    Great spot, easy parking in the building. Servers were very attentive and had a great energy. We had a very fun lunch, both had the chopped chicken salad which was good, a bit heavy on the dressing, but fresh and lots of avocado which we both enjoyed.

    Our first visit to Sixty Vines was a lunch date with the love of my life. We were impressed directly by the open and naturally well lit space. We were met by our hostess Ashland with a welcoming smile, immediately making us feel comfortable. We were led to a beautifully, naturally lit table with precise flatware and napkin presentation. Our server, Conner, expertly explained the menu and how things worked. This was our first time having wine service this way. It’s fun! Wine on tap? Wine not? We decided on the Ken Wright BONNY JEAN VINEYARD'PINOT NOIR Yamhill-Carlton, OR. An elegant, medium bodied lunch fare wine. We ate tapas style that included bacon wrapped dates and fried zucchini along with a three item charcuterie served with a delightful honeycomb. We split the house salad and shared a fig and prosciutto pizza. The food is magnificent and elegantly plated! Connor recommend the CHÂTEAU MALIJAY 'CÔTES DU RHÔNE'GRENACHE + SYRAH + MOURVEDERE. A perfect pair with the pizza! Thank you, to the entire staff of Sixty Vines, for exceeding our expectations in every way. We cant wait to return for dinner service.

    Overall experience was wonderful! Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable. He took great care of us. Loved the “Art of War” quotes around the entire restaurant. Such a nice ambiance. The only recommendation is we were initially seated at the first booth area directly by the front entrance. Ever time the door opened we were subjected to a cold draft. As the evening became busy, saw diners waiting outside in the cold. I would use that area as alcove seating for diners that are waiting.

    Nice ambience. Small, intimate setting and the DJ played some nice vibes and kept the volume reasonable. The tables with the club chairs are a little bit uncomfortable in that the chairs are too low for the table. The service was ok. Our server did the bare minimum and would often disappear for long stretches of time. Empty plates and glasses would also be left on our table much longer than is appropriate. We had to ask for our table to be cleared. Cocktails were good and the food was good. The crab spring rolls and the desserts were delicious. I would go back, but probably not very soon. If the service is the same next time, we might not give it a third try. For the price point and presentation, service really needs to be much improved.
