“ Delicious! Cute, quaint restaurant. Everything we ordered was delicious! The staff were lovely start to finish. They kept the table cleared and water filled. Go, enjoy!! ”
“ I love Vaso's Mediterranean Bistro. It's nice to find a great restaurant in this section of King Street. It's small, but warm and welcoming, with a great patio. Service can be a little slow, but is always good, even when I came with a big group, which included children. The Greek salad is fresh and delicious. Lamb kapama was fall-of-the-bone tender. I'm obsessed with the flaming cheese. Greek sampler is the perfect starter and the first entree I ever had here, the shrimp with artichoke pasta, remains one of my favorites. I love the Greek wine selection. I stopped in around Christmas to get a gift card and they had kourabeides, which I had to get and they were the best I've had in a long time. Not too dry but with the perfect crumble and very flavorful. The restroom is upstairs, so if you have accessibility needs, this may not be the right spot, which is too bad. Otherwise, I'm a huge fan of Vaso's and looking forward to returning. ”
“ Amazing service, beautiful restaurant and a very tasty food! Try the restaurant's in house made Tiramisu! ”
“ The staff was fine. The waiter didn't go over any specials or really give any feedback with recommendations. The food is why I give it 4 stars. My food was absolutely delicious. I believe everyone at our table devoured their plates. There is outdoor seating but it started to sprinkle so we sat upstairs. The ambiance was fine as well. Nothing that stood out or caught your eye. ”
“ Selecting the right place to celebrate a new high school graduate Vaso's Mediterranean Bistro was suggested. We thought it was the greek kitchen with the same name at first but found this one more appropriate. The food was really good according to everyone at the table. My eggplant parmesan was smothered in tasty marinara and I could have ate another portion but was satisfied. They didn't come by and offer fresh ground pepper or shredded cheese. The service was a little lacking and of course having a large group they automatically add gratuity. We were seated in the upper room which was empty. It was decorated beautifully and made a nice backdrop for group photos after the meal. ”
“ The food was amazing. Service was excellent. Ambiance wasn't too fancy upscale but clean and authentic. ”
