Vincent Restaurant - BARTON

Checked out Vincent tonight with the tasting menu. Delicious, surprising flavours. Price point appropriate at $70/pax. An interesting dining room, minimalist, but doesn't suffer noise-wise from the lack of soft furnishings a la 86. Pleasant warm service ready with suggestions about pairing wine with the food. Wine prices not exorbitant. Will definitely be back.

We booked this restaurant mainly because it was an easy walk from our hotel and the menu is the food we like to eat. Really enjoyed the concept of communal bar type seating and eating. Waitress was fantastic explaining the menu, All the food we had was amazing - particularly the scallops, barramundi and pork belly. The wine we had by the glass that was recommended was a very good match for our food. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Highly recommend and will certainly visit again when in Canberra.

First thing that hits you as you walk in is the black fi tout and communal dining set up. Thankfully the lighting is strategically placed to ensure you are not ordering or eating in the dark.Typical modern fit out with no sound deadening surfaces.We arrived at 7.30pm on a Saturday evening, very busy and really noisy. The wine list is quite small (all by the glass 11 whites and 10 reds ) very well priced and only one local wine listed the rest from overseas (disappointing )The food menu again is small and set up for sharing .Staff were welcoming and friendlyThe saving grace for me was the quality and plating of the food. Absolutely beautiful , great flavours and was savoured by both of us .Would we return? Maybe for lunch.

This new restaurant is worth a visit. The seating arrangements are different but the interaction with staff is very good. Most dishes are share and this made for a relaxed meal. Dish sizes were good, the food was good and the service was good. Strongly recommend.

Was surprised to walk in and see the seating was all around the bar but the modern fit-out helped to distract me from that. The food was great and the wine we had was pretty good. Service was good too. I had the Pork Belly and the Chicken. Both were great but I really enjoyed the chicken. It was a little noisy and I can imagine if it was busier it would be more noisy. Still - I would recommend this as a place to try out if you like good food and wine.
