50 Best Wine Bars near Daly City

“Always a wonderful time and great service“

“Where do I start. The food is so flavorful, the staff is so friendly, they remembered me after only going one time. I love the atmosphere! It's just nice and cozy. All the food I tried is delicious, but I'm just obsessed with their pork sisig. And of course they have kareoke! Lots of song options.“

“If happiness were a restaurant, I’m pretty sure it would be called *That’s My Jam*. I came in expecting a nice meal and left questioning whether I should move a small bed into the corner and live there permanently.

First of all, the food? Absolutely incredible. Every bite felt like it was made by someone who genuinely cares about flavor, the quality of food they feed to others… and possibly about my emotional well-being. If you're lucky enough to chat with the chef or his wife, do so! You can tell they really put their heart and soul into every aspect of this establishment.

The vibe is warm, cozy, and the kind of place where you instantly relax. The staff were so friendly that by the end of the meal I felt like we were all part of a very delicious support group.

Final verdict: come hungry, bring friends, and prepare to fall in love with your meal. If you hear someone at the next table whispering “wow” between bites… that’s probably me again.

The only issue I have now is I doubt any other resturant will be able to provide my taste buds with the same magical expereince. I live in SJ but 10/10 would happily get jammed here anytime. 🍓✨

“The food in this restaurant is delicious, I hope you have time to try it.“

“buddy has a great vibe but the true star of the show here is the Ilna pop up! We’ve begun to make it a Sunday tradition given the constantly shifting seasonal menu of modern Mediterranean. We’ve been wowed every time but I’d say the various duck confit iterations remain the star of the show.“

“I’ve been here many times and really enjoy the vibe and their wine selection. However, the food could use more attention. We ordered a few dishes and while some were okay, the quality of others wasn’t great, which was a bit disappointing.“

“Intimate and cozy bar with an excellent wine and beer selection. The interior is gorgeous but small, dominated by the bar. The walls look like they’re made of green velvet but it’s actually concrete. The service was friendly, and they made to sure to keep our glasses full. The food is from Ernest, which was a treat. The bread is from Rize Up Bakery and highly recommended with the wine.“

“This is my "go to" place in Burlingame! Fantastic wine selection , nice cool vibe. Austin, and Drea, as well as Jason (owner ), are extremely knowledgable. If you are looking for interesting wine, and a chill atmosphere, this is it. They have Thursday night wine events that are a great value to taste new wines. They get prominent wine makers, and wineries from major areas to have tastings throughout the year as well. They have small bites to nosh with your wine. :)“

“This is such a great neighborhood spot. They have an amazing selection of organic and natural wines if that's your thing, and it's always buzzing with friendly locals popping in for a drink and a chat. Def go for the tasting that changes up at least weekly, it's usually a great deal and good way to try wines you wouldn't usually encounter.

Tala and her team have done a fantastic job bringing this wonderful addition to the neighborhood.“

“Amazing wine bar—we stumbled upon it absolutely randomly and just loved the atmosphere at first glance. We tried 4 different wines, and all of them were excellent. The crab cakes and focaccia were good too. I highly recommend this place for its nice and quiet atmosphere and good wine choices.“

“Hidden gem in San Francisco!

This place is cozy, intimate, and friendly. Book a fireplace seat if you can.

The wine selection is incredible, both bottles, as well as by the glass.

But the real thing that makes SF Wine Society special is their curated flights, which change about every month or so. Great way to expand your palate and try new wines that may become your next favorite.

Friendly and attentive service as well.“

“This is the best wine bar I've ever been to. Live music, incredible food, stellar wine list, amazing atmosphere. I will be bringing dates here for sure.“

“We came here for happy hour on a Monday evening and we were one of the only customers in a nearly empty restaurant, so service was pretty efficient. We almost had the entire staff catering exclusively to us. I'd say the restaurant kind of feels like a cross between a bistro bar and a 50s restaurant with dim lighting. Once we took a look at the menu, of course we had to get a wine flight.
Between 2 of the $13 wine flights, we ordered a Melon de Bourgogne, Merlot, Gamay, and then we were recommended a Rose Grenache, and an an orange wine, which was interesting.

