We visit Englewood a few times a year, and always stop by Vino Loco to purchase the best home made Hummus. Owner has always been helpful when choosing wine for gifts, and we always take a few food purchases w/ us for our afternoons at the beach!!

We wanted something different with friends who were leaving Englewood at the end of season. We sat outside on a pleasantly warm evening. Firstly, the drinks list had a good selection of both wines and beers. We started with an OK bottle of rose Cote de Provence followed by a very good bottle of Chilean Sauvignon Blanc - both very...

Love the food and the wine. Extremely helpful staff. Purchased wine for Easter celebration and staff was able to make excellent choices for me. Nice place to sit outdoors and enjoy a glass of wine.

Having spent a lot of time in Spain and eating a lot of Tapas, I have to say Vino Loco hit the spot. The owner was very knowledgeable about what to offer as authentic tapas not just appetizers. The wine was great...a little taste before you actually buy a glass was offered. You could just about order any type of... More

Just wanted something to snack on and just happened upon this place...there isn't much open in old englewood village on Sunday, but this was just right. We did not have wine, but we did eat. We opted for the brunch menu. Since it is "tapas" portions are small. My only suggestions that I would give owner would be to pay... More

As for the pricing, we serve only organic food, which is 30% higher than manufactured foods. In addition, all of our foods are hand prepared, including sauces, salad dressings, and soups. No fillers, no gluten, no chemicals, no hormones or... More

I can't speak to the food here as we didn't have time to taste it but I can recommend this as a great place to have a glass (or bottle) of wine. The staff was very knowledgeable and helped us make a perfect selection. We were pleased to see a nice variety of types, regions and price points available both... More

Not sure why this isn't higher up the area rankings. Located on Dearborn St in Old Englewood the setting is "old town" and feels relaxed. The majority of tourists to the area seem to give Old Englewood a miss and stick to either the joints on McCall Rd or down at Englewood Beach which is a mistake because they're missing... More

If you can appreciate great organic foods and a fabulous wine selection, this is your place! The cheeses are exceptional. The tapas are what they are meant to be, a compliment to your wine or eventual meal. Its not a buffet! The entree's I have tried there are equally as wonderful and FRESH. The owner and staff are very wine... More

This wine and Tapas bar is just one of many of our favorites on Dearborn!! We love visiting when they have the wine tasting. As I am far from a wine connoisseur these tasting by different vineyards offer me a great learning experience. The cheese platter is my favorite, but the other dishes are very good as well and what... More
