At The Vineyards Trattoria and Pizzeria, chefs execute a playbook of distinctly Italian recipes that yield peppercorn-encrusted steaks, hand-tossed pizzas, and seafood and pasta dishes slathered in tomato and wine-butter sauces. While loading their forks with penne ala vodka, diners can complement bites with sips from the expansive wine list, which includes red and white wines from both Europe and America. The restaurant’s crispy pizzas strictly abide by the rigid standards of the Associazione Vera Pizza Italianas, which demands hand-pressed dough, pizza sauce made with tomatoes imported from Italy, and a permission slip signed by the Italian government.

While they wait for their tables, guests can pass the time at the bar before taking their seats amid the dining room's parchment-colored walls and portraits of rustic Italian scenery. The Vineyards' catering services provision wedding receptions, birthday feasts, and corporate parties with tasty plates of baked ziti, chicken parmigiana, and baked eggplant.
