Urban Vines Wine Bistro

Urban Vines is of my favorite places to enjoy great food and great wine. The specials are always great. Lots of nights there is live music. The patio is fun with the fireplace and is dog friendly. The owner is also the chef and he cares deeply about quality - it shows. This is one of the best little locally owned spots in east Dallas.

So I had driven by many times and very much underestimated it based on its nondescript strip mall vibe and lack of website (they only have a FB link on google maps) - but I was wrong - the wines were all great and the food was really good. Much better than expected / I would go back again. Only reason 4 stars instead of 5 was service - there was an owner/manager who started our tab - he was great and attentive - and then the waitresses arrived / then it was hit or miss service. Once it got busy they are active walking around but during the slowish 4:30/5 hr they are on phones and never checking on tables. So good wine, great food, mediocre service

Had some wine and the charcuterie board. We had a great time here and would go again. Maybe some music in the background would have been nice, being able to clearly hear other conversations was a little awkward since we came at a quiet time. Service towards the end was slow and had to wave at the one person for attention twice.

Love small locally-owned places. The owner Tony, is so kind and welcoming. They have live music and discuss multiple times a week and the food is SO good. One of my favorites in Lochwood/Old Lake Highlands!! Sorry, ate most of the food 😝

the Peruvian ceviche is amaaaaazing. Best i’ve had in Dallas. Service is also great

Love this place. Food was great and the ambience was wonderful. Wine selection was also great. A great spot for date night or get together with friends.

Have been here several times over the last month and sampled entrees, appetizers, sandwich and salad, dessert and, of course, the wine selection. The steak here is always flavorful, and the strip special was perfectly cooked, but the ribeye was a slightly over cooked. Friends and I have had the salmon a few times, and it is good and tender but definitely not cooked rare. Some would call it dry, but it’s always been quite edible. Veggies are fresh and tasty. The flat breads are ok but sometimes bland and undercooked. Salad has always been a great choice, and the half a panini & salad or soup is plenty. The pecan pie with chocolate ganache is a real treat. Wine selections are quite varied and reasonable. The wine list is well rounded for any taste or price point, and the beer on tap is mostly local. The patio is awesome on a temperate day. The fountain surrounded by wine corks and the fireplace create a fabulous ambience and invite lingering in conversation over a glass of red 🍷 or bubbles 🥂.

Urban Vines Wine Bistro offers a delightful experience with its exquisite wine selection and perfectly paired bites. A must-visit for a cozy, upscale evening
