Reviews
However, as a wine bar, we were impressed by the decor, drink menu, and service. Wine prices were very reasonable for the quality and for a restaurant price. The 2 appetizers we ordered were very tasty.
The crew heard it was our anniversary and surprised us with an amazing apple crumble dessert.
Will surely return. Just need to make a note this is not a place you’ll want to come hungry and looking for dinner.
The food… incredible. I was very impressed with everything we had. Shared the beet salad with a goat cheese mousse, and the grilled octopus- so so tender. Then we had the short rib gnocchi that was full of mediterranenan flavors (cinnamon for sure) and my husband had the mushroom ravioli that was creamy and diivne. The wines were excellent.. a Latour Bourgogne and a Chateauneuf de Pape that was absolutely perfect with the short rib..mmmm.
Max, our server recommended the espresso martini and so, of course I had to order that. He did a great job and that was a delicious dessert. Highly recommend this lovely place!
The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing wines, food and service. Chef Stephanie is an outstanding Chef. Her food is delicious and the presentations were exceptional. Can’t wait to go back again.
They did not even have printed menus prepared.
Then the young girl waitress had an attitude and was very rude. She did not have basic human manners. If she worked for my company and treated a new potential customer, who was trying to pay money for a service, in her same rude manner, I would have fired her immediately!
Again, NO customers were in there — completely empty — and the service was already this terrible within the first 15 minutes of walking in. It was shocking!!! Can’t imagine how terrible the service would be if they were busy!
We could not take it anymore so my girlfriend waited at the restaurant while I ran across the street to Eddie V’s Steakhouse to see if they could fit us in!
Totally different level of service! They were kind, welcoming and said please come over — we want you to have a great dining experience.
I went back to get my girlfriend and told the server, “Thank you but we’ve decided not to dine here”, as I placed $15 on the table and said, “This is for the bottle of water we ordered.”
The young girl server got a PISSY attitude and in a mean tone said, “Why would you leave?” Very nicely, I explained about the loud rock and roll music (which was still playing loudly at this time), about them not even having menu’s prepared and about the basic rudeness from her! She made a sarcastic remark as she took my $15.
Never once said, “I’m sorry!”
BIG MISTAKE to be rude to a potential customer because you never know who they are and what their platform is. I have millions of social media followers and because of this rude server, we’ve made sure to share our terrible experience and recommend to NOT dine there.
And we spent $300+ on dinner & drinks at Eddie V’s that night & will be going back to Eddie V’s at least twice a month now. If we spend on average of $500 a month across the street at Eddie V’s now (rather than at Vino), that’s $6,000 a year that Vino just lost out on! Plus all the people we tell in Boca to NEVER go to Vino!!!
So stupid on Vino’s management team to let this type of terrible service go on!!!!
And can’t believe all the NEGATIVE reviews Vino has from people who’ve had similar terrible experiences!
Oh well — their loss!!!
One factor preventing a higher rating was the music choice. It felt incongruous to hear country tunes, especially with a vocalist whose performance, regrettably, was subpar. He might have been a better fit for a beach bar, serving frozen cocktails with his undeniable charm. Additionally, the venue seemed to be primarily frequented by a retired clientele, which was worth noting.
Ultimately, the delightful key lime pie was the standout feature, garnering the establishment a solid three stars.
