Vesta, the Goddess of the Hearth, is the most beautiful of Roman divinities,
bright and pure like the flame that is her symbol. Her name derives from a
Sanskrit root, vas, which expresses the idea of "shining." Latins made
Vesta a goddess who personified the earth and fire. She presided over the
preparation of meals: Vesta was offered the first food and drink.
The hearth conjures up visions of domesticity and peace, for the hearth is the
traditional center of family life. It symbolizes warmth, security, and
companionship a place for dreaming where it becomes possible by peering into the
embers, to find physical and mental renewal and a place to discover the secrets
of the future.
In ancient times a communal fire was maintained in each household by runners. It
was never allowed to go out, as such an omission might threaten social life or
destroy a community's collective spirit or soul.
At Vesta Dipping Grill, we have combined these themes to provide a unique dining
experience. Vesta is simplicity, quality, comfort, life, art, scent, relaxation,
taste, sound, and fun.
Please be considerate of everyone who is here to enjoy themselves. Please leave
your stress at the door. Cell phones are allowed at the bar or outside, but are
not permitted in the dining room. If you plan to dine for more than two hours,
please let your host or server know.
If you have any feedback, positive or negative, we would love to hear it. It's
the only way we can continue to improve what we do. Please ask for Josh or Jen
Wolkon, Executive Chef Matt Selby, or any manager. Thank you for supporting our
passions. Remember, supporting independent businesses helps keep our city
unique.
