    Service was wonderful and food was outstanding. Such a cute little restaurant. Only thing that could be improved was the wait time for drinks from the bar, but they were good so worth the wait.

    Service was wonderful and we loved the ambiance. I appreciate that there is gluten free pasta too; however, the chef drastically undercooked the pasta so it was hard to eat.

    Food was delicious. Servers were very friendly, and all 4 servers (including the bartender)seemed to be sharing duties for many of the tables. This was actually somewhat nice, but I am wondering if they were understaffed, because everything took a very long time: drink orders (one drink and one glass of wine) and explanation of specials, and it took an hour and a half to get our food from the time we sat down. (An hour plus from the time we ordered.) We were not in a hurry, but if understaffed, it helps to let customers know to expect longer wait times. We may have ordered an app if we had known it would take that long for our entrees.

    I am a younger adult who is usually not expected at nicer establishments like this one. It started as staff didn’t believe that I had a reservation under my name then moved towards being snarky as my date and I were seated. I’m not sure if our waitress was just having a bad day, but watching how she cared for other tables vs what our service was like was quite upsetting. She seemed upset for having to seat guests who appeared younger than what we are without adults there. I’m 20 years old, however, when I go out to eat I’d expect to be treated just as other adults are. The owner, however, was amazing and super kind to us. We celebrated a birthday. I’d go back with my family, but not just myself.

    I WILL NEVER COME TO THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN. My girlfriend and I (both college students) came here for a date night dinner. A women sitting at the table next to us started screaming and swearing at us for being too loud (even after we apologized and said we’d be quieter). She then got the owner who rudely told us to be quiet or leave. 0/10 service. I’m hoping this situation didn’t arise from the fact that my girlfriend and I are lesbians, but it is definitely possible that the owner of this restaurant is homophobic. If you are a college student or a member of the LGBTQ+ community do NOT come to this restaurant

    Another winning dinner at D’Vino! The special spring arancini was delightful - lighter in both flavor and density of standard arancini. I had the Sunday special bolognese served over a perfect papardelle. It’s always a pleasure when a bolognese properly tastes of three meats and not just beef. My dinner companion had the shrimp scampi which looked incredible and, based on what was left on his plate, must have tasted the same. Dessert was a decaf (!) affogato for me and an amaretto with biscotto for my friend. A lovely, long conversation over comforting, beautifully prepared foot is a perfect evening in my book. Thank you, Dino and staff!

    I’ll be honest, I felt harassed by Open Table/was that D’Vino? Hard to tell? I received multiple reminders for our reservation over more than a week. Despite the fact I was warned we would be charged $25 per person if we cancelled with less than 24 hrs notice. We arrived a few minutes before our reservation time. We were graciously greeted. We were quickly seated at a lovely table and given drink menus with descriptive explanations. Service was attentive and gracious. The food was delicious. The timing of appetizer to entree was good as well as dessert. Our waiter admitted he was new at his work. The restaurant was busy, but we could see how well everyone worked as a team to provide impeccable service. We enjoyed our meal and we would highly recommend D’Vino!

    The star of the restaurant is food ofcourse and the owner Dino. He personally visits every table giving his recommendations and asking about your day. When we were there late at night, they ran out of chicken so the owner sent free wine for us 4 girls and also gave us gift card as a courtsey. The service is fab and we always go back for scrumptious food.
