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.

The machine has an ever-changing selection of reds, whites, and rosés to either taste or get a full pour of. Both times I have attended I have gravitated to the red blends, becoming favorites of mine. The staff were really nice to chat with and I love the way out of the place, though small. I would be excited to sit outside when the weather is better, though it's just the sidewalk with a bunch of cars going by a busy street. The inside has bar seats, a small lounge area, and a high long table. Did I mention they also sell a bunch of wines, snacks, and more? They have events too, so I will have to check those out.

They offer charcuterie options. It's not a large space so if visiting with a group, reservations are recommended! I can't wait to visit again.

Thankfully, the runner who seated us, (a kind and helpful gentlemen who got a separate tip) noticed and got Daniel to visit our table. My gin martini was excellent and the water was cold. We ordered several plates, which arrived rather quickly. The homemade hummus with the carrots and pickled onions was fantastic. We'd take creamy and delicious hummus like that any day. The deviled eggs were wonderful and came with an extra kick thanks to the jalapeno. Gnocchi with parmesan, carrots, and asparagus was creamy, comforting, and filling. The lamb over hummus, with their rich homemade gravy, rivaled any amazing lamb dish I had anywhere. The portions were phenomenal. I have been to places that give half as much with the same prices. The chef and kitchen staff are incredible. We'll definitely return to try new dishes but we hope the service is much improved.

There are a few tables inside and you can sit outside as well. Parking is on the side garage or 1 hour parking in front where there are a few spots.

Anyhow, the food was amazing, we ordered raw oysters which were fresh I swear they came out the ocean that minute.
