Vescovo came highly recommended by a neighbor so I visited their website to view a menu then called to book a reservation for the following Tuesday. The service was friendly and prompt. We were seated with a view of the kitchen which was extremely clean and efficient. Started with Calamari which was tender and lightly sauteed. Shared two entrees, the scallops and spinach and the shrimp scampi. The scallops were sweet, perfectly prepared and seasoned, and the flash fried spinach was a surprising and tasty side. The U10 shrimp scampi was hands down the best I’ve ever had. The pasta and cream sauce was perfection. The portions were substantial and could easily be shared if you like to order several dishes to try. I’d highly recommend Vescovo if you enjoy a fine dining experience. You’ll find fresh high quality ingredients, nice ambience, nice wine selections and professional servers. I’ll definitely return.

What an amazing GREAT, LITTLE restaurant. If you are hungry this is the place for a great meal, If you are ready for a culinary adventure... these guys will blow you away! Our first time in... Just a little off the beaten path, in what we were told was called the Lumber district we walked into the Bishop's domain. The first thing we noticed was the warm, playful atmosphere... this is obviously a restaurant where the locals feel at home. Busy night, but the bar was right there, and the staff and patrons made us feel right at home. Waiting for our table was fun, as we discovered the cocktail menu... loaded with great, unique concoctions, all with their own stories, as we were introduced to the neighborhood. The menu is creative and the dishes finished to perfection. Here are people at work who UNDERSTAND and LOVE their CRAFT! Gorgonzola Cream Gnocchi, Filet Meatballs, Artichokes, Smoked Kurobuta Pork Belly & Scallops... YES PLEASE! You can taste the playfulness and pride; local ingredients, unique combination, perfect execution and you can expect a big grin and smile when you tell chef Trey you appreciate his work. If you can get to Brevard, visit this gem, and enjoy the creativity, the people and don't miss the impressive wine list.

Always a great meal. Delicious Calamari app..sauted or fried. I like sauted in sauce, no breading . Reminds me of a NY dish. Great salads. I had the fresh beets. It's in shredded pistachio nuts. It's really good. I went with the fish of the day. Excellent choice. My favorite restaurant in the area.

You walk in and you get an instant 'cozy', personal feeling....everytime! Highly recommend a reservation as this is really small and that adds to the experience. Food selection is diverse and outstanding. The 'currently' all-girl waitstaff couldn't be more helpful and pleasing. We were fortunate to get Ali's station the times we went.

Holy amazing! This hidden gem was fantastic. We were only going for appetizers, but after the appetizer we realized we wanted the whole experience. This was so worth it. The menu is smaller, but it’s nice that they had specials. The gnocchi were incredible...”like clouds in your mouth”. The scallops melted in my mouth and the sauce got wiped up with the fantastic bread and oil. This one is not to be missed. The drink menu was also great. Cheers

Amazing meal. Good quality over the top. Small menu but they were willing to make some adjustments for me so I could eat what I was craving. The pasta and veggies (I substituted linguine for the GF) was amazing. The beet salad, just order it. Very small place. We arrived before 6 but without a reservation we had to eat at the bar but Christina was delightful and cared for us well. Amazing bourbon selection.

Wonderful evening with family and friends. Small but delicious menu. We sampled as many dishes as possible. Filet meatballs in vodka sauce, Gnocchi with gorganzola cream, fried artichokes and we all split the ribeye for appetizers. Beet salad, Sacchettoni, blackened scallops, double cut pork chop and the chicken and artichoke picatta. All were amazing and even though we had no room for dessert we all sampled the trio, not a bite left. Charming atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and fantastic food. I will come from Nashville again just to eat here!