$ 7 Chicken Liver Mousse:
okay! It was topped with chives, served with cornichons.

$10 Jamon Serrano Croquetas:
good! definitely fresh, because it came piping hot. I had to cut it in half and let it steam for a few minutes.

$19 Octopus Carpaccio - pickled capers and pickled peppers, pomegranate:
great! very tangy taste, get it if you like sour flavors

$29 Duck Leg Confit - Grimaud farm duck leg with gratin dauphinois, salad, duck jus:
excellent! crispy skin on duck leg with green salad and radishes helped lighten it up.

When we got our bill, it came tucked inside of a French paperback, which I thought was a cute touch. We got full from happy hour, though two items were not from the happy hour menu. I give Amelie a 9.2/10“

“The owner was so sweet and helpful during my experience here. I had questions and she was very willing to answer and steer me towards things I was looking for. Also, had a lil snack of nuts and I can't remember what they were but they were delish. I would definitely go back.“

“Amazing. Even one of our waiter was amazing. They forgot my sardines and they gave me mussels. Both were AMAZING. Drinks were amazing AND the staff were amazing as well. I dont usually leave reviews unless it is worth my time. Definitely a place to go“

“We had Rompiballe Sandwich and The Milanese Sandwich. Our favorite one was The Milanese Sandwich even if both sandwiches were very tasty. It was very fresh and we liked the harmony of ingredients. Service was fast and we didn’t have a difficulty finding a table. I felt like I was in a nice sandwich shop in Firenze. Thank you!“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“The exceptional service is enough to put The Patio on my favorite list 😊“

“Such a special place. Similar to La Ciccia, Binu Bonu maintains a lovely neighborhood feel. Huge selection of wine (all of it new to me and something I really liked), wonderful charcuterie type small plates (out of this world olives). The stars are the husband and wife that make the magic place happen.“

“Spanish natural wines and tapas that never disappoint

El Chato is a neighborhood favorite with a relaxed vibe, an impressive natural wine list, and tapas that hit the spot every time. Expect canned fish done beautifully, marinated olives, tortilla de patata, and dishes that pair perfectly with a crisp Spanish white. It feels like discovering a secret hideout, except everyone you know already loves it.

Great for: date nights, wine nights, sharing plates, “let’s catch up” evenings.“

“I cannot rave about this place and the food, service and workers enough! I hosted a private event here on a Saturday night with 35 guests and everything was perfect. I don't have many photos of the place and the food we had throughout the night, but everything exceeded our expectations.

The food:
I pretty much ordered the entire menu and every dish was a hit. I had a couple of vegetarians and people with allergies in my party and the staff was extremely thoughtful and attentive to our needs. Myself and my guests' favorite dishes included the mushrooms, scallops (pictured), cod and the steak. Given my event, I had pre-ordered from the menu, but many of my guests kept asking for additional items as they were too delicious to not get a second serving.

The space:
Bosque has the perfect cozy seating, lighting, music and atmostphere for an intimate and personal event. The space feels warm and inviting, also perfect for a date night or a night out with close friends. I had a couple people fly in from out of town for my party and they were so impressed by the space. The lighting and aesthetics were perfect for the many photos we took throughout the night!

The service/staff:
The wait staff, kitchen and managers of Bosque were all so friendly and accommodating for my event. They really emphasized making sure everything was to my own liking and really went the extra mile with the music and AV set up. Throughout the night, the wait staff was attentive to our party, making sure our glasses were filled and that dishes came out at the right pace. I had been planning this event with the manager for about a month and all of our interactions were warm and professional. He's also super knowledgeable and patient about wine selection which I greatly appreciated, and all of his suggestions worked out.

