Vino & Vibes absolutely lives up to the name. Can I give this place 10 stars??…read more First off, the food was amazing. Everything tasted super fresh and the menu leans more "snacky" in the best possible way -- perfect little plates that are clearly meant to pair with wine. We ordered a few things for the table and it felt like the kind of place where you just keep ordering one more thing because everything sounds good. Nothing heavy, just really well done bites that let the wine shine. Speaking of wine, the selection is awesome. It's not the usual predictable restaurant list. There are some really interesting bottles and styles on there, which makes it fun if you actually enjoy trying different wines instead of just defaulting to the same thing every time. Service was great too. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the owners are really hands-on and working hard to make the place special. That always makes a difference. And the ambiance... chef's kiss. Moody lighting, cozy, stylish but not pretentious. Just good vibes all around. It's the kind of spot you want to linger at with friends and a second bottle of wine. Already planning my next visit :)

The 9 oz wine pours were decently priced. Loved that they have a dessert tray to show you all their options. Our server was great, and my father in law couldn't stop talking about how we could talk to each other because although the place was full, it wasn't loud. Will definitely be back.

There is more on the menu but I keep coming back for that unbeatable deal all the time. It's also not noisy as such at all so it is the perfect place for my girlfriends and I to hang out once a week or so after work, get some flatbreads and wine and have good conversations.. All the servers we have had all these times while in this restaurant have been awesome so I basically have had no complains.

Food & Wine: I really want to love St. Julian Winery - Troy,…read moreand there are good things here. The wine itself is... fine. I'm more of a dry-wine person, and honestly I probably only enjoy about 5% of the menu, but I will say the prices are great and the menu is huge. There's truly something for everyone, just maybe not for the dry crowd. I do appreciate that they offer snacks for purchase and the wine club is actually a great deal. Service: This is where it slipped for me. I've been to other St. Julian locations and had genuinely great experiences, so I know the bar is higher. Here, the service was just ok. The staff didn't seem very engaged and gave off more "going through the motions" than "happy to have you here." It felt like regulars got the warm treatment, while everyone else was kind of an afterthought, which was a bummer. Ambiance: It's always packed, which says something, but the space itself feels cold and a little warehouse-y. I really wish this location had that cozy, homey winery vibe the others do. The energy is busy but not welcoming, and the location doesn't help much either. If I could give one suggestion to the team, it'd be to soften the space and the experience a bit, warmer lighting, more interaction, something that makes people want to linger instead of just drink and leave. I know this place can be great, it just doesn't quite get there yet.

The tasting includes five small serving size portions of five different wines of your choice that you want to taste. Sitting at the bar is a good option if you going solo. Weekends are pretty busy but the servers are very friendly and attentive. The vibes are top tier and the other guest were fun to be around. I really enjoyed this winery and it's now my favorite place to go for a quick night out.

Now, even better for me is that it's also a brewery known as Belching Monk. Being my first time here, I did a flight of all their beers, which gave me a nice sampling of all their choices. While the selection was very standard for most breweries, you have you amber, your stout, your IPA etc., one thing that stood out to me was how perfect each beer was. There wasn't a lot of nonsense, and these were all just good, easy drinking beers for the most part in the 5-6% ABV range. I noticed that they are now doing some game watches along with trivia, euchre etc and I am actually looking forward to making this a regular spot. Great job to the team!

The menu just changed the day that we visited and some of the items weren't yet available to purchase. But there is a decent sampling of small plate items to pair with your wine options. There is also a nice selection of bourbons, cocktails, beer and more if that's more of your lane. Certainly a nice place to stop when you need a break from shopping. The ambiance is above average; it is nice but not extravagant and you'll fit right in with Saturday errand running attire. My only suggestions are that they add flights and more non dairy small plate items. Overall I did enjoy my time here. The space is quaint and easy to make new friends if sitting at the bar, or at least that was my experience.

Our server was so kind and helpful with my husband's odd allergy. They made sure he knew exactly what he was eating. Our soup and salad were very delicious, but very small portions. We both had the kids grilled cheese and then shared a browned butter chocolate chip cookie. The setting is cute and a little quirky. It's not very close to home, so I don't think I'll be back. I did enjoy my lunch and I really liked how it was very clear that the food was fresh and homemade.

It had the vibe of a garden party. There was a covered area, but seemed to have an event in it. I think it would be a perfect place for a baby/ bridal shower. Service here is STELLAR! There is a main server, an "assistant" to the server for each table, plus other staff members were very quick to step in and help at any moment. Our table was cleared immediately and wiped clean between courses. We were checked on multiple times throughout- not an annoying amount but perfect. The staff we spoke with were also very personable. We did start with one of every oyster but forgot a picture. They went through each so we would remember which was which from the menu, which was appreciated. They do have a special on oysters - $2 each Tues-thurs during happy hour (I think it is 4-6pm) The smoked sturgeon was phenomenal. I have never eaten sturgeon before and it had so much flavor. Not dry at all and the pickled veggies were a good touch for this. This also included the cornbread which I wanted to try but didn't want a whole side of, so this is a good 2 for 1! The monkey bread is a must order. We saw so many people with it at their table and had FOMO. Worth it. Just order it. My husband ordered one of the steaks on special. It was described as a salsa verde, but realistically it was more of a chimichurri on top. Cooked perfectly. I ordered the fish and chips which came crispy on the outside but the fish was still flaky and soft on the inside. It comes with coleslaw, which was just ok. It also had some crispy potatoes- I do wish this came with a different potato version. The potatoes were cooked really well, but just felt very dense next to a fried fish.

The food was good, albeit pricey, but high quality and delicious. We got the Feta Fritto as an appetizer and I chose the Spicy Rigatoni as my main. While it had good flavor, I was disappointed in the spice level - I was really hoping for something spicier. The other feedback I'd give is for such a cute spot downtown Birmingham the music felt like I was at a bad wedding with a horrible DJ... definitely not what you'd expect and just felt strange to us as it didn't match the ambiance of the place itself. Either way, this was a cute spot for a nice dinner!
