D’Vine Wine Cafe

Paid way too much for a sub par appetizer (if you could call it an appetizer. It seemed like something I would have created when I was 10).
The wine list hadn’t appeared to have been updated between our winter visit (March) and June. Their website is sorely in need of updating because the «fall» menu is still up, although it was or was close to the one they were serving in June.
The good things about this place are the live music, the wide variety of comfortable seating, and the availability to actually buy a half glass of wine.

The wine connoisseur will not be disappointed with this place.
D’Vine is a smaller, intimate café on the second floor of the Ballantyne Village complex. It has a full list of wines for every palate. There were many I didn’t even know the names of!
They were perfect for a quieter venue on a Friday night. Get a table on the balcony and listen to the music on the square below. Strings of lights over your head complete the atmosphere an give you the warm fuzzies!
Prices depend, of course, on the wine. Two full glasses ran me more than $ 20, but I was not disappointed with my choice!
The service was very friendly! They had a strange ESP which gave them the ability to always know when my water needed refilling. They did not hesitate to check on you just the right amount as well!
They also have live music on Fridays!
Definitely give this place a try!

Just in case you need somewhere to hold a private wine tasting and experience a great level of customer service check out Grapevine is Fort Mil, Dave the owner is great and my mother and grandmother had a fantastic time

This is my neighborhood favorite. Great wine, outdoor seating, great service and live music 3 nights a week.

We made reservations as we have never dined here. We went on a Saturday @ 615, and were going to a movie next door after. We decided on mussels, a brie and apple plate and salads. Well what a disappointment. The mussels were not only fishy but had an odor. When my husband told the waiter they were fishy she took them away and didn’t mention anything of it. The 9.00 Apple & Brie plate was such a disappointment. It literally came out with 5 small slices of apple, an extremely light spread of apple butter and about a «pea size» of brie. It was nothing like we ever had, which is fine. It was just so skimpy for the price. Nice idea, but if it wasnt for the name of the appetizer «apple and brie» we would have never known it was brie that was smeared across the tip of the apple. We also got 2 of the mixed green salads, and once again couldnt even taste the vinegarette it was tossed in. We do not like heavy dressings and prefer the lighter style of majority of the food we eat, but I must say they need to tweak things in their kitchen a bit. It’s not coming together as it should. We love to try new places and love tapas and small plate diners, but I think this would be a wine/​beer stop only for us.

Never, ever disappoints! Wife and I absolutely love the place. Food choices are always interesting and top notch. Great selection of wines for my wife and craft beers for me. The live entertainment is also quite good. Can’t beat the atmosphere. Must give kudos to our waiter Brad. Have had him wait on us before and he enhances the experience. In a nutshell, a great time and highly recommended.

Spur of the moment adventure to this slightly kitschy wine café that is conveniently located near the cinema. But the place did not disappoint and offers a really interesting, very carefully selected wine menu curated by some people who know wine. Not your standard Rodney Strong (nothing wrong with a good Rodney Strong– but there are so many other options!) Had a really lovely 2013 Lava Cap Grenache, that was luscious all on its own and eminently drinkable. My partner sampled a 2011 Runquist 1448 — a Petit Syrah blend from Ca that was also quite drinkable. The option of half glasses at really reasonable prices lets you sample a variety with your ‘courses’. Descriptions on the menu certainly matched our palates.
Ah, yes the food. Very attentive service that allowed you to sample the small plates at your leisure– giving you adequate time to savor your wine /​food pairings. The Goat cheese dip was a great starter with the luscious Lava Cap. Mussels were quite tasty if a wee bit –very wee — over cooked and salted. Served with a comforting rustic bread to soak up the tomatoes broth. BUT if you like meat the beef chimichurri was TOP rate. Yyyyummmm! Red velvet crème brûlée the most innovative crème brûlée I’ve seen in a long time
Overall good value with excellent quality, good service, good portions! They have love music some nights but you can sit at a table somewhat sheltered from the band.

