Great vibe, cozy interior, lots of drinks to choose from, and very kind staff. 10/10 would recommend (and come back). Zach, if you're reading this, we'd like a red carpet next time - please and thank you read more

What can I say love the food, love the sangria and love the atmosphere!!! Their lasagna is my favorite dish packed with flavor and so cheesy! Definitely a must stop for Italian cuisine on the south side! read more

had a reservation for 7pm tonight on the patio to hear the music...no table saved. it's packed. no place to sit out on patio where our reservation was made for. bottom line..mgmt will not save you a table. you must get here 1-2 hrs in advance..ehats the yse for the reservation??? bad experience!!! read more

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. This place is amazing! What a great experience. We went for my birthday and had the best time. We ordered the fish sliders, the Brie grilled cheese, and the chicken salad sandwich. Every dish was fantastic, and we ended up ordering more of the grilled cheese and fish sliders because they were so delicious. Additionally, the servers were all very nice and knowledgeable. I ask a lot of questions about food and wine, and they were willing to answer every one and guide me through the wine selection. There were a few wines they didn't have detailed information about, so I would suggest a wine tasting for some of the newer servers to get them up to speed. The patio outside is cozy, and you feel like you're in a quaint spot in Greenwood. They have live music on the weekends, which adds to the charming atmosphere. The inside is multiple stories, and I'm not sure about the handicap access to the upper floors. With a lot of stairs, I would suggest looking into this before visiting if accessibility is a concern. Overall, Vino Villa offers quality food, excellent wine, and a wonderful place to spend time with friends, family, or loved ones. We had so much fun, and I want to extend a big thank you to Vino Villa for making my birthday special. read more

There was no one at the host stand when we entered, and we had to wait a few minutes to be seated. Very charming ambiance in what appears to be a century-old home. We got a table in what I assume was a bedroom at one time right up by the window, and we had the entire room to ourselves for most of our stay. They have a small wine shop downstairs and a good variety of wines available by the glass. The food was all very good. I absolutely loved the Mediterranean 7-layer dip! There was a bit of a wait for our food -- 20 minutes for 3 appetizers, but we had wine to sip on and weren't in a rush, so it was okay. They lose a star on the sangria, though. It's one of the worst I've ever had. A few years ago, I got really into using those 0-Calorie flavor things you squirt into water, and this sangria reminded me exactly of those. It was just slightly fruit-flavored water (and that was after I scooped out most of the ice). Our server was very friendly and welcoming. This is a place I would probably come back to, but I definitely will avoid the sangria next time! read more

I love coming here and sitting on the patio in the evening when the weather's nice.There's often live music to listen to. The gazebo and string lights add to the special atmosphere. It's the perfect setting! There's a lot of wine to choose from, but my husband and I enjoy getting the Sangria. We shared both the Red Wine and Peach Sangria. The Peach is the summer flavor. It's l fruity, light and perfect for summer! Closer to fall, they have a Carmel Apple Sangria that is phenomenal! For food, we finally tried the Spinach and Artichoke Dip for our appetizer. My husband loves the lasagna so much, he gets it every time. It's the most perfect lasagna I've ever tasted. I like to switch things up and had the Mediterranean Steak Skewers. They were tender, flavorful and delicious. The service was fast and friendly. It's impressive because the patio is often packed. With its fantastic atmosphere, tasty wine and scrumptious food, Vino Villa deserves a visit! read more

I've been enjoying coming here for the past few years. I finally got to bring my mom here as she lives in Georgia. We sat outside on the patio which is the best place to sit when visiting! Service was quick and our server was extremely lovely! We split a lobster and shrimp mac and a garden salad with the Greek vinaigrette. The lobster mac is pretty much the only item I get. The salad was very fresh. And the dressing was so good! Another fantastic meal here! read more

We came here to have a glass of wine for our anniversary. Our server was super sweet! She shared her history with the location. This location use to be an old home that has been turned into a wine bar/restaurant. I thought it was pretty cool how the tables are in rooms upstairs. The slice of cake that was offered to us was HUGE! We didn't get a chance to try the food but we will be back. We purchased two bottles of wine and they were amazing. I look forward to making this a date night place for me and the hubs. read more

I was not expecting the set up for this restaurant when I walked in. You are greeted by a sign that says please seat yourself. We wandered around the lobby for a bit before realizing we had to find a seat upstairs. For starters we got the bread and spicy jam- it was decent, but definitely overpriced for what it was. We got the Manicotti and Lobster Mac and Cheese. The manicotti was phenomenal- so creamy and seasoned perfectly. The lobsters Mac and cheese was meh. It didn't taste seasoned, the sauce didn't stick to the noodles and it was rather bland. For dessert we tried the pumpkin cream cheese cake and it was GREAT! Super moist, and the cream cheese frosting was fantastic. Our server was super sweet and got us whatever we needed! read more

