Mixed reviews on the food. The pork chops were excellent! Cooked perfectly. Ricotta toast also excellent. Hanger steak bloody; it was supposed to be medium. Branzino overcooked for one of us. Our server was excellent also. The room is dark so the menus were a bit hard to read.

Delicious brunch menu and great drinks! Service was good. Not too many people so on a Sunday around noon so nice quiet ambiance.

It was a very nice Anniversary Dinner. However I ordered a margarita and what I got was tequila on ice with a sugared rim. The shrimp risotto was delicious but I had to ask for risotto, hardly any on the plate, but the shrimp were huge!!

Bonnie

Our dining experience was very good. The food/drinks were delicious and service was very good. Slightly more $$$ than we thought but overall very worth it

Ordered medium rare steak. Received it medium well and tough(very chewy). Ordered salad chopped. Waitress acknowledged, but served it, not chopped. Overall, food was not good. I did not send anything back, because that is my nature, but I do not plan on revisiting this restaurant any time soon.

Party of 8 asked for round table I called a few days in advance and Hostess said yes we can accommodate you. Got there and we were seating ALL the way in the back corner where the pizza oven used to be. Cut off from the main dining area in a corner that caught all the noise and echoing. 1st time I was not happy with the overall experience. We eat there regularly and will go back but that won't happen again!

Service was great, food was eh! No lettuce in my beer salad just tons of huge beets and a mediocre piece of salmon, not impressed by food sadly!

We arrived 10 minutes before our reservation and no inside table was available so we sat outside. I had expected better service. Water took long to refill. No check-ups after we for our appetizers or main dishes to see if we needed anything. My husband ordered a second drink and it came with the check; it took so long we thought he forgot. Charcuterie board was just ok, I probably wouldn't order it again. I have them 2 stars because my husband enjoyed his hangar steak. The truffle fries were good. But the bucatini and mussels were so spicy. I did not enjoy them. I was disappointed and won't be coming back.

The food was very good. The risotto that came with the salmon was not cooked enough. They turned the lights down I guess for ambiance but it was too dark. Also, the wait staff seemed to be staring at the patrons a little too much.

Kelly

Food and drinks were excellent. Service was a little slow for the time of day. But overall a great experience.

Gerald

Our family had a great Easter brunch at Vine & Oak. Food was delicious, service was courteous and prompt and we had a lovely experience. We'll be back!

We had a group of 7 at Vine and Oak for a lunch on a Saturday afternoon. There was a large group at the restaurant celebrating an engagement party, but other than that group the place was 50% full when we arrived. The food was very good; we had a number of different entrees and everyone enjoyed the food. However, the service was very slow. It took a long time to get our first drink and we had to flag down a server to order a second drink. Overall it took 2+ hours for lunch. Given the large party, I would go again and hope that the service would be better, but if I have a similar experience the next time, I would not keep it on my preferred list.
