About Vincent’s

A more casual Italian concept by STHS alum Vincent Mandola ’61, located on the same lot as Nino’s on West Dallas Street in Montrose. While Nino’s offered formal family-style dinners, Vincent’s brought a relaxed neighborhood trattoria feel with wood-fired pizzas, pastas, and a lively bar scene. Together with Nino’s and Grappino di Nino, it formed a beloved three-restaurant courtyard compound that became a Houston dining landmark for over two decades. Vincent’s closed in 2022 following Vincent’s passing in 2020.
