"Great list of wine, food was just the right amount, could expand the menu a small bit. Friday night we were there as the tornado touched down nearby, didn't seem to phase them they just kept bringing food."

"Chef DiMercurio always surprises and delights, for example the pieces of pickled peach adorning the arugala salad and the amazingly cold-smoked cherry tomatoes with the perfect sea scallops atop a mysteriously delicious sauce. Knowledgeable service, too. Wish Vino Nadoz were open on Monday evenings, but that's asking too much."

"Had an 8:00 weekend dinner, first time there. First hint of trouble was no waiter for quite a while (repeated apologies from the hostess). Appetizers were plunked down before we were given any plates, leading us to stare at our cooling food for several minutes. Main dishes arrived but two of us had no forks. We eventually swiped some from an empty table. Coffee plunked down with no regard to who had caf and who had decaf (clearly, none of it was decaf) but no cream, sugar, or spoons. Coffee was cold by the time we rounded up some cream (had to get up to find the waiter for that one). No water refills until 5 min before we were ready to leave. Port arrived well after dessert. Food was terrific, but they gave us no reason to go back. Pity."

"DO you ever wonder how some people get in their position? Well...Mike the Manager is a recent example of just that question. Rude-rigid-ready to rumble....are the words that would describe his behavior and demeanor when I called him to our table to question a discrepancy on our bill. Up until that moment--overall experience was good. He kissed the words "great experience" out the door based on how he handled himself in our conversation. He TOTALLY missed any training or classes on CUSTOMER SERVICE. He did not listen and was simply ready to do battle. WOW. We won't be back."

"We dined on a February week night which likely accounted for the small number of other diners and contributed to our quiet plesant experience. The emphasis was simply the food. Two of us chose the ravioli special and our third diner chose the short ribs. We each also selected an appetiser and shared and all were excellent. We shared a bottle of Califorian C&B cabernet in large wine glasses suited to reds, not something all restaurants provide, but this is a wine bar afterall. We will return."

"We had a wonderful experience at Vino Nadoz. It was our anniversary and we wanted a quiet cozy space and their setting was perfect. My cocktail was fabulous...with whiskey, countreau and a lemon-thyme simple syrup with a sturdy sprig of thyme. Not too sweet, refreshing and warmingly rich at the same time. The brushetta appetizer was spectacular - my favorite food of the night with a variety of mushrooms, carmelized onions and goat cheese. The bartender was very knowledgable and helped me choose a great wine (after some sampling - which was very nice of him) that paired wonderfully with my main dish of scallops. Delicious! I would go back to Vino Nadoz and would highly recommend it. Love the local farm-to-table the"

"Food was excellent and atmosphere was great. It is a small venue but has great character. Our server also doubled as the bar tender so we lost him multiple times during our meal. We had to flag down the manager at one point to get our drinks and then flag down the hostess at another point to get a dessert menu."

"The food was perhaps a little pricey, but was worth every penny! Our waitress was fabulous: very friendly and knowledgeable about wines. I could see this as more of a "special occasion" place to go. It was a little smaller than I expected, so would think reservations would be in order for a weekend visit."

"Valentine’s Day dinner was fantastic.
Great food, terrific wine and the staff was great.
They made the evening fun, let us try many of the wines, sampled some food.
The owners came by and made sure our meal was perfect.
Not sure what I liked better:
The IBC root beer reduction short ribs or the seared scallops
As for the wines, I don't remember, we tasted too many.
