Reviews of S&V Uptown (Winery)

Sabrina Zettell

Decent food, but over priced and super unfriendly staff.

Art Tsai

Best meal I have had in KW

After dining here this weekend I must question who would give this restaurant a 5 star rating? Given the average rating and the price point, I had much better expectations for this dining experience. My partner and I were sitting and waiting for over 30 minutes waiting to place a drink order. Quite some time surpassed before a 'sommelier' came to assist us with a wine selection. Once again, waiting game to place a food order, note the restaurant was not busy and there were plenty servers mingling chatting with one another at the bar. We would highly recommend the meat board and mushroom bruschetta, but would steer away from the octopus as you will receive a meager portion for that price point that is poorly cooked. We had ordered the Rabbit Agnolotti which was tasty, but for $39 I was not expecting to find a bone in one of the agnolotti. Although I pointed this out, the restaurant only comped a measly dessert and espressos. For this price point of a restaurant I would have expected this to be comped or at least a proper apology.

Great place for a date or to meet with friends. Awesome staff and delicious food

Went to Swine and Vine for my birthday dinner with my girls last week. Was greatly disappointed in the food. We first ordered the fondue as it was their special on Wednesdays. The cheese fondue it self was okay but we got bread with it to dip which tasted very hard and stale as well as two types of meat which were extremely salty and dry. It was hard to dip the meat as it crumbled when you used the utensil to pick it up so you ended up with a lot of crumbly dry meat that you couldn't pick up or it ended up stuck in the cheese when you dipped it. We also ordered a create your own charcuterie board with everything recommended by our server. Most of everything was just too salty and not enjoyable. It was good service and we had a nice bottle of wine but will not go back as the in house cured meats are just way too salty.

It wasn't open when I was passing plan to visit soon!????

UPDATED* Dined in Winter 2020. I was looking forward to dining here as I heard great comments — was in last night for a birthday reservation of 10. The chef offered us a deal to do $20 a head for a large charcuterie board curated. We decided to do that and the GNO deal which on menu is listed as $40, no indication that the Punch Bowl Feature is of different pricing or not included in that, as there was no spacing to indicate it wasn’t included. It was a $65 punch bowl that he said would be enough for our table of 10. In additional to the GNO, and then we also bought drinks for the table. It would have been nice to been informed of the additional price, especially with us already spending on the larger end of bills, we may have gone more for individual drinks then. We felt the punch bowl was more fitting to 2-4 people, which also should have been explained. We felt the service was subpar and unexplained. There were only three other tables dining. At first, bills were not pre-split. I helped him split them, and no explanation for the insanely long wait. For a fine establishment, anything beyond 45 minutes is pushing it. Our small plates came out 1 hour and 20 minutes after ordering, and our board came out 1 hour and 40 minutes after arrival. We asked for additional bread as we are a large group as there was not enough to pair with the board to begin with, the second board we were provided with enough for 2-4 people, did not want to ask again. We were looking forward to cause of the rave reviews! But we left feeling a little jipped and disappointed. We are all in the hospitality industry so we were more understanding but also expecting that high level we keep hearing about. I hope Swine & Vine can learn from this and grow as the concept and layout is beautiful. Thank you!

C Kwan

Truly a wonderful experience here. Drinks and food were great! The octopus and pork belly dishes were standouts. Outstanding service as well! We sat in the patio behind the restaurant and really enjoyed the ambiance with all the lights strung up. Will definitely be returning!

alayna miller

AMAZING food and service. A MUST experience!

Bill Van De Ven

Cute cozy little place with an amazing selection of meats and cheeses, even vegetarian options

Dave West

Fettuccini carbonara. Very nice not too heavy.

Rina R. Wehbe

Great atmosphere and beer selection

Bryan Peters

The intimate atmosphere, nice selection of drinks and appetizers, and the fine staff make this place a fave.

Pink (Lea)

Food not cooked properly, over-priced and very small portions. Decor is somehow both new and outdated, would not return.

Jeff Melo

Great chacuterie boards and small plates

carlos smith

Pricey

Eva Munch

It was a great evening. Wonderful atmosphere, great food and service. I enjoyed a salmon dish on a bed if veggies. It was done to perfection, crispy skin and flaky and moist on the inside. My husband had the bison ???? steak ???? with hand cut fries and glaze. I tasted a piece as I'm not a big bison fan and it was delicious. Wow surprised me how good it was. Very tender and great taste. The drink menu is presented in a gift box with cards inside. Each drink has its own card. We tied a few. Again. Sooo good! Interesting mixes but a drink for every taste. And of course a good wine list. We will definitely be back !

Tara Brouwer-Sutton

Fantastic food and service! A must in KW!

Zamir Shamji

We went to Swine and Vine for our anniversary. We shared the Croque Monsieur and the featured S&V board. The food was full of flavor and generous. The service by Paige was fantastic and to our surprise, at the end of our meal we received a free dessert. We had not told anyone it was our 25th wedding anniversary but we had "checked in" on Facebook mentioning the occasion. A great experience!

