Vespri Siciliani - Boca Raton

Unfortunately was very disappointed with this Italian Restaurant. Waited a long time for the dinner to be served. When I did receive my lobster raviolis with shrimp on top, the ravioli tasted like they were from a can of raviolis, did not taste the lobster and the shrimp on top overcooked. There was other issues with my families dinner but will not say no more. Very overpriced, will not be returning.

We were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Big mistake. I mentioned it being a special day when I called to reserve a table and twice throughout the evening and no one seemed to care. Usually in a restaurant for a special occasion they will at least recognize the celebration and wish you well. I guess it was too much of an effort for them. As soon as we sat down at the table, without looking at the wine list, the server wanted to know what kind of wine we would like. Then he wanted us to order right away. Talk about feeling rushed. We managed to put him off and he left us and never came back. We found someone else to serve and chose a bottle of wine. Then the minimal staff completely forgot about us and we had to ask someone to place our dinner order. We had previously checked the menu online and knew what we wanted, however, when my husband ordered the Osso Bucco (which is why we chose the restaurant), they said they didn 't have it. That was a huge disappointment. He chose something else and we placed the order. Then we waited and waited... When the food didn 't arrive arrive after an extremely long time, we asked a server to check on it. She came back and said it wasn 't ready and offered a single comp salad to tide us over. Our meals finally arrived and were just adequate, not great. The veal was grisly and greasy. We didn 't bother to order dessert and weren 't asked if we wanted to or not as, by then the staff were too busy sitting together eating their own meals. Since it was still early in the evening, we felt that was very poor etiquette. As soon as we walked into the place earlier in the evening, we got the impression of being outsiders and not part of their usual patronage. My recommendation if you want to be treated special when you go out for a meal, be it a special anniversary, birthday or whatever, unless you 're a local at this restaurant, don 't waste your time and be as disappointed as we were.

I went to Vespri Siciliani on August 14th, 2022located in 507 SE Meizner Park , Boca Raton. I had the most awful experience in a very long time. Service was dismal: empty tables abound it was near closing time) however, waitress refused to sit us on a more comfortable table. She held a grudge thru the meal by being extra rude and throwing knives on table. Unfortunately meal was equally disastrous: Filet mignon was totally rotten and after we complained, the manager personally came over and agreed that the meat was rotten he then mumbled something about getting back to his vendor). Offered to comp desserts, however we were charged for them nevertheless. In summary an unforgettable experience- we shall never return to Vespri Siciliani. I am a seasoned foodie with multiple Trip Advisor reviews and do not make reviews lightly. Unequivocally a terribly dining experience

Very quiet and fast service. Was empty when we dined. Food was excellent
