What People Are Saying About Vine Dining: Restaurants with Wine Specials

The Scene
Located in a jazzed-up warehouse building, the amber-lit space features exposed-brick walls, modern art and a crystal chandelier. Couples on dates tryst over dark wooden two tops, while larger groups take to suede banquettes lined with long tables. As the night wears on, the mix from the corner DJ booth amplifies and throngs of well-heeled 30-somethings crowd the back-lit bar in the rear for designer cocktails and conversation.

The Food
Executive Chef Arren Caccamo helms the family-style menu of world-fusion riffs. Small plates include a rich cheese fondue duet (Gruyere with cognac and New York cheddar with Sierra Nevada beer) served with thin slices of pear, apple and moist bread chunks. Heartier appetites are sated with entrees like tender beef filet medallions served alongside roasted mushrooms with truffle demi glace; crisp asparagus spears showered with feta make an excellent accompaniment. Refreshing mint-chocolate gelato with candy cane brittle provides a sweet finish.

Levende charged me more than I signed the credit card slip for after I left the restaurant and will not correct the issue. Manager actually told me to f***-off over the phone when I called to work it out with him. DO NOT GO HERE!! I took my step-sister out for her b-day back in March. The bill came out to $80 for the two of us (dinner, drinks plus tax & tip). My credit card statement came back with $160. When I called the restaurant to correct it, the manager told me that they receive many calls regarding over payment (this might be a hint...) from weekend customers. He suggested that I might have had too much to drink and forgot that I left a generous tip. When I told him that I may have had too much diet coke to drink, but not enough to forget putting down a $100 tip, he kindly hung up on me. I called him back immediately to see if I could work it out one more time (being naive enough to think the line was disconnected)--he told me that it was not a mistake, he would not fix it, and that I should go f** myself and hung up on me again.
