Went out on a double date and had the absolute best experience. This was the second time we all went out there and our server was Nikki both times. She was absolutely amazing. Our water glasses were always filled, our table was always cleared, she did very well at recommending foods/drinks. I could type out so much more. We all can’t wait to go back. Will be asking for Nikki next time.

One of the best restaurants in the city. Food is excellent and so does the service. Must try the crab cakes, lamb chops and seafood pasta

We celebrated my fiance's 30th birthday here and everything was just incredible. The food and service were some of the best we have ever had. Our server was wonderful, I wish I could remember his name. Highly recommend the eggplant bruschetta appetizer, as well as the filet!

Love Vele! One of my absolute favorite places to dine. Best appetizers, esp the spicy calamari and crispy broccolini! Plus my friends and I adore Nick who is by far the best at Vele! He goes out of his way to ensure everyone feels taken care of... and typically remembers "your usual".

We were invited here for a friend's surprise birthday party. We had never visited this place before, but it was absolutely wonderful. Our server was friendly and attentive to our needs. The Eggplant Bruschetta was to die for! The various Olive oils for the bread were delicious. I ended up going to Roberts Seafood and buying some for at home. The Grilled Caesar salad had the best flavor I've ever tasted. We ordered the Linguine Alfredo and let me tell you it was by far the best Alfredo I have ever had. We also tried the filet which was juicy and flavorful. We finished off with the Spiced Pear Cheesecake. My husband doesn't like cheesecake, but he loved this one. This was the creamiest cheesecake I have had and it was so good! Definitely a location for special occasions, but we will for sure be back!

Delicious food! We shared grilled squid for the appetizer- spicy! I had pasta primavera (the noodles were a little over cooked but the sauce was delicious!). My husband had linguine Alfredo and my mom had spicy seafood sauce - both yummy! The wait staff was very attentive! The decor is hip modern. Highly recommend! Vegetarian options: The pasta primavera is vegetarian and can be made vegan. Same with the acorn squash. Wheelchair accessibility: My mom uses a large walker. She was able to move between tables easily and they took away one chair for her walker.

My fiancée and I did our Valentine’s Day on the 15th and made reservations. The atmosphere of the place is very elegant, and the lighting sets the mood. Our waitress was Bella; she was awesome and provided extraordinary service! We started with the crab & shrimp cakes which were delicious, the sauce was citrus based but paired very well. My fiancée had the linguini Alfredo with grilled chicken and it was delicious and I had the salmon which was blackened with black beans, and jasmine rice, along with pico and a green salsa, the salmon was cooked to perfection! Hands down this was a 5-star experience! If you’re looking for a great fine dining experience in Springfield, I highly recommend them!
