Vallozzi's

Had a wonderful dinner for new years even. They had a limited menu. But everything was great. Their cocktails are balanced and delicious, the arancini was rich and delicious, my veal was great and the bread pudding was DELICIOUS. All of the food was served quickly and definitely tasty

Great food, service & ambiance! Cool historical building in a nice little town. I hope to be back soon.

2nd visit for us so straight to the chase.Arancini: Flavor was really good. Was cooked to just crispy outside but not quite enough. Served luke warm. Marinara sauce was very good.Give this dish a C+ (would be a solid B+ were it not for the luke warm presentation)Kale salad: Lots of Spaghetti squash and some butternut squash, baby spinach salad mix, candied pecans, feta cheese, pomegranate seeds. BUT, No Kale, which should be in a salad with Kale in the name. The salad was tasty but given the mislabeling, Dish gets a grade of C Ceasar salad with anchovies: Decent version. cheese was kind of bland, but anchovies were good. Had cherry tomatoes which were a strange addition This salad gets a grade of B Lobster risotto: Risotto was a bit dry and had a strong cheese flavor as in Macaroni and cheese. Came with jumbo shrimp which were good, Scallops not so good, strong ammonia smell. Would be hard not to smell them in the kitchen before dish was made so I have to believe they served bad scallops on purpose. Small specs of lobster.Dish gets a D- Orichette with Octopus, shrimp, smoked mirepoix: base was a rich marinara sauce. There were small pieces of carrot but most of the "mire" of the "poix" seemed to be missing, I.E no celery or onion I could find. Other than that, Octopus was excellent, Shrimp was good. Dish gets a B+ Grade. Really want to like this place but for the prices, every dish should shine. If my child brought home a report card with these grades, I would not be upset but I would not be happy either. If my child brought home these grades from a premier private school. I would be ashamed I spent that much money for the results. Kind of how I feel about this meal. Being honest, Hope the owners read this and make the required adjustments. Otherwise this school gets shut down and used for a community center. We eat out a lot, will monitor other reviews to decide whether to give this another chance.

My book club likes to have a nice Italian dinner once a year, and I love the charm of downtown Versailles, so Vallozzi's was a welcome departure from the norm. It was the first visit for all 8 of us.The space is outfitted beautifully, but very dimly lit, as you'll see from my attempted food photos. We were seated in a room adjacent to what I'd consider the 'main' restaurant, down a hall that passes through a server station; it felt disjointed. This dining room was clearly the main artery to the kitchen, as the doors never stopped swinging open and shut, and foot traffic was constant. And strangely, there was either a cold food assembly or dessert station in the corner of the room, where again, an employee was working non-stop, and plated dishes were being set out for pick up right next to a table of diners. I kept hoping no one at that table sneezed.The bread and whipped ricotta (I'm guessing?) with herbs and olive oil were a delightful prelude to the meal, but I think we all indulged a bit too much. Everyone had overwhelmingly positive things to say about their cocktails and entrees. If anything, a few dishes needed more salt and one (the pizza) was thought to be too sweet, but the portions were fair and nearly everyone needed a to-go box. I opted for the manicotti, which was somehow rich and yet lacking in flavor, surprising considering the menu description. It wasn't bad, but I would try something different next time. I thought the lasagna Tuesday deal was probably one of the best values on the menu, as it came with a salad and no other pasta dish does.Despite being painfully full, several of us couldn't help but order dessert. For me, it was the Banana Pudding Tiramisu and that was the star of the show (and the envy of the table). The combination of pudding, rum soaked lady fingers, and bruleed bananas was DIVINE. I did wonder why it was served cold, but I didn't dwell long on that thought as I inhaled every bite.Our server was clearly busy and yet incredibly attentive, giving great suggestions when asked.While this wasn't a perfect experience, it was pretty darn close and I definitely want to go back with my husband and try another entree! And a glass of wine, when I'm less pregnant.

This place fills the missing Italian spot I've been wanting / needing. The staff is so friendly and well-versed in the menu. The menu seemed to be well rounded with several options, the hardest thing was making the decision on what to get.We started with appetizers...and who doesn't like rissotto in a ball and deep fried! It was a really great rissotto with a red sauce. The zucchini wasn't my favorite only because I really like thinner cut when fried.The salads were a good Italian salad, I don't know why but when I eat pasta / Italian I always want a salad. The salads definitely hit the spot before I stuffed myself with carbs.The pastas on all three dishes were amazing, they were definitely homemade and cooked al a dente! I could probably eat just a whole bowl of the spaghetti noodles just plain! The star dish was the bolognese and the chicken Marsala chicken was perfectly cooked full of flavor! We had dessert too but we took it to go and I forgot to take a picture. Overall I'll be back and will keep trying new things but will always get a pasta for how amazing it is!

