Vine Bar London in Lambeth

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. The atmosphere is cozy, impeccably clean, and gives an authentic Italian charm. The wine selection was impressive, and it perfectly complemented the flavors of the evening. The food was absolutely delicious. I have to give special praise to the chef Dariusz for the lasagna with their special chili divinz oil. Fedorah, was a delight. She was incredibly kind, and attentive, ensuring every part of our experience was smooth and enjoyable. Favor, was a true professional. Not only was he knowledgeable about the menu and wine pairings, but his warm demeanor made us feel right at home. His service was prompt, thoughtful, and flawless. Roberto the owner is funny, genuine, and full of high spirits. His passion for the restaurant was evident in every interaction. The entire staff was caring and invested in making our evening memorable. The vibes were excellent from start to finish, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

Favour and Fedorah are amazing hosts and so super wonderful. Roberto is an excellent warm owner and we loved the chef too. Why do we know everyones names? Because they were so kind and personable ❤️ Absolutely awesome place it's amazing we will keep returning

Very nice and welcoming place! Excellent cuisine with quality ingredients, dishes made according to true Italian tradition.

Went there on the 21. And 23. of august 2024. Roberto and the crew showed us a great time! 10/10 Italian cuicine + a very good wine menu.

If you want to eat truly Italian, I recommend this place. It's a piece of Italy in London. Great food, great service and a nice place. I had the mushroom risotto and the tiramisu. Optimal.

I am really happy that I spent tonight in this lovely Italian restaurant! The owner was a great host, and made us feel like we are in Italy! The atmosphere was really cozy and sweet, and there is nothing to say about the food. Everything was super delicious and fresh. I would definitely recommend and hopefully I will be back to try more foods. Thank you so much again for this lovely evening!

I apparently used the wrong door on entering, this was due to a neurodivergent condition. A man with grey hair and waistcoat rushed over, accusing me of using the wrong door and that I had been rude. I had literally just walked in. I have visited thousands of restaurants and this is the worst experience I've ever had

We stopped by on the way to Hamilton the musical. Completely random. The best very large olives we have ever tasted. Added to the great wine we consumed, happy people. Staff very helpful and friendly. Please visit.

Fantastic food and perfect service. Italian owner 👌

Fantastic food. Real Italian food. Their pasta is perfection. I lived in Florence for a year and the food here is comparable. Great service. The owner wants you to have a great time and a fabulous meal. Their dessert is also excellent and I recommend getting the vine panna cotta. Servings are big and prices reasonable!

I honestly do not know what I liked the most between the food and the service! We happend to stumble across the resturant right when the kitchen closed but they made special accomidations for us and let us order anyway. We ordered the Del Mama and the forest ravioli and they we're delicious! Our waiter also recommended us a fantastic wine and stopped by often to make sure everything was perfect. We also had the pleasure to meet the owner and he was (unsurprisingly) as great as the rest of the resturant. Highly recommend!

The food here is absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend the Vine Bar London and the fantastic "panna cotta"!

Great food and wine. Highly recommended.

One of the best restaurants I've been to in London. Perfect food. Exceptional service. Amazing experience.

Expected above average, but it’s outstanding!

A beautiful hidden gem with fabulous staff and brilliant menu. All staff were friendly and made our meal special. Wine list is crazy! It is an the expensive side but the quality of food wine and service makes it worth it. Shout out to our waiter who made our dinner extra special, you crazy dude.

We ate there last night (Sat 25/5) and it was lovely. Great food and the team were so friendly! Pasta delicious and the Tiramsu devine! Thank you for a great evening 😊

Great service friendly helpful and knowledgeable, food was lovely great choice wine, reasonably priced a small quiet venue may need to book

We headed out for an early dinner last night, very jet-lagged after a long flight. Vine Bar was nearby our Airbnb at St George’s Wharf, so we gave it a go and we were not disappointed. The host Roberto and his staff were friendly and accommodating, it’s not a huge place (which I like) and the atmosphere is cosy and authentic. It’s got a cool jazz vibe going on. The champion though is the food. There were four of us and we all agree everything we ate was top quality and delicious. I personally recommend the Risotto Ai Funghi and the Salsiccia E Patate (pork sausages and potatoes), but all the dishes we chose were amazing including the Tonno Alla Puttanesca, the Gnocchi, the Forest Egg Ravioli, the TIRAMISU! Well done chef. The bar has a great wine selection but because we wanted an early night we just had a couple of the Italian beers called Nazionale, which we really enjoyed. Our host even offered us a free liqueur at the end of our meal. Thank you gentlemen. We hope to see you again during our stay.

