Vine & Olive

If your hungry and need to grab a sandwich avoid this place if all possible. There are many fast restaurants that are serving up frozen foods I thought this place would be different! It looks very nice inside NYC soho feel. But the food was bland and most of the items are Frozen. I ordered the sirloin steak and requested it medium then the employee indicated that it is already pre made and we just heated up. But in all fairness maybe it’s just the area there’s many tourist that come through here. So finding a good restaurant will be hard.

Okay, this review is going to be a roller coaster ride. Mostly highs, with a few lows, ultimately coming back high again. LOL. Bear with me.
I was in town for a convention at the Kalahari recently, and found Vine & Olive one afternoon. I LOVE the concept. The olive oil samples, the deli in the back, the awesome dessert counters, the wine bar… I could’ve stayed here for days. The have several tables as well, where you can dine and hang out.
So, later that day I brought a group of probably a dozen fellow convention attendees with me back for dinner. I figured we would have some wine, a Charcuterie plate with meat and cheese … a real kind of Mediterranean Diet kind of thing. BUT, as nice as the mangers and everyone was in Vine & Olive, NO one seemed to know what a Charcuterie Plate was, or consisted of. «Charcu-​what?» I was shocked. I seriously had to educate them, hand choosing the cheeses and meats I wanted.
That being said, we had an awesome time, and once I hand designed my Charcuterie Plate, a great meal. Please, Vine & Olive, learn about Charcuterie Plates and Boards. It will help you, as it is right in your wheelhouse.
IF I’m back in Sandusky ever, I’ll be sure to come here again.

Great selection of olive oils and vinegars! Jeff was very helpful and knowledgable. We appreciated him taking the time to show us ways to mix different flavors. I also got a great cappuccino!

They have a very original selection of high-​end imported foods. Their in-​house baked goods are also original, delicious and authentic. Highly reocmmend!

Really great store and deli. Friendly folks, great atmosphere, happy employees.
They have lots of exotic foods here, many are Italian or Mediterranean. There is a wide variety of nuts, pastas, cheeses, wines, olives.
Huge dessert case, cookies, cakes, baklava.
Fresh brewed espresso, machiatto, mocha, coffee.
The deli case in the back is my favorite part. Gyros, Greek hot foods, hummus, taboullie, Greek salad. Make sure you try the ginger carrots, really delicious and original.
