The space is small, so I recommend making a reservation, as it gets quite busy and they only take reservations the old-fashioned way—by phone. The decor is old-school with no frills, giving it a cozy, hole-in-the-wall atmosphere that adds to its charm. It’s a family-run establishment, with the father as the chef, the mother as the hostess, and the daughter waiting tables. On weekends, there's a charming touch where a gentleman serenades guests with opera for birthday celebrations, which is quite amusing.
The menu features a variety of Italian specialties, including some seafood dishes. The wine list is impressive, showcasing a wide range of Italian wines sourced directly from Italy. The app...
One of the best experiences we've had dining out! This family-run business had everything and more than we could imagine. The service was by far superior, and the flavors of all the dishes we tried were amazing (Special Rice Ball App, Portabello App, Eggplant App, Bolognese Entree, Farfalle Entree, and Carbonara Entree)!! I highly recommend their Homemade Tiramisu, it just melts in your mouth! Can't wait to return and try the rest of the menu items they offer!
I've lived here in Norwood for over 10 years and didn't know about this place. Had the fig prosciutto appetizer and the Beat salad for an appetizer and while those were good, they couldn't compared to the farfalle dish with truffle oil, I had for a main. Our service was great, the atmosphere nice and cozy, but keep in mind that you should make a reservation because from what I've been told it gets busy and you might have to wait over an hour.
We live on the Cape, and some friends of ours are in Westford, so I chose Vico’s as a meeting point since it's roughly halfway for both of us. What a delightful surprise! The food was exceptional, and the service was the best we've experienced in years! The dishes were small but incredibly delicious. Everything we tried was absolutely scrumptious, and we’re more than willing to make that hour-long drive to eat there again!

The one problem with the restaurant is the noise level. The food was good and the service was excellent, but it’s difficult to enjoy your meal, when the noise level is so high . You have to talk very loudly to the people you’re with, and the background noise is very distracting. Really takes away from the dining experience. Not sure I’d come back. Perhaps it is quieter during the week.
Absolutely, without a doubt! This is an amazing spot for genuine Italian cuisine. The service is excellent, and Maria is a wonderful hostess. The wines are fantastic and surprisingly affordable. Vico always makes it a point to come out of the kitchen, even when he's busy, to chat and inquire about the food and overall experience. I can't wait to return!
Calamari was a little underdone, and the pink aioli it came with was a little off putting, but the flavors were good. Carbonara was excellent. Lava cake was good too. Cannoli wasn't my favorite, I think there was lemon in the ricotta which I didn't like, but that is a personal preference. Will likely go back!
The best Italian. A wonderful family-run restaurant with great nightly specialties. Try the minestrone, calf and leave room for dessert. Excellent wine list and now serves cocktails.

Nice family restaurant with great food. Went here for dinner and everything was really good. Wish I knew this place was here sooner! I will definitely go back.
One of the best Italian meals in all of New England. Seriously fantastic. The owners Maria and Vincenzo are absolutely delightful.
