My wife and I had an amazing experience here. Love the small intimate atmosphere which matched perfectly with the service. Everything we had was excellent full of unique flavor and perfectly matched with accompaniments. Honestly we frequent many restaurants in the area and this was one of the best meals I have in a while. We started with the cheese bread and empanadas. Entrees were oxtail and fisherman’s soup. For dessert affogato and pot de crème. We also had a very nice Pinot at half price for happy hour. Our server was very attentive and pleasant. The owner came and spent time at our table and was so welcoming felt like I was in his home. He truly cares and we will return. Even got a hug when we left.

The food at Vinia Wine & Kitchen is beyond fabulous! The portions are modest but I left feeling so full and completely satisfied. Vegan options are all around but not all of them are as creative and delicious as what I tasted tonight: vegan escargot a la bourguignonne, vegan fromages, vegan alla nerano flatbread, vegan tarta de queso (cheesecake) and vegan affogato (gelato with expresso). My mother has the rabo de torro de temporada (braised oxtail) on top of of the gnocchi and was so impressed. The restaurant has a cute and intimate vibe and I would definitely come again when I'm in town. Thanks to Fabio and his team for a great experience!

Came here for Bite30 Orlando. Reserved outdoor seating but since it was raining they were able to accommodate us indoors. The owner has passion and you can see through all his amazing dishes. Was a wonderful experience and look forward to coming back.

Absolutely phenomenal dining experience, couldn't have been better! The service was amazing - everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable (we recieved a much appreciated, in depth review of which wines were vegan). The atmosphere is very stylish and comfortable, with pleasant lighting for an evening out. And most importantly, the food was delicious. Everything we tried, and we tried most of the plant based menu, was perfectly seasoned and cooked. I cannot wait to come back and would wholeheartedly recommend!! Such a nice spot for a vegan / omnivore group.

Went on for a nice birthday celebration with the family. We had reservations so being seated was easy.
Atmosphere wise it was cozy, definitely a feel of a wine bar. Now I do want to mention space is limited inside so be aware that it can get extremely crowded easily. Also to the owner please note that your fans above need a deep DEEP cleaning as they were covered in dust (it looks like it's been a while since they were dusted). This honestly threw me off a little bit ambiance wise.
Now service was nice; our waitress was good. We were greeted and asked a few times by the owner how we were doing. Friendly is the best word for service overall.
Now let's talk food and selections. As it is a wine bar please understand food portions are very minimal, do not expect a hardy meal. The menu is limited but is vegetarian and vegan friendly which is nice. I would like to say the dishes that stood out the most were the oxtail, empanada, flatbread, sea bass, and affogato. Everything else in my opinion was just alright. I do want the owner to also take note of your table water glasses; please make sure they are cleaned thoroughly as there were harsh water stains on the noses of the bottles which made it look unbecoming.
Overall it was a nice experience, definitely one to try at least try once.

A first time experience cannot be redone. There is no do-over needed. AMAZING experience, food and wine pairings, and the atmosphere. Me and my wife had a 7:30pm reservation on 2/9. We had a table ready near the window which was perfect to not only view the restaurant but also the area itself. Food Portions were perfect and the flavor in every dish was perfectly paired with the wine. Staff and owner were pleasant and informative. We shall return!!