When looking for a place for dinner downtown we passed this cute wine bar with lovely outside entertainment. The menu was small but had a lot of great options, sadly for me there were not many lactose free options. The menu had wine pairings which was a nice touch but it looked like not all of the suggested pairings were available. The lobster Mac was said to be very good and the Tuscan chicken was light and refreshing. service was prompt. The bathrooms were not very accessible as this was a remodeled old house. read more

Enjoyed a delightful lunch upstairs in this charming 100 year old Polk family home with my daughter. Our server was Victoria, whom made us feel welcome and she displayed just the right amount of attentiveness. We had the Brie Grilled Cheese Sandwich and the Italian Beef Sandwich. We enjoyed a Holiday Drink ~ Peach Sangria with Berries. We took a huge slice of Carrot Cake home! Try this place - it's a Win-Win! read more

Always amazing food and wine, service is superb! I wish they had more options for handicap accessibility.

A friend and I went while the weather was nice and got a table under the gazebo. They had a free wine tasting also located outside and it was lively and fun. To this day I've never eaten indoors. On a previous visit, I was seated on the front porch. I have been inside, but only to check out the music on the top level and to purchase wine. I really enjoy the salads here and the way you can customize them by adding different protein! read more

The salad was fresh but very pricey. Limited menu, no ice in the water no refills offered. Restroom upstairs, steps only.

I had the lasagna and it was very good. The server recommended a wine selection and I chose it. Not being a wine connoisseur, I took her suggestion. It was chilled to my liking and I thoroughly enjoyed 2 glasses. The server answered all of our questions and was very pleasant and timely with our food delivery. The restaurant does not have an elevator and most of their seating is on upper floors of an older 3 story house. When making our reservation, we asked for a 1st floor table, as one of our party had mobility issues. When we arrived, we were seated at a 1st floor table that had been saved for us. Overall, a very enjoyable meal and service. We will be back. read more

Loved this restaurant. We were looking for something different & tried this restaurant. Is in a large old home, 3 stories. Ambiance was warm, pleasant. I enjoyed the food, which included spicier versions of some traditional meals. Staff were friendly. Cant wait to make time for an evening meal on the patio. read more

This is one of the cutest places in Greenwood! Stopped in for the first time for dinner tonight and was so happy that I did. We started out with the spicy crab dip (not pictured, because we were so excited to try it--it was gone before I even thought to snap a pic!). I had the Greek salad with Mahi Mahi. It was super refreshing with a great dressing! The goat cheese pizza was also phenomenal. Finished off with the carrot cake at the suggestion of our waitress. It was incredible and an easily shareable piece. Cute atmosphere and amazing service as well! Can't wait to go back when it's warmer to sit outside on the patio! read more

I absolutely love this place, especially in the summer. Their outside patio is perfect for a summer evening with a nice acoustic show in the background, lights strung above, and plenty of room. You can bring your dogs and they will bring our doggie water bowls!! The service is exceptional. Obviously the wine selection is great. We had the Sauvignon Blanc. It's crisp and sweet with just a bit of tartness. Bruschetta for appetizer with crostini. So fresh with a little spiciness. We had the salmon and seafood ravioli. Great seafood and just the right amount. Also had the Italian beef. Sometimes a risk at restaurants because you sometimes get fatty beef. But this was perfect!! Served with kettle chips in nice crusty bread. Excellent evening. read more

Food was good till found black short hair on cranberry crestini. Then young man in sweat pant and shirt kept walking in and out of kitchen, he did not work there. That is probably where the hair came from. The chief had straight longer hair tied back and was very polite. Our waitress was nice, not very knowledgeable, kept disappearing, and out of all the young adults in restaurant walking around, no one asked or noticed that we were out of drink. And dishes needed to be taken off table. Loved the actual meal and dessert. JUST get hair Nets on employees and keep others out of kitchen, thank you. Ambiance was multiple young people walking around all around. read more

My husband and I recently discovered Vino Villa while visiting various locations along the Indiana Wine Trail. The setting is quaint, intimate, and charming. Housed within an old residence, Vino Villa offers indoor seating, wine bar, and a shaded outdoor patio. It creates a relaxing atmosphere that makes you feel as though you've been transported to a Cafe in the European countryside. They offer a tasty selection of appetizers, sandwiches, pizza, and of course dessert. And let's not forget the incredible wine list. Today, my husband and I split the Bruschetta as a starter. It was very good, but a little on the spicy side, which my husband loved. He then ordered the Prime Rub sandwich, while I had the Brie Grilled Cheese. The grilled cheese was amazing! First, I love that it wasn't huge, as I just wanted something small. Second, the bread is handmade with cranberries and walnuts. Every bite was pure enjoyment! Unfortunately, we didn't leave room for dessert, but the desserts looked amazing. The next time we stop in, I plan to save room for my sweet tooth. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. Today, they were a bit short staffed, but that didn't stop them from serving you with a smile. I highly recommended you drop by the next time you're in the neighborhood. Bon Appétit! read more

