Eating was very good, but they changed the menu so they are not able to pick up their appetizers. our waiter was very nice, but eating was slow in the trip.

The menu online and what was on offer was vastly different. We were supposed to get a chefs tasting of appetizers which was only side of greens and some bread. No ala carte options-pretty much a fixed menu to choose from. And on the pricier side.

Vai, an Italian restaurant, has recently undergone a transformation and shifted more towards Thai cuisine, a change that some diners found disappointing. Despite the shift, the restaurant still offers good service. However, a negative experience was reported by a diner who had a severe allergic reaction to garlic despite informing the restaurant in advance. On a more positive note, other diners found the food to be tasty, particularly recommending the Parmigiano veal. The restaurant received praise for its cozy atmosphere, accommodating service, and delicious dishes. A special fixed menu option was highlighted as a unique and superb dining experience for special occasions. In general, Vai was commended for its fresh ingredients, attention to detail, and the ability to cater to different occasions and group sizes. Overall, the restaurant received a mix of reviews ranging from disappointing experiences to outstanding meals, making it a place worth trying out for any type of dining occasion.

My favorite place on the Upper West Side! The food quality is exceptional; I've tried everything! From the tuna tartare to the burrata ravioli, the branzino with brown butter sauce, the short rib, and scallops—I could keep going... every dish is incredible! The atmosphere is also charming and intimate, making it perfect for a night out with friends or a romantic date.

Delicious food and friendly staff. The happy hour was a delightful surprise, offering three oysters with the purchase of a drink.

Absolutely outstanding! The Crab Spaghettini was delightful, and the Burrata Ravioli was simply heavenly. The restaurant has an intimate atmosphere, making it ideal for a dinner for two. We had a wonderful evening.

This is the place that mixes beautiful ambiance with exquisite dishes that are as pleasing to the eye as they're a sensuous feast to the palate. And on top of all that, they go out of their way to make special occasions truly special. Thank you, Chef Vincent Chirico and the Vai team for making my birthday night truly memorable on Nov. 2nd. Grazie mille.
