I had to take an emergency trip to Richmond because my 103 year old grandmother's nursing home had not delivered her meals in five days. I walked in to place a take out order for her and was told it would be 30 minutes. I explained, told them I couldn't wait, and went to leave, and this lovely man -- the chef's son -- stopped me and told me that he would rush it. Ten minutes later, he delivered the hot meal to me. The food was great, but I couldn't appreciate the service more. These are really good people. Thank you, thank you for making a really frustrating day better.
One of RICHMOND's establishments for many years owned by the family. The Greek mixture with the Italian entrées is unbelievable. I can't get enough of their gluten-free Greek spaghetti because I can never get enough of it. I'm going to get really fat anyway it's delicious. The food is wonderful and the family is so warm and entertaining that you could just go ahead and get some at the bar to eat and feel like part of the family
The Grapevine is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Richmond. I've only had the Greek food because it's unbelievably delicious, and I haven't been able to get myself to shift to their Italian food which I'm sure is also spectacular! The service is out of this world as well, and so great that the last time, after we'd finished dinner, we asked to see the owner to praise our server. She was so sweet, attentive and funny that we'll ask for her again. We're going to The Grapevine again this week. Can't wait!!!!!
Absolutely amazing service! We waited at the bar for our table for only a few minutes on a very busy night, and were checked on many times and offered bread while we waited. The food was absolutely amazing, but the staff are clearly what makes this place great! They clearly work very hard to give customers a great experience. Definitely a great date night option, best service we have ever had anywhere, hands down.
The food here has always been a huge hit with me and my family. They have some wonderful soups as well. The ambiance is very classy and a great date spot.
While the website indicated they didn't take reservations, I guess for mother's day they did? This review took a while because I thought I had already reviewed, but I'm still so happy with the experience. There was no answer by phone except for once when I was picked up but never greeted and after 3 minutes of listening to the sound of a busy restaurant, I went in person to ask for a table. It was the day before mothers day and apparently there was a wedding, other mothers, and a prom going on. Even with all that going on, the service was still incredible! We did have to wait about 2 hours for a table, but again, there was a lot going on that night. The bar was serving while we waited and both the drinks and food were excellent! Well worth the price! I also very much enjoyed the live music while we ate. It wasn't audible from outside or near the front, but where we were eating on the coveted terrace it was wonderful.
Came in on a Wednesday during lunch and ordered the Mother Mary Special ($14). It was a spaghetti dish with grilled chicken, feta, mozzarella cheese. The pasta was cooked very well and tasted buttery and cheesy on top. Chicken was seasoned well and moist. This was a big serving where you could have enough leftover for a second meal. Staff and interior was nice. A very nice Italian/Greek restaurant to go. Overall a great experience here, I would definitely come back again to try other dishes! Food: 8.0 Staff/service: 7.0 Value: 7.5 Overall: 7.7/10
This was a really good Greek/Italian spot. We started with the flaming cheese. Highly recommend it if you've never had it at any Greek restaurant before. I ordered the baked spaghetti and my girlfriend ordered the chicken Alfredo. The baked spaghetti ended up being a little lackluster from what I was expecting in my head. It really just tasted like cheap grocery store spaghetti with meat sauce and cheese that was baked in the oven. The chicken fettuccine Alfredo was definitely better. I ordered a Greek beer and it was good and light. The service was pretty good here. Our waitress was attentive and got us anything we needed. The ambiance was super cozy. It had a bunch of Greek and Italian decorations all over the restaurant and patio. We ate outside on the covered patio and it was beautifully setup. I liked the vines and decorations they had setup. We're not Richmond natives but we'd recommend it to anyone who is. We probably would get Greek food if we came back in the future to see if it is better than the Italian.
You would never expect a Greek restaurant to have some of the best pizza around, but the Grapevine does not disappoint. They have a dedicated gluten free menu, which includes their pizzas. The grilled chicken was absolutely delicious and and they don't skimp on the toppings. I highly recommend giving it a try. The restaurant has an upscale casual vibe, lots of space inside, and friendly staff. I'm looking forward to returning and trying other items on the menu.
