Comment: The rehearsal dinner that Five Vines put on for my son and daughter in-law was amazing. To begin with, Suzy is a delight to work with. The space is spectacular and the best part was the food. Everyone raved about the short ribs. Suzy and her husband made sure the drinks were flowing and the food was plentiful. We did the buffet and passed appetizers. The passed shrimp were a hit. You could not go wrong working with this wonderful family. Thank you so much for the beautiful memories during my son’s wedding weekend!

Comment: Five Vines is a gem in SJC, great food, and a wonderful wine list with wine flights that are constantly rotated. Unlike it’s restaurant neighbors with loud music, Five Vines provides a nice quiet atmosphere conducive to conversation and enjoying great food and wine.

Comment: We planned our rehearsal dinner at Five Vines all the way from Phoenix as we were having a destination wedding. We took a keep of faith and chose to have our rehearsal dinner without having the opportunity to visit first. And it was one of the best decisions we made for our entire wedding weekend. Five Fives in a family owned and operated wine bar in downtown SJC and it was evident from the beginning how much love and care they have put into making their establishment welcoming, beautiful, fun, and delicious. Through the planning process we worked directly with Suzy, one of the owners. She was fast to communicate and helped us plan the exact style dinner we were looking for. We held the dinner in the private area upstairs which also has a private balcony which guests really enjoyed. Having not been there before we brought some of our own decorations, which frankly we did not need. The room was beautifully set up with plenty of decor. We will be traveling back to SJC just to eat/drink there again. Everything was delicious. But what really made the night special was that they allowed us to play some of our families favorite songs on high quality speakers and dance together. It was such a wholesome and happy memory we will truly cherish forever. The bartender was Suzy’s son and he made the yummiest cocktails, made everyone laugh, and gave us phenomenal recommendations for must try local spots. Suzy and her family are kind and welcoming people and Five Vines completely exceeded our reherseal dinner expectations!

Comment: Me and my friend come here a few times a month and every time its been great. The servers are super nice and remember us as soon as we sit down! I feel as if we are 20-30 years younger than the usual clientele but they always treat us with respect, and we always feel welcomed, (A bit of a rarity for this area.) Even if you dont love wine, this is a great place to stop by. Its definitely my favorite place in SJC.

Comment: We had the Charcuterie combo board and all of items on the board were excellent. A very good selection of wines and the prices were less expensive (significantly less in some cases) as several neighboring wineries that shall remain nameless. The service was very good and the decor and ambience indoors was the icing on the cake.

Comment: Outstanding! Held a rehearsal dinner for 30 in the banquet room. It was beautifully decorated for the holidays. It has a large balcony with heaters. The banquet room has its own bar with bar tender, kitchen and bathroom. Suzy, the owner, was attending to us from set up to closing. She is a superb planner, advisor and host. We had appetizers, wine, beer and buffet dinner. Everything was excellent: food, setting and service. They offered a fantastic beer and wine selection. We enjoyed delicious veggie empanadas, bruschetta bites, pigs in a blanket, Caesar salad, butternut squash soup, chicken piccata, salmon, pasta primavera, broccolini, and key lime bites: every one excellent. They also have a great sound system - used my Spotify playlist. I give my highest recommendation to hold your party here.

Comment: My wife and I were in town celebrating our anniversay and stumbled upon this spot in search of a place for a glass of wine prior to moving on the another spot for dinner. This is a very cozy place. You step down onto a wine room dining area and you are immediately relaxed and in the mood for wine and cheese... We ordered a couple of glasses of wine and s smaller cheese/bread plate which were over to top! Needless to say we decided to stay there for dinner and we were so happy we did. Seriously a dinner we will never forget and a must visit spot any time we are in the area. 5 stars all the way.

Comment: Excellent variety of wines and beers available - I had the Rockin’ red blends flight that was perfect. Paired it with a three-cheese board (Holey Cow soft cheese, Quebec cheddar, and the AMAZING gorgonzola-style Grazin Girl) - which came with warm bread, walnuts, almonds, dried cranberries, fig jam, and honey butter- and a delicious house salad for a wonderful meal. Add to that the delightful atmosphere and friendly, welcoming staff, and it was truly a wonderful experience.

