After COVID, I always go to a restaurant with the mindset that the service and the food will not both be great it's usually one or the other.... But this place blew my mind. From the moment we came in and were waiting, the owners were offering beverages before we were even seated. I thought that really showed amazing customer service. As vegetarians sometimes going to restaurants can be tricky to find options but Grapevine has plenty of vegetarian items on the menu and also will accommodate any custom needs. We got the Vodka Pasta and replaced the chicken with vegetables. My favorite part was the hummus. It was so tasty and smooth, you could taste the flavor in every bite. I even took some to go because I liked it so much. The owner was very involved and came around multiple times to ask if we needed anything and how the food tasted. My parents are business owners themselves so they really appreciated someone who was so hands on. We were all so highly impressed and will definitely be back. For anyone planning to go, I'd suggest calling ahead and getting your name on the priority seating waitlist. You will still wait but it helps if you are on this list.

Complementary bread
Cherayna T.

The complementary bread is very good and you can get endless baskets of it. The mocktail was also very flavorful. I believe it was a lavender drink with some fruit flavoring. I definitely will get it again very refreshing. The chicken Parmesan was good. Only thing I would change is the noodles were very watery, but the chicken was seasoned very well. And my favorite the salad was very good. Caesar is the best way to go. People I went with love their pizza and definitely said they will return. The service was very good and he was very attentive and the decoration was very nice and gave an old century vibe. 7/10

Came to The Grapevine based on a recommendation, and they did not disappoint. I had the Spaghetti and Meatball special and it was very tasty. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant had a nice casual vibe. We had a party of seven, and this was the perfect place for a team dinner.

Hours of Operation

Words cannot express how great Grapevine is. From the moment my wife, daughter, and I walked in. We started with an order of Calamari and Cheese sticks. My wife and daughter ordered the Baked Vegetable Spaghetti with salad. I ordered the Baked Manicotti with salad. It was my wife and daughters' 2nd time there, and my 1st time. The staff was above and beyond personable, attentive, and very gracious. Grapevine may become our go to dinner spot at least once a month. What I thought it looked like on the inside was definitely not what I expected. It had areas for every style of dining, from single patrons to large group seating. A 10/10 with 5 stars

You know that feeling when you walk into a place and immediately think, "Wow, these people really know what they're doing"? That's Grapevine. The moment we stepped inside, the heavenly aroma set the tone. To say they were busy would be an understatement--they were hosting a massive corporate holiday party, accommodating several large groups of 9-10, and tending to their regular patrons. Yet, their customer service never faltered. Seriously, 11 out of 10. From the hostess to our waitress, the pianist, the drummer, and every staff member we encountered, everyone was incredibly kind and gracious. I felt immersed in the welcoming culture of Grapevine. And the food? WOW. Our party of six loved every single bite. The bread with oil and spices was chef's kiss. The spanakopita was perfectly light and refreshing, and the homemade Grecian dressing? So good! Now, let's talk main courses. I had Poseidon's Alfredo, and it did not disappoint. Restaurants sometimes over-season, but Grapevine let the creamy Alfredo sauce shine, perfectly complemented by tender shrimp and scallops. My fiancé got the gyro sandwich (which he loved), but those fries--WOW. I'd go back just for the fries alone. For ambiance, we sat near the live music, and it was incredible. The pianist could sing, and the music was just loud enough to enjoy without overpowering table conversations. Add in the Christmas decorations, and it felt like stepping into a Hallmark movie. We were so stuffed we couldn't even try dessert, but we'll definitely be back. If you haven't tried Grapevine yet, go. They will NOT disappoint!

Chicken parmigiana with baked spaghetti. So cheesy!
Michele F.

Very popular family run restaurant serving Greek and Italian dishes. I met a friend for dinner around 5:45pm and there was a crowd waiting to be seated. Our wait wasn't too long thankfully. There are several different rooms, each decorated differently, but all with Mediterranean themes. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. I got the chicken parmigiana, which came with baked spaghetti and a side salad. It was very tasty and the portion size was generous. The dessert cart looked amazing, but I had no room for anything else-the waitress mentioned that her son always orders dessert first. I may have to try that next time. The restaurant started to clear out around 8:00pm, so if you don't want to wait, that's the time to come.