The "Italian Vine" tour is an experience second to none. Roberto, the host, is worth the price alone...let alone the fantastic food and wine throughout the night.

amazing Italian people..and food!!

Aww, what an adventure this place. They organise classic Italian Aperitivo events every month where they will offer free food nibbles with your wine or cocktails. It's so much fun and guests are happy to mingle. It feels so cozy and homey. Can't wait to visit again.

The owner and staff were very welcoming and engaging. The food was freshly cooked and tasty. Recommended.

Absolutely incredible. Food was top notch and the waiters/owner were very friendly. Thank you!

En week-end à Londres, nous avons trouvé ce charmant petit resto qui se trouvait juste à côté de notre logement et n'avons pas été déçus. Excellentes pâtes, lasagnes, belle carte des vins italiens.. Ambiance décontractée...Je recommande vivement

On a weekend in London, we found this charming little restaurant which was next to our accommodation and were not disappointed. Excellent pasta, lasagna, great Italian wine list.. Relaxed atmosphere...I highly recommend

Amazing food, fresh pasta and incredible atmosphere! If you’re looking for fresh and authentic Italian food this is ✨the✨ place. If you eat meat I cannot recommend the carbonara enough (especially with a dash of Chili Divine - the owner’s incredible chili oil brand 😍). Trust me, the food and wine here will change your life.

The absolute LEGENDS, oh my god…the oasta melted in my mouth and i’ve never wanted to go back to a place so bad. I literally CRAVE the carbonara, ask for a little chilli oil to go with it. The best i’ve ever had. Cant wait to go back.

A little hidden gem. Fantastic food and service

Excellent Italian food….infinity selection of top Italian wine ….amazing staff…that cares about you every single moment …I will sure come back !!!! Congratulations

Superb evening spent at Vine Bar! From entering the place to leaving, everything was spot on. The food is delicious, the atmosphere very nice and relaxes and the staff is just sensational (many small gestures that we rarely find but that make the experience memorable) I highly recommend going and will definitely be back!

We initially intended to only come in for a glass of wine but ended up staying for a long time. The atmosphere was very welcoming and relaxed and we thoroughly enjoyed our wine and cheeses. They also sell amazing products there, such as tuna in olive oil from Sicily. I'm sure we'll be back soon!

Cozy, intimate Italian bistro with simple, classic menu and excellent execution. There’s a semi open kitchen where everything is freshly made, and only a few tables. The service is a little slow but attentive. The appetizer plate and sweet shrimp carpaccio were refreshing to start with and the carbonara and lasagne were very fresh, flavorful and delicious. Great date spot.

Incredibly friendly from booking to payment. Delicious food and wine and a great night

Thank you for a great evening Jemma and Favor made us feel at home! T

Amazing and delicious food, fantastic service and great atmosphere

Superb Italian food, with a real difference! Booking recommended, as it is a small restaurant …but very cute!

Extremely good place, fantastic dinner with our family. They recommended for our kids and for us and the pasta was fantastic. Nice dinner and the wine list also very good. A place to go for sure. My daughter forgot her tablet and they kept it safe for us. Perfect place for us and to recommend. We will come back for sure. Thank you!

This is a delicious Italian restaurant. The main classics are on the menu, as well as some thought provoking dishes. We had a sharing board to start, followed by the most exquisitely delicate and sumptuous sea bream sharing plate. My husband had the gelato with cherries, scummy. I had the....wait for it....basil panna cotta! It sounds so wrong, but tasted sooooo good.

