About Vintage '61 Wine Bar & Kitchen

Vintage '61 Wine Bar & Kitchen is a charming spot with a cozy atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including the Caesar Salad, Pan-Fried Halloumi Cheese, Black Prawn Cocktail, Bucatini Bolognese, and Petite Angus Filet Mignon. The restaurant also serves Wild Monk Fish & Lobster Risotto and Creme Brulee for dessert. The wine selection is impressive, with a full bar and reasonably priced drinks. Guests can enjoy a wine flight or a classic cocktail like an Old Fashioned. The menu features pan-seared calamari, prime rib with Gorgonzola potatoes, and scallops with green pea risotto. The bison flat iron steak is a standout, and the service is always great. The chef, Carlos, is dedicated to using fresh and seasonal ingredients, and the service is fast and attentive. Guests often enjoy meals like the bison filet, sea bass, rib eye, and swordfish, which are praised for their quality and flavor. The cozy outdoor “backyard” area, shaded by mature trees and umbrellas, adds to the charming experience. Guests have enjoyed delicious Prosecco and a red wine flight, along with the filet mignon and game plate with quail, bison, and wild boar. Clam chowder and French onion soup have been praised, as well as gorgonzola mashed potatoes. The service is wonderful and personable, with a birthday cheesecake on the house. Bread pudding was enjoyed, though more ice cream was desired. The atmosphere was great, with live music fitting the restaurant. Appetizers took a long time, but everything else fell into place.

Super bummed that tonight's anniversary dinner was a bust. We've heard so many good things too. It was slow and mistimed. Flight took a hot minute to get to the table, glass of wine got to us at the mid/end of dinner, 3 pieces of shrimp for $10, and a rubber band in the broccolini. We took dessert to go. We requested it heated and no ice cream since I can't have dairy and it was TO GO...buuuut they put a scoop of ice cream in container anyway that we didn't see until we were gone....read full review

Stopped by Thursday night. They had a band playing outside.
Called last minute to drink some wine. Super accommodating and pet friendly outside on their gorgeous patio.
The wine was amazing, the menu even better! My husband and I looked at each other and said we could order one of each.
He had the clam chowda (as he says being from Massachusetts) and I had the lamb chops.
The soup was not lacking clams at all and the lamb was cooked to perfection.
We will be...read full review
