Extremely popular, fabulous food - make a reservation! We had a fabulous family dinner. Amazing food, best staff I’ve encountered in years, very friendly with a cozy environment. The restaurant was packed with wedding parties and other large groups, but our small table received equal VIP service. Rarely seen in other restaurants but the young bus staff were extremely respectful and on their attentiveness A-game. Chicken Parmesan, pizza, and the superb seafood special were all on the must try list. Adults and chicken had a fabulous time. Thanks John to your amazing staff. Well done to the chefs.

Recently hosted a baby shower here for 8 ladies and the customer service was AMAZING!!! From speaking to the event planner to the waiters and managers tending to us with 0 pressure was just such a great experience for me and the guests! I have used this place for my wedding rehearsal dinner, husbands party and now this baby shower and I will continue to use them! The food is amazing as well!

We went in for lunch to celebrate our daughter’s birthday! The food was great. The girls had multiple mocktail options to choose from (dont see that often). The spanakopita with the dip was light for a great start! The eggplant parm was delicious. The fettuccine alfredo amd milano pizza was a hit with the kids! We will def be back!

An Unforgettable Taste of Greek-Italian Perfection at Grapevine My family and I drove an hour and twenty minutes all the way from Farmville, VA, to meet family for dinner at Grapevine, and I can say without hesitation that the journey was more than worth it. From the moment we stepped through the door, the atmosphere was genuinely warm and welcoming—a true mark of a family-run establishment. The hospitality began immediately. We had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, John, right away—a super cool guy who set a relaxed and friendly tone for the evening. Our server, Rita, was absolutely amazing! I was completely undecided on my meal, so I put my trust in her recommendations, and she did not steer me wrong. The food was fresh, cooked to perfection, and represented the "real deal" Greek-Italian cuisine promised. The dedication to guest experience was evident across the entire team. Allison, the floor manager, graciously stopped by our table to introduce herself and excitedly shared the wonderful story behind Grapevine, even offering us a complimentary dessert. And for a memorable finish? Youseff (who we call a professional boxer!) came over and packaged our leftovers with such care and precision; they looked like they were still plated! Finally, a little secret tip from me: make sure you visit the restroom and try the light switch trick—it gave us a great giggle. Thank you, Grapevine, for providing an amazing night, fantastic food, and laughs to last a lifetime. We will absolutely be bringing more friends and family back to experience this gem! Kym Creech

Quite possibly the best gyro I have ever had. Service was extremely friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very busy at dinner time on a Saturday night around 7:00 p.m., but wait time was still very reasonable (10-15 minutes). I can understand why The Grapevine is such a popular destination. 4 or 5 of the parties were celebrating birthdays. Live music added to the ambiance. Thank you so much!

Found this place on Google and drove right over. Great decision. I had boom boom shrimp. Ceasar salad. Chef micheals pasta. And a canoli. 10/10 everything was delicious. Big servings and sooo fresh. We will definitely be back. Alyssa was our waitress and was amazing from the beginning. She had great advice on dishes.she checked on us regularly and gifted us pens before we left. I would definitely recommend for great food and great treatment.

We held the rehearsal dinner before our daughter’s wedding at the Grapevine, and it was absolute perfection. The service was beyond 5 star - wish I could give it a 10 star rating. Everyone there from managers to waitstaff introduced themselves, thanked us for celebrating there and offered to help in any way to make the night perfect - and it was perfect. They helped us set up a video display on the big screen with our favorite pictures of the couple, and we enjoyed the most delicious buffet of our favorites. Each dish was delicious. Our drink glass were never allowed to go empty because the staff worked hard to keep everything running perfectly. No unexpected surprises when the bill came either which was nice given all the hidden fees that surface in wedding planning. I absolutely recommend this restaurant for the best events! Thank you so much for getting our daughter’s big day off to a great beginning.

A huge thank you to Mitch & The Grapevine Restaurant for their generous food donation to the Manchester High School JV Football Team! Your kindness and support mean so much to our players and families. The food was absolutely delicious, and everyone truly appreciated the care and effort that went into it. It’s wonderful to see a local business giving back to the community and helping make a difference for our youth. We are so grateful for your generosity and hometown spirit—thank you, Grapevine!
