The slightly off beaten track does not deter die-hard fans of Italian cuisine from thronging into Vito's and patrons will vouch for the fact that their classy setting, straightforward menu and reasonably priced wines is well worth the detour. Diners could also pop in for a light lunch and the adjoining bar which opens late afternoon could be just the place for an after works drink.

Vito's fondness for working in tandem with the local suppliers is evident in the menu, which is aptly supplemented by weekly specials and the buffet-style Sunday lunch carvery, a tribute to the time-honoured British tradition. Popular dishes include pan fried scallops with garlic, chilli, white wine and parsley; rack of lamb braised in the oven with rosemary; sirloin steak with green peppercorn sauce, and pasta with Italian cured beef, cherry tomatoes, radicchio, pecorino cheese and mozzarella.