We went to Vallozzi's for an early Saturday lunch to celebrate my moms birthday. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. They had great food and drink recommendations! and the food was delicious! We had a reservation but I do not believe we needed one since it wasn't very busy. Would recommend a reservation for dinner though! Didn't get a picture of our food, but would recommend the Arancini (delicious fried risotto), gnocchi, and salmon!

I'm a little conflicted on how many stars to give; but, I'm just going with my gut and giving it a 4. I was so excited to eat at Vallozzi's in Versailles. This review is based on my palate and everyone has their own so read this, and make the decisions that are best for you. I know that I would appreciate honesty when it comes to what I'm paying for. Let me start off by saying I love the location and ambiance of this restaurant. It is absolutely beautiful. I will say if you have reservations at 5 don't get there any earlier than 5 because the doors weren't unlocked until five and when you're standing out in the cold locked out that sucks!!!! There is some parking that is shared with the other businesses; however, they do offer complimentary valet parking if that's your style. The service was. 10/10. The hostess was friendly and prompt. Our server was amazing. She was so patient with us because there are so many different pastas I didn't recognize some of them and had to look them up. She was amazing and treated us wonderfully. So I'm gonna start with the bad. My entree the Roasted Beet & Goat Cheese Caramelle literally tasted like sweet pasta. I felt like Buddy on Elf... ya know the scene where he's putting maple syrup on spaghetti. The menu stated that it was the Caramelle which are pasta twisted like a wrapped candy filled with beet and goat cheese served with fennel, saffron butter and mint. It was so sweet. I made myself eat two and had to stop. Secondly, my daughter ordered the Roasted Pork Agnollotti with black garlic & truffle cream. Y'all it was sweet as heck. Idk if they accidentally put sugar in versus salt. They both were very sweet dishes. Not a fan at all. Now the wonderful things!!!!!! Can you say focaccia with the mosta? Their fresh focaccia with whipped ricotta drizzled with olive oil is so good. It was pillowy and salty. We ordered an extra plate of it. My son and his girlfriend ordered the Chicken Parmesan which was so delicious. My daughter and I both tried some of theirs and it was very very good! We decided to share a dessert and chose the Chocolate Cake with sweet potato mousse. Honey this cake was so good and it wasn't overly sweet. You could taste the decadent chocolate and silky ganache; but, it didn't feel like your stomach hurt from all the sugar. I could've just ate the actual cake part and nothing else. It was divine. So all in all I enjoyed Vallozzi's. I will mostly definitely go back. I think the two items we chose just weren't suited for our taste. It might be great for you. Just know that those two dishes are sweet, sweet, sweet. Enjoy every bite of life y'all.

I went here with a group from my office for a bit of an early Christmas lunch celebration. The ambiance was great, the restaurant was clean and had a nice cozy vibe. I got the spaghetti with meatballs and the sauce was ok, tho I am more partial to a sweeter sauce so that could absolutely be just me. The meatballs were really good and the pasta seemed fresh. My coworkers seemed to really enjoy their meals and it all looked delicious. The only thing that was kind of a bummer was there was no bread with the meal but that is absolutely my preference because I am a bread fiend. A normal person would probably not miss it.

My wife and I joined another couple for dinner on a recent Saturday evening looking forward to the top notch experience we had read and heard about. We did not have that experience. It wasn't a total bust, but it strayed from top notch at critical points. The good: free valet parking, a beautiful and comfortable space, friendly and welcoming staff all around, a menu with so many options that it's hard to choose, extensive wine list, cocktails and beer. We got the calamari and the arancini starters and both were prepared and served hot and delicious. Warm focaccia bread with whipped ricotta and olive oil was served, I always eat too much when the bread is good!The bad: here's where it went south... the Entrees. Two of us got the Papardelle Bolognese, one got the filet, and one got the Seafood Ziti. The Bolognese was so salty that neither of us could eat it. My fiend sent hers back after the first bite. I tried to power thru with the addition of some ricotta to soften the salt, but gave up after a few more bites. The steak was overly salty, as well, but he finished it. The Ziti was fine but far from a standout. They offered to make us new dishes but at that point in the evening, we'd had apps and bread and disappointment so we declined. They did take half the price of the bolognese off each couple's bill and comped our dessert. So they did what they could to make it up and were very apologetic. The tiramisu was ok, but lemony in flavor , which I don't expect in this dessert and no lemon component is listed on the menu. And it was overly moist... runny. All in all a mediocre dining experience. After 6 months plus, I can't grant them the "well, they're new" card. Perhaps a bad night or a mistake with the bolognese prep? I might try them again, but it's a 30-40 minute drive for us, so.... I can't say for sure. Consistency is key, especially at these prices. I hope they get there. They've got a lot going for them. But the entrees have to be winners every time.

Another phenomenal experience at my favorite restaurant. I got the half chicken tonight. It was done perfectly. Octopus for appetizer was so good. Loved the bread with whipped ricotta and olive oil. Always worth the trip. Great service and lighting too.