Excellent food and service. Kale and quinoa salad and mixed green salad very tasty and good value at $ 6 each. Salmon over fennel and shrimp fra diavolo also were quite good. The wine list, as expected, is fairly extensive.

Went for Valentine’s Day. Food was delicious and Terry the owner was so nice. This place keeps getting better.

Well I think if I ever go back to this place will be strictly for their wine and music. I was extremely disappointed with the food. I ordered the filet over risotto and it was a disaster, I never send food back, this time I did I thought for $ 24 I should get s somewhat decent plate. Even when they brought it back was not good enough, the risotto that was swimming in blood initially was now swimming in oil and I think I got half the amount I had originally, I was so hungry by then that I just ate it, my husband had already finish his meal when my plate came back.
Service was ok, the atmosphere is nice. Next time I’ll stop at Jade for sushi first and maybe I’ll have a drink «D’Vine»

I ordered the Kale and Qiono salad it was good. Entrée; honey glazed salmon. I will be back

The food and wine were excellent but. We just had the absolute best chocolate cupcake in my life! It was warm, fresh, moist, and creamy. Not too sweet. I wanted to buy the pastry tube of icing. You have to try it!

Very unique and warm atmosphere with a great price point. Large selection of great wines and beer. Service and staff were phenomenal. Would highly recommend.

I’ve been here twice and liked it both times. I love that they have a live band during the evenings. The last one was really good. The food is decent as well – there aren’t a lot of options for vegetarians and almost none for vegans, but you can find something I suppose. It’s located in the Village in Ballantyne, so that alone means its a pretty nice establishment.
Wait staff was friendly, outdoor seating was nice – overall, it’s a nice place.

I stumbled onto this place while searching my trusty Unilocal app for a wine bar in ballantyne. It is a great atmosphere and they seem to have great daily featured specials. The outside is almost like sitting on your back porch only great views and te sounds of live music seeping through the doors. It wasn’t too crowded while we were there but it was a Tuesday night. The menu looked really good and had I not been full I would have loved to try the cheese and cured meats. The hospitality of the bartender Bradley was awesome and he was super knowledgable about their wine list. The owner was there and was so nice and welcoming and talked with us for a while. I think this place is really cool and I enjoyed it there tremendously!
Overall a really great little wine bar and a great place to support local business owners!

It is a very cool location that is nestled inside Ballantyne Village and up on the second floor. They have couch seating outside and inside and a pretty sweet balcony. On Friday nights, they usually have a local band/​singer that plays some cover songs.
Other than that, the food is rather good but I must point out one thing. I wouldn’t come here for a full blown sit down dinner. I would suggest treating it like a first stop for small plate appetizers and a few drinks. Their wine selections is pretty vast and they offer $ 10 wine flights (3). That is def worth it. The draft beer selection is pretty thin. They do have numerous bottles to choose from but I think the real draw here is the environment and apps. Pimento cheese app is the best! That is something that I would keep coming back for. Give that a try for sure. Enjoy!

Great wine bar and small plate dinner spot in Ballantyne. I liked the mahi mahi
I had the last time and they substituted the sides which I think shows a gracious kitchen and wait staff. Loved the wine – I had a Wilamette white that was delicious compliment to the food.

Delicious and adds character to an otherwise chain filled Ballanytne area. May be my new favorite spot.

Nice place to talk and hang but service is poor, food is overpriced, wine is mediocre and we generally felt unwelcome. Hipsters would like it probably.

I have made a few trips to the wine stores that previously inhabited this location. D’Vine has created a nice environment with a very nice wine selection. It is great to stop in after a movie. My most recent visit was enjoyable and relaxing. The back of the restaurant includes sofas that are comfy and cozy for enjoying wine and appetizers. The Red Blend Flight allowed me discover a new favorite wine! I really enjoyed this wine with the cheese tray as well as the musical entertainment. I look forward to returning to sample the Cabernet Flight. Unfortunately for me, Ballantyne is not around the corner, so I will have to make a special trip South to again enjoy the comforts of D’Vine Wine Café.
