 Ummm ... Okay. Service is quick and friendly.  The food? Ummm ... They do have some pasta dishes with some veggies. I thought I ordered pasta emiliano - with red peppers and mushrooms. I did quite a few red pepper pieces, but no mushrooms. The sauce was rich. The pasta was rich. Not worth the calories. The bread was okay ... Wouldn't "order” it again.  Did I mention the server and hostess were super friendly? 

The Vig Fillmore

 The Vig Fillmore  Restaurantso 606 N 4th Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85003 $$$$  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was here for lunch May 31 about 2pm. They have indoor and outside seating. Free Wi-Fi.  I ordered Grilled Salmon - “quinoa, apple mostarda, bacon brussel sprouts, black pepper red wine reduction“. Delicious. I hate it when I order salmon and it is like they throw a salmon on the grill with some lemon and salt and call it good enough.  I can do that at home for a whole lot cheaper, but this was delicious, the apple mostarde (a little sweet and very little spicy) was GREAT. I may have to try that at home   The lunch menu is varied - salads, sandwiches (including burgers), tacos, soups and mail dishes. And shareables, lots of shareables.  There is a large outdoor bar, with, of course, four televisions. Draft beers are $7, canned beer is $5-$7. Wine is $10-$25 for 7 oz and $32 - $120 for bottle. Vignature cocktails are $13   The seating is okay, not horrendous, but not very comfortable either.  Mid afternoon
