34 Best Wine Bars near Fairfax

“My go-to when I'm in town! Fantastic food and service. Highly recommend!“

“Great place to have a delicious dinner, friendly staff and amazing food.“

“Iconic Fairfax destination in the heart of town. Great food! Superb coffee! And wonderful friendly staff! Shout out to Mario who was both the cook and the server for my birthday outing. As it turned out it was also his birthday. Thanks for the delicious avocado toast, the yummy baklava dessert and the happy smiles, Mario! ¡Feliz cumpleaños!“

“Fantastic artisan food. Handmade corn tortillas & quesadillas made from organic corn ground daily in house. Farmers Market ingredients & sustainably sourced proteins. Local new chef/owner & partner are committed to building a community hub around food made with LOVE!“

“Hidden gem of Sausalito! It’s a small scale restaurant where the chef if cooking in front of you simply amazing Michelin-3-star-level food. Don’t come here just for caviar that you can simply buy at a store. Come for the chef’s amazing cooking!“

“Internos isn’t just a bar—it’s a place that feels like home. It’s where friends gather, where familiar faces always seem to circle back, and where the atmosphere is as warm as it is welcoming. The heart of it all is Tony. He’s one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet, and his genuine warmth makes every visit special. Honestly, I’d come back just to chat with him, but the drinks alone would keep me returning too. The beer list is excellent—great options on tap plus a thoughtful selection of cans—and the wines cover the full spectrum, so there’s something for everyone. It’s our favorite spot, hands down.“

“No air-conditioning, so we went outside after we ordered and sat on the sidewalk with car exhaust and motorcycles roaring by. They have a good selection of tasty wines and the charcuterie platter presented well with a nice selection of meats and cheeses. Our first server didn't know anything about wine and confessed to only drinking reds so she brought over a second person who knew more.“

“The best wine bar hands down! Kelly and Giselle are not only friendly but also curate the most amazing experiences. We love special cheeses and they always make sure to add them to our cheese board. We are also members of the wine club where they have the best parties for members!“

“Loved the Bump Bar. Had an early Valentine's Day and Late Anniversary dinner in Feb 11. Enjoyed sitting at the end of the bar. Hosts and chef were friendly and inviting. Enjoyed learning about the Japanese grill used on the trout and steak dishes (which were delicious) never had potatoes prepared like the potato dish we had that night. Really enjoyed the California Caviar Company house flight of Caviar. We will go back again in the future. Thank you for a great night.“

“We heard so much about this place, we came over from San Francisco specifically to try it out! What a perfect spot to have a taste of some amazing wines and an array of incredible cheeses and crackers. You walk inside and it’s a little shop with a bar counter on the right. You order what you like and sit outside and enjoy the beautiful view!! I am so looking forward to coming back on my next visit. Make it a point to stop in, you won’t be disappointed!!“

“Beautifully appointed rooms. Charming contemporary and calming.“

“I recently went to In Good Taste with some friends for a fun Friday evening activity (it's right by the ferry landing), and I can't recommend it enough! Our host, Abby, was absolutely phenomenal. With her infectious enthusiasm and deep knowledge of wine, she made our tasting journey unforgettable and her recommendations were spot on! Abby's expertise and passion for what she does really sets this place apart.

The ambiance is chic yet comfortable, making it the ideal spot for a fun day out or a special celebration. The décor is tasteful, and the layout encourages conversation and connection, which made it even more enjoyable for our group.“

“Of all the Indian restaurants in the Bay Area that I tried, this restaurant has the best food imo. I discovered this place by chance on the way to Napa. After having a full meal, I ordered another meal for takeout because the food was so good. I've been here twice now. It's exceptionally good.“

“The food and wine are fantastic!“

“Wonderful food and service. Highly recommend!“

“An amazing restaurant with an interesting history and spectacular view of the Bay. Great service and food. And the Caprice is fully wheelchair accessible. Thanks for a great dining experience!“

“food is top notch and the bar always manages to overcome being buried!!“

“Starting with the most important thing, the food was fantastic. I got the beef burrito and my friend got the chili and pork stew, and we both loved our meal. We agreed we'd definitely come back because of the food alone. The restaurant operated for 6 years in NYC before moving to San Anselmo, and they've obviously got some great recipes under their belt. The menu is very small, but it seems what is on there is great. The food's presentation was great, too.

The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable without being overbearing at all. The food was brought out in 10 minutes, a perfect amount of time.

Our biggest complaint was that the backless wooden seats (not the booth) were pretty uncomfortable. My friend also said her cocktail didn't have quite enough alcohol and too much ice. Additionally, the music was just a bit too loud for a restaurant. All that being said, the very open decor scheme and atmosphere felt welcoming and original compared to other restaurants... In a good way.“

“I spend my days traveling the world exploring the most exotic wines in the deepest corners of this crazy place we call planet earth, and let me say that Bacchus and Venus did NOT disappoint.