Comment: Awesome wine bar with great customer service! The wine selection is vast and they have a great variety and good prices! I tried a flight of the sparkling and my fiancé had a glass of white that was recommended (and delicious).We paired our wine with a lovely charcuterie board which was delicious! They also have other small bites and fuller entrees if you have an appetite. The ambiance was cozy and friendly….everyone is so friendly!They have several indoor and outdoor spaces to sit and a second floor dedicated to events. If you’re in the area or an out of Townes, I’d highly recommend!

Comment: This place was lovely! My boyfriend and I decided to come here last minute and Im glad we did! I called beforehand asking for a table outside within 30 minutes. When we arrived we were sat right away. I started with the Cab wine flight and it was the perfect amount to get a taste of each. My boyfriend got two beers and was happy with both. We also ordered the nachos and two flatbreads, both of which were filling and delicious. We ended up getting the Pazooki at end, it was a perfect portion and tasted amazing! Prices are super reasonable and it was an amazing atmosphere. We will definitely be back!!!

Comment: Words cannot put do enough justice for Five Vines Wine Bar - you just have to visit for yourself. We came here on a recommendation and I am so thankful we did. The food was absolutely gorgeous and the wine/beer top notch. We chatted with Suzy and Cole and our server (apologies I didnt catch her name) and whilst we came as strangers, we left as friends. I cannot describe just how welcoming everyone was. Such reasonable pricing for a 10/10 experience. If we are ever lucky enough to be back in the area, we would without a doubt visit again.

The food is delicious and they do amazing special winemakers dinners and holiday menus that are even better that their day to day menu. The place is cozy and cool and has live music on the weekends. Its the best!

Comment: We dined at Five Vines last night for the first time, and we couldn’t believe it took us this long to find such a gem! The wine, service, and food were all excellent. We ordered the artichoke dip, bruschetta, olive tapenade, sausage board, and Mac and cheese, and everything was delicious! While not a tapas restaurant, we loved that there were many shareable options, which is difficult to find in the area. This will definitely be a go-to date night spot in the future. The patio is also dog friendly, which is always a plus for us. 10/10 recommend!

The food was excellent - we tried the flatbread special, beet & pear salad and charcuterie tray. All three plates were excellent, with well balanced flavors. The wine menu offers pre-set tasting flights, build your own flights or by the glass. A large patio was comfortable and inviting. Five Vines has a great story, and they’ve opened a new restaurant, Roots. Looking forward to trying it next visit. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Friendly staff, good wine selection and excellent food.We had a brie cheese melt with pears and cranberries, accompanied with fresh, warm garlic breadsticks. Very tasty. As far as the wines, they serve a variety of wines from the state of California, in addition to other states and international. Most the wines are from boutique winerys. If you know what you like you are sure to find something to satisfy your desire.The location is perfectly centered in Old Town San Juan Capistrano.

Comment: I cant get enough of this lovely place. They have delicious food, an incredible selection of wine, and perfect service. The ambiance is romantic but not too dark. I just wish I could come here every day to read or answer emails over a nice flight. They have live music certain days of the week and a nice outdoor patio. They have fleece blankets in case you want to be cozy and snuggle up. I think this is one of my favorite places in OC, or in California. I highly recommend the mushroom flatbread, the bruschetta or the mac n cheese.

Comment: Just found this charming wine bar yesterday. They have an eclectic array of wines from around the world. Andrew, our server was very knowledgable, honest with his opinions and friendly. Decor is very nice. We didnt eat anything on this visit but the menu looked very good. This place is one block from the train station. Will come back soon

Comment: Great experience in a charming part of town. If you want simple food and wine this is the place to find it. Try the meat and cheese boards. Lots of preselected wine flights (tasters) to choose from. Margarita pizza is yummy. Inside and outside seating. It can get packed on the weekends. Get in early, then enjoy a movie across the street.

Comment: Nice looking bar, but apparently understaffed. Waited about 20+ minutes for a glass of wine and had to go to the bar to follow-up. Also, a bit pricey. Afterwards, we found other places nearby that were more reasonable and offered later happy hours (we were there on a late Sunday afternoon). Friendly staff, but again, not enough of them.