Ola Rozenfeld

Swine & Vine is a midtown treasure. The food is amazing, the wine list is the best and the cocktails are unmatched.

Karl Nieva

Great selection of boards and cocktails. Friendly staff. Can't wait to return

Stephanie Kraus

Dine in

Graeme Harvey

Unbelievable time at Swine & Vine! Beat all expectations out of the water; Food, drinks, and ambiance...recommend "The OG" and "Octopus's Garden". Looking forward to our next visit. Well done.

Brandon Town

Service

Douglas Drake

Can you say Charcuterie board! Yummy.

Rikki Gibson

Best charcuterie I've had in the city, crackle belly boar is especially good

Brett Willand

The food and drinks were unique and delicious. The Bees Knees is a favourite. Staff was extremely friendly and light hearted. Perfect for a date night. Star off due to the extended wait time to get a table

Caitlyn Schlegel

Less than I had hoped for.

Winged Elf

The atmosphere and service were great and the food was delicious. However, the portion sizes were very small. The entrées were similar to, or smaller than starters in other comparable local restaurants. I don't have an enormous appetite but left feeling hungry.

Roy Firestein

Amazing food.

Charise Bauman

Such a fantastic venue with incredible staff and food! I was there for a Drag brunch and the extra little touches that the venue added were amazing! They went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcomed and appreciated. I highly recommend everyone check out this incredible new venue! For food, drinks and entertainment!

Brandon 519

Worth a drive and visit! Atmosphere is comfortable and cosy. The temperature in the restaurant was higher than what I normally like but nothing to keep you from enjoying the wonderful menu. Great flavours, good choice of dishes and plenty of choices off of the build your own board. Overall a good experience. My only suggestion, espresso was a bit cold for my liking, should be hot enough to melt the sugar. Creme brûlée was amazing, maybe next time a little light on the torch. The sugar crust was a bit too burnt. Would suggest to friends.

Jason McDaid

Excellent service and quality food. Cozy and warm atmosphere! Food tastes amazing and lots of choices. Drink selection is great too! A wonderful place for a nice afternoon lunch or amazing night out.

Deanna Rohrbach

Lovely vibes, would absolutely recommend!!

Cara Andersen

Wonderful atmosphere, wonderful food and one of few places in town you can order an old fashioned and get it made properly aka not watered down without having to ask.

Patrick Guest

Best place in town for cocktails! Great tapas, great environment, and the drinks can’t be beat.

Dustin

Excellent charcuterie. Big blackboard stacked with meats cheeses dips and preserves for you to customize a board. Good options for premade boards. Lots of local beer and a huge wine selection with a big variety in price. Odd location in a lancaster plaza, for a pretty fancy little spot.

Daniel Fuller

S&V is totally amazing! Anita was fantastic and incredibly knowledgeable! Thank you Jill Sadler for another incredible dining experience!!!

Val Brooks

Had a great time there! Cute patio and delicious eats!!

Alex Rudow

Swine & Vine is a midtown treasure. The food is amazing, the wine list is the best and the cocktails are unmatched.

Kartheek Allada

Great dinner, great service, great atmosphere! Will definitely be back!

Chris Parsons

Wow! What an amazing experience! From the moment we arrived the staff was amazing. Our server Claire was thoughtful, fun, personable and took great care of us. Aaron, the bartender is exceptionally skilled at crafting cocktails and our food was delicious. Can't wait to come back!

Neal Storey

Went to a 40th Birthday here last night. Food and drinks were amazing. Staff were super friendly and VERY efficient. We will be back!

Adriana Broggi Araujo

Great takeout experience, cocktail kits were a really fun treat and not bad value at all!

Dayna Armstrong

Had the most amazing dinner at S&V Uptown. Service and food was outstanding. We are so lucky to have this beautiful restaurant in our region. You must check it out!

Ola Rozenfeld

Had a great time celebrating Valentine's day. The food and drinks exceeded our expectations and the service was world class. Will be back for sure.

真菜食料Cook with Amy

We had a great dinner at S&V Uptown. This is our first time and everything was to the perfection and will definitely go back. We found our favorite restaurant in town.

Hannah Delattre

We have enjoyed this restaurant since the beginning. We have done take away previously and last week we did one of the weekly 3 course meals. I had missed the fine print that said it was a heat and serve, but the food we had (marinated tomatoes, chicken tom yum and coconut cake) were all amazing and we will most definitely order again.

Lynne McInnis

What an excellent experience here. The service was fantastic and the food was incredible! We will definitely be back with friends to try more of the menu. There are too many excellent looking options to try in one visit!

Missie van oordt

There aren't enough words to describe how fantastic the Swine & Vine is!! New year's set menu was to die for, the Flavours of Fall wine pairing with am exquisite line up of mouth watering dishes... Thursdays Pint & Lb... The list goes on and on. GO! GO NOW!! You will not regret it!! Bring your friends, your folks and/or a date, have fun, build a board and soak up the amazing people, owners and atmosphere. Xo

Halli Berry

Friendly staff and delicious food. Brand new place but does need some more personal touches on the decor imo. But I'm sure it'll come.

