Vina Enoteca

We had a lovely meal with truly spectacular service unlike any I have had since before the pandemic. We had no room for dessert, but I would advise you to save some appetite for the ingenious dessert selections.
Overall we had an amazing dining experience and will come again.

Loved this spot. Can’t wait to visit again! The vintage amaro selection was so cool.

We came for a work event and the food was awesome. Our event had a set menu and the feedback from the table was that all three entrees were wonderful. We had the Doppio, the Halibut, and the short ribs. The halibut was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. Appetizers were also wonderful. Arancini de Riso was so good! I will come back to sample more of the menu!

Incredible pasta and pizza, and a fun-to-explore wine list with lots of Italian varietals. Service was also great. Plenty of outdoor seating with heat lamps. Everything on the menu sounded delicious so am excited to go back.

I love this place! We usually sit at the bar so that we can chat with the bartender. This time the bar was closed for a private event (which was totally fine since it was in late December). We got to try a table for two and we found it a bit too deep. We were too far away from each other and had to speak loudly to hear each other over the background noise. So not the best spot in the house for a private conversation. Will def go back and have dinner at the bar next time. Excellent food and fast service.

Amazing, surprisingly quick service, Alberto was super nice and accommodating. Great selection of both unique and authentic dishes, and a plethora of drinks (more than I can name). Food was amazing, with some great tasting pasta and one of the best pizza crusts I’ve ever had! Ambiance is superb as well; both outdoors and indoors. Definitely recommend for a great night out.

A lovely Palo Alto setting, with a European flair. The food has their unique spin on it - deliciously familiar, yet new. The use a ton of local ingredients.

They have a big bar in the back, with every drink known to humankind.

There are many different options for seating. On most days in California, you might prefer the wonderful patio.

Kudos to the chef using fresh local ingredients and combining them in creative ways. Halibut and spring pea salad with purée were delicious. And don’t go without having the panna cotta. The atmosphere is lively yet relaxing.

Everything was great! Ambience (holiday spirit), staff, service, food, choice of wine…. Amazing! This place is also good for large groups, apparently there are a lot of space and many opportunities to have different sizes of tables.

Had a great experience when visiting on a Friday evening at 7pm without a reservation. We quickly got a table and got prompt service.

They offer cocktails (~$15) both with and without alcohol. I can highly recommend "Last Stand" (Gin, Aperol, Prosecco & perchaud Bitters) or the blood orange mocktail.

We had two homemade pasta dishes that were both really tasty (Bolognese & cacio et pepe) and finished with a tiramisu shared between the two of us.

The tiramisu was served in a small bowl which sadly meant a high cream to ladyfingers ratio. Still tasty but could have been better.

Altogether we paid $130 incl tax and tip.

Good ambiance and service. I really enjoyed the Tortelloni Verdi and the Bolognese. The Gnocco Fritto Prosciutto was a bit on the heavy side though. Margherita pizza was good and what you'd expect.

Good food, ambiance, impossible burger, outside dining. Happy hour. Please note 5-stars is relative to all dining options in the area - the food is really terrific, with fresh, locally sourced seasonal dishes.
We were there during happy hour and got to try some items not on the full menu - and at discount, such as the focaccia, which is more like a flatbread and I highly recommend. We ate it too fast to photo!
Our main objective in coming here was to try the impossible burger since my husband is a vegetarian and hasn't had a "burger" in years. Though it did not taste like meat, (this was a positive since he worried it would be too much like meat!) the look and texture were really impressive and it did not disappoint. We absolutely loved it and will go back for sure.
We added a lovely side salad that had unique vegetables finley sliced that gave it a slight crunch. Our server did a great job of describing the salad and had recommended it to us. We paired our meal with the ever so delicious Angels and Cowboys Healdsburg Rose. The perfect summer wine!

One of my favorites for upscale dining in Palo Alto! Delicious, simple (yet exquisite) dishes, lovely cocktails/beverage options, with a lovely location/ambiance, and great service — what more could you ask for!? I always adore the cacio e pepe 😍😍

Amazing food and the owners is always personable and available to answer questions. The homemade pastas are spectacular. Great wine selection too!

Great food, service and atmosphere. The staff was amazing and the food was phenomenal!

This place is amazingly good. The ambiance, the food, the warm and loving hospitality, cocktails
And dessert were all incredible. Great for sharing love and celebration. Definitely will be back. Thanks Rocco and Kiran and team for making our evening special.

Food was great, and service is prompt. The lunch menu is bare-bones with few options for meat eaters, and the portion size is fairly small but It was really good.

Also I ordered their lentil soup, which unknown to me is served cold. I did not like nor eat the soup, and without my asking the server took it off my check which I thought was nice.

Italian with a limited, but very flavorful menu. House made pizza and pasta is fantastic. Nice ambiance. Good cocktails.

This restaurant was truly unbelievable. The food was amazing. I'm so glad we came here. Do not miss trying this place.

Had a wonderful experience on a date with my wife! Menu is small but food is delicious. The choice of Italian wines is also great. Highly recommended.
