    Mary's Vine is a spectacular gem of a restaurant and wine bar. Located in a revived church, the decor is beautiful and understated, the seats are ridiculously comfortable. Comfortable. The wine selection is, in my opinion, unmatched in Pittsburgh, and the food is tremendous. We ordered two flights of wine, they were spectacular. We also ordered two boards, and paired them up with our wines. I wish that we had been hungrier, so we could have tried more. Instead, we settled for finishing with a delightful dessert, which was just the right amount of sweet without being overpowering. This is definitely on our list to revisit soon!

    This is such a hidden gem! My friends and I had brunch here today and sat outside. The seating was very comfortable! The menus are actually iPads which was a first. We ordered a pastry and waffle board to split. Both were delicious. Check this place out.

    Amazing gem! We were so surprised how wonderful this place was. The best part was it’s family owned and you can see all the hard work they poured into the place. Great wine. Great food. Great atmosphere. And it was unbelievably clean. The detail was amazing. We will recommend this place and go back so many times.

    Brunch with the girls Saturday afternoon was a pleasure at Mary's Vine! The gentleman at the valet greeted me with a smile and knew the reservation party I was attending by first name and wished me a pleasant experience. Walking into this beautiful restaurant and taking a seat in the most COMFORTABLE chair I've ever sat at it was a lot to take in. The chicken and waffles was incredible and had the opportunity to extend my satisfaction to the head chef when he stopped by our table to ensure our food was okay. The manager of the restaurant was very friendly. The drink special for brunch and cheese boards will definitely have my girlfriends back for more. Thanks for having us!

    Absolutely amazing! I forgot to take a picture of my dinner but the dessert is pictured and it was amazing. The owner was friendly and knowledgable as were all of the staff we interacted with. Can't wait until we go back!

    Absolutely stunning on all levels! We had the pleasure of attending the soft opening last night and were blown away by everything. The wine, food, and details will take your breath away. This is truly a one of a kind experience here in Pittsburgh! Congratulations, Mary's Vine!

    Dear Mary’s Vine I just wanted to let you know how much my wife and I enjoyed our visit. I brought my wife here for her birthday and it was an absolutely memorable experience. From the very start the service was remarkable and the food was excellent. I had the carrot Osso Buco and my wife had the Atlantic char. Both were prepared to perfection and were absolutely delicious. I really love the attention to detail that you put into the building. I especially love the comfortable chairs. This is a great touch that you don’t find in many restaurants. We had the apple tart for dessert and can’t wait to try the other desserts on the menu. I am definitely telling my friends and family to stop in for a memorable meal. Until next time, keep up the great work. Cheers. Bryan.

    It was a beautiful place to chill and relax. Cigars were smooth and mix master knew her stuff. I didn't eat there, just visited their hidden speakeasy/cigar bar🥃😎

    Best secret swanky establishment in the Pittsburgh area. Another old church converted into a super fancy dining, dinner, wine, cigar, and cocktail lounge. My friends recently introduced me to this place for a wine tasting, and I must say the exploration of both the upstairs fine dining and the downstairs cigar bar and game room were amazing. I have not seen a place like this before in any of the Pittsburgh area. This place is definitely a hidden gem. A must see experience for anyone interested in any of the above. I will definitely be back on the regular!

    Excellent food, massive drink selection, and exceptional service. I had no idea what to expect and was blown away by the secret whiskey and cigar bar. Extremely cool place for any whiskey fan. I also got the ribeye and wine which was delicious. Do yourself a favor and check this place out!

    Hands down the best wine bar in Pittsburgh, with one of the deepest well curated wine cellars. Anyone you take here will be impressed. They really know how to put together a charcuterie board. Hurry and try the pumpkin risotto it's something special!

