Vino Volo — Restaurant in Portland

Service people were wonderfully friendly and as attentive as possible but food/wine was very underwhelming.

The margarita pizzettas are based on a terrible crust, very watery tomatoes with dried instead of fresh basil. The burrata was good but pretty much the only redeeming quality of the food.

The wine was also not very appealing- seemed like all they had was a lot of overpriced options. Unless you're into monopolizing the time of your server or looking up every option on Google- the wine menu doesn't give enough information to make a discerning decision.

Tomato Bisque – $7: Soup of the day, beautifully balanced in both taste and texture, not overly creamy or too tomato-heavy.
