Vinnie's Neighborhood Italian

Vinnie's Neighborhood Italian Rated as a Top 10 Restaurant in the United States by Tripadvisor. Voted #1 Best Italian in Asheville
for over a decade! Vinnie’s is casual and family friendly.

Vinnie’s features “Old School” neighborhood Italian food reminiscent of Brooklyn, the Bronx and the North End of Boston. The aromas of home cooked Italian food along with the rhythmic sounds of Martinis being shaken to chilling perfection sets the tone for a night of fun and laughter.

One of our favorite things we’ve done this year has been recognizing local heroes.

Through our Local Hero Dinner Giveaway, we’ve had the honor of treating a veteran and a nurse to a complimentary dinner for four at Vinnie’s. We’d love to celebrate another member of our community who’s making a difference.

Some things you just don’t rush. Gnocchi is one of them.

Every Wednesday, our kitchen staff rolls up their sleeves and make it in-house by hand, and rolled fresh every single time. Amore included, no extra charge.

That’s just how Vinnie’s does it.
See you Wednesday. 🤌❤️

Meet Josh. ❤️✨

If you’ve been to Vinnie’s South, you already know him. And if you know him, you love him.

Four and a half years in as a server, Josh has grown with this restaurant and wouldn’t have it any other way. He came for the food, stayed for the regulars, and by now he’s part of the famiglia.

New Jersey roots, Asheville heart. Off the clock, he’s chasing music festivals, kayaking, and spending time with his Boston Terrier, Ace.

Favorite dish: the gnocchi with basil pesto. We respect it.

Thank you, Josh, for everything you do. We’re so happy to have you as part of the Vinnie’s team.

Next time you’re in, say hi! 🍝

New on the menu and already feeling like a classic! 🤌❤️

Veal Vodka Parmesan: breaded veal, vodka sauce, melted mozzarella, crisped soppressata, all served over Vinnie’s house-made penne alla vodka.

This one’s going to be hard to stop thinking about.
Come see what the fuss is about.