Again, cannot recommend Bosque enough to anyone that would like to host a private event or even just come in for a delicious dinner in an inviting space! Shoutout to the Bosque team for helping make my event happen, it was truly a night I won't be forgetting! Can't wait to go back and indulge on more wine and yummy dishes on another night.“

“Food was good, but did not particularly stand out compared to other dumpling places. Had great service from one server, but the rest were very stressed and hurried. It was hard to get their attention. Food presentation was great and they surprisingly have a large bar. I would come back again and try different items.“

“The cauliflower hoagie is an amazing vegan option! Just let the server know you want it vegan and they can also remove the honey. It was absolutely delicious and very filling! The salad and squash dish also pictured are gluten free but not vegan and were also outstanding! Service was great! Waster was so attentive and helpful in working with dietary restrictions and made excellent wine recommendations. Great vibe overall inside as well - will be back!“

“A nice wine bar with good easy-drinking wines and friendly staff.

We came in just in time for Wednesday’s trivia night, which made for a fun friendly atmosphere!

We had the empanada ($8) which was ok. Overall nice pre-dinner place!“

“Everything is Very Good🥰🥰“

“Truly feels like a neighborhood bar in every sense at the highest level. Cozy, cute, welcoming, approachable, fun. I don't know how many other praises I can heap. My first experience will not be my last. Can't wait to visit again.“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“Aziza is a total mood. The decor hits that perfect sweet spot of dark, soothing, and sophisticated. It’s the kind of atmosphere that lets you really focus on the food.
​And speaking of the food: the dips are the undisputed stars here. Every single one we tried was packed with flavor and perfectly textured. While the flatbread is incredible on its own, its true purpose in life is clearly to serve as a vehicle for those dips.
​The Shakshuka was another standout, beautifully presented with a sophisticated foam that really elevated the dish. We also tried the Cornbread, which was a delightful surprise. I expected a simple side, but it was unexpectedly sweet and completely hit the mark.

The waiting staff was nice and funny.

Any chance of a South Bay expansion?“

“Nice local hangout! Great food, beer and wine place.“

“Good wine selection and friendly bartenders“

“Wolfsbane has been one of the most talked-about new openings in SF, widely described as a must-try dining experience, so I was excited to check it out. Unfortunately, I can’t say I’d recommend it over other restaurants in the city at this price point. I’m writing this review with the level of food and service I expect from a tasting menu in this category.

The food was good overall, but only 3 of the 11 courses truly stood out — the crab, the sole, and the caviar course. The caviar course was excellent. The green apple cream added a slightly sweet brightness that balanced the rich, umami depth of the caviar beautifully. It is a supplement, but if you enjoy caviar, it’s worth adding.

The sole was probably the best sole I’ve ever had. I was initially skeptical seeing it on the menu — it’s often bland, easily overcooked, and paired with heavy butter sauces that overpower the fish. Wolfsbane’s preparation completely changed my mind. The fish is grilled over charcoal, served with a light sauce, and paired with a charcoal-grilled green onion. The result was light, delicate, and deeply smoky without feeling heavy. The green onion added a savory depth that complemented the fish perfectly.

The remaining courses ranged from fine (the artichoke snack) to technically excellent but not especially inventive (the duck). At this price point, I expect more moments that feel memorable rather than merely well executed.

Service is ultimately where the experience fell short for me. Dinner lasted four hours, with long gaps between many courses. Four hours felt excessive for an 11-course meal, and by the end I was restless. The staff were friendly but not particularly attentive. Empty glasses often remained on the table through the next course, and I spent about five minutes trying to flag someone down to order wine, only for the next dish to arrive before I could place the order.

The sommelier, however, was fantastic, knowledgeable, and engaging. Small details added up elsewhere: drink menus weren’t cleared unless requested, and pacing felt inconsistent throughout the night. Individually these are minor issues, but together they didn’t meet the level of service I expect at this price.

Ironically, some of the warmest hospitality came at the very end of the evening when I spoke with a couple servers on my way out —both were genuinely warm and delightful.

