Dozen baked clams, clam with linguine was all I needed to make a Saturday exciting. Our boy Nick was a superb server. Made dining that much enjoyable.

Our office go to lunch spot when craving pasta for lunch. The portion size is big enough for two people and we usually have lunch for two days. My go to is the chicken parm with penne and the medium sauce. It's the perfect balance of heat and sweet. I once made the mistake and the hot sauce and boy was it hot. I handle a good amount of spice but I was sweating after two bites. The restaurant is always busy on the weekends. The staff is very friendly and i definitely recommend stopping in.

Always a good time in Vincent's Clam bar. Food never disappoints. Portions are always a great value and shareable regardless of your appetite. My friends and I like coming here as a group to share a bunch of dishes to eat a large variety of plates. For us, it's always about the sauce. This visit, I came with the family and we were starving so we over ordered but figured we could take the leftovers home so didn't care. The appetizers we shared: - mini rice balls with vodka sauce, I'm telling you this sauce!! Creamy but not too thick. So good. The rice balls have cheese pull and then some. Ha ha - clams on a half shell - small Little Neck clams, well cleaned and fresh. Paired with horseradish and cocktail sauce, it was a very refreshing starter for the summer. Hit the spot. - kiddos both wanted lobster bisque, full order. Last time I was here, we tried the small tasting, it was literally an espresso cup sized tasting so better off getting the full serving. It's a rich bisque so you'd want to eat the larger bowl anyway. Believe me. For our entrees: - summer special: snapper abruzzo was a gnocchi pasta with red snapper filet, large shrimp, cherry tomatoes and broccoli rabe. It was served with a lemon based garlic sauce. A full plate and very flavorful. - lasagne - large plate of melted cheese per the photo, with layers of meat and noodles. Very filling. I couldn't finish. - baked ziti, heaping plate of ziti ... Heaping. I couldn't see the meatballs but the description says mini meatballs in this dish. - penne a la vodka - best sauce of all the pasta dishes and another large portion of penne. This is a favorite, we order it every visit. Too full for dessert this time but I kid you not, the desserts here are just as big! The brownies we spotted are all as big as the palm of your hand and then some. Same with the cakes and other confections. They literally fill a large wine glass. Speaking of, we ordered lemonade and blueberry lemonade which were served in goblet sized glasses. I shared it with my hubby and barely finished. Recommend the muddled blueberry lemonade. It was a cool shade of blue. Reservations are suggested. They get pretty busy even on a Tuesday night. Live band plays on Tuesday's as well.

I always say how the food here is my favorite. And, if I was on my death bed, this would be my last meal. But, I must say how this place is run is equally impressive. The symphony in which all these employees work together is fun to watch. Our entrees were at our table in less than five minutes. To get this level of quality food, that quick, is crazy. All of the managers are great, but Rob stopped at our table several times to check on us, like he did at many of the tables. He took the time to talk to us, not just about the food, but also the Mets. He was kind and attentive. Great guy!!!

The food at Vincent's is not only delicious, the portions are huge. Vincent's is a fan favorite in our house. My husband loves the chicken cutlet parm over linguine, my son's favorite is their penne alla vodka and I'm always torn between the linguine with white clam sauce or the frutti di mare. We went on Tuesday to celebrate my husband's bday. If you happen to have dinner on a Tuesday night, know that there's a live singer and band so expect the restaurant to be louder than usual. I'm giving this review 4 stars instead of 5, in which they would definitely get for food, because I had a reservation for 7:30 but didn't get seated till 8:15. I did run late and called the restaurant at 7:20 to tell them I was running 10 mins late but I'd be there by 7:40 (which I was). I guess they were having a real busy night because there were families around me who got there on time for their 7:30 reservations who were still waiting after we got our table. All in all, wishing Vincent's Clam Bar continued success!!

This sh*t is so freaking good, I would give my first born child to Vincent if it meant I could have a plate of his penne alla vodka and that big a*s piece of bread I'm supposed to share with my family but it's all mine. They can get their own bread and the pasta is mine too.

Okay, I have left reviews for Vincent's Clam Bar twice before over the years, when taking home this exact meal. The first one was glowing because the food was excellent, and I enjoyed it so much, while the second one was lackluster because I was disappointed in the drop off in quality and taste. Let's see how tonight's tiebreaking meal went: My calamari with linguine with marinara and sweet mild sauce on the side was WONDERFUL tonight. I am so glad that I gave this place another chance. And most importantly the mini loaf of Italian bread was fresh and delish. Mangia!!

I recently visited Vincent's Clam Bar with two of my friends on a Wednesday afternoon, and we were blown away by the experience! Despite the packed restaurant, we were seated promptly, which was impressive. The lunch menu offered many great options at unbeatable prices. We each got separate dishes with some appetizers to split, and the portions were generous, leaving us with plenty of leftovers to take home. My favorite was the spicy sauce. If you dare to try it, it adds an incredible kick to their pasta or chicken cutlet. The service was great, friendly, and attentive. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, making it perfect for a lunch with friends. Overall, Vincent's Clam Bar has earned a spot on my favorite restaurants list. Will definitely return and try more of their delicious food. Enjoy!

Title: Fantastic Experience Celebrating Husband's 40th Birthday at Vincent's Clam Bar I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my husband's 40th birthday at Vincent's Clam Bar and I must say, it was an amazing experience from start to finish! To begin with, reserving a table a week in advance was a breeze. I even had to call in to let them know we would be running late, and they were incredibly accommodating and understanding. Upon arrival, I presented the staff with a cake and cupcakes for my husband's special day, and they were more than happy to accommodate our request to bring them out after our meal. We started our meal with some appetizers, including the famous jumbo garlic knot which was absolutely delicious, and the mozzarella sticks which were just right. Our main courses included pepperoni pizza, French fries, chicken parm, fettuccine alfredo, penne a la vodka with grilled shrimps - and everything was fantastic! The staff went above and beyond by singing Happy Birthday to my husband and even took the time to cut the cake for us. We also gifted some of the staff cupcakes and the restaurant manager Danny a piece of cake, which they truly appreciated. One of the floor managers, who we had a blast with and discovered was from the Bronx like us, added an extra touch of fun to the evening. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant was fantastic, and the experience was truly unforgettable. We will definitely be celebrating here again in the future! A big shoutout to our amazing waiter Chris for his exceptional service - he did a heck of a job! Thank you, Vincent's Clam Bar, for making my husband's birthday celebration so special. We can't wait to return! #VincentClamBar #BirthdayCelebration #AmazingExperience #GreatFood #OutstandingService #ReturningCustomers
