Four of us went to dinner and enjoyed the food and the service . I wear hearing aids and the LOUD background noise made it a lot less enjoyable
On of the best Italian Restaurant in Massachusetts.
Always, always! A great place for authentic Italian cuisine. Service is great and Maria is a terrific hostess.Wines are fantastic and priced accordingly. Vico always makes a point to come out from kitchen, even when busy to chat and ask about the food/wine etc.Can't wait to return!
Ok Ill give it to this place, its good, really good, for the suburbs. Don't expect North End Italian anywhere around Dedham, Norwood or other suburban areas. However, this is as close to the ambiance and homey cooking you will find anywhere around here.This place sits on the backside of the sportsman club near the common in downtown Norwood, which is starting to come around but looks like its stuck in a Norman Rockwell 1950's postcard. The place is tiny, so I would recommend calling for a reservation since it gets packed and they only take reservations the old fashioned way, by phone. Its an old school interior, nothing fancy, but looks like a hole in the wall place which adds to the ambiance.Its run by a family, father chef, mother hostess and front of house and daughter waitstaff. Weekends I would assume there is a guy walking around singing opera for peoples birthdays which was funny. The menu is collection of all sorts of Italian specialities, the norms and others like seafood dishes. The wine list is pretty impressive, full of all sorts of Italian wines straight from Italy. The appetizers we ordered were decent, Burrata Caprese very tasty, hit the spot, fresh. The entrees, came out made to order, the Veal Saltimbocca was pretty good, good taste, not over the top, but had a decent taste, could of used more spice, but I liked it. Farfalle Boscaiola was ok, again needed more spice but not bad. Desserts, Tiramisu was excellent, but the Nutella Creme Brule was a mess and not settled right. Prices were decent for the portions etc. and in all not a bad meal, for the suburbs.

Want to feel like you've been invited into a family's home in Italy? Then head to Vico’s. Family warmth, ambience and tasty food. Arancini are tender and tasty - not like what you have in other restaurants. Bucatini carbonara delicious. Fettucine with shrimp and asparagus a welcome feast! Quartet of mini cannolis a hit!
Their Caesar salad is impeccable. Their gnocchi is like literal clouds. All the food is amazing, and tastes incredible. You'd never expect it from the outside
Enjoyed a meal with my in-laws after hearing of Vico for many years. Vico's menu and presentations are a mix of classic and updated Italian, superb dining experience. Thank you.
Great food, great service. Prices were very reasonable. Quaint little place in downtown Norwood, easy to get to. Decent sized public parking lot across the street.
Vico is like being back in Italy - the absolute best authentic Italian food in the area!!! Vincenzo is amazing!!!!
