    Meatball sandwich and fries.
    Mark M.

    Still a pretty tasty food experience. We had the soup and grilled cheese sandwich and the meatball sandwich. We also had some amazing onion rings. Service is always excellent. Good meal all around.

    What a pleasant way to spend a Friday evening--dining at a small, quaint, family-owned restaurant. I was drawn in by the glowing reviews and decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The space is quite small, with five tables/booths and a bar area with chairs, but it's well maintained and charming. The owner, José, and his staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. I ordered a glass of Cabernet, and my wife had an iced tea. She chose the pot roast with mashed potatoes and a vegetable medley, while I had the steak tips with the same sides. Both meals were delicious and clearly homemade. The side salads were crisp and fresh, featuring a nice variety of vegetables. I should also mention that they have a full bar. For dessert, we shared a tiramisu and a cannoli--both were excellent. José, who is also the chef, is clearly passionate about his craft and takes great pride in the dishes he serves. He's a true entrepreneur, and it shows in every detail. One note: there seems to be a glitch with the app's reservation feature, so I recommend calling ahead the old-fashioned way if you want to reserve a table. Pricing was very fair given the quality, portion size, and thoughtful presentation. We'll definitely be back!

    Cheese burger and onion rings

    We love this place! Great fresh food and a welcoming atmosphere. Today I had the cheeseburger and onion rings. One of the best burgers I've ever had. Highly recommend the empanadas too.

    INTRODUCING JOSE! changed into his chef uniform just for us!

    I can't say enough good things about owner/chef Jose and his staff. Came here in February for my birthday and everything was great. Jose is from Massachusetts and a long history with some famous great MA restaurants. Came back Saturday 07-04-26 with 2 friends and he was closing because it was dead. He let us come in, made us fabulous steak tips and onion rings and served us drinks - and all his wonderful staff had gone home! We had a great time listening to Jose raving about his beautiful wife and family that gave all of us hope for future relationships! This place is a gem. Just before we left, more people came in. Jose could have just told us he was closed but instead welcomed us like old friends. Will definitely be back! Now he's opened for breakfast! Can't wait!

    Wow! We couldn't have been more pleased. Excellent service, excellent food, wonderful ambience, and spotless place.

    The meatball sub and onion rings.

    This little unassuming spot is so much better than expected! It is small inside, so we found sitting at the bar to be the most comfortable spot. The service was quick, they checked on us continuously, and the owner even came out and chatted with us. We had the fish and chips and the heavy hitter meatball sub and everything was amazing. We had the chocolate mousse cake for dessert and it was delicious as well. We will definitely make this a frequent stop!

    This was my first visit to this location. I ordered the Reuben special and it was great. I had a…read moreside salad, though I should have probably gotten French fries to be consistent with how I've eaten Reubens in the past. But, my wife had fries that I could steal and I appreciate having a salad option. The little side salad had a nice bitterness complemented by the slight sourness of the dressing. The meat was flavorful and sliced perfectly while the bread was toasty enough to stay together long enough to hold in all that juiciness. Our server was attentive and friendly and I'll happily go back to try some menu staples ... unless the next special demands my attention like that Reuben did.

    This is the second time dinning at The Vig at Dana Park and tonight we sat out on the large patio…read more The patio has plenty of seats and has both misters and heating lamps making it possible to use year round We kicked things off with the pretzel served with queso and house mustard--perfect for sharing. The queso was rich without being too heavy, and the mustard added a nice contrast. For my meal, I had the Caesar salad topped with a bistro steak cooked a perfect medium rare. The romaine was crisp, the garlic-anchovy dressing bold, and the garlic croutons and parmesan tied everything together. The steak was tender, flavorful, and elevated the salad. At the table, we also ordered the cheesesteak with Angus beef, roasted peppers and onions, Havarti cheese, and garlic aioli served on a baguette, with sweet potato fries. The sandwich was hearty and satisfying, and the fries were really good The wagyu burger was another standout--topped bacon, Gruyère and smoky blue cheese, caramelized onions, tomato jam, and garlic aioli on a pub bun. The beef and bacon were fabulous and the fries cooked to perfection Jake, our server, was terrific--attentive, friendly, and helped make the whole experience even better. We finished with the butterscotch bread pudding topped with vanilla gelato and caramel sauce, which was the perfect ending--warm, comforting, and just the right amount of sweetness Overall, a great patio dining experience with flavorful dishes, excellent service, and plenty of variety.

We…read morevisit regularly because they make us feel like family - especially Natalie, who Is the bartender there. Natalie never forgets a special occasion and because of that our Saturday lunch crew celebrates each of the regulars birthdays. In a world where we don't always feel seen or welcome, it's rare to find someone like her who makes you feel important and special. And as I said they have great food! I've never had a soup there I didn't love and their breadsticks are to die for. Highly recommend you visit...and if you are in East Mesa - become a regular too.

    Update from June 2026: I visited RWB today for Father's Day and we ordered the 18" pizza. Before…read moreordering we asked the waitress if we did half cheese and half 4 topping pizza whether they would charge for half a cheese and half a 4 topping pizza price. She said she would adjust it because their system doesn't price it fairly when doing half and half. When the bill came it was an extra dollar than a 4 item pizza. I paid for the bill but wanted the waitress to know for feedback purposes and she had said she helped me out as normally doing half and half cost $10 more. I was shocked because again, half the pizza was plain cheese and we ended up paying more for this than a 4 item pizza! The pizza without tax and tip was $29.50... keep in mind a 4 topping pizza is $28.50. So be aware when ordering pizza from red white and brew that their ordering system for pizza overcharges and apparently if I hadn't mentioned anything before ordering it would have been over $1! And yes the picture with my review shows the half with cheese was larger and that's how it was in person too. The chicken Florentine was so delicious! I will definitely order this again. The side of sweet potato fries were perfect and delicious. The portion was enough for leftovers, so that's a plus. The complimentary bread is always delicious and so nice to have something to munch on while we wait for food, especially with kids. I normally would rate RWB a 5 star but due to the way they charge pizza, I have to take away a star for this visit.