Overall, Wolfsbane has flashes of excellence, but in a city with so many strong fine dining options, I wouldn’t prioritize it over other tasting menu experiences in SF.“

“What an amazing and eclectic wine 🍷 list. Wines you won’t find anywhere else. Great food menu too.“

“Super cute wine bar just across the street from Cafe Zoetrope. We were there for a calligraphy class but my daughter was feeling ill so we sat outside for a bit. The sommelier was kind and empathetic; he offered us waters and was talking to her to make her feel less embarrassed. While we were waiting, he even helped a lady park her car. So while we didn't have wine or food, the service is top notch and we'll go back!“

“If you are a caviar lover, you have to go here. They have caviar from their own farm and it is a sustainable operation. The prices are fair for caviar. No, it’s not cheap, but if you consider a small spoonful of caviar at a restaurant is upwards of $50, it’s a solid price. My favorite caviars/roes I’ve tried in order of enjoyment: golden osetra, osetra, estate, baerii, truffled whitefish roe. If you are curious about caviar, Tsar Nicoulai is the best place to give it a try at a reasonable price. Their caviar is wonderful.“

“Great wines and lite bites“

“What an intimate special dinning experience !“

“Loved the vibe here, the place was buzzing with people, and the atmosphere was lively but still comfortable. Outdoor seating is a huge plus if the weather’s on your side.
We ordered the chicken skewers, which came with warm bread and a flavorful sauce that paired beautifully with a glass of wine. Everything was tasty, well-balanced, and perfect for a casual evening.
Definitely a spot I’d come back to for good food, great drinks, and a fun atmosphere.“

“Amazing, the nicest people fells like family in here“

“The Press Club delivered supreme service as always. My star rating was not based on my experience tonight at the R&B and wine event, but my experience in general. Tonight my rating was 3.5 stars in service only because my sister and I got a lemon drop (not a double) and a tonic water and it was $35! The restaurant took it upon themselves to add gratuity automatically. I don't know if this is the rule in general or just the event, but regardless it was very off putting.“

“Great wines and cool atmosphere“

“Awesome and women-owned! Let's bask in the light of this great community of women in the Bay! Love this place!“

“Such a great hidden gem in the neighborhood. We came by for a glass of wine and ended up with signing up for the wine club!
Great venue for live music and socializing- great wines of course. I appreciate that the founder and staff are here to connect with the community. Cheers!🍷“

“A Cozy Haven with Live Jazz

Vics Winehouse is a true gem—warm, inviting, and effortlessly charming. The selection of wines is fantastic, the music is the best in the city. The owner is incredibly friendly and she sings too! She put her heart and soul into this amazing place, always making us feels like home. We’ve always been treated with respect and kindness.
We go there not only for drinks and conversations, but also to enjoy real Jazz music ( so hard to find in the city these days) As live jazz melodies fill the air, the cozy atmosphere becomes even more magical. What I really love about Vics Winehouse is that it never disappoints. You get exactly what you would expect, every time. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxed evening with friends, your significant other, or if you come alone, you can make new friends.“

“A true gem for wine lovers and social gatherings alike. The atmosphere is always warm and inviting, and the wine selection is nothing short of thoughtfully curated. Whether you're catching up with old friends or making new ones, this is the kind of place that always delivers.“

“The food is always delicious, and the waitstaff is friendly. There is a nice eclectric crowd. The owners are impressive -- a family owned business (something that is disappearing in San Francisco). I love this place and am so happy to have them in my neighborhood.“

“Sorella is one of our favorite restaurants in SF. We're moving out in March, so we had to come back to it one last time, and, as with all the other times we have been there, it did not disappoint. 5 star service 5 star food and drinks 5 star setting What more could you ask? Shoutout to Jocyln for bringing us an extra treat at the end of the night and for being a great waitress. :) Timo“

“Yeah this place rocks. Would totally 100% come back here. Bartender was incredible totally has a cool SF classic north beach bar vibe. Lots of room for everyone and a spectacular outside seating to just have a beer and watch the world go by. Come here for a wholesome local experience or for a fun dive bar vibe.

Had the ham sandwhich holy crap. For a dive bar it was kinda perfect. Bread that was toasted perfectly with a delicious jam. Come here.“

“The service, the ambiance and the food.“
