the vine mediterranean café and market

where am i?. the setting, service and food whisk you away to a foreign place where the dollar is strong, the coffee is smooth and the food is so delicious.

go for lunch or dinner and ask for elisabeth (of the the best servers in st. louis). she will take care of you.

great food! excellent service. head a great time family setting best food and service on grand

good stuff! almost as good as my mom's! try the shush tawook!

love it!!!!!. what can i say except that this humble little place is just perfect. i had stopped buying falafel for years because the tastes that i was getting from different places was wither way to lemony or just not consistent! the vine never fails to please. the owner is very accommodating to the pregnancy cravings that my husband and i have (lol). being pregnant, there are many places that i can't go into since the smells make me sick, but not this place. my new favorite spot!

one of our go-to places. fries the best in our side of town. you’ll be surprised at the chicken tenders. hummus, baba ganoush, fatoush. summer time for makdoos. try the falafel-hummus-tabouli sandwich.

good food, but service was frustrating. i left there feeling like they were trying to screw me. won't be going back. food isn't worth the frustration.

we waited patiently, after finishing our meals, for the server to bring us a check. finally, after quite some time, i went up to the front to ask for the checks. here, i was informed that they could only do four checks per table. we came in with a group of ten, we had all just met, and did not know each other well enough to split a check (nor were we prepared, with cash, to do so). would have been nice if they mentioned that when seating us. apparently it says so in the menu in "fine print" (b/c everyone reads the whole menu!). i went back and looked at the menu and found this section, and it actually says they can do six checks per table. the server told me that he could "make an exception" and do six checks. ha, that isn't an exception, it is your basic policy. i ate their food and then wanted to pay for it...how complicated is that???

one of our go to places. dependable and consistent. delicious food. a real bargain; high quality at a fair price.

coming from a lebanese family, the food at the vine was about as close as you could get to my mother's or grandmother's. i have tried everything on the menu and still can't make up my mind when i get ready to order. so i ask to see the owner (who by the way is the chef) and ask him what i should have and let him cook for me. unfortunately, you can only do this when it's quiet and not busy (so in other words, not very often). go there and get adventurous. sahtein and enjoy!

yummy!! had me overeat yet again!

i am not quite a salad person but the ones i tasted here had an everlasting taste..
fresh baked melt in mouth bread.. no wonder it was out of stock so soon.. everyone kept asking for more.. classy falafel.. grilled chicken steak was also good. the rice served as side dish has a rich flavor n aroma.

plenty of good options even for vegetarians 👌

we wanted to come here, because my wife and i lived in west africa and we loved the lebanese food they had there. the food was pretty good. it wasn't as good as west africa, but the hummus was amazing! the reason i rated it so low was because the restaurant smelled like cheapo cleaning supplies. it comes in that purple bottle, kablaam. the stench was overpowering. i'm afraid if we go back here, it will be for takeout.

went here on a date last night, it was great. atmosphere is a little grocery storeish, but that seemed to add to its authenticity. lee started with the hummus and pita appetizer, the bread was great as was the hummus, but they were a little too generous w the olive oil. also had the lentil soup, which went well beyond my expectations. had the baked eggplant entre, which was excellent. would recommend.

very disappointed after reading such positive reviews. first of the the so called fluffy pita was cold dry and cardboard like. hummus was okay. the mint lemonade was sub par. the rice is good but you don't go to a mediterranean restaurant for rice. but the lamb chops were good though. i would have been more lenient in my rating if the others had just given it an average rating. for a city like st. louis definitely disappointing.

i've been bringing people to the vine on a pretty regular basis since i moved to stl 4 years ago and it has never disappointed. they have a great variety of mediterranean dishes and it always tastes so fresh. the portion sizes for entrees are pretty large, i usually split it with someone. their fries are addicting, the seasoning is amazing! do yourself a favor and order a piece of baklava after dinner, you won't regret it!

without a doubt one of the best restaurants on south grand. food is amazing, must try! i have never been disappointed. they just renovated and it looks even better than before!

the food is fantastic, and the prices are quite a steal for what you get. i ordered a falafel wrap that was around $4, so i was expecting something small and therefore got a side of fries (my friend and i also split lebanese nachos for an appetizer). the wrap was not only huge, but incredibly delicious. i was delightfully full and could not finish anything i ordered.

the service is a little slow, but as long as you're in good company it's not too bad. i'll definitely be back and recommending it to all of my friends.