Randall Culp

Such a delicious meal! We’ll be back again and again

Ryan Brohman

Great quality, great service. Portion size could be a bit bigger.

Joel Fleming

Food was okay, ambience not so much.

Tracey Johnston-Aldworth

Beautiful fresh local ingredients. Fun original cocktails lovely atmosphere

Alan Ó Góillidhe

Amazing flavours, presentation and quality. Contactless curbside pick up and picnic. Favourites include the charcuterie board and duck breast! Sweet potato risotto, tomato salad and raspberry cocktails also amazing.

Jaime Gonzalez

Polished execution and friendly staff were highlights with Swine and Vine during two recent evenings when they catered food and bar to large company events. Their attention to detail stood out in contrast to past events run by different companies. We are very likely to hire them again!

Amela McLeod

Excellent cuisine, spot on pairings, unique selection of culinary selections...and my second time there...looking forward to any more...????

Melissa Blewitt

Went for birthday, service was friendly and helpful. We had a great time. The patio tables are picnic tables, and are at an slant towards the street, it's probably not how it usually is and is a result of COVID restrictions, so no fault of the staff. Our food was delicious, and we would definitely go back

Ash Hopkins

We went here for our anniversary dinner and were very pleased. We had the pizza fondu and a charcuterie board that we customized ourselves though the huge variety of options they give you. I had the scotched egg which was amazing the only thing I'd change is make more. Lol Our service was great! Very friendly always quick. Definitely recommend and we'll definitely be going back.

Kim B

Great place to go with friends or for a date night. The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly, I would highly recommend this place!

Laine Young

The oysters are excellent and the build a board changes all the time so go often. Try a gin and tonic and the pinot grigio is a show stopper as well. Great staff and great service songlad to have this little gem in my neighbourhood

Pink Cyanide

Many people missing a great experience - food delicious & fresh and very relaxing atmosphere.

Doug Sawatzky

We've eaten here and done take out. Great food, great atmosphere, great people. We will be back...A LOT! :)

Adam Hammoud

Absolutely fantastic!!! I'm not entirely impressed by most high end restaurants, but this establishment has blown my mind with the flavor they produce!! Always been curious about frog legs, curiosity was well founded because they were one of the best dishes I have ever eaten. The charcuterie board was exceptional as well. Service was great, dessert and drinks were excellent. 5 stars all the way????

ashley paquet

We chose Swine & Vine to host a Bridal Brunch for 12 woman and a couple little ones. The venue was absolutely perfect for our group. The owner Jill was very accommodating and really helped bring my vision for this event to life. The space truly was amazing, Jill moved some things around to accommodate a photo wall for the bride to be and their guests. The mimosas were amazing and the food was to die for. We had a “Build Your Own Eggs Benny Bar” with delicious toppings and fresh fruit, baked muffins and yogurt. The entire team from the chef, bartender and owner were truly amazing and easy to work with for a private event. Our guests were very impressed with the venue and we will all be returning. Highly recommend! We will be back for a date night in the near future. Thank you Jill, Nino, Nathan and team you knocked it out of the park!

Brent Murphy

Lunch sandwich was very tasty and boards looked delicious. Great cocktail and craft beer list. Very friendly staff

Hansel Beck

Incredible choice in charcuterie. Would love to see more wine choices though.

Heidi Glibota

Great atmosphere. Stay was incredibly helpful and friend friendly. The selection of meats, cheese, and accompaniments was amazing Great night, great place. See you soon.

Geri Parkes

The food was very tasty, the atmosphere was great. The biggest drawback for me was the portion size. Entree plates were of a size of a tasting menu/appetizer, not enough for a meal.

Daniel Lamont

We came here with a group of six and made a reservation for a Friday night. The service was friendly. The food was fun to share with large portions. Our favourite was the Stout cheese dip, very filling but could use some crispy veggies instead of only corn chips and bread. The atmosphere was warm with a pop up shop feeling. We would come back in the summer when the patio was open for late night nibbles and wine. Hats off to the level of detail the chef provides on the boards and variety of cheeses. Four stars for me instead of five as the food came slower than we expected. Overall an excellent experience that is great for a date or couple.

Al Ridley

A friend and I went tonight and we really enjoyed it. The jackfruit flatbread is very tasty and a great vegan option. I had be stout dip as an appetizer and it was one of the better dips I have had. It may look awful but it tastes great. Only gripe is the price which is a bit high but its quality food.

Jocelyn Van Hemmen

The crackle belly is so amazing! We really loved the Chef's pate as well. Great food, we'll definitely be back!

Meg Carman

Delicious large and small plates with exemplary service and cocktail menu!

