Welcome to Dua Vino (open for dinner) + The Bar (our 3rd floor restaurant and bar open for lunch and dinner).

Our main floor restaurant offers a contemporary Italian cuisine that will tantalize your taste buds with dishes like baci di mama with truffle oil, fritto misto, scallops, and a 28-day dry aged ribeye. But don't forget to save room for our famous Mama Drita's cheesecake. As you step inside, the atmosphere will immediately transport you to a world of ambiance, with perfectly dimmed lights, hand-painted walls, and upbeat jazz music setting the mood for a memorable evening.

Our third floor restaurant and bar boasts it's own menu with shareable entrees like flatbreads, steak tips and a mouth-watering wagyu burger. With windows that fully open it is quite the spot for lunch or dinner with a view.

Our restaurants are housed in a beautifully renovated historic building in the heart of downtown South Lyon, where no detail was overlooked in preserving its original character.

    Here’s the good, the focaccia was delicious, the scallops and the Marsala were tasty. The Marsala had a decent amount of mushrooms and sauce and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The bad, the pasta was from a box. I would expect upscale Italian to make their own pasta. The rigatoni looked like Barilla’s boxed pasta and the Italian sausage was inedible due to it being burned. We addressed the issue with the waiter, he offered nothing for the error. Also, their two recommended pastas were sold out adding to the disappointment. Lastly, we noted a special occasion and it was ignored. It’s a shame because we really looked forward to trying the restaurant. I am a little saddened by the experience

    Amazing evening! Only negative was that there was a loud group of 10+ men, but understandable considering it’s the holiday season. And they were only very loud for about 10 min. They did apologize to everyone in the dining room. One off incident. But otherwise an amazing evening and place!!

    The food was good, but I’ve had better. Ordered the chicken marsala, it was ok. The drinks were really good. It’s a pretty small place and the tables are very close together and difficult to even walk between the tables.

    Agree with others that the dining space can be loud. So many restaurant spaces, today, neglect soft surfaces that absorb sound. Other than that, the food and service was superb. Do try the focaccia and the bolognese!

    Great food, great service. They should space out dining parties if it’s not too busy, no need to be so close in an already small restaurant.

    First time dining here and it was a great experience for a girls night out dinner. The service was excellent - great recommendations, prompt and friendly service, quick follow up on menu questions - , the food was all delicious and the portions generously sized, the ambiance was relaxed but elegant, and we all appreciated the table lamp with adjustable lighting we could brighten to read the menu then dim while eating. Overall great place and we will definitely be back!
