“ I recently had the pleasure of celebrating a friend's birthday at El Viñedo Local in Atlanta last Sunday night, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. I can't say enough about the food! We shared so many delicious plates, and every single one was a hit. The empanadas were absolutely perfect…. crispy on the outside with incredibly flavorful fillings. We also had the arepas, which were a great, hearty treat. The skewers were another standout, cooked just right and bursting with flavor. And for the sides, the fried plantains and yuca fries were simply phenomenal …. so addictive! To top it all off, the wine selection was outstanding. It was the perfect complement to our meal and made the birthday celebration even more special. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a get-together. I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu! ”
“ Breakfast was amazing. I came with my 34 year old daughter who is a big time foodie. We were in town for a wedding and stayed at Georgia Tech conference center , a very short walk away. We split a breakfast plate with scrambled eggs, black beans, shredded beef, plantains, etc...also a spinach empanada and some kind of tart. I normally include photos in my reviews but we ate most everything so fast that the food was gone before I thought to snap a shot...except the tart which we ordered after the fact. We also enjoyed some excellent coffee, Cortado and a vanilla latte. Well priced too. The food had so many different wonderful flavors and it was a pleasure to savor each bite. I wish this restaurant was near me in NY! ”
“ We had an amazing experience here. The food was super fresh and Miles was an absolute joy of a server. I would recommend anyone try eating here for great vibes and great food. They even had a live artist. ”
“ After seeing so many positive reviews, our family decided to try this restaurant for dinner last night. We got there before 9pm and were told they closed at 9. However, their google account shows they close at 10. Of course we weren’t going to stay and keep anybody later than necessary so we left. It did waste our time which was a bit frustrating. We decided to give it one more shot before heading back home from vacation and picked up some food for the car ride. The food and coffee were delicious! The guava pastelito was amazing. Flaky, crunchy, soft, sweet and everything in between. 10/10 The spinach and shrimp empanadas were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor! The gentlemen that helped with my order were friendly and attentive! We are glad we came back for sure! ”
“ Miles is a great server and also very personable. He patiently explained this very unique menu. The prices were very reasonable, and there were ample portions. Both indoor and patio seating. Tables were spread out so conversations are private. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning again. ”
