Reviews for Vino Bella in Issaquah, WA
Cute place for some good wine and live music. In the back there is a bar. There were people watching the football game. Although... the wine bar opens at 2:30 pm , they do not serve any food until 4:30pm! Read more
Great little place, makes you feel like you're in a cool alley bar in England. Nice wines, and the bruschetta I thought was a... good appetizer. They also do live music, but is a little loud for the small space, but still great to see live music. Read more
Great band CT Classic Soul Has an Italian name yet there are very few Italian wines. That?s a shame. Be brave, Washington wine... is awful. Where?s the food? Don?t come for dinner. If you are a single guy looking for a woman over 50, this is your place. Read more
The live music here on weekends is a blast. Always a huge crowd here dancing and having a good time. The wine and cocktails are... excellent as well. They could do more in the way of appetizers, but their bruschetta is amazing and their pasta is as well onthe days they have it! I definitely recommend coming here on a weekend evening. Read more
Nice place but I won't be going back. I visited this place for the first time last night, a band was playing and unbeknownst to... me you either had to buy a drink or pay a 10.00 cover, now I'm not sure why they didn't have a door person handling this butthey didn't, about 30 minutes after I arrived a man who I was able to determine was the owner approached me in this overcrowdedestablishment and asked if I had been helped I told him I was ok and this when I was informed that I had to buy a drink or paythe 10.00 cover so I purchased a rum and coke. About 10 minutes after I finished my drink the owner comes back around and askedme again if I've been helped, I told him I had already purchased a drink and was ok, he then yells for the bartender trying toask if I had purchased a drink, I told him that if I said I purchased one I had and there was no reason to lie about it hecontinued trying to get the bartenders attention and at this point I told him I was leaving because I didn't need to be houndedto buy drinks. Now I understand that the bars need to make their money back when booking bands but put in a door person andlower the fee to 5.00 and make everyone pay regardless of drink purchase or not or sell drink tickets. And ultimately if youcan't afford to hire the band without hounding customers to buy drinks don't hire the band. Like I said the place was fairlynice but the disrespect soured me on the experience and I won't be going back. Read more
The ambiance is great, the wine selection was good, I just didn?t like the appetizer platter. It was a taster of a few things,... the cheese was too big and needed crackers or bread. Pairing is off, in my opinion, everything else was fine. Very limited menuthough Read more
Went to a drag show here and had the absolute best time! The drinks were strong, the food delicious, the staff was amazing and... the drag talent was absolutely phenomenal. The most fun we've ever had in Issaquah. We will be back for sure! Read more
I hate to do this. I know the owner, Claude. He's a good guy. But his servers are extremely rude. I went there last week to see... a live band. My preferred whiskey (Seagrams 7) was not on the list. My next choice (Jameson) had "just sold out!" Instead ofoffering alternatives and/or offering whatever for the cost of a Jameson, my server smugly stood there waiting for my order. Ididn't recognize ANY of their whiskey choices. Ok, so I asked the server what bottled or canned beers they have. I ordered aBOTTLE of Peroni. I got a glass of beer. I waited a long while to tell the server that I didn't order this. No dice. Finally, Iwalked out. The server chased me to the door claiming I didn't pay for my drink. I was mortified! I never even touched theglass. Not even a sip! If my employees EVER treated my Customers like this, I'd fire them on the spot!!!! Read more