Really good Italian with an intimate wine bar ambiance and also a good Italian Resturant good - delicious anti pasta and cheese platter followed by excellent pastas. Roberto is a wonderful host and recommended some very good and original Italian wines. We had a really enjoyable evening! Thank you!

A wonderful evening. Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend.

Nice experience with a good wine with close friends

I wrote a defamatory review here on vine bar London and would now like to apologise as I was clearly mistaken. I was unfortunately wrong in my statements and judgements and am using this opportunity to apologise for them on the same social media platform I originally made the comments, as suggested by their solicitor. I apologise for my comments and misguidedness in this matter.

Sadly after reading the excellent reviews we were very disappointed. The gnocchi was straight from the freezer, we saw it coming out ! The dishes were all lacking flavour and taste. Our main dishes came out separately so found ourselves watching each other eat ! and they weren’t busy. Reading the other reviews, I felt we must be in the wrong restaurant or they have a new inexperienced chef.

Delicious and authentic Italian food and service was excellent! We’ll be back

Excellent food - the lightest, most delicious Italian food we’ve experienced outside of Italy. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with welcoming hosting by Roberto. The beautiful music from guitarist Andrew Scott also contributed to the lovely convivial atmosphere. This is a really special place, well worth travelling out of your way for.

Absolutely outstanding restaurant. This is the kind of owner/operator restaurant that is missing in my life. One where the person who serves you actually cares. The food was incredible and the wine out off this world. I’ll be back, again and again.

Roberto strode up to us looking every bit the young Vito Corleone, in jeans, nice jacket and white shirt, poured my wine, shook my hand and introduced himself as the owner. We were in good hands. The food was delicious and the wine list excellent. We will be back!

The best lasagne I've tasted in a long time, combined with a calm atmosphere with jazz playing in the background.

Went here for a family meal. All 6 really enjoyed what we had. Staff were knowledgeable and really friendly. A big hello to Roberto who was the owner. Really nice guy and obviously his warmth has rubbed off on his staff.

This was a great find on a recent visit to The Oval for business. It was a google search that led me to the restaurant, which happened to be across the road from where I was staying. Everything about this place is fantastic. I was very well looked after and the food was wonderful. Also the service was top notch. You can tell that the owners and all the staff really care about what they do, and it shows with lovely food made from quality ingredients. This find made my stay, and I hope I get the chance to go back to try more of the menu. Thanks to all at Vine Bar London.

As a long standing customer of the Vine Bar, I can confidently say their service, hospitality, and quality of food have consistently been phenomenal. Roberto, the owner, is very involved with the restaurant ensuring the experience and food are prepared to the best quality for each customer. If you’re seeking authentic Italian recipes with ingredients sourced from Italy, this is your spot.

Great place for dinner, really good food.

Very very tasty homemade food! Perfekt for a date og family diner. Beautifull place and bakground music 👍

My boyfriend and I stopped in after dinner for tiramisu and it was so lovely! Such a cozy spot with super friendly staff.

The best Italian food we’ve had in London. Absolutely fantastic service with friendly staff, and the loveliest space and atmosphere (the limoncello is divine!). Definitely a must for people visiting Vauxhall and Nine Elms area.

It is such an inviting, intimate space with stellar food and service; the best gnocchi I’ve ever had. You’ll feel cared for. A lovely stop after a busy London day.

Vinebar is a delightfully authentic Italian restaurant, nestled at street-level of the apartments at St George Wharf, Vauxhall. The menu offers a medley of appetisers, Primi, Secondi, and Entrees with some tasty desserts to follow. The wine list is extensive with choices to suit all budgets. Roberto, the Managing Director, takes time to talk with guests at each table, and is wonderfully passionate about his Italian cuisine. His energies clearly rub off to the rest of his staff, who are diligent, personable, and attentive. Our thanks to Roberto, Tristan, and Pauline for making our evening, so enjoyable!

