The pesto and salami one was my favorite. The inside of the restaurant is pretty dimly lit, but we didn't mind and it helped create a cozy atmosphere. The outdoor patio looked nice and could be a good option for daytime. Our waitress was very attentive and let us know about the seasonal specials. They have a board and wine deal on weekday nights that we're looking to try next. Would definitely recommend for a fun night out in the Village District with friends or a date!

The owners have thoughtfully created a warm & welcoming space both inside & out. Beautiful landscaping greets you as you walk up to Vino's patio. We truly forgot we were a stone's throw away from downtown streets thanks to the trees, fire pits, strung lights, and overall chill vibe. They even have blankets for those chilly Raleigh nights! The wine list is purposefully pieced together and offers such variety at fair & affordable pricing. We look forward to many future visits to experience so many unique varietals & countries represented. I know which food item I am going to try on my next visit - the Brie & prosciutto panini! Sounds scrumptious! The inside decor of Vino Wine Bar in downtown Raleigh has nooks to settle into in addition to a beautiful bar. Great hospitality greeted us at every turn.

So again the vegan in the group wanted the fruit charcuterie board which is not on the menu but Andrew made it happen. I tried the wine which had orange crush in the title, the flavor was exquisite. So awesome if you want a taste treat that does not taste like its name suggest.. Light like a Rosa but dry and crisp nice and refreshing. For those who wonder yes the have bathroom which can accommodate any gender, clean, spacious and easy access. Thanks again Andrew and team for a wonderful evening. Looking forward to another visit when I'm back in NC Come and check out this comfortable welcoming

I dare you not to get the Pistachio Baklava French Toast. It's so freaking good and even kiddos liked it. The Benedict is also a classic and the burrata app is one of the best I've had. I can't wait to try the lamb hash and dive into their big cocktail menu. The table behind me had a cool shareable cocktail bowl. Great place to bring friends, it's one of the best looking restaurants in town.

We entered through a big heavy wooden door into the quasi-dark atmosphere and were promptly seated, despite most of the tables being occupied. We were given a two top and started with chips and guacamole. I was impressed with the chips, they were a little extra thick, had tiny bubbles in them. Certainly a far departure from the typical thin, overly salty chip found at most restaurants and grocery stores. Excellent guac with a little pico and lime wedge on the side. I ordered the Baja bowl with shredded adobo chicken. The bowl had green rice, black beans, a whole lot of kale, tomatillo sauce, pickled red onions, crema, and cilantro. It needed a little more, so I added in some of the guac, a few chips I crumbled in my hands for some crunch, and some fresh lime juice. Noah did a good job keeping our water glasses full and he was quite friendly. However, the restroom situation is a bit difficult. There are two small unisex bathrooms, both of which have to be locked. There can't be more than one person in there at the same time, so plan accordingly. Granted, since there isn't much space in the restaurant, it's not as if they have a ton of options.

The service on both occasions was a little lacking in attentiveness. We waited a long time between each check in for having waters filled or ordering more drinks. And it wasn't busy. One piece of feedback for anyone reading this, that is not the restaurant's fault, is that it isn't a great place to watch a football game. We came here to watch an NFL playoff game and the place was nearly empty at 8 pm on Saturday. It's not bad. I'll repeat that. I enjoyed my food (nachos and a burger). But you might find more unique restaurant experiences elsewhere

The TVs overcome the wall space, the chairs have seen things, and the décor bravely commits to no particular decade or idea whatsoever. Surfaces carry the gentle patina of past patrons--proof that fun was had and only lightly addressed afterward. The staff dash between tables like they've got invisible rockets on their shoes, balancing trays, menus, and the occasional existential dread. New customers arrive like clockwork, and somehow each one is greeted with a smile while the last table is still mid-order and someone else's fries are teetering on the edge of oblivion. Multitasking isn't a skill here--it's a survival tactic. The Old Fashioned lands on the table with all the fanfare of a workmanlike touchdown: competent, decent enough, but not the stuff of legends. No smoky magic, no alchemy--just whiskey, sugar, bitters, and ice doing their basic jobs. The nachos show up looking hopeful: a modest pile of chips garnished with a polite drizzle of cheese sauce, a dab of sour cream, a spoonful of salsa, and a sprinkling of lettuce that screams "fresh-ish." The problem is, the cheese is timid, more of a suggestion than a commitment, and the whole thing settles somewhere between "edible" and "I could have made this at home, probably better. This feels like a burger joint to me.....Cheers!
