    We had an overall great experience at Vine and Plate tonight. The menu consists of items that you will not find in most restaurants in the area. Our server was fantastic and we were fortunate enough to meet the owner. A true gem in Crystal Lake!!

    We had a wonderful evening! The food was fantastic (it always is) and the service was wonderful. Our waitress kept apologizing for the restaurant being understaffed, but we truly didn't notice anything. Thank you for a great dinner!

    The Gnocchi cheese pasta was good. All other food (asparagus soup, parsnip purée, vegan scallops,etc) were sub-par. The main taste was sourness. Service was slow at first, but picked up. Drinks were good. Last time we went there, we tried the Patatas Bravas and the Flat Bread, both of which were good. It’s a good place if you want a few bites + drinks/cocktail.
