   We love our little neighborhood restaurant. Sylvain and his team create such a fantastic experience every time. The ambience is great, the food creative and delicious and the wine awesome. It is a Madrona gem!

   Any who follow me see I come to Vendemmia almost weekly when I’m in Seattle. Why?? It’s excellent food and service. And reasonable. The pork chop this evening as last time was spectacular! So, I am Scandinavian ancestry so a butter dill sauce with salmon roe is a favourite! Kudus

   Although I was able to make a reservation via open table the restaurant called saying that they are booked . I suspect because we did not choose the chef menu . Worst service !

   Food and service was so amazing. I would definitely come back again, this earned a spot as my new favorite restaurant in seattle. We tried a bit of everything, but the dishes that stood out to me was the salmon crudo, smoked muscles, the pasta with butter nut squash, wagyu and the tiramisu.

   We went for Valentine’s Day and were disappointed with the food. If the four appetizers, only one was really good. The others were interesting in description, but rather bland in taste. The pasta course was good, but again- nothing to write home about. For the main course, the beef was very good and the scallops were perfectly cooked but somewhat bland. The red velvet cake for dessert was excellent

   We had high hopes for a special Valentine’s dinner at Vendemmia, but the experience fell flat in ways we didn’t anticipate. The first red flag? Our table. We were tucked away in what can only be described as a back industrial room disguised as part of the restaurant—except we had the unfortunate privilege of sitting next to a supply closet. Nothing quite sets the mood for a romantic evening like the hum of restaurant storage looming nearby. This kind of seating arrangement should absolutely be disclosed in advance, especially at this price point. Unfortunately, the food didn’t do much to salvage the experience. The prix-fixe menu felt uninspired and, at times, disappointing. The crudo tasted stale, the steak arrived cold, and while the scallops were one of the few highlights, they weren’t enough to turn the meal around. The dishes weren’t necessarily bad, but for a restaurant that prides itself on elevated dining, they were strikingly forgettable. The pacing of the courses was well-executed, and our waiter was polite and professional, but those were the only redeeming factors of the night. And here’s where things get even more interesting. We later found out that another couple, who dined at a completely different restaurant under the same ownership group (General Harvest Restaurants), expressed nearly the exact same underwhelming experience—right down to an almost identical menu featuring wagyu and scallops. So not only was our meal underwhelming, but it also seems like it was mass-produced across multiple locations. At the end of the day, the only one truly getting wined and dined was General Harvest Restaurants, playing the role of Capitalist Cupid, shooting arrows straight into our wallets. And based on what we’ve heard, they were more than happy to play matchmaker at multiple locations, setting up couples with the same overpriced, uninspired meal all across town.

   The remodel is great, and the menu is even greater right now. One of the best restaurants in Seattle, hands-down. Sylvain and team make you feel at home and never disappoint.

   I went their with a family member as a Christmas "gift" experience. It exceeded all my pre dining expectations. We ordered the Chef's choice with wine pairing and each course was delightful, refreshing and delicious! I ate foods I would hAve said I didn't like, prior to trying them here! The spacing between courses was relaxing & timely at the same time! The server had presence at just the right pacing, was knowledgeable and thoughtful. I will return as the experience made me want to come back for more adventures in dining! Thank you all.
