   Our food was not good. The calamari was over cooked and tepid. The hamburgers were mediocre, served with cold and hard French fries. The half chicken was barely a quarter of a chicken - smallest portion ever. Service was very slow. A disappointment for sure.

   My husband didn’t like the fish and chips. My sister’s pastrami was too fatty and needed more lean meat. I loved the steak frites but French fries were hard. Too much screaming about the football game from other patrons and was jarring. We prefer a more relaxed restaurant setting. If we come back, going out on the patio if it’s a nice weather evening might be a better idea.

   The best crispy cauliflower & Brussel sprout salad around! Outdoor seating & service is also wonderful. Just a great place to eat time & time again.

   The Vig is a fun neighborhood restaurant. We've been there many times and have had good service and good food. Seeing the new setup on the outdoor turf was a little shocking. There were so many chairs and tables set up outside, it felt like a giant wedding would take place with 100 people. It has lost its cozy, private, calm vibe. However, our server was wonderful.

   Was disappointed in the mac and cheese. It used to be very creamy. This time was very dry. Noble pretzel, great. Grilled wings used to be very good. This time, they were blah. Gilled chicken chopped salad was tasteless. Ruben was excellent. Perhaps it was just an off night. The butterscotch bread pudding, which used to be stunning, for some reason, has had has poppy seeds for a few years. Why?