Jason Shaw

The cocktails were incredible! I love the walnut goat chees, boar bacon and elk summer sausages. The concept is fun and the warm atmosphere made me want to stay for hours

Dayna Armstrong

This place is excellent. We had the baked somosas, the croque and the 3 way duck. All of them were quality. They have great selection of local craft beer and wines, decoration is very tasteful and unique. Love the concept and the service. The dessert was given as a complimentary as we were celebrating a special occasion. Good job Jill.

Terri Breen

Tried multiple charcuterie boards and shared dishes last night with a party of 5. Was absolutely amazing. Each component well thought out and delicious.

Anna Pinto

So, so good. It's got the charm and unpretentious decor and food that is full of refined simple pleasures. We'll be coming back again and again I'm sure and next time we're bringing friends so we can share and enjoy exploring even more of the menu. Build your own charcuterie board, grab a craft beer, try duck the ways, have some s'mores panecotta and enjoy a 2000 vintage Port. This menu has it all.

Nick Swant

Always a fantastic experience. Food and service have always been exceptional and this visit was no different.

Robert Longphee

Amazing cocktail selections and great staff.

Shannon Maxwell

Love this place. Great place to try some new wines. I love eating this was - small plates, or cheeses or great cured meats. The atmosphere is great and the staff is friendly.

Lauren Kaita

Great anniversary dinner- thank you! Food, drinks and service were fantastic.

Daniel Hussey

The only reason I'm not giving this place a full 5 stars is because the portions are sooooo small. You can pretty much only eat here if your on a diet or you have enough money to order multiple things just to fill your stomach. The staff are great and the atmosphere is awesome. But they give you so little food on your plate that despite it being good food I'd hardly say it's worth it. Your pretty much just going for the aesthetic of it.

BELKAGE

A little pricey, but pretty tasty, and a nice variety of options for charcuterie boards.

Gavyn McLeod

Thank you for the great night out for my wifes birthday. Cocktails with a twist was amazing apple butter muel was top notch. The food was A+ along with the great service. We love how this place is not loud we can talk and really take the place in. Thank you again! We will he back!!!!

Justin Mahler

The experience I had at Swine and Vine was fantastic. Great little cozy location serving the absolute best tasting charcuterie I have ever had, hands down. We tried the OG and Game Changer— incredible flavours, it was fun to play with different combinations. Wine selection was great, and the service was very attentive. Can’t wait to visit again!

Steph Noble

This restaurants takes charcuterie to another level! Wide selection of items On the menu to please anyone! Great experience! Can’t wait to go back!

Daniel Fuller

Delicious food! The staff are super friendly and the service were amazing! 100% will always be back! Keep up the good atmosphere.

My second visit to this restaurant. Great owners and 1st class staff. Had an amazing charcuterie plate on my first visit and having pork belly & polenta this time. Many shareable tapas A new very trendy spot on Lancaster St W. A must try! .

Matt Morningstar

My friends and I had the best experience at swine and vine this weekend. Chef and owner hosted us for a four course meal, with three wine and one beer pairings. Prior to our visit, the chef personally called me and asked which flavour profiles we like. Every course he came out and describe each plate in detail. Wine pairings were spot on each meal, my friends and I took pictures of all the names of the wine. We can’t wait to go back!

scott Starra

The food and drink is phenomenal. Enough to make you go back several times. BUT the real cherry on top is the service. Every time I’ve gone (about 3-4 times) the owners have spoken to us directly with such warmth, and the serving staff is attentive, personable and ensures that your experience is to your standards. One of the best restaurants for special occasions in KW.

Marzena Rachwal

Amazing, well prepared menu and presentation was amazing.

Alan Paulin

Good atmosphere and great food

Sylvia Pond

Amazing cocktails, food and friendly staff!

Akash Arya

Food is amazing , lovely people, we had a great experience ! Thank you for cooking a gluten meal meal for me ,the duck dish was yummy!!!

Anissa Welsh

Great vibe. Passionate about their product .

Maryrose Ivanco

Very good food with even better service. The back patio had great ambiance and allows dogs.

Joan Kemp

Amazing experience! We will be back ;)

Bimesh De Silva

Fantastic staff.

Courtney England

Liked the atmosphere and the food was good. Would be nicer to have the board options printed out on a paper somehow. It’s dim lit and hard to read the chalkboard - especially since there were people seated in front of it. Made choosing our board toppings more difficult than it needed to be.

Beth Bowles

Great food and atmosphere! Highly recommend for a dinner date.

Kathy Sparkles

The food was exquisite and the service over the top. Attentiveness to detail, knowledge about the menu and a spirit of, dare I say, joy in their work made the evening effortlessly flow as we chatted with each other and bantered with staff. We were lucky to have a beautiful end of summer evening on the patio which added to this truly memorable evening. 2 of us had small plates (works as an appetizer or smallish entree) and one large plate (duck entree). Portion sizes are as described and so delicious. We tried 3 desserts, cheese tray, rum doughnuts and chocolate decadence. Please check the website for the proper names. Thank you Sabrina and staff for a great dinner.