We've talked about this place for years, and finally met to celebrate birthdays with wine and cheese! The weather was perfect to sit outside. Our server was attentive, although very busy. The outdoor chairs were comfortable. And our table accommodated three shared platters and a wine bucket! The more expensive Chardonnay was worth it ( we were ce k berating after all). We enjoyed bruschetta, spinach artichoke dip and antipasto. The only negatives: the bread was so crusty it was almost hard to eat. And our server couldn't tell us what one thing was on the antipasto plate (see photo). Maybe next time we'll try a salad or entree but what we had we enjoyed! read more

Inside an old victorian house, there is outside patio seating, porch seating, 2nd floor seating and a thrid floor wine bar with music. When you first walk into the "house" there is a wine shop. The food menu is small, but mighty. We had the focaccia appetizer, greek salad, and chicken picatta. We also both ordered a peach sangria. Everything was delicious and the staff were friendly. They have a wine club, that you can sign up for, and they have a month wine pairing dinner. Check out their website or FB page for more info on those. There's also a cute country store and Abby's Closet (second hand store) across the street to check out. read more

I love Vino Villa - their wine and menu selections are perfect for a light lunch or a nice dinner. It's a great place for an intimate date or a fun night out with the girls. It's a cozy setting because it's in an actual house that's been renovated. Parking is a little tricky, but there is a public lot across the street that is usually available. Also they have a beautiful patio with live music in the Spring and Summer. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. The patio is pet friendly. I highly recommend Vino Villa for a great experience! Have a great day!! read more

Atmosphere was somewhat charming in old building. That's where the good experience stopped. My lasagna was average at best, and the bruschetta seem like canned tomatoes mixed with a little olive oil. Worst I've ever had. There are so many better options in Indianapolis in Greenwood. Heard from an inside source a lot of their food comes in frozen from GFS. read more

Waitress was great. Other staff like Amy, Abby, and Joe we have had were still greeting and great. Food quality has depreciated over the last 6 months. Some dude stared at my wife the entire time. Table next to me said he is the owner. I guess, take your wife there and she we get lots attention. read more

We had a very large group and they reached out to confirm numbers and had the tables set up and ready. It was amazing! Everything was planned very well, the food was hot and delicious, our server was excellent and handled the group without flaw. The set up was perfect for our group. The wine was excellent! They really exceeded our expectations, handled everything perfectly, and the place is beautiful. I will definitely be going back and I am so grateful to all the staff that helped make our night wonderful!! Thank you so much! read more

This is a great place for that little something extra. It can be cozy and romantic or perfect for a small group get together. It is a house in downtown Greenwood that has been converted into a restaurant/wine store. The rooms make it convenient for small get-togethers. It is also a cozy place for date night. There is a gazebo and outside space for when the weather is nice. I came here to have a drink with some friends to celebrate a birthday. We had bruschetta, and spinach artichoke dip, and spicy crab dip. Several of us ended up ordering dinner. I tried the rotating pasta. It was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. We shared a couple bottles of a red blend wine . I will definitely come back. read more

This is a cute place! However I have a few issues with this business. 1) The parking lot is in the back so therefore everyone enters from the back but they want people to check in upfront on the street side which means people need to awkwardly walk around the building in order to check in. This should be fixed by adding a hostess stand on the backside of the restaurant. 2) Once you get to the hostess stand inside there is no one there to greet you. I had to walk into the back wine sales area to get someone to seat me. The hostess stand should be manned at all times. 3) There is no non-alcoholic drink menu available. Please make one. 4) I didnt enjoy the view of the cars passing by while eating my food and this could be fixed by adding more foliage or fencing on the street side to help with the ambiance factor. 5) This place only has paper straws available. I dont think this one requires an explanation. read more

First and last time going to Vino Villa. Had a reservation, but no tables available when we arrived. Finally was seated outside which was fine. Music was enjoyable but too loud as we couldn't visit with our friends. Waited forever to get water. Placed our order and salads were brought to our table, but no cutlery was given to us or napkins. Had to flag someone down so we could eat our salads. Main entree finally arrived and again had to find someone to get us knives to cut our food. Food was decent but a very disorganized establishment. read more

Good service. Baked Brie is delicious, mainly for the bread & jam served with it, spinach & artichoke dip was very good as well. Margarita pizza was bland. Quattro Formagio was very good, but honestly the pizza crust is just mediocre. Goat cheese cheesecake is unique & delicious!! Lemon/Blueberry cake is delicious too, although very dense. read more

