Great food, rather artisan, and expensive, but if you like pretension and being talked down to wile ordering then you will love it too. The food is seriously great. The staff is seriously snobby. Good beer selection and decent wine, wood fire pizza made In the lobby is for real legit amazingly good. Hear the lunch specials are well priced and massive. Nice design and lighting, nice bathrooms, odd parking lot. Appears to be the local spot to grab a parent dinner without the kids. Bring your sense of humor to deal with the specials speach and dirty looks for not getting the highest priced items when you order.

Great restaurant and a good atmosphere. I love this place we have been twice and they make a great cappuccino!!! I normally get veal, its delicious. However the seafood is not the best... it alright but for a true seafood lover its not what theyre craving. Our server Nicole was AMAZING!!!! However it seemed like she was doing everything. She was waiting on most of the tables and taking care of the bar. All things considered this is a great place to go for a special occasion. Also, the serving sizes are great, nothing tiny.

One of those perfect little neighborhood places, Italian in theme but cozy, perfectly lit, with a fine menu- several "standards", more than a few New Ideas, and they serve a Full Entrée OR "Tapas" sized plate- we opted to try several dishes in Tapas size and it was perfect for us- Davis, our waiter, was attentive, personable and knowledgeable, made good suggestions and brought everything while it was Still HOT- (a definite novelty in most other restaurants) We will definitely return, Groupon or not!

Love this place. Have been there several times. They do a lunch buffet thats wonderful and unique; the chef was making pizzas to order on the buffet and fresh pasta. The dessert portions were small, but the waitress smiled and encouraged me to go for seconds, making me feel less self conscious about the two dessert plates already in front of me. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Especially if you like happy hour - good wines at happy hour for like $4 or $5 a glass if I recall.

We had been wanting to try Vino since reading the review in The Shopper and finally went last night. Everything was excellent from the menu to the decor to the fantastic service we received from our server, Nicole! We had the Salmone and Penne Ala Vodka and finished our meal with authentic espresso and cappuccino with Frangelico. The music set the mood for a perfect experience. Cant wait to go back!

Absolutely love this place. Went here with my family a few weeks ago, and went today with my husband for the lunch buffet. Service was top notch both times, prices were extremely reasonable, and food was great. Happy hour was from 3 to 7 and they had a great beer selection and a decent wine selection for the happy hour. Will absolutely patronize this place frequently!

On this outside it just looks like another restaurant but the second you step inside you are transported to another world where everything tastes delicious. And amazing service still exists. This is hands down the best restaurant in town. If you havent been go there right now and try any of their dishes. You wont be disappointed.

“Wonderful Wine Dinner” We went to Vino for their French wine dinner about a week ago and it was definitely one of a kind. The wines were very tasty and the food that was paired with each wine was amazing. The Scallops were by far my favorite but the braised rabbit was something I would have never expected to taste so good.

My first visit was for Mothers Day brunch, the food was delicious. However, they opened 13 minutes late and was not quite prepared. Plus, they could not keep up with the food, the dishes were empty quite often. But I would definitely come back maybe just not on such a busy day. The service was good.

Have been here several times and never once disappointed. From appetizers to main course everything is prepared to perfection and served with exceptional service. Atmosphere reminds me of the Italian restaurant of my youth growing up in the Italian area of Akron, Ohio. A true Chesapeake treasure!

I had been here for a business lunch several months ago. I wanted to catch up with some family that I missed during the holidays. The food was very good. I had the combo with pork tenderloin and my uncle had a combination

Another fabulous dining experience, due to great food, wine and atmosphere. Nicole was wonderful at the bar where we sat for dinner and thoroughly engaging afterwards. Vino is a Chesapeake "must do" dining experience!

Great for date night. Dark, but not overly dark ambiance. Really good food at a fair price (most $15-20). Excellent service team that works together as a unit. We will be coming back for a future quaint night out.

Lunch, dinner, casual or family night out, dont miss the best spot for Ribs, BBQ, Jerk and many other Carribean favorites. I have to have this at least once every couple weeks! Go now and stop passing it by.

The only reason for not going here more often is that the place is very busy! Good service, good prices, and good food equals a full house on many evenings.. good for luch or dinner!

Such a great local spot for seafood and a cocktail, closer than driving to the oceanfront for shrimp and a crush! We love going to this relaxed bar with awesome atmosphere.

Our first visit. Food was excellent and the staff was very polite. 1/2 price wine on Tuesday was quite a find. Highly recommend Vino. I will definitely return.