Rob Coffen

Traces Screen Printing Ltd. loved our holiday dinner for staff and guests. Excellent food! I thought the food was wonderful & cocktails were very creative and reasonably priced. Food service was good timing....one star lost because first drinks service was very slow... we had an early sitting, and were the only customers there (9 people) … but there were 3 servers at the bar.

Rachel Taylor Denison

Great place for drinks and delicious food! Wonderful bartender, attentive, friendly staff, and ever engaging owners. Would definitely recommend!

maia tchoumak

The fondue was great!

Lisa Jackson

Excellent service. Waitress was so patient with girls being girls (more concerned about the wine and chat than food). Will go back again...maybe next week!

Tony Varriano

Fantastic dinner and amazing service!

Becca Ellig

Fantastic food. Great service. If you're thinking about going I would recommend everything on the menu.

Greg Haynes

Delicious food. Great selection of local beer, wine and cocktails. Friendly service and a classy, trendy atmosphere. Perfect spot for light eats and drinks.

Fernando Valdes

Romantic and cozy little place. Great service but they ran out of the Iberian ham which is what I really wanted. Apparently, there is No substitutions for this even though I would have been happy with one. We will definitely try again.

Cole W

My daughter got dinner for Father's Day. NOT Worth what she paid for. Very disappointed in the chicken wings, not really cooked well, potatoes looked like they were thrown in the container an over abundance of cheese. Won't do that again.Ribs and brisket were ok.

Jessica Heffer

5 stars for what it is and the quality. However, I wish the food quantity is more so that it can fill the stomach. I ordered Chef’s Charcuterie small size (calabrese, beef hazelnut sausage, kangaroo summer sausage, 14 arpents, religious, tania sheep, olives, triple crunch mustard, pickled vegetables, milk buns, focaccia) since the meal is only for myself.

Sabrina Kwan

S&V has always had one of the best menu's in the city. Their new location on King St is trendy and fun. I took my wife and some friends and tried the five course tasting menu. Everything was presented professionally and tasted unbelievable. The also make incredible drinks. They are definitely on their way to being the #1 restaurant in the city. I'd highly recommend Swine and Vine to anyone.

David Seebach

Loved it...sad to hear this restaurant like so many and severely impacted by c-19. I hope they reopen after lockdown. Great place. Great staff/service. Excellent food and atmosphere.

Amaran Nithiyanantham

We went for the Grand opening and from the moment you walk in, you are greeted not only by the friendly staff, but also the faint aroma of aged cheese, meat and wine. The menu is both diverse yet easily traversed by those with a less adventurous palette ...from smoked brisket to beet root and goat cheese terrine to my fave, halloumi, it is a palate pleasing adventure from beginning to end. Jill and Mica are fantastic hosts, and everyone from the Sommelier to the waitstaff, is knowledgeable and forthcoming and so darn pleasant it was amazing...like a big family dinner. Our tastes and price were both taken into consideration before price which is refreshing and appreciated. All the recommendations definitely complemented our food choice perfectly. Highly recommend trying out Swine & Vine you will not be disappointed.

Krysti Beckett

Swine and Vine created an amazing cooking and cocktails class that I loved participating in. If they can teach me to cook a delicious meal, I can't wait to see what they do when I dine in!

Michelle Radman

We had a fantastic experience tonight. From the service to the wine and food, it was a meal to remember. Thank you!

Richard Fedge

The lunch menu is delicious and fast enough to fit in your lunch hour!

TheJebediahhamswing

This quaint place offers a stunning atmosphere and quality thoughtful touches (right down to Charmains toilet paper-its the little things!). The menu options are delightful and service is on point, they truly make you feel like an honored guest. All of the food is packed with flavour and presentation. Build your own board makes it easy to pick exactly what you want. Quick communication. If you're a foodie or even if your not and want a great, small, local, and pleasant dine in experience come here! We love it.

Kim Burnett

The drinks and the boards were incredible. This restaurant is a one of a kind. Highly recommended

Randy Chin-Cheong

Cozy and inviting. Great local beer selection. Nice to have a real vegetarian option, not just a meal with the meat taken off. Can't wait to go back for a charcuterie! Service was fast and friendly.

Sean Pastoor

Great service, amazing food and I think that was the best ceasar Ive ever had. I highly recommend the stout dip. Ughhhhh mazing.

Vanessa Buttinger

The dinner was an experience. All three courses were well above expectations. Our server anticipated all of our needs and more than delivered. The chef, Denis Hernandez, came out to the table twice to ask how things were going and fully explain how our meals were designed. (Maybe because it was slower than pre-covid days, but we appreciated it nonetheless). I would recommend Swine and Vine to everyone.

Adela Mou

This place is world class. The new uptown location gives great NY vibes and the back patio is a total vibe. Cocktails are out of this world, the food is incredible, and the service is second to non. Shout out to Shayenne for giving amazing service- this is definitely the place to be in KW.

