Wow!! I do not have enough good things to say about this place…read more To start when you walk in the staff warmly welcomes you. The owner was standing at the host stand and instantly made me feel like family the second I walked in the door. I told him I needed gluten free and he walked me through every single menu item that had gluten free and which didn't. Secondly he then told me his top picks on the menu. I was ordering take out so I put in my takeout order and he was so friendly "come sit at this table! Don't stand around." He then brought me some water. Such great customer service! This guy should teach other restaurants how to do customer service. Now let's talk about the food. I ordered a gluten free margarita pizza add chicken and the bolognese pasta. Both were incredible. Literally not one thing wrong. The sauce on both was yummy and full of flavor. The cheese on the pizza was fresh and you could tell it was high quality and the other ingredients were top quality. This is one of those meals that you start eating and can't stop eating once you start. That's rare for me. Will 100% be back when I'm back in the area. If you're thinking of coming to this restaurant... do it!!

Tonight I ordered the Cali Club on a sub roll and it was the best sandwich I've eaten in a long time. The sub roll was a foot long so now I have another sub for tomorrow!

Ordered a 14" Supreme, 14" The Oinker, and an Italian sandwich. Of the two pizzas, The Oinker was the family favorite. Came with all the tasty meats (Bacon, Pepperoni, Sausage & Ham). The Supreme was good, but had way too many olives. The Italian was pretty standard and big (plenty to share!) - I think I'll try another one of their sandwiches next time. Service was pleasant and you won't have a hard time finding parking in their rear lot.

The special I ordered (pictured) was easily one of the best dishes I've had in a long time, and honestly every single thing we ordered was delicious. This meal went above and beyond perfection. We got there a little before noon and already had 3 cars ahead of us waiting for them to open -- the second those doors opened, people were lining up fast. They had plenty of tables and service was so quick. Once we were seated, things moved quickly: menus right away, water and drinks out fast, and service that stayed genuinely attentive the whole time. I didn't even get close to finishing my drink before they were already checking if I wanted a refill. All of our meals came with soup and salad, and the pasta fagioli was amazing -- I'm not usually a fan of celery in it, but it was still so flavorful. They also have an impressive dessert menu, but we were way too stuffed to even think about it. Next time we're definitely leaving room for dessert! Highly recommend -- go early, it's worth the wait!

Additionally, we tried a wine cup and let me tell you, it was so delicious.

If you've been to Naples in Italy, home of the best pizza in the world, you'll recognize the long fermentation and careful baking of the crusts, yielding just enough touch of char that results in a delicious crust that's crispy outside and fluffy inside. On a recent visit to Maryland, my group of 5 ordered some appetizers, an order of picanha (Brazilian steak), and a large picanha pizza. So innovative! Most of all, perfectly delicious. Brazil Gourmet is casual, easy going, and had very good service. Tip: Wednesday is all you care to eat pizza night.

We've been here about ten times since Tony P's took over, and the experience has generally been great. The pizza is outstanding, and every fish dish we've tried has been enjoyable. I also appreciate I'm able to get a well‑made mixed drink. But here's my gripe: the pasta. It's consistently below par. The texture is gummy, and yesterday's lasagna confirmed it again. When delivered parts were warm, parts were cool, the pasta was mushy, and the red sauce was minimal. My wife warned me -- her last pasta dish here wasn't good -- but I didn't listen. I ate about a third, took the rest home, and halfway through the walk (we live close) I tossed it in the trash. I only write reviews when a place earns an A+ or a D‑. Everything else here is solidly in the A range... but the pasta needs serious attention. Think about it. I'll be back however a bit more selective in my order.

Abuzz with activity, the vibe was brunchy, lots of tables, but it didn't feel too tight. Once our drinks were served, our party of five became a party of six and they transitioned us easily to another table that accommodated our growing group. Our server, Leah was impeccable in every way. She was patient as we needed to move and patient as we talked incessantly while slowing fawning over the menu. She made recommendations to accommodate our numerous changes, she was just overall a great server. The food came out, hot, quick and absolutely delicious. We are a talking group, so we were there for nearly 3 hours. At the end, one of our group ordered a to-go meal and Leah once again, quickly accommodated us. As we were leaving, one of the managers agreed to take our picture in front of the restaurant, adding a nice cherry on top of already great service. No need to travel to downtown Silver Spring, Rockville or Columbia - this Olney eatery is firing on all cylinders. Thanks for a great experience Salt & Vine!

They offer indoor and outdoor dining, as well as a private room. The vibe is cool, comfy sophistication. My kind of place. Now, let's discuss the food. My date ordered the shrimp scampi, and we both found it odd that the dish wasn't served with pasta. When I think of shrimp scampi, I expect shrimp accompanied by pasta, so its absence was a surprise. I ordered the branzino, which was somewhat dry. I really wished I'd had a lemon or lime to squeeze over it. The portion size of the risotto was entirely too much, especially considering it wasn't very good. The recipe needs to be reworked, and somebody needs to taste it before it leaves the kitchen. We all know a good risotto isn't easy to execute, but that's precisely why it deserves some attention. We also found the oysters to be rather small. The drinks, however, were really tasty! I'd definitely come back because I enjoyed the ambiance, but I'd try something else on the menu. The atmosphere was lovely. The food just didn't quite measure up.

Cute outdoor patio and that could be a nice space. The inside is normally decorated restaurant space. The service wasn't too bad, attentive at first and then she disappeared for 10 min and then took our orders. Afterward she didn't even bother to ask how the food was, if she did I would've told her how disappointed I was with the dish that was recommended as, "oh you can't go wrong with eggplant parm! It's great!" Needless to say that it was an overpriced mush of a dish. There was no texture to the dish. At first sight it looked like a generous helping of food, about 6 pieces of eggplant with spaghetti. However, there was no texture to the deep fried eggplant, no crunch, no flavor, disappointing. Spaghetti was normal, nothing special. The pizza. Not shown, was also disappointing. There's so many other better options close by, prob won't come back.
