Nice little place. Extensive wine list. Servers were very attentive and friendly.
In addition to the pictures here we ordered the bacon wrapped dates and they were Superb and the deviled eggs were also very tasty.

I love this place! I've visited Vinos Finos at least half a dozen times in the past several years, and I am never disappointed. I especially love the truffle deviled eggs and avocado boats. The paella is delicious as well. They have an outstanding wine selection, but I usually choose the Malbec because it's really good.
Oh, and the $5 off yelp check-in offer is a nice bonus!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Courtney W.NJ, NJ06255Feb 10, 2024

During my day exploring, I finally visited Vinos, nestled in Lafayette Village. Very nice spot for a nice glass of wine with an overwhelming amount of wine options for wine lovers. Perfect place to drop in for wine, cheese boards, tapas, and even desserts. You will not be disappointed. I had the Cabernet Flight, which was a burst of
blackberry along with warm spice, and vanilla, and I enjoyed it.
Service: Only one person was working the bar, and that individual was also responsible for folks dining in and outside. He was fast, but I think stretching staff members short takes away from experience. Some people walked in and waited a while before anyone greeted them. There should be a host. No one should walk in and not be acknowledged. That's not the best look, but besides that, when that person was freed up, he did a great job servicing everyone. I get it times are tough, and it's important to keep businesses afloat, but rethinking this process would greatly improve the overall experience.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Apr 27, 2022
We stopped in a couple of weeks ago for a relaxing dinner. Vinos Finos is one of our semi-regular dining haunts in Lafayette Village. The atmosphere, service, and food quality is always top notch here. It's a nice place to go for a relaxing dinner and a glass or two of wine from the great selection they offer.
On this date we came in for a late Saturday dinner. The place offers a menu primarily of tapas and a few large entrees. We started with the Burrata Salad and Spring Garden Salad. Both were delicious! The ingredients were fresh and both were tasty. Next up were the tuna tortilla chips and the octopus and potato dish. Both were tasty and satisfying. We skipped desert due to it being late but, the offerings looked really good. We will save that for the next visit.
VF is always reliable dining option in Lafayette Village. Definitely check them out.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

Vinos Finos was everything you want for a tapas bar. They had an excellent selection of foods, and a large selection of South American wines.
We tried a lot of different foods including sneeze stuffed peppers, lamb sliders, tuna nachos, calamari, and meatballs. All of which were excellent

Girl dinner extraordinaire. Highly recommend to enjoy socializing without cleanup. Great selection of wine and apps. Quiet but warm enough to feel you're at home outside of home. Great place to discover new wines as the flights offered can be customized.

The atmosphere/ambiance was perfect on my solo night out for dinner. The duck confit/sweet potato empanadas packed a lot of flavor and the lamb sliders were so delicious and cooked perfectly-- not overdone, juicy and tender. Service was amazing as well. For my drink I had a glass of Malbec as it's my favorite wine. They have 3 Malbec's to choose from. Dessert was tiramisu. It was very good though not so typical as it was served in a bowl.

Very cute tapas and wine spot! Really high quality options at affordable prices. I got the Cabernet flight and liked all 3 of the selections. I also split the meat and cheese board with my friend and it was so tasty! This is the perfect date spot or girls night spot. There's a lot of shaded outdoor seating and indoor seating options as well.