M N

been to the original location and enjoyed service, food, atmosphere each time but unfortunately today was not the same. small selection of food, tiny portions& overpriced. ordered oysters from the menu where the prices were not listed for some reason, i thought i would be spending 46 bucks max for oysters ended up being 72$ with no warning. when i called to inquire about my bill total after i was told that i, the customer should check market place value of oysters before ordering next time. lol. i recommend you add prices to the menu? nobody walks around knowing MARKET price of oysters. snobby customer service from her. no transparency or apology either. also told my friend tea was complementary but got charged for it.

Tony Mohamed

If you are looking for a stellar night out, SVuptown is the place to choose - With a cocktail list that charms you in concept and floors you in tastes, daring dishes that exceed all expectations, and service that makes you feel excited and welcomed, it’s the perfect spot! Each dish and cocktail is crafted with care and finesse that you can taste. Congratulations to the whole team for a successful launch, and as always, thank you to Theoren and Diane for their exceptional service! Looking forward to many more visits.

Ashley

This place is excellent. We had the baked somosas, the croque and the 3 way duck. All of them were quality.

Lauren Weber

Warm and cozy atmosphere, lovely staff and owners, and amazing selection of delicious food and drink! Looking forward to returning again soon.

Tammy Hergott

We ordered from their set weekly menu this week. They were very responsive during the online ordering process. The food was packaged well, cold with cold and hot by itself. I felt the portion was very generous, and the flavours were incredible. We will absolutely be back!

Dave Brown

The best!

Stephanie Laurin

This was possible the best dinning experience I have even had. The food was was beyond fantastic, staff was amazing. Good ambiance Love this place ❤ I really can't say enough good things. You NEED to try this food

My favourite restaurant in Kw! Can't wait to come back

Brian Mckenzie

That luge!

Xiangjie Wang

Great food

Artur Anikin

Dined here a few nights ago and everything was delicious. Good service as well.

Tim Bolton

AMAZING!!! Love You Long Thyme Drink = Amazing, great craft beer selection... Cheese fondue out of this world with the side of meat... great choice. We had the Octopus's Garden for our main board and the star of the show was the Trout Pate it was so creamy, we could have ate it forever, the oysters and muscles were superb, the ceviche was fresh... and the chocolate mousse with salted caramel was to die for, it was an amazing meal and a great experience. A little birdie told me the brisket sandwich at lunch was a definite must can't wait to explore that option.

Ruben Gu-Konu

I drank booze from a bone. 5 stars.

Cindy Fawcett

Great food . And friendly worker

Andrew Woolsey

Always excellent.

Alexis Borlestean

We tried from the à la carte menu .Not a lot to choose for the main course.The side dish was undercooked.The presentation and service was great although a bit pretentious for the average quality of the food.Great selection of wines.

Joan Brunger

I had the 7 course tasting menu and for the price point, I was really hoping for more. The first course was scallops, which were really delicious and fresh. The next courses were Jerusalem artichokes, pickerel, pork belly, and boar. Unfortunately, all these courses seem to have a similar flavour profile, so it was a rather unexciting tasting. I expect tasting menus to be exciting and to have variation, so I was disappointed that ingredients were super repeated. Every one of these courses included a scallion/onion puree or confit garlic. There was also too much salt, which left the flavours too monotonous over these 4 courses. The restaurant itself and the atmosphere are lovely though. It's really too bad that the tasting menu wasn't better.

Denny Cybalski

Food was unbelievable!

Rhonda Avey

Amazing food.

Christina Singh

This place is a must-visit. Absolutely loved the charcuterie boards (we had the OG and the Game Changer), the cocktails, the staff, the vibe and everything about our night. Swine & Vine will be a go-to when looking to take people for a great night out in the city.

Daniel Morton

Food was unbelievable!

Denny Cybalski

Great food

Joe Pansolin

It truly surpassed our expectations. Dennis, the amazing Chef, suggested a tasting experience when we couldn’t decide what to order. All we can say is WOW!! Every dish was beyond exceptional and Christine, you were the extra added touch to make our Anniversary dinner that much more memorable. Mica, you said it would be great experience but it was beyond for it was exceptional! We not only will be back but will be bringing friends. You guys rocked it!

Z M

An incredible dining experience! Atmosphere, service, food, and drinks were all top-notch. I don't even know where to start on my favorites. The burnt orange bourbon was fantastic, as was the wine selection. Oysters were great. The scallops were the best I've ever had! And the venison and duck on The Game Changer board were my personal favorite. Closed it all off with the Wonton Cheescake. I highly recommend you visit this place.

Amina Gilani

The new uptown location is a showstopper. The beautiful decor still comes in second to their great dishes though. The cocktails, Rabbit Agnolotti, & genuine service team will definitely have me coming back soon!

Christina Shantz

Good food and wine. Primarily charcuterie and cheese. Great for light food and social drinks, but don't expect a large meal.

We came here as a large group later in the night for cocktails - love the new location! The cocktails were amazing and so unique! It was a really fun experience and to see such a variety of cocktails. Our server was top notch! She was incredibly knowledgeable and quick to give little tidbits of information that enhanced our experience. We had a great night and will definitely be back!

