Breiana and LeighAnne are the BEST servers. My family surprised me with a dinner here and EVERYTHING we had from appetizers to dessert was Soooooooooo GOOD!!! We will be back and we are requesting to be at Leigh Anne's table. Oh and the musician came to talk to us. His music was great ??!!!
While the food was excellent, the service was horrible. Waitress forced her friendliness and totally rushed our meal when there was no need to. No time was given to enjoy the great ambiance. Recommend the Crab-stuffed Redfish.

My husband and I never go out for Valentine’s Day. He got off early and said get dressed let’s go some place. We have heard many great things about this place. We arrived and it was reservations only so we got turned away we spoke to the hostess she was so kind. Half way to our vehicle the hostess comes running out saying she spoke to a manger someone had a cancellation and could fit us in. We were greeted with roses instantly. We loved the food no complaints it didn’t feel like a chain restaurant very authentic. The art is nice to look at and the live music is such a delight. This has turned into one of my family’s favorite spots.

The young man serving water and clearing the table did an excellent job. Our waitress seemed a little distracted perhaps not enough servers. My order was a little bit wrong. But it was delicious anyway. One item that may keep me from coming back was the chair... It was very uncomfortable.

This has been my favorite for years ! I love Grapevine ! The food is awesome and atmosphere always great ! The general Manager however is mean and heartless. I saw her treat a customer like trash . This is really sad . Her favorite statement is " Don't come back ! " I think that is really sad .

Took my wife there for Valentines Day. Service was good, food was fantastic. Had a one-man band playing. Great atmosphere. Only thing that I was disappointed with, was when i received the bill, a 20% tip was added automatically to the bill. At minimum if that their policy they should have a sign at on the front door so costumers know beforehand. We drove a hour from our home to dine there. My personnel belief is a tip should be left up to the customer. I had plan on leaving the server a larger tip, but once i saw it was automatically add, I didn't leave a additional tip. It had been 10 years since i last when. It may or may not be another 10 year. Other than the tip issue. The Grapevine is a really good restaurant..

I do recommend this place they not only have some of the best food around they also have live music and nice servers. The only thing I don't agree with is the price but I get it they are making food that is expensive to cook 4/5 stars would eat here again

Never will I ever eat here again. Our first experience was awesome but tonight was horrible. The waitress we had did not do her job I had to ask can we order appetizers,drinks then our food. While waiting on our food she continued to walk by us and cater to the other “big parties” she had asking them is everything ok you need anything but never not once asked us. I got up went to the bar to order my own drink by this time. So the guy that brought my drink states he was asked to take over our table. I explained to him how we were being treated he send the manager who comes to the table saying she the general manager Trista. I goes to tell her what happen and she says well she had 2 big parties and I’m thinking so that mean ignore us because it’s just 4 of us that doesn’t make any sense. If that’s the so called reason why seat us in that area if she had 2 big parties. The “general manger” came with an attitude because by them she had already been told we were pissed by the one who ignored us the whole time. She says I watched everything I’m no you didn’t because you wasn’t out here general manager . I said I’m glad she asked someone else to take over and Ms manger said so am I. Not knowing we was told what was being said. Long story short how convenient she send a black guy to take over the 4 black people that she ignored the whole night because she had a big party she was tending to. Telling him go see if you know them ,WHAT?? I almost lost my kool but I had to rethink and collect myself. They don’t EVER have to worry about me and my family again because it’s very obvious Trista doesn’t like our kind.

The food was excellent! Had the crab cakes with the augratin!! The servers were very attentive and we didn't have to wait for anything. The ambiance was so peaceful. We enjoyed the music and was able to speak with ease. Highly recommend The Grapevine!!!

Little known restaurant located in the historic district in Donaldsonville and it's a hidden gem. Great prices, great food, great atmosphere and a bread pudding that's probably the best bread pudding you'll find. The staff is always friendly and welcoming.

Born and raised in Donaldsonville, Louisiana, and relocated to Atlanta Georgia. Here for the holidays and planned to reunite with high school friends and meet at the Grapevine in Donaldsonville on the avenue. Attempted to make reservations with Trista who took my call for the initial call and shared with me that she could hold a 530pm reservation. When I called back she explained that the reservation was no longer available. To clarify I reminded her that I had just spoken to her. She immediately became aggressive and condescending. At this time I shared with her that her tone was a bit aggressive and that I wanted to book the 5 pm appointment. She bid me a great day and hung the phone up. I immediately called back and let her know what she had done. No apology was rendered and when I requested to secure the 5 pm appointment she stated that she was denying me service. This proves that Donaldsonville has not evolved and racism still exists. Trista your behavior is totally unacceptable and my God.does not sleep. Be careful of how you treat others because Karma is a real thing. I don't wish you any harm but I pray a lesson is learned in a major way. Black and Brown people, please don't spend your dollars with the Grapevine, Trista don't like our kind.
