V&V is a new "kid" amongst all the established restaurants in Danville downtown. They offer a breath of fresh air when it comes to the menu - a mixed of fusion dishes coupled with some traditional shareables not to be missed. Their cocktail selection is interesting. I would recommend seating in the patio, it's lovely, quiet and cozy. The service is good, the food is awesome. We had the signature fries, the summer salad and summer pasta and lamb sliders and they are all delicious!

For sure my favorite breakfast place in town, Sunday Branch! People who work there are the best, homemade delicious food, and just feels good to be there all around.

If you are looking for a beautiful and upscale restaurant to host your event or group take this as your sign to do so. Nitin and Sarab were so accommodating and a pleasure to work with. They design your menu to what you're looking for and the wine/drinks selection is fantastic. The staff even helped us set up our decor and our guests still talk about how good the food was. Thank you guys and will always recommend :)

Hands down one of the best places for drinks in the bay area! I come here with my buddies and my girlfriend whenever I get a chance and it's always a good experience. The owners have such a fun story behind the place and are always putting out something new. The cocktails are worth the wait and the most creative I've had outside of the city and vibe of this place is both lowkey and fun.

This is a hidden gem! The food is spectacular - and I really mean that! From the starters, to the entrees and the desserts the food is first class as is the service. Chris was our server and we never had to ask for anything!!! They also have an amazing wine list and funky cocktails with full bar. You don't want to miss this place - it's fantastic! What we ordered: Pistachio Crusted Salmon with cous cous, Rib Eye with vegetables and mashed potatoes, Grilled Pork Chop with Berry Balsamic Reduction and veggies and mashed potatoes. Starter of Brussel Spouts with bacon and balsamic was stellar. The Almond Orange Cake with balsamic oranges and vanilla gelato was to die for!

Had the most INCREDIBLE experience here. Not only are the drinks amazing, but the service is world class and the food is fantastic. Nitin’s cocktails will absolutely blow your mind. The vibe is romantic, warm and welcoming, an ideal date spot. A must visit!!

Great food and cocktails! The beef medallions are amazing…one of my favorite dishes among many. The staff was friendly and attentive. Danville didn’t even know what they were missing until this place came in. Some nights are busier than others, so I still make a reservation. Definitely going to be coming back! Excited to sit in the outdoor garden again

The owner was our server and was really great. Funky vibe and chill atmosphere with an interesting menu. The bartender could use some training as the drinks weren't amazing but still had a good time.

Recently visited Virtue + Vice for the first time and came home impressed. Known for their cocktail program, we can attest to their signature Espresso Martini and Lemon Drops being most excellent! We had lamb sliders that were mighty tasty as well as a tender, moist pork chop and some of the best Vodka Sauce Pasta (another signature) we’ve had. Better than we make at home lol. Local family owned and managed, the ownership and staff are friendly and attentive. Be sure to include them on your dining rotation!

Really nice place and great vibes. Staff was really friendly and owner personally came to talk to us and was very kind. The food was good… but for the amount of money it cost it was just alright. There were many interesting dishes which aimed at doing some kind of fusion but honestly would have been better as one cuisine. I would say the quesadilla and empanadas were 10/10 however. The drinks were meh and desert was nothing out of the ordinary. If it were a cheaper menu , I would give it 5 stars.

The food was delicious and served at the perfect temperature. The drinks were excellent too! However, as others have mentioned, the bartenders do take quite a while to prepare drinks. That said, overall a great experience—and I’ll definitely be coming back.

The current Google rating is very misleading for the quality of food they serve here. I ordered medium rare steak and it arrived fully well done. My friend had a bland, dry Mac & cheese that she couldn’t finish. We were the only party there so it was surprising the chef couldn’t execute our dishes properly. The cocktails were not well balanced, as both ones that I tried were overly sweet. The table service was good.

The only 2 pictures missing are of 2 kids meals: an “Alfredo” and a red sauce pasta. These two items, along with everything pictured- and NO alcoholic drinks- was an $80 ticket, and what we thought were dinner entrees (the lamb and the chaat) were starters/ appetizers…. The bread pictured was $12, the Chaat was around $15 if I’m not mistaken and the lamb sliders 🥴 were about the same. The two pastas ran up the rest of the bill. Really not impressed with the quality. The white sauce pasta was really garlicy, the red sauce pasta was quite acidic in flavor, the lamb sliders had a mint yogurt on them but whatever the aioli was trying to be it had a horseradish-esk nature to it and came with quite a bit of bite; the other thing about them that caught us off guard was how they were slabs of ground lamb… the bread wasn’t anything special and I was a bit shocked for what we got that was above $10 and perhaps this is my mistake, but I anticipated the Puchka Chaat to be similar to a samosa chaat in that it’d be warm, but it was cold. The flavor combos were strong but battled with one another and I was not a fan. I hate to say it, but I feel like virtue and vice was an incredible opportunity for cocktails and libations that had food as an afterthought once the space was acquired. I think the menu needs a re-look and the bar expanded. If this is a “new kid on the block” of old restaurants it’s not long to last. Or people with poor taste are inflating the reviews. This is also the second time I’ve been here. Last time was a year ago.

Sorry to say it was an underwhelming experience. :( The foccacia is okay. The soup was okay. My soup came drizzled in a white liquid, which i assume to be coconut milk with rice, and it had a lime on the side. I'm almost certain that they mistook my order for a curry, but I ordered a soup that should have had celery and carrots in it.

Food quality is not good. Many dishes tasted like they came from a can. Everything was either over seasoned or bland. The three different Mac n cheeses were virtually indistinguishable from one another. Cocktails were not well balanced.

Food was ok. Server was so rude and dismissive and condescending. He kept making strange, belittling remarks and refused to answer any questions about the menu. At one point he just stopped serving us and the hostess cleared our plates, brought us our check, etc. Had to order drinks from the bar. Not sure why he had such a huge chip on his shoulder or who hurt him but he definitely shouldn’t be working in customer service.

Service was very slow. Party of 4, ordered 4 apps and 1 soda, 1 mocktail. Total came to $90. Over-priced, underwhelming food and sub-par service. They asked for a credit card when making a reservation and the place had 1 table occupied with my table being the second. Didn't bother to stay for dinner. I honestly have no idea how this place has a 4+ star rating on Google. We went there for our 20th wedding anniversary dinner and it will surely be memorable for all the wrong reasons. I felt bad for the busboy and left a 10% tip, hopefully he gets it as he was the only bright spot of this establishment.