Tammy Litt

Wonderful evening! Food, service, drinks, everything was great! Only for the carnivor. They even gave us a very tasty dessert as it was our anniversary. Will be returning!

Lola Halhen

What a great place for a date nite dinner. The tuna was so good

Andrew Cormack

Great service, atmosphere & design. We visited in March 2018 and ordered the “OG” charcuterie board. The board was full of various meats and cheeses as expected. I didn’t have room for dinner as it was very filling (split amongst 2 of us). When considering different wine options, the server generously offered tasting the options before selecting.

Nolan Astley

Fantastic! Shareable dishes so everyone gets to try.

Anton Cercic

Generally ok food, price and value don't really match. You are more paying for the hipster experience

Adam Mawer

Over priced food, for small portions and food that does not pack much flavor, or made out of basic ingredients that you can make at home. I expected more from this place and was disappointed in the result.

Reeve and Company

Excellent food and service. Our charcuterie board was very well made with beautifully crafted meats and cheese. Great selection of food and drink.

Paul Hensel

Fantastic service, food and atmosphere. Could easily become a regular of ours.

Robert Cundari

Fantastic charcuterie. Was really impressed with the selection.

C H

Solid menu, fresh ingredients, the seafood is sustainable, friendly staff, nice beer, a lovely mid town gem! Highly recommend.

Geoffrey Wharton

I absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is cozy, music is great and the food and drinks are to die for!!! Can't wait to go back.

Nicholas Lariviere

Great place, good service and really good food with lots of options. Cozy environment. Try the roasted boar sooooo good.

My husband and I had a very nice anniversary dinner here. Enjoyed the charcuterie tray very much, lovely wine selection, some local craft beer, and the duck was sublime! Chef clearly knows what he's doing. They provided two irresistible desserts for us as well which we really appreciated. Ample social distancing on the outdoor patio. Washroom was impeccably clean. Outdoor tables are not fancy but insignificant to us - the food was well worth it. The only negative was my husband's dish was prepared a bit early in relation to our appetizer so temp was less than ideal when it arrived.

Jeff Eng

What a lovely little restaurant! Great service! My husband and I enjoyed a fantastic charcuterie board with unique meats called the game changer. It had roast boar, venison sausage and duck. There was also an amazing Walnut pesto and we added their delicious apple butter. Also excellent cheeses. The bread could have been better but overall everything was good. We will definitely be back sometime.

I have dined in, and ordered take out from Swine and Vine, exceptional service and delicious dishes/menu :) The menu changes and keeps some of the most popular dishes all year round. Their drink menu offers a huge variety of drinks, a drink to please everyone.

Pricey

Sandy

Wowwww just wow! I left feeling so full and my belly happy! If you have not checked out swine and vine yet you are missing out. The decor is so cozy and cute. Menu has a lot of Great items even for a vegetarian like myself. You have to have to try the pulled jackfruit, it is to die for! Also the wine list is great! I will be back soon!

sheila lightfoot

Wonderful drinks and the oysters were to die for.

Ed Grabasandwich

Menu is pricey but surprisingly filling for meat and cheese boards. Wine and craft beers? -check. The decor and finishing touches could use some upgrades, would likely improve my rating. - In response to the owners: I definitely appreciate the locally owned and operated piece. I feel that you are not quite delivering on the ambiance you are after. We sat nearer the back of the restaurant and there were a few curtains that I felt brought down the overall look & feel. The bar was nice, but other then that it felt pretty plain. White walls and a few charcuterie boards hanging on the wall didn't exactly make it feel trendy and chic - which I think is what you're going for. You could step up your game just by having nicer napkins - maybe colored or nicer quality? The ones we got felt like something from my grandmas cupboard. The food and service were definitely excellent, hopefully you find continued success and can improve the venue, or move to a better location altogether.

Chris & Sherri McKeown

Everything was great- really enjoyed our first experience here. The food was delicious and filling.

Alan Balazic

Love the food and love the service. The menu is a little confusing at first but really great quality food. I had this drink called a bees Knees and it is to die for. It is a pricey place so it is great if you are going on a date night and more so want to treat yourselves.

Toodle Loose

Good food, but the atmosphere, overall experiance and service does not reflect the high end menu and prices.

Val

We went to swine and vine for the first time today. We were so pleasantly surprised. My husband and I love a charcuterie board and to see 5 different kinds on the menu was amazing. The cool thing about their charcuterie is that you can also build your own board! The selection isn’t just salami’s and cheddar. It’s much more than that so it’s worth going and trying what they have to offer. We had the $45 “Game-Changer” board. Perfect portion size for the money and it feeds two people. We also ordered drinks. I had their white wine sangria which was delicious. My only wish is that the restaurant was located in a better location. Uptown Waterloo would be perfect. All in all. Super happy and we will go again!

Melissa Plant

We had take away for our anniversary dinner and it was fantastic! Staff is friendly, atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable Will be back for sure.

