We enjoyed a wonderful evening at VIN Room West. Great tapas and shareable plates with numerous wine selections! We will definitely be back to try their larger plates! Service was outstanding!! Very attentive and accommodating - thank you!!

We had a group of 8 for a special dinner. The food was great, server was super accommodating and attentive without being intrusive. And the atmosphere was perfect, maybe some minor issues with temperature control, but it was sorted out. Perfect venue for our party.

The Sunday 2 course meal for $30 is a really good deal. Service was welcoming and checked on us frequently. The duck confit wasn't my favorite but the butternut squash soup was very nice. I would return to try other items in the future.

The food was delicious, Fantastic wine selection (including by the glass), fabulous Happy Hour from 3-6 which includes $7 wine $10 cocktails and appetizers. Phenomenal service with outstanding live jazz music! 🎵

The food was actually not very good. The wings were good, but all the other dishes we ordered were not unfortunately. It was surprising.

We had a fantastic dinner at Vin Room West. Jason provided exceptional service and the meal was one of the best we have had in a long time. We both had the specials (one salmon and one Pork tenderloin) and it was delicious. Everything about the evening exceeded our expectations. .

Came for the Sunday Supper and they had already sold out by 6:30. I had stated that’s what we wanted on my reservation too. The chef offered the starter as a comp which was nice, but overall running out of the menu items was disappointing as I specifically picked this night to go after seeing the Sunday Super menu for Aug 3. The food was fine, somewhat underwhelming, definitely better places to go. The steak bites were unappealing as they were more slivers of steak and so many mushrooms. I did get a side of mashed potatoes (again something I was really looking forward to from the Sunday menu and they did still have those, and those were also comped, so that was appreciated). I felt bad for our waitress who already had unhappy guests she said, she was a bit forgetful because of being frazzled I think, but she was sweet enough. I drove 30 mins from the deep south, and won’t again, although the dog patio does seem like a fun idea. Was kind of a bummer after being so excited.

Wife and I had our first date since we've been married as we have a newborn as well. Only took 5 months lol but we chose this place to really spoil ourselves and we weren't disappointed. The food was great as we went for happy hour. We had oysters, crab cakes (rather small), tuna tartar, rack of lamb and the Cornish game hen. The only thing I wasn't impressed by was the tuna tartar. The marinade was nice on the tuna but when just put on top of diced avocado, it was lacking some body in flavor. Wish we tried the steak. Other than that the service was spot on especially the wine pairing with our meal! Be forewarned, the lounge seating is DEFINITELY lounge!!! Not for eating lol

Excellent service, beautiful location, amazing food and cocktails at affordable prices... What the hell is not to like? Surprised this place isn't packed, daily.

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here two weeks ago, and returned to bring her parents here because we loved our experience so much. The service was fantastic, food was delicious, no complaints!

Ordered BQ package for Father's Day. Garbage! Tiny portions. Sauteed cabbage equals two slices of cabbage. Salmon was mostly skin. Petit steak is an understatement. We will not be dealing with them again.

My wife just got the father's day bbq package paying more than 90 dollars. Never experienced anything so overpriced and disappointing. The regular bbq package might have been worth it, but this was an absolute joke. Thanks Vin Room for a total underwhelming father's day dinner!