First let me say I really enjoyed our experience here this evening. We sat on the third floor, right by the live music. We made a reservation earlier in the day and were surprised we had such an awesome table. The service was great and the building/location was very unique. However, it doesn't seem as though this place is handicap accessible which is really unfortunate because everyone should be able to enjoy it. That said, it was raining tonight and chilly, so we didn't have the opportunity to sit outside but definitely will be returning to do so when it gets warmer! We started with a brie app, for our mains I had the pasta on rotation and added chicken and my husband had the meatballs, and we shared the lemon blueberry cake for dessert! The brie was a little sweet for our liking (between the raspberry jam and cinnamon sugar on the crostini). The meatballs were good and the pasta was good (the sauce was really rich for me so couldn't eat too much). The dessert and wine were the highlights! Frankly I wasn't overly impressed with the food but the wine and dessert was awesome! Everyone around us was getting dessert too and their choices looked awesome too! Next time I think we would come for a bottle of wine and dessert and to take in the ambiance of the place (because it's really awesome, especially with live music)! We will 100% be back! read more

This was my first visit to Vino Villa Bistro and Wine Bar. The restaurant is located in a beautifully renovated, historic three story house on Madison Avenue in Greenwood. Free parking is located behind the restaurant and you'll see the patio next to the building as you approach the front entrance. What I quickly found out is all seating is upstairs on the second and third floors. If you have mobility issues keep this in mind as patio seating, weather permitting, is the only dining area without stairs. They don't have a traditional bar setup but bar seating (21+) is located on the 3rd floor and open when the weather isn't conducive for the outdoor patio. My friend and I were warmly greeted as we entered and taken directly to a cozy dining room on the second floor. Our server was prompt, friendly, answered questions, removed dirty dishes quickly and never rushed us. They offer over 20 plus wines that change daily along with local craft beers from Oaken Barrel, Sun King and Upland with rotating draft taps. My friend tried both flavors of Sangria and enjoyed both. The Menu offers amazing Sharableable Appetizers, delicious Salads (add steak, chicken or mahi-mahi $5), many Sandwiches (Lobster Roll, Brie Grilled Cheese, Chicken Salad, Stuffed Portobello Mushroom and Prime Rib are a few). 10" Pizzas are made on a homemade crust and gluten free crust is available on any of the 5 pizzas. Entrees all sound delicious with Lobster Mac n' Cheese, Meatballs, Lasagna and Rotating Pasta (dinner only) to name a few. We shared the delicious Spicy Crab Dip with lump crabmeat in a creamy dip blended with melted cheeses, garlic and spices served with warm garlic bread and crostini. It was wonderful and we both could have probably eaten another, it was that good. I forgot to take a picture as we drove right in. My friend had the Caprese Salad topped with the blackened mahi-mahi. The salad ingredients were fresh plus the mahi-mahi was tender and seasoned well. I decided to have an appetizer as my lunch instead of a sandwich or entree. I had the Baked Brie served with raspberry preserves and their cranberry maple walnut crostini's. The brie was hot and creamy plus incredible on their special crostini. The only reason I didn't rate as a 5 star is the stair issue. I have difficulty with stairs and a true fear of falling; otherwise, I would have rated a 5. Everything was so good that I look forward to returning soon to try other items on the menu. read more

This must be a very bad place to work. The server and the hostess that sat us had very sad and unhappy looks on their faces. Never smiled, never introduced herself. Asked if tea was fresh brewed, it was clearly not - tasted like store bought Gold Peak. When ordering the Caesar's salad we asked how the chicken was prepared and waitress said grilled. Well the salad came out in a small bowl with cold (not grilled) rubbery tasteless chicken. I questioned the waitress - she didn't care. We asked for lemons- no lemons. Mahi sliders were ok, bruschetta tasted spoiled. A few years ago I said I'd never come back, but I was in the area and thought maybe things were better. I was wrong! It's worse than last time. More than the food, it's the cold unfriendly staff that made us feel unwelcome. Table beside us said the same thing. Lastly, the young girl / hostess who looked miserable was dressed like she was going to the beach - nothing about this place says class, care or customer service. The food or service is not the reason to come here. Must be the wine that draws people in. We'll never be back. read more

This was a tough one to give 3 stars to as I love the concept and the food is good! I love that this restaurant is in an old house and you eat in the refurbished rooms. The "date night" special was also very fairly priced and made for a great meal. I did find the filet a bit under seasoned, but the lobster was great. The stars being lost come with the tables being really close together and the server we had. She was not very attentive and forgot to even ask us how we wanted the steak cooked (luckily came out about medium rare as I would want it anyways), she also did not as about our dessert choice someone just brought one, and at first has double charged us on the bill. I cannot completely fault the restaurant and think a different server would have help make this maybe five stars or at least four. read more
