About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Welcome to Dua Vino (open for dinner) + The Bar (our 3rd floor restaurant and bar open for lunch and dinner).

Our main floor restaurant offers a contemporary Italian cuisine that will tantalize your taste buds with dishes like baci di mama with truffle oil, fritto misto, scallops, and a 28-day dry aged ribeye. But don't forget to save room for our famous Mama Drita's cheesecake. As you step inside, the atmosphere will immediately transport you to a world of ambiance, with perfectly dimmed lights, hand-painted walls, and upbeat jazz music setting the mood for a memorable evening.

Our third floor restaurant and bar boasts it's own menu with shareable entrees like flatbreads, steak tips and a mouth-watering wagyu burger. With windows that fully open it is quite the spot for lunch or dinner with a view.

Our restaurants are housed in a beautifully renovated historic building in the heart of downtown South Lyon, where no detail was overlooked in preserving its original character.

    This was our second visit…food was good but nothing to rave about. Salmon did not have much taste. Service was very good though. I think there are other restaurants in the area that surpass; however, try for yourself.

    We ended up sitting upstairs at the bar. The view is great and the room is comfortable. We had a couple drinks, an appetizer, dinner and dessert. The food and drinks were excellent. The value was great. We’ll be back!

    Nice restaurant! Good food. Noise level was very uncomfortable. However we recognize that it was due to the large bachelorette party. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience.

    A wonderful surprise! Great blend of antique/nostalgia with a modern touch. Food was to die for- large portions, perfect seasoning- chef's kiss! Service was lovely- attentive, friendly, and efficient. Looking forward to a return dinner experience.

    I frequently dine at Duo Vino and the experience has always been consistent. The atmosphere is incredible, although somewhat loud depending on the time and quantity of guests, which is to be expected anywhere. This visit was one of the best as the tomahawk veal chop was incredible and some of the best veal I have ever tasted. My GF ordered the special seafood pasta and it too was delicious. Our server Megan facilitated the best service experience yet since my starting to frequent this spot amongst the limited options for fine dining in South Lyon. Although other reviews mention it being “over priced”, in our small town you truly get what you pay for and Duo Vino is no exception as the quality is impeccable. I will definitely be returning again and again.
