Vim’s is one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in California. My server Eric was so attentive and caring, he even called us before our reservation to ask for the birthday persons name and put it on the menu! He consistently checked in to make sure we were doing good and it really felt like he cared about us. The entrees, probably the best entrees I’ve had in a very long time, the pork tenderloin was so moist and cooked to perfection, the whole plate was. Every bite I took I couldn’t get enough of it. The pasta was right there with the pork tenderloin, everything was just amazing. Not to be repetitive, but the dessert was delicious, the strawberry churro was just perfect and the dark chocolate caramel filled cupcake just melted in my mouth. it wasn’t even on the menu, and they threw it in for free for my birthday, I couldn’t ask for better food or service for my birthday dinner. Vim’s is a top competitor for any restaurant in California with great portions, top of the line entrees and desserts, and amazing service. I’m willing to visit Santa Cruz again just for their food. Highly recommend this place!

My fiancee and I love this place! Chef Jess is phenomenal, and the staff is always super friendly. On our last visit, my fiancee and I actually proposed to each other. We cannot recommend Vim highly enough!!
