We are regular customers because De Vine offer a great combination of excellent food, wine and service. Our latest visit was really great and we shared a variety of dishes that were all top quality - my personal favourite was the risotto but the scallops came a very close second. We enjoyed a delightful bottle of wine and the table staff and the sommelier were on the ball throughout our evening. You should definitely try this out if you like good food and want to be able to select from a great wine list!

Delicious food as always! Looks like they’ve changed their menu up a bit as there were so many new items I’d like to try in the near future. I was really disappointed with the ramen, it seems they’ve downsized, singular piece of chashu pork and not much broth anymore either. Noodles clumped together a lot more than usual, so that was a bit disappointing