    I went to Mary's Vine to experience the cigar lounge that I heard about. What a pleasure. The lounge is below the restaurant and to gain entry you pull a cane in front of a painting on the wall. The painting slowly swings open to a hallway leading you to the lounge and further down to the wine cellar. In the lounge the faux bookshelves hide a fine selection of scotches and burbons. The humidor is filled with excellent cigars for smoking pleasure. This place is real gem and I can't wait to return.

    Great place for a fancy date! The food is delicious, and selection of wine is great. The owner and personal are very polite and committed to make customers happy. The owner gave our group a tour to downstairs rooms, and the cellar, it was impressive! PS. The menu is not cheap, please prepare. But it is worth it! food is sooo delicious, I never ever had so delicious risotto 😋

    Such a beautiful place with wonderful ambiance and music. Delicious vegan and vegetarian options, and people around me looked so happy. 🍷🌺 For people that are wine connoisseurs, this is a great place. They will teach you if you’re interested about the different types and flavors 🌺 Their staff is kind and so accommodating.

    Had a splendid date night here. The space is beautiful, and the food was delicious. Everyone was super friendly; they even had a signed birthday card at our table for our celebration night. Be sure to check out some of the pictures on the wall of the before and after. They did an amazing job restoring this building. After dinner, we explored a bit and checked out the cigar lounge and game room for a game of chess. Not a cigar smoker, but it is a really nice set-up down there.

    My wife and I and her family had Sunday brunch here and we all had a fantastic time. The food was delicious, fresh and beautiful to look at. I had the Wagu NY strip & eggs and everyone had a different meal which they all loved too. Meeting the family behind their shared vision and dream was a bonus. The wine selection is 5 star for sure too. After brunch we enjoyed checking out the downstairs cigar and liquor lounge - I’ve never seen anything as impressive and will surely be back. I highly recommend this special place with a great vibe.

    Quick takeaways: over $300 for 2 people, food lacked taste, but a very cool experience. We found Mary’s Vine on a whim based off of Google recommendations and availability on OpenTable. I had booked a reservation for 08/18/2023 on OpenTable for their bar seating. Upon our arrival, we were promptly greeted by the valet who told us how to get into the restaurant. The hostess was very nice and walked us to our seat at the bar. We were there for about 2 hours and we had the bar seating to ourselves. The restaurant had patrons but there were empty seats. SERVICE - 5/5: Our server, Cheryl, was super attentive, polite, and held a great conversation. She wasn’t overly nosey, and was super helpful with the iPad menu. She went over the history of the building when we had inquired and did a really great job of pacing our meal. She was very knowledge about the Church, menu, and especially the wines. Fantastic service. FOOD - overall 2/5 - severely lacked flavor: 1. Taste of Italy charcuterie - 3/5: the cheese and pesto were phenomenal. They gave a small loaf of bread that was sliced thin and bad balsamic which was great but I honestly wished they cut it all the way through instead of us having to rip it apart. The olives were delicious. As for the meats of the plate, I’m not sure why they didn’t just do prosciutto or salami.. it was like mortadella or something that I feel like people would typically be put off by.. weird choice. This appetizer was great for 2 people. 2. Chilean Sea Bass - 2/5: I can say that this was probably one of the best cooked pieces of fish I’ve ever had. It had the right amount of sear and flaked off with a fork HOWEVER, the whole dish lacked flavor. The Sea Bass had 0 flavor, not even salt. The risotto just tasted bland and the veggies needed to be cooked about 3 minutes longer so they were tender. I had to cut the carrots with a butter knife they were that hard. I wanted to love this dish but it was bland. It also came out at luke-warm temperature which was disappointing. 3. NY Strip Steak - 2/5: again, severely lacking any sort of flavor. It was cooked to perfection (medium) but there was nothing in the sauce that made it stand out. They also may want to reconsider the plating - it came in a bowl which made it extremely difficult to cut according to my husband. 4. Chocolate Dessert - 2/5: no sweetness whatsoever. Very bland. MIXED DRINKS - overall 5/5: 1. Old Fashioned 2. Bourbon espresso martini - both were very flavorful and made perfectly. The espresso martini was chilled to a beautiful temperature. WINE - overall 5/5 for experience: 1. Grilling Season Wine Flight 2. Taste of France Wine Flight - both were great flights BUT the price points of the wine flights were enough to give you a heart attack. The minimum for a flight was $55 and ranged to over $150… im sorry but for the location of this restaurant and the pour, that’s absurd (another big named restaurant does a wine flight for $65 for caymus wines). The price per bottle or glass was also extremely painful. I get they’re trying to turn a profit but they won’t get people in the door with those prices. Would we return? MAYBE. The food is seriously lacking in flavor and depth, the location is not in the best neighborhood, but the overall experience and customer service were wonderful. They put a lot of thought into this restaurant but the execution and prices need some refinement before we’d return.