Eggplant Parmigiana
Elyza B.

What a fabulous family owned restaurant! It is spectacularly decorated throughout, very true to the Greek/Italian theme. The staff were so so kind and attentive- I watched several families get greeted by name and loved that. I arrived at 5:45PM on a Saturday for dinner and waited about 20 minutes (you can't call ahead). It was busy but they were organized. We enjoyed the chicken Parmigiana and eggplant Parmigiana with baked spaghetti, and I also loved the caprese salad I ordered. Everything was delicious. I will most definitely be back for dessert! The later hours had no wait- if you arrive after 7:45PM for a late dinner, you'd be seated immediately.

Our wedding setup that the Grapevine so graciously let us use even though it was October 2020 and COVID was in full swing.

Malvern Gardens, Near West End

I can see why everyone raves about Stella's. The ambiance was mesmerizing starting from the outside…read morewith the classic cars parked out front. If they aren't part of the decor, it was a treat nonetheless. We stepped inside from the rain with a parking spot very near the door. I snapped a pic on the way in to capture it's essence. We risked another walk-in with no reservations, and we snagged two prime end seats on the communal table. There were two open seats at the bar as well; might come in handy some other rainy Thursday night. The server, Murphy M., judging by the receipt, who helped my partner and I with our order, was a gracious host and incredibly well-practiced. It was a master class in serving, made effortless by him. He could not have been more accommodating, as we saw him appear inevitably at the exact right moments. Our server offered us bread and oil before the appetizer. The bread here is made fresh daily. It was so soft, I could not tell the difference from store bought. The food was exquisitely well prepared, the chefs and kitchen staff are immensely skilled. The appetizer was presented to us within a relatively short amount of time. We had time for a short discussion before the it arrived. The Tiropita was described as "four pieces of heaven." Accurate. The phyllo was thin and crisp, and the feta was creamy and delicious. I was careful not to bite too hard and ruin my pants. I had the Kotopoulo, which is a feta-brined oven-baked chicken with lemon and herbs served with lemon potatoes. The dish was cooked to perfection. The cooked potatoes were exactly as I like them, soft yet held their shape. It was an excellent meal, if a bit unwieldy (it's like half a rotisserie chicken, basically). My partner had the Hilopites, an egg noodle dish with giant beans, pine nuts, kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, and feta, in a creamy, savory sauce that I couldn't begin to describe with mere words. The meals were both stunning, made unclear by my disastrous photography. All that being said, I did not really enjoy my meal as I was expecting. Maybe it's me, maybe it's today, or maybe the flavors simply weren't what I am accustomed to with the dozens of Greek restaurants from my past. I'm uncertain, and that's okay sometimes. Either way, it was a fantastic experience, and I will dine here again.

Easily one of my favorites in RVA. Everything from the ambiance (beautifully decorated and clean,…read moredim lighting, and great music) to the food to the service is a 10. I especially love their creativity with the menu - the specials are always something new and delicious, and the main apps (who knew strawberry pesto was a thing?) and entrees never disappoint. I've come here for years - sometimes just for a salad (the Greek village is my favorite), other times for a bigger spread and opportunity to try a few different dishes. Cocktails are also inventive and delicious. I choose Demi's to celebrate any milestone or birthday I have because it's always exceptional. Plenty of street parking on quiet MacArthur.

Katie, our server who was also working the bar, was great. She was friendly, very attentive, and gave very good recommendations. I had to try the orecchiette alla campagna which had a lot of raves. Yes, they were right! Delicious, very creamy and flavorful. The shrimp santorini was also great. Flavorful and the shrimps were cooked perfectly. Both were very filling. Galaktabouriko was fine. It was a milk custard wrapped in phyllo that was baked and soaked in honey. The baklava was fine as well. Texture was good and not too sweet. The men's room was very clean and smelled so pleasant. Would definitely come back!
