Village Vino - San Diego

Wines, wines, wines! This place is oozing with wine and we loved our time at Village Vino! Definitely make a reservation as the restaurant is pretty small tends to get packed-especially on a Friday night. Love their selection of wines which I'd say is evenly divided between whites and reds. Their menu is simple, some finger foods, flatbreads, salads and of course charcuterie! I will say though, the price of the charcuterie board we ordered was a little steep $38]. Came with 3-4 different cuts of small round meats, 4 different kinds of cheese and some veggies bread. The meats were cut a little too small, the cheese choices were really good the warm bread was excellent. Minus a star for the flatbread that they forgot to put in for us. Ended up getting it, but after a longg while. I love that you can order a half glass of some of the wines- that way you can sample everything and not commit! Service was pretty good once some one acknowledged us. While it is a small restaurant, I feel like the staff is even smaller. I only saw about 5 employees so the wait times can be long. There are tables outside as well the place is cutely decorated with wines all over the walls. They also have a wine club, inquire within! Will definitely be back to try out some reds.

I 've had this place on my list for years. I 'm glad I finally got the chance to visit. The GM seated us and helped us pick out a bottle of wine. He let us sample a couple of wines before deciding on a bottle. The food was super good. The chevre with pesto was delicious! The Dandy flatbread with mushrooms was great as well! The service was A+ it was such a nice experience overall. Def recommend.

I love this spot! So glad we have a wine bar in Kensington. I love sitting outside here on a nice day enjoying their selection of wine and small bites. Everyone here is super friendly and was so nice to us even when we brought along an anxious puppy to get her use to being out and about in public places. Thank you for your wonderful service!

Best wine bar in San Diego! We love to come here to discover new wines the staff is so knowledgeable, plus their unpretentious approach makes learning fun. We also love the food! Our wine night is not complete without the baked chèvre, crab cakes, and a flatbread or two. And I swear there is some kind of magic in the Baja Salad dressing. The big debate at the end of the meal is how many s 'mores should we order to avoid a fight?

Great selection of wine! We all had the Cabernet franc and loved it, but they ran out! Then we had a Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley that we all really liked. The prices for the bottles are not bad. I'd come back for the wine only. We had food and unfortunately it was not worth it. I wish I had taken a picture but we spent almost $40 on a meat and cheeseboard and when it came out my jaw dropped because it was tiny!! 4 types of cheeses, one of which was cheddar, pickles which unfortunately had so much juice that everything on that side of the board tasted like pickles, which I hate. Regardless the 4 of us ate everything and we were still starving so we ordered two flatbreads and crab cakes. None of the food was worth it. As I said, go here only for the wine, you won't be disappointed!