    Wonderful place! Food was great, wine flights were good and fun, level of service was awesome and so friendly, even if you don't smoke cigars you need to checkout the cigar bar downstairs...and the secrete way to open the door...it's like a speak-easy. The family that turned that church into a great experience has put so much into it, and it shows.

    Great vibes, this will become a destination in it own right sooner than later. Fantastic views of the bridge and river, amazing severs and very good selection of wine. We unfortunately missed the menu hours for food but I'll be back and what they offered looked great. Cigar lounge and game room are truly impressive, if you have a group with some extra money - this is hands down the place to visit in the area.

    I wish there were more stars that I could give this place. Truly a hidden gem that you must experience. Absolutely the best restaurant that I have ever eaten. The atmosphere and setting were beautiful. An old church converted. All the menus were tablets. From the appetizers to the main meal and dessert were perfection. My filet melted in my mouth. The night we went they had live jazz music that just made the experience even better. The staff was top notch! You have to check this place out!!!

    This place is incredible. Everything from the decor, to the staff, to the food is incredible. Don't get me started about the wine list. It is expertly curated and has a little something for everyone. The flights are all really cool and unique. We spent a decent amount of time talking to the owner. His passion for wine and food service is impossible to miss. The cigar bar in the basement is super neat too!

    What an experience last night! From start to finish, this place was just wonderful. When I made the reservation online, I was asked what the occasion was, so I simply said it was a date night. This is important later. When we arrived, we were greeted by the free valet at the door. Wonderful feature so that you don't have to struggle to find parking. Making our way up the steps to the entrance there were these little added wine themed touches in the bricks that you could see like a corkscrew or wine glass. Sooo adorable. The hostess was so polite and kind as she took our coats and showed us to our table, which was sprinkled with rose petals! What a cute add for that "date night" reservation. Our waiter and the rest of the staff were amazingly kind and the food and drinks were timed perfectly. Now we get to the food: the crabcakes and marsala veal chop. These are some of the best crabcakes I have ever had in a long time. All lump and very hearty. Served with a side of asparagus, garnished with some arugula and micro greens with remoulade sauce. My boyfriend's face when he tasted the marsala veal chop was priceless. Just utter happiness. He said that it was perfectly cooked and if he could have, he would have chewed on the bone afterwards. The roasted grapes that accompanied it were superb. Now, we get into the desserts: vanilla, orange and rum torte and the strawberry and vanilla tart. Both so fresh and flavourful. We did have a glass of wine a piece and a cocktail with dessert. Be prepared to spend the money, but it is absolutely worth it for a fancy night out or special occasion. Can't wait to go back to check out more of the menu. As we were leaving, we did get to see the secret passageway that led to the cigar lounge area. That's on the plan to go there also in the future. Overall, a wonderful experience.

    Best restaurant anywhere! The setting is beautiful in an old church. The food is amazing. There is no other place in then area with such an extensive wine selection. The amount of wines to choose from might have been overwhelming if we didn't have an amazing waitress to guide us. Alexis was awesome! We told her the type of wines we liked and she picked the perfect bottle. Everyone checked on us and we spent a long time here just relaxing. If you want to have the best experience of your life, go to Mary's Vine!
