  6. Great place for great wine!
    We love Vines. We've been going to Vines since it opened and really love the atmosphere, service, wine and food! We are always greeted at the door by a familiar face and at least 2 servers know what we like before we order! We are impressed by the selection of wines... best in this area for sure. We miss the live music though!

  7. Favorite Restraunt in Parker
    My wife and I have been going to vines for the last 2 years and have ALWAYS had a wonderful time there. They have one of the largest selections of wines of any of the wine bars and I think some of the reviewers are off base on their criticism of the food. The owners are both there often and very friendly. Definitely one of the best atmospheres in Parker and worth checking out.

  8. Great Patio on Mainstreet to laugh with friends!
    I like the smaller sizes of entree's and it makes it fun to share and sample. I wish they changed up the menu a bit more, they have pretty much had the same dishes since they opened... but I still got a couple times a month...

  9. Very good!
    My sister and I went there just for some drinks and were very impressed. It was my birthday and they gave us a free dessert, which was absolutely delicious. The recommended great wines, and the artichoke dip was also great- actual artichokes, not like some places that you go where is is just pureed and you can tell it came from the freezer! The only drawback is the extremely loud bar across the s...

  10. I love Vines
    After reading a few of the negative reviews, I was compelled to write a review. I have been going to Vines for a few years and it is a great place for a night out with girlfriends or a date! For those of us that enjoy wine and Tapas, this is the place to go! It is not expensive, I think it is fairly priced for the wine selection and great food. If you like Brie, their baked Brie is amazing! ...

  11. Way Overpriced, sneeky staff
    We went here in 2007, I had some zin and my hubby likes to drink different kinds a beers. he asked the male bartender what type of stuff was good. he suggested this English beer in a green bottle. he did state that it was "a lil bit more, only because it was a slightly bigger bottle", than you average draft beer. The guy told us all the other prices except this one. Didnt seem suspicious at the t...

  12. Vines charges too much for what they can offer
    I visited this restaurant for dinner on New Years Eve. The cost per person was $90.00. The limited menu gave you a choice of salmon, chicken, or filet mignon with wine and choice of soup or salad. I was with friends and got to sample all three dishes. The salmon was good but none were worth the money. The steak was not cooked to order and had gristle. The chicken was dry and bland. I am still kic...

  13. Sonoma in Parker, CO
    I spent 2 years in Sonoma, CA before moving to Colorado and Vines was the taste of wine country I was missing so much. I love this place, always have. I have been there several times and the wine is always great and so it the food. The live music is awesome, just a fun place. Everything is a matter of opinion but if I go out with a girlfriend for a little food and wine I don't consider $30.00...

  14. Unique treasure in Parker
    The criticisms I've read are totally off-base!. I've been to several other wine bars/bistros throughout the state (Village Cork in Denver, Bistro Al Vino in Aurora, Samplings in Reisco, etc.) and Vines compares favorably to all of them. It is a beautiful place with terrific food and a wine list which is truly superb. Boring wine? Limited selection?? That is an absolute untruth! For instance, I ...

  15. Too Expensive for What You Get
    I actually really liked the look of the bar, so I was really sad when the food and wine didn't meet my expectations. I guess it was my fault for setting them so high. The food is not good and is really expensive for what you get. I understand the concept of "tapas" so I wasn't expecting huge portions, I guess I just expected them to taste better. The desserts looked like they were just shipped...

  16. Great Date Night!
    What a wonderful find in small town Parker. The atmosphere is fantastic for a date night or an evening out with friends. Lee and Sherri are highly knowledgeable in wine and love to share with their guests. We highly recommend the crab dip, pork empanadas, and the beef brioche. We are big fans of the Tapas style dining and there is always something new to try. Mother's Day brunch was such a ...

  17. 100+ Bad wines
    This is a beautiful wine bar, however the wine list is, well boring. The wines by the glass, with a few exceptions, are overpriced and very badly selected. It seems the focus is more on profit than quality wine. The staff is very poorly educated. It would be nice to see one wine bar offer a selection of great wines at a reasonable price.

  18. Pitiful at Best
    They may have 100 wines by the glass but only 32 are on the cruvinet under nitrogen. The rest are as stale as you might imagine. I also had the carb-stuffed shrimp... supposedly stuffed with LUMP crab meat? Used to be jump, and at least 2/3 BREAD. If you're looking for GOOD food, and fresh wines, try CRU in Denver. That was marvelous.

  19. wine bar in cowtown
    Food is good and they have a great wine selection - staff always friendly. Definitely overpriced - they've got you over a barrell though as there's not much else in Parker.

  20. Amazing Wine Selection!
    We go to Vines frequently because of the incredible wine selection and the delicous tapas. My husband always asks the server to make a wine selection for him, and every single one has been excellent. All the servers have been extremely well trained and thoroughly know every vintage available. I'm a less experienced wine drinker, so I have fun with their flights of wine and have tried everythin...

  21. Sparse Service - Dry/Cold Food
    My husband and I stopped by for a drink and bite to eat before the Denver theatre. Our server knew little about the wine he was serving and not helpful about the menu. He seemed much more interested in the group of young women at a nearby table. We looked twice at the bill because it seemed we had gotten so little for such a large bill!

  22. swankiest spot in Parker
    We love Vines! Our first visit, we didn't expect too much from this little tapas bar, but we were so pleasantly surprised. Parker is a great FAMILY-style town and so we were excited to find such a swanky, hip little place with good food, great wine and great live local musicians!
