Came here about a year ago and had the best experience with service and food, we decided to come again for date night and prepared to spend some money. The service was unbearably slow. Waiting ten minutes to be met after being seated, then after we finished our wine wanting to order more and a whole bunch of food waited about 20 minutes for a server and nothing. Super disappointed as our past experience was so lovely.

This place has unfortunately taken a nosedive. Came here with my wife for a glass of wine, it was us and another couple in the restaurant. The server, after giving us a menu, went behind the bar to scroll on her phone. I had to get up and give her our order. She apologized, all was good I guess, but then she only poured my wife’s wine and went back to scrolling. We waited 10 minutes before returning to ask for our second glass of wine. She went and poured it but I had to bring it back to our table, she apologized again for getting distracted while polishing cutlery but she was very clearly on her phone the whole time. We downed our glasses and bounced. It’s a shame because this used to be a nice place.

My sister and I took my mom here for her birthday and WOW!!! Such a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the wine selection is perfect!! Our servers, Garrett and Emily were AMAZING! They gave us free bubbles to celebrate my moms birthday and gosh, made our experience so wonderful!
This celebration was everything we all wished for and we couldn't be more grateful!
I highly recommend this spot :)

Me and my girlfriend went here for our 2 year anniversary on Saturday and we had a wonderful experience!! Our server was excellent and we received free bubbles! Yum. We had the cheesy potatoes, the flatbread, and the crème brûlée and it was DELICIOUS😋 we will be back!

Not sure how this place gets such a good score. We had a fairly measly and uninspiring charcuterie plate with two tiny bits of cheese and some salami for $43. Then a tiny flatbread that if you produced at home you'd be disappointed with. The meatballs were the only thing that were ok. Accompanied by a non-alcoholic 'wine' that was pink and tasted vaguely of mineral water. Then a glass of red wine -grenache- that was stalky and characterless. $88 very badly spent.

We came in yesterday afternoon to start off our long weekend and our server, Mali, was just so fabulous! She was very knowledgeable and guided us through the wine list, suggesting the best options, even let us try a sample before we decided! It complimented our charcuterie board perfectly! She was so warm and attentive. It made our evening very special. We will be back

Aillen is the best person on the staff she has the best customer service on the planet
We had such a great experience at The Wine Bar.! Aileen gave us excellent customer service-she was so knowledgeable and friendly. She took the time to recommend the perfect wine and food pairings for our group, and everything she suggested was spot on. It made our evening even more enjoyable. Highly recommend asking for Aileen if you visit! 🍷✨

The dining experience presented several areas of concern, starting with noticeably sluggish service throughout the meal. Additionally, the assigned room felt unconventional, contributing to a less-than-ideal ambiance. Furthermore, the pricing of the wine list was significantly inflated, raising questions about value. This disparity between cost and quality unfortunately detracted from the overall enjoyment of the meal.
Price point are overrated overpriced! You're paying for a 10$ bottle 5x or more lmao!
