    This restaurant is beautiful on the inside with a really nice menu and bar. The margaritas were the best we have had in a very long time. Would highly recommend the shrimp and gnocchi dish. Will definitely be back!

    First visit to this location. We love the other restaurants owned by Rick Erwin, so we expected a great meal. We got just that. Priced well, a balanced wine list, comfortable space, nice team members...they took wonderful care of us. We will definitely be back. Kudos for another great restaurant in the Rick Erwin portfolio!

    The service was great, Carson was training but you would have thought he was a 5 year employee. The food was done well and was priced right.

    The food was not very good. We had had the shrimp gnocchi which was burnt and the Tuna dish which too was not very good. Loved the service, the atmosphere and the drinks were great. Unfortunately the food was not.

    We usually love the Vista, but this was an off night. The seared tuna was well done and I think they forgot the sauce as it was just a plate of cabbage. I was also told there’s no wine by the glass anymore just half bottles, but I think that was a mistake. We normally love this restaurant, so we’ll try it again I’m sure- it just didn’t come together this time.

    Food was amazing as always. The whipped goat cheese appetizer is to die for. The halibut is always a favorite. Very cozy setting and great service. Always a favorite of ours to eat at.
