Once more we stepped in to the welcoming surroundings of Vito's to be greeted by Alfredo, the head waiter, who offered us a seat in the foyer while he took our drinks order at the bar and we sat relaxing while we considered our options for food.

As vegetarians we had a great selection to choose from. There is, as always, an exceptional variety of truly traditional vegetarian food, as well as a great variety of meat dishes for you carnivores out there.

For those of you who pay any attention, you may have noticed that my wife and I have reviewed several Italian restaurants, including La Scala in Millhouses, and Nonna's, both good, but simply don't match up to the brilliance of Vito's and his wine collection. What does it for me is a combination of things. The food is always exceptional; the service from Alfredo et al is by far and away the best in Sheffield, not pushy, but attentive, and KNOWLEDGEABLE - so few places have staff that know about their food and wine!

But let me tell you about the wine - which rivals the Old Vicarage for quality, and betters it in Italian style by a long way! I get wine from a wine broker - I collect and taste vintage wines, and let me tell you, I don't know where he is getting his selections from, but his fine wine list is without compare in Sheffield, and quite possibly in the north of England. To add to this, Vito has assured me he is expanding his selection soon to include some truly glorious northern Italian dessert wines, which are hard to find and really worth seeking out to taste (try them with the home made tiramisu or zabaglione (zabaione), you'll know exactly what I mean!).

If you do nothing else this year, make time to go to Vito's, one of the last truly Italian restaurants in Sheffield.

As our wedding was 10.00am we decided to entertain our wedding party of approximately 30 close friends and family by having a light luncheon prior to the main evening reception. This proved a momentous task in finding a suitable venue that could cater at lunch time for our specific requirements. On our initial enquiry with Vito's restaurant, the place sounded very promising and also offered a total flexible solution to cater for our very needs.

On meeting with Vito and his staff the professionalism and superb hospitality that was provided in the organising, planning and smooth running of our wedding luncheon was absolutely perfect. The expertise and skills of such helpful and enthusiastic staff along with the genuine friendly hospitality that each member provided is what made Vito's so very special.

The very idea of a light Italian luncheon on our wedding day proved a success beyond all expectations for both ourselves as a newly married couple and our friends and families alike. Many later praised both the standard of food and service along with the general restaurant's warm friendly and cosy atmosphere.

The helpful and enthusiastic approach of the staff was so very much appreciated by us and Vito's is a place that all Italian food lovers in Sheffield should feel proud of. Nobody could have done it better.

We will return!