We went here for a dinner based on the very positive reviews in TripAdvisor, but we can’t see why people raved. The service was friendly, however, and the ambience was quite nice, but the restaurant was almost empty and the food expensive for what it was. The sparkling water (75 cl) was £4.90! The carbonara was ok but the bolognese was pretty tasteless. Overall, nice place but the food isn’t great and is expensive

Great work night out at the Vine Bar, great food & Roberto’s staff are all great & engaging, would highly recommend a visit

The most charming and cozy Italian experience you will have in all of London! Beautiful ambience, service, food and music, with an amazing Italian wine list. Roberto, who is super knowledgeable, will explain everything in great detail. Also, the place is immaculate. Anytime we have friends visit from out of town, we take them there, and they always love it! A true hidden gem!

Un repas d’une très bonne qualité. Des vins excellents. La serveuse et le patron étaient super sympas. Un cadre très chaleureux. Nous recommandons sans problème.

Amazing place. Great atmosphere, friendly service, great wine and delicious food! Couldn’t recommend it more!

Super lækker Italiensk mad. Med super gode anbefalinger til mad og vin. De har virkelig meget lækker vin. Deres tiramisu var virkelig god. Tjenerne og ejeren var nærværende og gjorde det til en skøn aften. Bestil bord, da der er få pladser. Alt i alt en fantastisk oplevelse som kun kan anbefales.

A cozy, welcoming atmosphere at the end of a busy day! Our family of four (kids are young adults) enjoyed trying the interesting and delicious food and wines on the menu. The staff was so friendly, informative, and welcoming! We are tourists and still in our learning curve, they made us feel right at home!

We had the most amazing experience, our waiter was so attentive and really lovely. Wow the food was awesome, I had the risotto all a pescatora it was soo good, my husband had cianfotta e polenta which was scrumptious, my son had lasagna classica which I’m assured was delicious, my daughter in law had alle vignole which was delicious and our grandson had polpette al sugo which was equally good, an amazing experience all round and would highly recommend

Little Gem of a restaurant! My husband and I have been here many times, the service is friendly and hospitable and the food is absolutely divine. Great for a date night or a girls night too!

Gnocchi are so delicious, also the wine librandi is amazing

Really pleasant experience. Friendly, efficient service. Good food. Very good wine and relaxed atmosphere a short walk from Vauxhall transport interchange. Looking forward to going again.

What a wonderful evening. Authentic Italian, delicious food - an absolute must visit.

I immediately fell in love with this restaurant. Surely for the elegance of the place, the style is the unique and unmistakable one of the Italians. The food was of excellent quality and the staff was friendly and professional. The wine simply top!! In short,the best place to spend an evening with friends in Vauxhall

My favourite place with delicious food and an amazing service. Once you have been there you understand it 🙏 Small restaurant but with a great atmosphere and regular life music.

I planned to celebrate my birthday here and communicated with the owner Roberto to organise it. He was very helpful with organising a specific menu that met all the group’s dietary requirements. We were treated to a bottle of Prosecco which was a lovely treat. Food was delicious and service was very good. I had a very special time!

Our first time here and definitely last!My girlfriend was cold and wanted to keep her jacket but the manager took it from her and was very abrupt.He seemed very annoyed and we heard him shouting to staff during the evening.We were very uncomfortable.The food is just average but with Mayfair best restaurants prices. We waited ages to be served.Negative Vibes.

I recently had the pleasure of dining here and the pasta was delicious. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try.

What a lovely Italian restaurant😍 Pasta were in generous portion👍🏻 My carbonara was disappointing but my friend ordered the Tricolore and it was great! I would also recommend the tiramisu 💯 although it’s without alcohol, the flavour was rich! Staff are all Italian and we really like their energy and hospitality✨ Overall it’s a nice place if you want some authentic Italian pasta 🍝

The whole team made the night feel like an experience not just a meal! The food was delightful and the team were so welcoming. Best place in London for an authentic Italian meal! amen say less

One of the nicest experiences I’ve had out - highly recommend!

Best evening ever. If you want a full dining experience, get yourself here. Very friendly owners, lovely service and the best food!!!

10/10 Great food - great service - great atmosphere

Good food and great staff..never been disappointed here.

A magical little restaurant, couldn't fault the incredible food or wonderful service! Thank you for a great evening x

From the entry to the farewell, the service, food, interaction, value for time and money was exceptional.

