    About our fourth visit there and the last one. Service is just horrible. They literally whisk your plate away from under your nose while you’re trying to eat them. They are so anxious to clear the table.

    Vine and Oak never disappoints! The Chilean Sea Bass was outstanding. Service is top-notch. Beautiful setting.

    Great ambience. Almost perfect. Food was lacking slightly for what you’d expect from a place that looks like this. Nevertheless, food wasn’t absurdly expensive so it didn’t feel terrible. Still definitely hoping for a better food experience.

    Everything was fantastic last night for a nice Birthday Celebration. I did ask for the Wine room as I wanted something more quiet, but since that room wasn't open last night, they accommodated by putting us in the back by the window which was still very pleasantly quiet for conversational talk. Our waitress Stephanie was fantastic! The Octopus with potatoes was delicious, so was my Vegan Pasta dish and everyone at my party mentioned the food was great from the short ribs to the Chilean Sea Bass!

    Overall a very good experience. Appetizers were both delicious. Filet mignon was not great and the chocolate lava cake was a little dry for lava cake
