Vine in Va-Hi closes today
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Vine, shown here in a photo from its Web site, closes Nov. 29
Here’s a bittersweet post-Thanksgiving bargain for you.
Wine is half-price all day Saturday at Vine. The reason isn’t exactly one to cheer. I got an e-mail from the restaurant Friday night saying Saturday will be its last day.
Even after a change in management and ownership and improved menu, the Virginia-Highland wine bar and eatery is closing its doors.
They didn’t say much more in the e-mail besides announcing the closing.
“To say thank you, all wine will be half-price all day Saturday,” Vine’s short missive read. “We hope you join us!”
When my colleague Meridith Ford Goldman first reviewed the wine bar-restaurant in 2004, things were so dreadful she gave it no stars. (She’s only done that twice).
But returning earlier this year Goldman found lots to like. Here’s her two-star review.
Will you miss Vine? Will you go by for today’s half-priced close-out?