Comment: Great selection of wines here. It has a very cozy bar vibe as opposed to a trendier wine bar vibe. If you prefer a more upscale trendy vibe go to Rancho Capistrano across the way. I dont think you can go wrong either way.

Interior is not wheelchair accessible as there are several steps down from street level. Try the “flying blind” tasting. A bit pricey, but if you guess which wines you’re drinking it’s free!!

Comment: What a great place to try new wines and eat good food! We go there sometimes to get 2 flights of wines to taste. Sometimes we get food and wine for a meal. There are outside tables. The inside is 1/2 flight down some stairs. Parking is not easy, as usual in SJC. Park somewhere and take a stroll. The employees know what their doing.

Comment: Went here for my birthday and I love it! The ambiance is relaxing, the service is friendly, helpful, and courteous, and the wine selection is great! I tried a cheese plate and a sausage plate and loved both. They have wine pairing suggestions on the menu for all, but I pretty much ignored that and just ordered what I wanted, but it was nice to have. The cheese board comes with fruits, nuts, jams, and bread/crackers and the sausage plate comes with a selection of mustards. All were great!

Comment: Best place for a family owned good time. Music is always great and the new menu is fantastic. If you want pretentious yuppie cookie cutter wine bar accompanied by sad covers of your favorite Guantanamo-bay torture tracks from jimmy buffet, go next door to that other place. If you want to be welcomed and treated like family without the awkward parts, go to five vines. Tell em Reyes sent ya. :)

Comment: Those Gawd-DAMN CHEESE BALLS!! Melts in your mouth. Warm, inviting and low key family manning the bar. Excellent decor. Loved the wine rack on the wall. Awesome pay it forward chalkboard frames (Ask about it. Such a sweet idea.) Huge selection of wines for tastings, glass or by the bottle. Beer and Champagne, if youd rather. I was able to get wifi easily, just had to authenticate with a web browser. The pricing was fair compared to other wine bars Ive been to.All and all, an easy spot to stop in before dinner or for the heck of it.

Comment: Summary: Not the cheapest wine bar, but a pretty good value. Great selection. Friendly and attentive staff, as long as you dont ask for water. Great cheese ball. Wifi didnt work and cell reception sucks, so hard to get discounts for checking in to FB, Instagram, etc. Parking in big lot next to train station.My wife and I went here with my Mom after doing a BOGO tasting at Hamilton Oaks and being disappointed. We saw that Five Vines was just down the road and made our way over. We found some parking in the large lot for the train station (which full, but we got lucky with a car leaving just as we arrived). We walked to the shop and down the stairs that lead to the tables. Its a small tasting area with a bar, a couple of longish tables, and a lounging couch section. The couches were the only thing available so thats where we sat. As we walked in, I noticed that there were $1 off discounts for checking in through various social media platforms and a wifi password just above it. Since cell reception was limited while being subterranean I was hopeful about staying connected through their wifi, but neither myself, my wife, or my Mom had any luck connecting. Oh well.After being seated, we were handed the tasting menus and told what the daily specials were. We perused through the pages inside and read the descriptions. You can either purchase a 2oz pour, a glass, or a bottle and all of the prices were right next to each wine. There were a number of flights available, but they were the same price as each of the glasses prices totaled up. After reading through, we made some selections and were soon sipping down our first round.The pours were decent sized. At a range of $4-$7 for 2oz, they should be. Glass prices are not super cheap either, but a decent value. We tried a variety of tastes, my Mom got a class, and my wife and I shared a flight. We also tried the homemade cheese ball and really enjoyed it. Highly recommended.As our tasting wound down we asked for waters from one of the servers, but they went behind the bar and forgot us. Then my Mom asked the other server, and he brought out one glass for the three of us. She asked for a refill and finally they got the hint that we all wanted to hydrate after trying a bunch of their wine. Really, it shouldnt have been that hard to deliver after the first request.Despite the difficulty attaining non-alcoholic fluids, we had a good time, spent a good chunk of money, but tried a good variety of wines. Wed likely come back and stick to the specials more since they are the better deals.
