Dear valued guests, friends, and family,

On February 25, 2024, Old Vine will be closing its doors permanently.

We would like to express our gratitude for the unparalleled support of our loyal clientele
throughout the 17 years that we have been in business. You have all been a part of the Old Vine family, and we can not thank you all enough for your unwavering support throughout the years.

In 2007, we started out as a small cafè, and it was with all your support and patronage that we
were able to grow and build Old Vine Kitchen & Bar. You were all there for us while we shape
shifted and maneuvered our way around the unforeseen challenges that we have faced over the years. We are extremely thankful that so many embraced our small business, in all its forms, so that we were able to succeed for as long as we have.

We would like to thank our staff over the years for being the backbone of this restaurant and for
working so hard to make sure our guests are always happy.

We would also like to thank The CAMP for providing a creative and unique center that has been our home for so many successful years.

Our last dinner service will take place on Saturday, February 24, 2024. We are open Tuesdays-Saturdays starting at 5:00 pm. Additionally, we are available for large private party reservations on Sundays.

We hope to see you for one last evening before the 24th as we open our doors for our last
service.

Our Story

Since 2007 Old Vine has redefined dining in Orange County; first, for more than a decade as the beloved Old Vine Café, and now as the expanded Old Vine Kitchen & Bar. The award-winning restaurant, operated by chef-owner Mark McDonald and sommelier-owner Kate Perry, serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, curating the best of food, wine, and cocktails in a non-pretentious, casual atmosphere. Old Vine remains deeply committed to their tested philosophy of featuring regional cuisine, quality products, and fostering authentic connections with customers.

For almost 12 years McDonald led the helm at Old Vine Café, building a loyal customer community around food, wine, and travel through his seasonal menus, hosting guest chef events, and leading clients on twice yearly trips to Italy. With Old Vine Kitchen & Bar he joins forces with longtime Old Vine sommelier Kate Perry, embarking on a new chapter of championing an eclectic offering of food, wine, and cocktails. As a certified sommelier, Perry draws on her training to create guest experiences that feature wine education and that encourage people to try new wines and varietals outside of their comfort zone. Together, McDonald and Perry use their combined culinary and wine expertise to craft the unparalleled food and wine pairings that have become a hallmark of their menu.

With the 2019 expansion, diners now enjoy a newly designed restaurant space featuring custom metalwork by Mark Gerardi. The restaurant also showcases a series of abstract paintings by artist Paul Kole, along with his work on 80 hand-painted menu canvases. Old Vine Kitchen & Bar maintains their signature intimate seating in the dining room, while adding a full bar, cocktail program, lounge seating, and enclosed outdoor patio that can be reserved for private events.

Engagement with customers and the community remains a priority for McDonald and Perry. They are proud to partner with Melissa’s Produce and local farmers, and can often be found participating in local festivals and events. Chef Mark continues booking spaces for the twice-annual Splendors of Italy tours, culinary-driven vacations through Calabria, Sicily, Basilicata and other regions of southern Italy that feature hands-on cooking lessons from master chefs; winery, historical site, and agriturismo visits; and multi-course meals featuring regional cuisine. Additionally, Chef Mark does international consulting and teaches at the Italian Culinary Institute in Italy where he previously trained as a culinary student under Master Italian Chef John Nocita.
