   Not busy but service was slow. Menu selection was small and napkin was filthy.

   Our 37th wedding anniversary and newly retired. Lots to celebrate. A very special dinner at a very special restaurant for just such an occasion is what Vintana means to us. If you haven’t tried this lovely place, you’re missing out. Can’t wait to be back! Thank you, Vintana, and all who work there for being here for us.

   Never a poor experience at Vintana. Had a great table, great service, amazing food and perfect environment to catch up with long-time colleagues and friends. Great place for a holiday get-together!

   Vintana’s food is pure joy for the palate. We enjoyed an incredible meal to celebrate my mother’s 90th birthday. We knew we’d be paying a lot of money - over $300 for the four of us. And accompanying this grand price, we expected just a little better service. It took too long for our appetizer and wine to be served. We wondered if we’d been forgotten. The meal was excellent, but when it came time to order dessert we waited over 30 minutes for our waiter to come back. When he returned, he brought a special cake for my mother, but had neglected to take the order for dessert for the rest of us. So she sat and waited while our dessert was prepared so she could eat hers with us. We thought they should have taken our dessert order and brought them all at the same time. Our dessert finally came, and it was heavenly, but we really wanted coffee with it. They’d run out and had to brew some more. By the time we got our coffee, we’d finished our dessert. We rarely go to Vintana because it’s so pricey, but my mother loved and appreciated her meal and the evening out that we gave her.

   Excellent food and service! I’d been there for lunch before and loved it so decided to go for dinner. The dinner menu had many different offerings but was just as outstanding.

   Pleasantly surprised!! CRG restaurants are a bit banal but I thought for being in Escondido that this is a winner of a spot in an otherwise very dull dining area. Atmosphere, service and food all great, would go back.

   Attended on 12/17/2024. Attention to detail and Incredible service made this a great night. On Open Table, I listed what package I wanted and asked for a table near a window in the notes field and when I checked in they stated my requests and was working on them. Service was spectacular, The wait staff took their time ensuring our party had an understand of each item on the menu. The only bummer is when the Manager or someone like that stopped a busser right in our view and began to go over some issue with him. In my mind you do that in the kitchen and not in view of customers. Overall, the date night menu is a great value, oh, Avoid the Au Gratin potatoes. They made it into a loaf and it was cool. Au Gratin should have a sauce and a crispy top layer. Someone took a twist on it and no one wanted to tell them it was not a good idea. You now know.

   We cannot recommend Vintana. We had to wait for our table even though we had a reservation. We had to ask for our food, it arrived warm but on a hot plate. The garlic mash has no garlic and was lumpy (sandbagged). We had to ask for dessert to go and then waited again for 15 mins. Choices of holidays drinks were sad.
