At Yiannis Wine & Food, we have a passion for delicious bites and even better wine. Founded by Ioannis Choutris in 2011, we carved out a niche for rare and hard-to-find labels from around the world. Over time, we grew into a full-service kitchen, specializing in premium seafood and steaks, always paired with the perfect wine.

Dining at Yiannis is an immersive experience—our wine-cellar-style space is lined floor to ceiling with exceptional bottles. Whether for an intimate dinner or lively gathering, our fine dining atmosphere and warm hospitality make every visit special.

    Filet rare came medium. Lamb was also way overcooked. Bolognese had an odd flavor. Scallops were good. Server was just useless. For the money this place is an avoid at all costs.

    Steve, We're sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. While we take all guest feedback seriously, we respectfully disagree with the tone of your public and private remarks toward our staff. Our service team works hard to ensure every guest is well cared for, and personal insults are not in the spirit of constructive criticism. Our team—both front and back of house—is made up of dedicated professionals who consistently receive glowing praise from guests for providing some of the best dining experiences they’ve ever had. Your experience appears to be an outlier and would have gladly corrected any concerns on-site had we been given the opportunity. – Yiannis Wine & Food Team

    We were returning to Virginia Beach where we honeymooned 50 years ago. I read the reviews of Yiannis on Trip Advisor and decided to book our anniversary dinner here. It definitely did not disappoint! The atmosphere, the staff, the food all exceeded our expectations. It was so good that we made another reservation for Tuesday. Would highly recommend!!
