Vino Italian Bistro: Authentic Italian Cuisine in Chesapeake, VA

We came for New Years Eve with our elderly mom and it was excellent! Tons of food and everything was very well done! Sidney, our server, could not have been nicer. We had not come to the new location before and the new place is much bigger and it a great atmosphere! This is a great place for any night of the week, for a very good meal, and it is good quality food.

What a “warm, inviting atmosphere. It was decorated exceptionally! The right music was playing and it was cozy.” Exactly, what an Italian Atmosphere should be!! I was buying gift cards for friends and family (who eat here on a regular basis). They have told me the food and pricing is exceptional !!! It is “priced right for the quality of food.” The young lady at the desk was so very helpful and happy. I witnessed her multitasking the telephone, sitting clients, and handling those who were buying gift cards like me. She was just as warm and polite as the whole atmosphere was to me!! I left out, it he happiest Christmas Spirit ever. People were coming in for Brunch! It was an excellent experience!! Thank you, for all of your help and the food smell was wonderful Blessings to All, Celia Herron

Really enjoyed the new Vino location in Great Bridge! Without a reservation (call in, didn't see it on Google yet), we were seated as estimated! Our server, Danielle, was amazing with the menu &; food prep expectations! The crispy, seasoned focaccia was a good start. Also the dinner Caesar with Calamari . The table enjoyed Uncle Angelo's Lasagna and the Penne Paesano - and the kitchen changed the tomato cream sauce to their light alfredo sauce!! Yum! The mild sausages in this dish were so good !! Oh almost forgot, the Summer Sangria was so refreshing! CHECK IT OUT!!!

The food is great. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere for lunch and dinner. Food prices are affordable.

My wife and I visited the Sunday after Valentine's, I would imagine it was busy and staff exhausted. Where to begin, to the owner Dustin Hughes please please please communicate and commend your team, being in the industry they were as we call it fully buttoned up. A huge well done Sir. Christy Hewell you and the bar tender(acting manager, your guidance shows. Now to food. Just WOW!!! Great job Chef. We had a spectacular dinning experience. We did 3 or 4 of the appetizers all cooked to perfection, and your wine selection was a joy, pairing the Italian white with the oysters, clams, and asparagus, perfection. We went from a glass to a bottle so we could have it with our salad's. Yummy. On to the entrees this will sound crazy but we were there to dine, the ability to order small plates made it an experience trying 6 different entrees. All off the veal menu again perfect, not one was off, they were all incredible. We finished with two desert's and coffee cream brulee was done with exactly the right amount of toasting warm creamy and yummy, I highly recommend and appreciate the level your staff went to that made the night truly a wonderful experience. Our server Loraiy Stevenson you made the night. Your attention to all details, not just ours but to everyone you were waiting on, what a fabulous job. Thank you for being our server. Bottom line I will be recommending your place to all my customers, owning a wine bar on the Outer Banks I will know they will be well cared for. Again thank you all far making our day off a truly special night.

Made reservations for Vino Friday night. Drove all the way from Hampton to enjoy date night with my favorite person. It was icy flurry on our way there. When we finally arrived, the atmosphere of the restaurant was very warm, inviting and we felt really good vibes. So far, so good. Our server Loralye greeted us with her very hospitable charm. She is exuded a very confident and seasoned personality though fairly young. We were impressed. Loralye asked what we would like for drinks informed us that if we had any questions that she would be more than happy to answer. We felt so comfortable and chill, that it did not feel like she was just taking our order but making us feel at home. My sweetie ordered a pizza for his appetizer and I was torn between the Wagyu Ravioli and Barrata. I asked Loralye about the Barrata and she stated that she was obsessed with the cheese and how it was made. At that point I was sols. I wanted both; whatever I don't finish I would take home.Which is always am amazing situation. Our appetizers came out and we were very pleased with the presentation and deliciousness of all we had gotten as apps. Loralye came by and checked on us and asked how everything was so far and I thanked her for her recommendation. She then too our dinner order and my guy went with the salmon, mush risotto and asparagus tips. I went for the fillers, parm risotto and root veggies with a sidesalad. Food was awesome. As usual, I could not finish everything and was excited I had food to take home; especially delicious food!!! We asked for the dessert menu and Loralye was than excited to tell us about the variety. I went for the classic Tiramisu to take home and Loralye stated it was made fresh at the restaurant l, even better. We never felt rushed nor did Loralye present the check until we asked for it. What an experience!!! Staring with the atmosphere, the cleanliness, the warm reception, AMAZING FOOD, but it all boils down with our treatment. Loralye made our date night so awesome that I even told her that before we received our check that I would write a review and wanted her to know it would include her

Party of three, first visit. Two of the party had chicken piccata and loved it. I had the veal marsala. The veal was delicious. My only pick was the marsala gravy wasn't as thick as I'm used to. The wine list is heavily Italian and has some great choices. We all loved the desserts. Staff was super friendly and our waitress/server was attentive. We will definitely return!

My overall experience at Vino Italian Bistro was wonderful! From the moment I walked in, the hosts greeted me so kindly and even complimented me, which set such a positive tone. The atmosphere was beautiful and very soothing, creating the perfect dining vibe. Our food was absolutely delicious—every dish was full of flavor. While our waitress was a little slow to come over at first, it really wasn’t a big deal because everything else was so great. I’ll definitely be going back again!