Best restaurant ever, nicest staff, brilliant food. Overall incredible restaurant!!!

Beautiful people serving delicious food :)

Atmosfæren ved ankomst virket forsåvidt hyggelig, men den trange restauranten med den altfor høy live-musikken ødela raskt stemningen. Menyen så ok ut, men servitøren overtalte oss til å prøve "en fantastisk forrett med trøfler". Vi prøvde, nesten fordi vi ikke fikk lov til å¨velge selv, og den altfor dyre anbefalingen var det ingen av oss tre som likte. Da servitøren kom og spurte hva vi synes, svarte vi alle at vi ikke likte. Det gjorde tydeligvis ikke noe. Etter lang ventetid kom hovedretten. Med anbefalt vin, som vi ikke likte. Da fikk vi til svar at vi hadde valgt feil vin! To av oss synes hovedretten det var ok, en likte overhodet ikke retten. Vi betalte og gikk til en annen italiensk restaurant og spiste nydelig pizza. Min anbefaling: Styr unna!

Very friendly great food, which we had as a take-away. A bit pricey though and they forgot the salad dressing

The Vine Bar is a real gem - delicious and authentic Italian food, amazing service from friendly staff, a lovely atmosphere and all round a great experience. We had vegetarians and vegans in our party and all were catered for brilliantly. We had an amazing night thanks to the attentive and welcoming hosts. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

Such a hidden gem and such a charming little place, I loved it! From the moment you walk in, you feel like being at home. Nice & cozy atmosphere, fantastic customer service and proper Italian Food cooked to perfection! I had burrata as a starter...

Leuke gezellige taverne met heerlijke pasta gerechten.

The Vine will meet or exceed customer expectations. A memorable atmosphere for our first date :) Friendly, personalized service with great food & wine. Roberto, Irene, and Daryoush - thank you!!!

Booked a table via their website but then when we went in they said there’s no such a booking made. Probably miss communication? Generally very very slow service! Literally took more than 1hour for us to order bottle of wine. What a joke. People seem very annoyed too. The women who served us kept on saying xie xie ( I guess she meant thank you) without asking where we are from. She thinks all the asian are Chinese? We will definitely not come back

Vine Bar is a treasure! The service that I experienced was outstanding, yet still felt warm and personal. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. I’ll be back when I’m in the area again.

Impressive dining experience. As a food lover and having enjoyed cuisine all over Italy I can say the food and attention to detail is Michelin star level, better than most Italian restaurants in Italy. It is rare to taste love and passion in a dish with a fine dinning level service. This place is a must visit if you love Italian cuisine and wish to be pleasantly surprised with the experience. You will want to reserve in advance.

So, its a super personal service. The food is incredible. I’ve honestly never eaten a Barata so delicious. It’s well priced for the quality of the food.

This restaurant exceeded our expectations. The service was superb, our server was very attentive and very knowledgeable about the food and wine and pairing the two, as well. We had amazing wine and a delicious meal, and simply a great experience in a small, cozy...

I don't usually write reviews for restaurants, but this one is deplorable. When we first went into the restaurant, we were told that we cannot leave the clothes on the chair next to us, we can either wear it or hang it. Ive never seen a waiter that is so obsessed with this rule. The pesto pasta was extremely oily, you can even see the excess oil surround the pasta. On top of the parmesan sauce which is used for making pesto sauce, the chef put a huge mozzarella on it, which made it even more creamy and oily. The fish we order was tasteless. Please do not go there, definitely not a place for authentic Italian food!!!

We were only in London for a few days and needed a place to eat on our first night. I Googled "Best Restaurants Near Me" and Vine Bar London came up. I checked the menu (Italian) and some reviews which all looked good, so I...

I had a very fine evening in the company of Elena and Roberto at this lovely restaurant. The food served (the Simple White and the Al Tartufo) was subtle and yet delicious and the wine paired wonderfully with the food and the atmosphere. I would recommend Vine Bar to anyone who wants to have an evening worthy of remembrance.
