Vineys Italian Kitchen - (Near Sonora, CA)

5 /5 Marissa Spiller: The food was amazing!!!! Definitely worth my time small portions but enough to were you will be full and not waste your food!! We got lasagna spinach style and my husband got the chicken parmigiana I had a bit of it it’s was so good! Highly recommend bThis place if your passing through or live in Sonora!

1 /5 Jason: I have tried Vineys a few times over the years but this was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had. The food is extremely overpriced for the amount you get. $14 for 4 over cooked mozzarella sticks. The “beef” raviolis are actually cheese raviolis with some meat sprinkled on top and swimming in grease. The Chicken Marsala had zero flavor, somehow even the chicken had no flavor. The lasagna was the only decent thing but it was also swimming in grease. Every attempt at taking a bite pushed the grease out of the bowl and all over the table. I got a soda refill and it had ants floating in it. We told the server about the ants and he came back a few minutes later with a new drink but when we told him the amount of grease was disgusting and he claimed “that’s what happens when you cook meat.” We stated we can’t eat a bowl of grease and his reply was “it is not disgusting, those are our best sellers and there’s nothing wrong with the food. Maybe there’s something wrong with your taste.” I would avoid this place like COVID. Unless you want to pay for an overpriced trip to bathroom or ER. I know if I tried to eat that soupy mess that is exactly where I would have ended up. I will never go back and I will never recommend anyone to eat there. STAY AWAY.

3 /5 T V: Good, not great. We were one of only two tables in the entire restaurant and it still took OVER an hour for our meal to come out, with apps arriving at the same time. Had to ask for a table, had to ask for a menu, had to ask for the check. Our server was very kind but inexperienced which made the interactions awkward at times. Not really her fault, just part of the whole picture. The place was clean and the dining room was open and airy. The decor was generic Italian wine and grapes, with a few real plants sprinkled amongst the plastic ones. When our food finally came out it was hot and tasty for sure, but a bit pricey for what we received. Samosas had good flavor but werent sealed well, and honestly could have used double the filling. Butter chicken was watery although it did have good flavor. Tikki Masala was rich and perfectly spicy. The chicken in these dishes was scant, but not overcooked or freezer burnt which was a plus. Our naan was a bit oily but not bad at all. Pizza was nothing to write home about, but the kids had no complaints. All this considering, I will be back to try more items on their menu. The flavors were reminiscent of warmth and home cooking, and the diverse choices at this restaurant deserve a second chance and a place in our small town.

5 /5 leidy monsalve: This place is amazing! Its very peaceful, and you can go to eat with your whole family since they have a very extensive menu to suit different tastes. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the chef is very friendly and puts a lot of love into his dishes. Highly recommended!!

1 /5 Eddie Offermann: Absolutely ridiculous. Viney’s has been our go to here since we moved to Sonora several years ago. Tonight I was blown away but the craptastic portion size - way too expensive for the TINY “calzone” that’s more like a stuffed breadstick. And then I took a bite. What on earth even is this? It’s rubbery and disgusting. I threw it in the garbage. I’ll make something to eat myself. What the heck has happened to you, Viney’s? This is *gross*. This “calzone” was basically a Hot Pocket that somebody let defrost and then stuck in the microwave without its sleeve - so not only was it garbage food, it wasn’t even properly cooked. I don’t think I’ve ever been so mad at a restaurant.
