brule was probably the best ever. everyone wanted to taste it. all the dishes on the menu are very good, you can not good wrong. we have eaten there in the past. every one was polite and at ease.
Whenever I'm in the area, this place is a must stop. I would give this place more stars if they were available. The food is absolutely wonderful. I have never had a bad meal there. The portions are generous and everyone I've ever gone with always seems to have leftovers. (The leftovers are quite a treat for the next day). The wait staff is conscientious and friendly. They really get to know their customers. The prices are very reasonable, especially if you come for early bird special. The comedy is a treat, and it is a wonderful evening out for family and friends. I also appreciate the fact that the management will tell you if the comedian is a bit "blue". This place is wonderful. If you're in the area, I would say stop. You will be glad you did.
Review Source:This place continues to amaze me! The food is off the chart good and now they've added a $10 pasta night on Fridays. That is now our favorite night to go! More food than we can eat, so it's also "lunch Saturday." Try the Clams Casino!!!! Comedy if booked by Comedy Zone and comedians tend to be on the cleaner side. You will be warned when booking if it is an "R" show (usually national touring TV guys). What amazes me about this place is the quality of not on the food but the staff. It is the one place I take visitors WITHOUT fail!
Review Source:6 STARS!!
Was back at Visani last night one more time before moving back north to be close to my kids...absolutely could not leave without hitting my fave place again!
I had (new menu item) Shrimp Arregenata ($13.99). Tasty, flavorful, great sauce, lotsa shrimp over perfect pasta, good portion and fresh fresh fresh ingredients...I'll be enjoying the leftovers for lunch today. Friend had Eggplant Parmegiana ($10.99) that elicited purely positive comments too. Stuffed mushroom appetizer was good, I've had good Bruschetta at Visani and also seafood crab cakes in the past too, but what I really want to recommend to you for an appetizer is their deep-fried Artichoke hearts...awesome, and I don't even really like artichokes!
Visani is the kind of place that you're really tempted to steal food off other tables around you to try everything...great pizzas, TOP-NOTCH steaks, and the fish is never frozen. Good wine list too, but you can get away cheaply if you want with the house Cabernet @ $4.99 a glass. My Jack'n'Cokes were good and strong @$5.50...below average cost for this area at a good restaurant.
Visani also has a great Friday night Pasta night: 10 pasta dishes for under $10.
Join this all together with the good up'n'coming comics and great NAME comedians they get often and you have a great night out! Visani is about to celebrate their 5-year anniversary, and this place is going to have many many more to come. Visani has become legendary for their food amongst the touring comedians themselves...and they're on the road eating out most of the year.
#1 place for visitors to plan on patronizing...and if you live in the area and haven't been here yet you are MISSING OUT !!!
Surprising good food for this sort of clubby place. Â Reminds me of comedy clubs in CA. Â Good Italian dishes.. love their shrimp parpadelle, e.g., decent club pizza and other pasta dishes. Â I've gone here with groups several times and I have never heard complaints...most love the food. Â And the shows are always good too!
