We were able to get a table for 3 on a Friday night without reservation. A nice stop on the way to Napier. Delicious onion soup. Shared plates are enough for 3. Good service and front of house is appreciated.
The menu is well put together. Obvious care has been taken with regard to flavours and presentation.
All dietary restrictions are well labeled, and the waiting staff were happy to double check things.
Staff were efficient, knowledgeable and friendly.
Beautiful setting lots to look at, food was expensive but tasty literally has hundreds of wines to choose from good place to go for drinks we had a set menu as we're with a big group was nice and fancy 🙂
Updated Review: we recently attended what has become an annual group meal at Vine Bar. Once again a great experience though we would have loved to have had the Vintage Room again! (Hopefully next time!). Lee remembered our group which made us feel very welcome, we were given amazing service and exce
Amazing food & fast to come out. Our waiter was the most delightful South African gentleman called Perfect and he absolutely was! The cocktails were delicious. I recommend the espresso martini. Will be back. Only note is it was a tad loud. We did struggle to talk to the waiter and also each other.
Wow. This was some of the best food I have ever tasted. The quality was absolutely top notch. Price was very reasonable for how amazing the food was. Huge compliments to the chefs. The service my wife and I received was fantastic as well. Super friendly and extremely professional. Full table service
Always a pleasure to come here. Attentive friendly staff and we had a fab meal.
Highly recommend the French onion soup and the scallop chorizo and spinach risotto.
And I’ve discovered a great new NZ Chenin Blanc. Yes I’m taking about you Sea Level Nelson.

Amazing place!! They gave me a free entree for a mistake that wasn’t even their fault in the first place! Highly recommend. Really good staff and food is equally amazing!
Vine Eatery and Bar was surprisingly busy for a Sunday evening. But a table was found for us, and our lovely evening began. The atmosphere was elegant but relaxed, the wine by the glass choice was extensive, the staff friendly, efficient and knowledgable, helping us to match wine choices with food.
This week a group of 12 of us booked the upstairs venue at Vine for an annual dinner celebration.
The food was astonishing. The service exceptional.
Atmosphere celebratory.
I need an excuse to go back and share the experience with others.
We both really enjoyed what we ordered the scallop risotto and the salmon were excellent. I ordered the large size and it was enough but barely and I am not a big eater. Seems like a trendy place and I imagine that is part of the upvotes.
Great spot for dinner, service was friendly and very quick. The food was presented well and very delicious. Great menu with lots of choices.
The atmosphere was good, everyone was having a good time and wasn’t too loud within the restaurant.
Definitely recommend visiting.
I have eaten here twice and every time it has been great. Yesterday was amazing and our waiter Perfect was outstanding. The food was so delicious and the menu extensive.
Food was excellent, couldn't fault it one bit. Waiter service was very good. Glad we boked early however we really wanted to experience dessert but waited more than 30mins after finishing mains and then was told they didn't know how long dessert might take so we decided to finish there. Disappointe
Recently visited for dinner and must say it amazing. I had the grilled prawn as entre and eye fillet bacon wrapped and both were perfect well cooked and very flavoursome. Staff were also great, we walked in with no booking on a Friday night. Only small detraction was my fondant didn't ooze chocolate
One of my absolute favourite restaurants ever- and I don’t even in Taupo. Best tapas I’ve come across but all their meals are fantastic. The ambience and interior is just delightful and the service is impeccable. As too are the wines and cocktails. Everything is done so well and this place is beyond
Had a Cajun fried soft-shell crab and a seared scallop risotto. Both were great, especially the crab. Always great staff, who were running around like busy bees.
Very busy night so was glad I booked a table the day before.
We had a delightful evening with our good friends from Taupo. They, like us, had never eaten dinner at The Vines, but once in Annette’s capable hands we had a fabulous evening of wining, dining and cocktails, followed by some equally especial desserts. What a fantastic night. We will definitely be b
