It’s Sunday night and the place wasn’t very busy. I placed an order for just a sandwich and a kibbeh and waited over 30 minutes. I was at least expecting amazing food, but it was very bland and lacked flavor. Save your time.

Best Mediterranean restaurant in saint louis, we got the chicken shawarma it was juicy and tasty, the Garlic sauce is phenomenal and on point, the Hummus was creamy and delicious and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food.
Will definitely be back.

I’m the manager here! Sorry you feel you didn’t have a great experience! When the catering order was placed, it was a misunderstanding. You thought the rice came for free with the order but it does not. On your receipt you can see you only paid for the chicken and salad. We offered to give you free rice and to just come and pick it up to avoid anyone being upset. No one came to pick it up.

We ordered Rice, Chicken, and Yogurt for my sons birthday party. We literally paid for everything upfront. Once we got the order home, we realized we did NOT get any rice at all!!! Once we told them that we were missing the rice, they told us that we needed to PAY for it after we paid for everything upfront! They told us the only way we could get the rice is to pay for it. We weren't paying for Rice TWICE so we asked for a refund and they said we needed to bring the order back to them in order to get our refund. They didn't want to accommodate us at all. When we spoke to the manager on the phone, she was very nasty and very rude. We've been a long time customer for years but WILL NOT be coming back to The Vine. They don't care how they treat their customers at all.

I went into The Vine restaurant, but there was a lot of smoke, and the fire alarm was very annoying. I was bothered by the smell of smoke, so I left the restaurant. I will never go back.

We recently came in for the first time in quite a while, as we no longer live in the neighborhood, and we were so pleasantly surprised with the interior remodel! The dine-in was much improved from recent years, much more like what it used to be when I first moved to town over 12 years ago. The staff was so kind and friendly. Our 1 year old can sometimes be a little rowdy, but the staff were so friendly to her, and even brought her over a free bite-size pastry for her while we waited for our food. Portions were huge, quality was top notch. Delicious. The quality here had taken an understandable hit in the pandemic and years immediately after, but I was SO glad to see The Vine thriving again—both in experience and food! We will be back!

Great, hardworking staff, and delicious Mediterranean food.
The lentil soup was absolutely amazing, and i also really liked the healthy juices/smoothies they make from fresh ingredients.
The Fattoush salad is also a winner!

Friends of mine whose meals contained meat were very happy with their food too, so this restaurant has a little something for everyone!