S Kittell

We visited the Swine and Vine this week for a friend's birthday with about 10 people. The service was great. The place was nicely decorated and properly lit. We found the food to be excellent and also thought the portion sizes were perfect. We left the restaurant just as full as if we went to a steakhouse. Good beer and unique cocktails also. Our server was great, and the hostess/owner Jill frequented our table to ensure we were all satisfied. I will most definitely be recommending Swine and Vine, and dining there again personally soon!

Brandi Foord

What an incredible little gem of a place. The service is amazing and the food is foodie worthy.. great time and delicious food.

Dr. Delia Simu

I had went for a nice dinner with my friend and family. The atmosphere of the restaurant was really nice, it wasn't too busy on a Sunday night. It is a very upscale and nice restaurant, the waiting staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. The food and desert is made fresh there and it is amazing, the chef is excellent. They also support local businesses through selling cocktails from around town which was very nice and endearing. They had actually gotten my order wrong, which was unfortunate, but they quickly remedied the situation by getting my correct order very fast, but it still came out really amazing, and as a courtesy they did not charge for the plate, and had really treated us well. It's a clean, comfortable place to sit and eat with a very nice mood set. Highly recommend!

George Votruba

Before dining here, I didn't really know what charcuterie was. Was I ever missing out, and am I glad that our friends suggested the place!! This was a fantastic introduction and we've since started building out our own charcuterie boards at home. Not that I could ever do justice to what you can get here... the food is absolutely fantastic and the staff were extremely helpful. There are preset boards that you can order or you can build your own if you have something specific that you want (or want to avoid). If this is your introduction like it was ours though, the preset boards are a great way to start. I would avoid the vegetarian board in the future, not because there's anything wrong with it, but for me personally, it doesn't have the same richness as what you can get with the other boards. Go with a group and sample a variety. Can't wait to go back!

Steve Erikson

We went there for our anniversary and had the most excellent time. Amazing service, even better food. We enjoyed the oysters, bison tartare, pork belly, S&V charcuterie Board and a delicious bottle of wine each one better than the last. Swine and Vine is a must visit, you will definitely not be disappointed!

Tanja Petrovic

Had takeout of an amazing meal. Tender portions of chicken and beef. Vegetables roasted to perfection. Sauces were tasty with a hint of spicy heat. Would certainly recommend and looking forward to eating in restaurant.

Bradley CM

Delicious food! The staff are super friendly and the service were amazing! 100% will always be back! Keep up the good atmosphere.

Sarah Matheson

We just had the most wonderful dinner at the Swine and Vine. The food was fantastic and our server Courtney was amazing. Such a fantastic atmosphere with delicious flavors. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Susan Beaton

We have been coming to Swine and Vine on Lancaster Street for years. All our experiences at this location were five stars. We recently tried the new S&V Uptown location for the first time. The food and drinks were fantastic but for the price you pay, the portion sizes are way too small. We came home and ate an entire meal after spending over $250. It was also disappointing to see "make your own charcuterie" disappear. This was one of the main reasons we used to come to the restaurant. The selection of meat and cheeses was phenomenal at the old location. Hopefully, some tweaks are made as time goes by so we are encouraged to return.

dalveer kooner

Charcuterie was amazing. Very tight quarters though.

Sher H

Went to the drag show brunch with a large group of friends. It was an absolute blast!! We had several cocktails and breakfast and it was fantastic. Service was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant and if you get a chance to get tickets for the drag show, you won’t be disappointed!!

Brenna Storey

Great food, great cocktails, excellent service. A bit disappointed that some menu items were sold out by the time we were seated.

Derek (The Beach Is Calling)

Was there grand-opening night, everything was delicious - the cheese fritters are a must-try

Steve Zettell

This restaurant is a gem. Took a group of 6 for a meeting/meal and there was something for everyone. The wine recommended by the owner (a Portuguese blend I believe) was outstanding. We had the pork belly, samosas, duck 3 ways and charcuterie. Deeeelish

Sean Yates

Great food, cocktails and excellent service. Would recommend!

Stevie Y

Excellent food and helpful friendly service. We will be back!

Nik Paradis

We had the 5 course tasting menu. Four of the courses were very well done and the wine pairings along with the service were exceptional. However, feeling hungry after paying $330 for two people isn't cutting it for value... I ate 5 tacos next door after. At this price point, you shouldn't leave hungry (-1 star). The chocolate ganache which was the least favourite among the group. It was the least refined of all the dishes and too heavy to finish on (-1 star). There is a void in the KW market for some high quality food and service, which S&V clearly has. One or two tweaks and it could easily be a 5 star.

Niki Endresz-Dunlop

My wife and I got takeout here 3 times in the past couple of weeks. Food is excellent! The $50 for 2 meal deal is really worth it. Ribs are amazing! Definitely be ordering again!

Eleanor Foster

Wow! One of the best dining experiences I've ever had! From the drinks to dessert everything was impeccable. The food is amazing! The service was great, the staff is extremely friendly. Definitely recommend for a night out!
