    Robbie’s ribs were tasty but dry. They have been much better in the past.

    With a reservation, we were seated at the worse table in the place, directly across from the front door and next to the bathrooms. Nonstop traffic the whole time. Server was excellent- we told him we were in a hurry (due to the miserable table) and he cooperated. We were in and out in less than 1 hour. Food was good. Go to Carlsbad location instead - ambiance is much better.

    This is our favorite Vigilucci's Restaurant even though we live in Oceanside. The piano bar and the interior design is far above the other two locations. Also, the food is fork and knives above the other locations.

    It was a wonderful celebration dinner for my daughter‘s birthday. From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect. The wait staff was professional, friendly and attentive, the food came out quickly and was presented beautifully. The pianist entertained us with his beautiful music and sang happy birthday to my daughter as the candle was lit on her birthday dessert. It was a memorable evening, and I would come back for a celebration dinner at Vigilucci‘s Trattoria Italiana again and again.

    Vigilucci’s is always a delight. I’ve never had anything less than a wonderful meal. Our service is always amazing, the food is made with care, always fresh, and the portions are generous. I’ve been visiting all three Vigilucci’s locations for a couple of years now, and the Trattoria in Leucadia is my favorite of the three.

    As usual, our "Date Night" was fantastic! Everything about it was excellent. Jesse our waiter was GREAT (as usual) and the food and cocktails were top shelf. This has become one of our favorite local restaurants as we have now been here many times. IT HAS NEVER DISAPPOINTED US. WELL DONE, BRAVO!

    Had a delicious, quiet dinner with a friend. Service was prompt but unobtrusive. Food was the right temp and flavorful, lots of options. I loved the piano music and singer, great song choices and pleasant level, able to talk over the music.
