We sampled a selection of dishes and really enjoyed their smaller starters. The Burrata Tapenade was amazing! Our winner for the night. Desserts were also delicious. Their other dishes though, I'd say were alright. Great quality ingredients but the seasonings were a tad off. As a winery, their wines were a must. We got a couple of samples and tried the two pour combo which was a very good way to try a bunch of their wines. We liked all of our wines and definitely would want to try more. Overall, I'd say go here for the wine. Hit up their happy hour for deals on light bites but actual main dishes can be skipped, especially at full price.

Food and Wine- 4.5/5 Service - 5/5…read moreAmbiance - 5/5 I absolutely loved the service here. We came around 3pm on a Saturday and it was pretty slow so our service was quick and more intimate. We loved the red and white wine offerings in their flights. My only slight critiques were the flight options and seating. I was wishing there were more white wine flights offered. Their seating was a little limited for bigger parties downstairs so we went upstairs. This place is also so conveniently located. We went to the waterfront area for the Saturday market and took a short 10-15 min walk here afterwards.

Seated upstairs so felt bad the waitress had to go up and down many many times. The empanadas were awful. I am being extremely honest. It seemed as if they were pre frozen and lacked flavor and filling. We were so surprised at the quality and price. I also had the shnitzel and it had no seasoning and was so bland. With a sad excuse for chimichurri. That seemed haphazardly put together, again lacking any flavor. Was it an off day based on the amount of people raving? Maybe. But also maybe they aren't aware of the better options in Portland so lack the awareness of true potential in this cuisine. I recommend Lechón if you want real chimichurri and empanadas.

Unfortunately, the Vancouver location has been a completely different experience. The first time we came with a larger group, we waited about 30 minutes just to be acknowledged. Staff kept walking around without even recognizing that we (and others behind us) were waiting. We decided to give it another try, but the second visit was just as disappointing. We ended up leaving because we didn't want to keep waiting with no communication. The third time, I finally spoke up because no one was acknowledging us again. Eventually someone came and seated us, but things didn't improve. We waited a long time at the table, and when the server finally came, many of the items we saw online were no longer available. Instead, there were completely different options. Also, while we were waiting, we spoke with a group of girls behind us who said they had experienced the same issue multiple times and had even left before because of it. So it's clearly not just us. Overall, this has been the worst experience we've had at any of their locations. It's really disappointing because we know how great this place can be. Hopefully, with more people sharing feedback, something will change. The Vancouver location seriously needs to improve its service--I don't see how this level of customer care is acceptable.

It's spacious, with lots of different types of seating options, from tables in the center of the main dining room to booths and a fun little wine barrel-esque 4-top table by the windows. There's also an indoor little fire pit with seating around that by the front window. There's plenty of parking in the parking lot, so that's never been an issue for us. The wines are wonderful, as expected. WVV has expanded its portfolio over the years and includes a nice array of labels so you can get your classic Oregon Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays, as well as more robust reds like Tempranillo and Syrah. The bubbles are always a good choice here, and the rosé is usually a crowd pleaser. The menu here is small, but mighty, and the quality of the food has always been top notch, in our experience. On Wednesdays, there's a happy hour menu. On our most recent visit, we loved the tarragon shrimp and the mushrooms. The truffle fries were fine, but tasted more like standard garlic fries and not so much truffle fries. While I love having a wine bar/restaurant like this in this area, the one thing that has been disappointing is that I have noticed the service has gone downhill since it first opened. It's not bad, but it's also not as attentive, warm and welcoming, or knowledgeable (re: the wines) as it once was. So one star was knocked off for the just-okay service, but otherwise, this is a fantastic spot for foodies and wine lovers alike if you are in the Lake O area!

FYI: the charcuterie vending machine was temporary, and they are now back to an a la carte charcuterie board menu. I had a tasting flight, and enjoyed the depth of flavors and variety in the wines -- lots of unique and beautiful fruit notes! I ordered the vegan balsamic cheese and OMG!!! Soooo creamy and delicious!! I also ordered the mushroom jerky -- well worth it! It's not as tough as beef jerky, which makes it easier to eat. And the flavor is bomb -- definitely tastes like mushrooms and jerky mixed together. The kind lady working the business on the day we visited gave me extra complimentary crackers and apricots. :) She was absolutely wonderful, and it's safe to say the service here was top notch. It was an unusually cold day in Portland (just after their unprecedented snowstorm this year!), so the seating room was crazy cold. That's my only complaint.
