What kind of crowd is it


Folks who know they can pay 10 bucks for bottomless mimosas and 10 bucks for an entree and sit there for 5 hours and literally pass out on the table and vomit on the patio. I love Olive or Twist but it’s brunch is not an enjoyable time

They charged me 12 the other day, the fruited versions were 15 and the "craft" were 5 per. This was last Saturday for reference.

Now I know 2 bucks isn't a huge deal but I haven't seen people to the level he is saying since they removed the bottomless "craft" option.

I mean, I think the food is good. I think the drinks are good. But the crowd gets out of control. People puking, fighting, and screaming isn’t an enjoyable brunch to me

Saturday they had a waiter who couldn't get his shite together. Like we were going to the bar to get our own drinks, we never got a refill on water, and it started by waiting 25 minutes for drinks before I got up and went to the bar.

Told the hostess who just said they were shorthanded and she went back to folding silverware. Needless to say, it was literally the worst experience I've ever had at any restaurant. I thought about e-mailing Duke and letting him know how bad it was. The bartenders were out serving people, filling drinks, and apologizing because of the server.

They lost a lot of good staff in the last 12-18 months for various reasons. The bar staff is still friendly and attentive but I don’t think they’re as good as what they once had.

As long as they have the balding guy with the glasses, that dude is one of the best waiters I've ever had and attentive as frick. Plus he remembers people even if he doesn't know their name.


I told the SO that from now on we eat/drink on the bar side instead of the restaurant side. It was literally that bad of an experience. I mean I walked to the restroom and the waiter is at the register cursing tables.

I agree. He's an excellent bartender. I hate that we can't eat brunch at the bar side anymore. He's way better than the waitresses.

How old are these people fighting? Do you ever see people in their 40’s fighting there?

The Vineyard is a shithole frequented by pathetic drunks and drug addicts. Pretty depressing place.
