I was gifted a Groupon voucher to this shop, and while I'm not much of a wine drinker, I was…read moreexcited to stop by when I learned they carry a large selection of other types of drinks, snacks, and specialty cheeses. My husband and I honestly took forever browsing and reading labels. The store manager was incredibly patient with us, even though we probably stayed way too long talking about the cheeses we wanted to try and reading through their recommended pairings pamphlet. She was so knowledgeable and helpful with all of our questions, and even mentioned that they could specialty order anything that might be out of stock for us. Because you can buy their cheese by the 1/4lb, we ended up mixing and matching a selection of five different cheeses and a few cured meats to sample. Everything was absolutely delicious, and they have some really unique flavors available. The wild ramp alpine cheddar was so different to anything I had before, and the truffle manchego cheese was completely packed with so much truffle. The shop is currently celebrating their 10 year anniversary, and I can absolutely see why. Between the incredibly friendly, helpful service and a thoughtfully curated selection of artisanal goods, it's no surprise this business is thriving. This will definitely be my new go-to spot for gifts!

So grateful I went here beforehand and had an impressive, beautiful, delicious wine to indulge and relate over. Always recommending coming here. Tasting every Saturday night. Inexpensive, wine of good value. And good company. Always greeted with kindness and warmth. What more could you ask for?

Vienna Vintner is a cute European looking line standing building across from big shopping plazas. It's built like a tavern with a partial loft/second floor upstairs with seating. The space is divided into a "tasting room" on the right and a wine store on the left. They apparently have wine tastings on the regular (I've been missing out!) Overall a really friendly place that's relaxed and pleasant. We were given a tour and helped immediately. We ended up winning an award for one of our wine choices, so these recommendations really hit the mark! Will definitely be back. I was also surprised by how affordable these wines are. I wasn't expecting to find any wines under $25 but ended up seeing quite a few in the $15 range. They also gave us a generous discount.

We had an incredible experience celebrating a birthday at Evelyn Rose!…read more The menu is exciting, seasonal, and features a TON of local options and farms- you can taste the difference. We decided to start by sharing the wagyu carpaccio, the fried green tomatoes, and an appetizer portion of the cavatelli- I really like that you can do appetizer portions of both pastas on rotation on the menu here. We were also brought two pieces of focaccia with incredibly flavorful olive oil (yum!). The cavatelli and the fried green tomatoes were standouts for us, the pasta had a great chew and the bolognese was really flavorful. The fried green tomatoes came topped with a pimento cheese that was incredible. For our entrees, we opted for the braised bison shoulder and the scallops. The scallops were perfectly prepared and were a very generous portion. The bison shoulder was so tender and the accompaniments were incredible- this was a perfect fall dish. We also got the charred sweet summer corn, which was delicious and came studded with the lightest goat cheese, and rustic Old Bay potatoes, which were absolutely perfectly fried and came with a side of some honey mustard. We took a good amount of the sides home and they held up for a day or two! I was really impressed with the wine list here- there were a lot of solid options. The champagne in particular was excellent (and I am picky!). Our server, who I believe was Riley, really made it a special night. He was so attentive and had excellent suggestions. One touch that was so thoughtful was that we had declined dessert because we would be having birthday cake later, but mentioned that the banana tres leches sounded so good. He brought over a scoop of the banana ice cream that's typically on top of that dessert with a candle in it! It was so kind of him to listen to us but still recognize that it was a special occasion- and it was some of the best ice cream I've had in a long time (he said it is made in house every day with duck eggs, it was so rich and flavorful). We have already booked our return reservation here! Thanks to Evelyn Rose for a wonderful night with such memorable food.

We started with the seared octopus with chorizo, tomato couli and parsnip purée. Beautifully presented and delicious. I ordered the cavatelli with fresh ricotta and meatballs. It was really good.

The steak was cooked perfectly and the fries were so good! We passed on dessert as I couldn't even finish my meal. It was all quite good. The service was high end. Ashley was very attentive and our water glasses were never empty. We will definitely be back!

Yet Richmond still has its hands on making Virginia residents pay more for alcohol. If you want booze in VA, not beer or wine, this is where you go in the commonwealth, due to it being a government operation. Nothing against the employees, whom at this one are polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. They were great helping me find what a relative likes. This is a new store location. As you can see in the pictures, they are trying to have it fit in with private retail. That's nice but prices here are high due to Richmond's involvement. I will say they have a pretty good selection, and this stores never too busy. For the Tyson's area that's impressive. If you need that whiskey or vodka for an event, this could be a place for you. Please don't drink and drive.

I e come to this store in particular a couple of times before, and I e always found that they have the best prices for just about any type of beer and wine. In fact, the prices are much lower than any convenience store price. This is especially true for the beer case prices. We picked-up a case of Coors and a case of Heineken for at least 20% less than what we would normally pay at a grocery store. The selection here is also much more robust than anywhere else. They even have a cigar section of all things! I like to shop here especially for those special occasions. They always have had everything in stock that I need.
