    Service was great, atmosphere was great, drinks were delish. We had a party of two. The apps and dessert were good, and my fiancée loved the chicken entree. I ordered the burger and it was pretty insignificant as I feel like it should have came with a sauce on it instead of packaged mayo/mustard, so wish I ordered something else. Otherwise, great experience

    Our experience at Vault was the best dining experience we’ve ever had! When I made the reservation, I wrote in the comments that we would be celebrating our 16 year wedding anniversary and that “if we could get a little bit of a nice table( as in against a wall) that I would be grateful. When we showed up they had the coziest, most intimate, private room waiting for us with Candles lit and everything! I was completely shocked. My wife could not have been more impressed! In 16 years we’ve never held back when it comes to dining out at 4-5 star restaurants for special occasions, this was the best dining experience we’ve ever had. The food was fantastic, but the experience really said it apart.

    Service was excellent. Unfortunately pork shanks were unavailable but the Steinhaus platter was a good substitute. The pork loin was very good. My wife had the sauerbraten and was disappointed that it was heavier on the sweet and lacking on the sour. Their beer selection was good for us and they had samplers to help my wife choose her beer.
