The food was outstanding and would definitely go back for that. Only one concern. Our server used so many adjectives with us we were not always sure who she was talking about or to. We are a husband and wife who don’t understand WOKE.

We had a wonderful dining experience at the Vine! There were four parking spots behind the building. Street parking was a little tough to find during busy Mother’s Day weekend. We were greeted and got seated right away upon arrival. All dishes we ordered were delicious, and our waiter was awesome and very attentive. We will definitely come back again.

This was the best meal I’ve had in so very long! We’ve been planning to try it & so happy we did. Shortly after sitting down we were gifted with an appetizer to start everything off. Our waiter Josh was excellent. The manager came by to welcome us. The food was out of this world. When we declined dessert, they brought one for us to share, wish our friend a very happy birthday & invited us to return again soon. So unexpected, fresh & Fabulous!

Great place; however they seemed to overbook which led to an over filled restaurant, which in turn led to reduced service. I was happy to see they apparently turned away a group of about 5 which were extremely inappropriately dressed....shorts, tank top, no shoes etc. I also like the fact they did not have child seats nor a kids menu, and therefore no children present, which we really liked. Nothing worse than spending a roll on a fine dinning restaurant which then allows irresponsible parents to bring their crying children and ruin everbodys meal. Overall; a very good experience with minor exceptions. We will return again and recommend the Vine to all.

This restaurant was a pleasant surprise. The food was quick to the table and hot. Interesting play on flavors of classic dishes. Service was impeccable! Our server was knowledgeable and very nice! The appetizer of "Fried green tomatoes and burrata " was simply amazing!! Highly recommend and I will be going back to try more items on their menu.

Instead of ordering entrees, we decided to do a variety of starters. They were spaced out perfectly and we never felt rushed. Our Manhattan cocktails were perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for a better server than Michelle. It was our first time there, but we’ll be back.

The Vine is one of our favorite restaurants and is very unique in terms of ambience, as it has areas that are quiet and exclusive and others that are more lively. Meanwhile, the food features really special blends that work well with a great wine selection. They are very welcoming.

"I love the relaxed feel of this place – The outdoor dining area was a bit loud for intimate conversation. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The Lentil soup was amazing and the Brussels sprouts, Burrata green fried tomatoes and ravioli starters were out of this world. Everyone loved the bone in Ribeye steak, halibut, chicken schnitzel and the cheese/meat plates. Service was well-timed and friendly, wished they don’t have a corkage, I would come weekly ;)