From the exceptional wines, to the friendly staff, to the COMPLETELY odorless stemware, I was blown away. Not a single detail left me wanting more.

No matter the occasion; corporate event, date night, or if you’re just looking for a cool place to jive out, B&V will not disappoint. Don’t wait, hurry in today!“

“Delicious food! Very unassuming, we were so happy we stopped in, food and service were top notch 🍝“

“We were seated quickly and re River our food not long after:). Best pizza we have had in a while.“

“Popped in here on a day trip. The owner was super friendly very friendly especially is hot wheels joke. Definitely if you are in Tiburon stop by and see Jerry at Tiburon wine we'll worth it.we will definitely come in next time we are in Tiburon“

“We had the most delicious pastas and wine! The service was fantastic as well. We highly recommend TKT for your next night out!! Even our toddler was impressed!“

“Fantastic bookstore, with amazing inventory, staff and cafe. One of my all time favorites.“

“Excellent food, great service, wine, deserts. The servers actually will give you opinions about the food if you ask. That a test I have: Will the servers give an opinion if asked or will they weasel out. The staff have opinions about the wine, the main courses, dessert. Lovely experience“

“Love take out. The best minestrone and garlic bread. Yummy. Try it.“

“Stopped there for lunch and it was delicious. Lasagna and Cioppino was delicious 😁“

“Eclectic restaurant in the old part of Hamilton field. Inside and outside seating. Really good and fresh calamari, where you can actually taste the squid. Fish tacos are excellent, fresh fish perfectly cooked and good value. Shrimp tacos were also good. Fettuccine jambalaya had a well developed sauce with a good mix of proteins. Finished with a Snickers cheesecake and strawberry pavlova, both excellent. Service was good with very friendly staff. Only downside was the smell of the deep fat fryer, probably should have sat outside. Recommended and will return.“

“Everything was AMAZING. I'm not sure why this place only has 4.4 stars (at the time of writing this), but from the atmosphere to the food and the staff, you can't go wrong.

Every flavor is matched beautifully, and the portions were light yet full of flavor. I'd highly recommend going yourself or with a group of friends!

*Note, this place was recommended by a French friend 😋“

“Started with a pomegranate gimlet! Best Brussels sprouts ever! Beet salad, Dipsea pizza to die for. Yum. Great service-very personable-attentive-engaging. Food arrived in a timely manner and priced just right.“

“We had friends coming to visit from Arizona and wanted to take them somewhere special for dinner. We heard about the newly reopened Paseo in Mill Valley and decided to try it. We were welcomed by the friendly manager Kevin as we entered. After giving us a tour we were seated in the main dining room by a cozy fireplace. We ordered cocktails along with a charcuterie board and roasted Brussels sprouts. At the recommendation of our knowledgeable waiter Will, my sister and I ordered the beet salad. One of our guests had the Market Green Salad and another raved about her Potato Leek Soup. Wanting to try different entrees we ordered California Halibut, Braised Osso Busco, Mary's Chicken Breast, Rib Eye Steak, and Roasted Duck Breast with orange glaze. The taste and presentation exceeded our expectations. As we were enjoying coffee along with Chocolate Indulgence, a (layered torte) and a Peanut Crunch Bar, Chef Branden approached our table to see how we enjoyed our meal. We all told him how much we enjoyed the food, his beautiful presentation, and the smiling staff. We had a great five star experience and will definitely be back!“

“Yesterday, my sister and I had the BEST table at the Iconic Spinnaker Seafood Restaurant in Sausalito - the at table at the far corner facing San Francisco! WOW - What a beautiful and clear day, with just a 'hint' of fog over the Golden Gate Bridge to the ocean side. The food was Fabulous - mine was a 'classic' "Crab Louie," with lots and lots of wonderful crab, and Tiramisu for dessert! Our servers were Alex and Francisco ("Francisco:))" who attended to our every need - even politely and notably giving extra time, as I was Determined to enjoy EVERY bite of my more than delicious, Crab Louie!! With a menu that is FULL of Classic Bay Area Seafood offerings, an Iconic setting and ambiance, and Incredible view of San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge and The City, I would change nothing about my visit! Thank You Spinnaker for a More Than Memorable Bay Area Experience!!“

“One of the best Fish and Chips meal ever eaten. Delicious Mint Oreo shakes, too. Busy but understandable for a beautiful afternoon and lunch time, at a place which offers such good food! Right off the beach parking lot with park and seating area, and steps away from the beach itself, Parkside Cafe is a place I fully recommend. Extensive menu helped all in my group feel happy ordering from here. Apparently popular with the local population, too. Fast and professional service. Great beach atmosphere.“
