Choice Anxiety? – Interior reminds me of a Berlin wine cellar - certainly not a place for those overwhelmed with choices. Great for a classy first date!

Citysearch Editorial Review – Sitting on the western cusp of Hyde Park is beloved Vino Vino, a swanky yet cozy space filled nightly with romantic dates and small gatherings chatting over a glass or bottle of choice wine. The rich interior with century-old wood floors and a lengthy wooden bar glows with soft, warm light, highlighting the massive wall of wine categorized by weight. The small menu is extravagant, with pork, chicken liver and truffle pate and beef tartare garnished with quail egg and brown-butter champagne vinai... read more

not worth the hype – upon first entering this restaurant to attend one of their annual events, the looks alone prompted me to expect a fabulous experience. however, there was very little about my experience that was enjoyable and absolutely nothing that will lure me back. the annual event that i attended was a wine tasting, with a benefit for charity. the event was poorly planned and executed. there were several tables serving wine and a list of wines by table, but no numbers on the tables. there were crowded clusters around... read more

A Definite Wine Bar Jewel – What an incredible restaurant! This little gem is tucked away in the Hyde Park area, with an understated sign.

Great selection and friendly staff – The atmosphere is great. It's dim but open and the tables are far enough away you can have a conversation with someone and not worry about being heard. Intimate but not too much. I really enjoyed the experience and the waiter was very friendly. They have a great wine selection with a large price range. I gave it a 4 only because I didn't taste the food. I will definably go back and if I'm in that area, I'll stop in to buy a bottle instead of at the regular grocery store.

great wine selection and pairings – The service was spectacular! The food was delicious, I got the foie gras trio which was delightful. Each main course and appetizer has a wine reccommendation underneath it on the menu. I am experienced with wine pairings and all the reccommendations were wonderful and complemented the dishes well. I highly reccommend this restaurant! Best in austin!
