Though it had been there for years I didn't discover the Cafe Vico until I celebrated my 19th Leap Year in
2012 when I had a list of restaurants that I hadn't eaten in and wanted
to visit. I reviewed it back then for yelp giving it 5 stars.
This
past June I got an email that the Cafe Vico was going to offer 2-4-1
lunches and Allen and I have been going there every Thursday since June
20--as of last Thursday, October 31, we have been there 20 times and
have had ordered 40 different lunches.
You
can check out their lunch and dinner menu at
https://cafevicorestaurant.com/ plus every week they offered us 2
specials. As of this past Thursday I have had only one less than
excellent meal and that was an Osso Bocca taht was a bit too salty but
aside from that all the lunches were/are top drawer. They do serve a top
of the line lasagna and all their pasta dishes melt in your mouth.
This
past Thursday I had Talipia francese that was served on a green pasta,
the dish being sweet and tart at the same time. Allen had the Cappalini
Scampi which he really likes though I prefer the Linguini ala Pescatore
with shrimp, scallops and calamari in spicy tomato sauce though I
usually have it made in garlic and oil.
We
were sort of celebrating our last lunch and the end of summer until we
were leaving when I noticed on the board "2-4-1 lunch until November
30"! LOOKS LIKE SUMMER ISN'T OVER YET!!!!!
