50 Best Wine Bars near Hollywood

“We chose this historic place to celebrate our anniversary and Shirley did not disappoint! Anastasia’s energy is everything! She hooked us up beautifully with a tour of the kitchen area and sat us in the best booth she calls ‘The Mogul Table’ We had the best server, Merideth, whose upbeat and genuine energy was fantastic. This was a well paced meal and worth ever penny. The Rioja was one point and the beef tartare who the very knowledgeable Victor delivered with intelligence and love for cuisine. Also, very important to note that this restaurant won an award - one of the top 25 dishes in LA - the one and only Beef bourguignon! This is a must for your evening and well curated Hollywood experience! Thank you for everything Anastasia - you made our anniversary incredible, Merci!“

“One of the best hidden gems in LA. I stumbled into this wine bar out of curiosity, and it quickly became one of my favorite places in the city—and now I’m a regular.
The wine selection is outstanding: an ever-changing, thoughtful assortment that goes beyond the usual bottles you’ll find elsewhere. Whether you’re a wine nerd or just getting into it, this is a place where you can discover something new every time.
What really makes it special is the staff. They’re not just knowledgeable—they genuinely care about sharing that knowledge in a welcoming, down-to-earth way. Ian, the owner, is incredible. He’s the reason I know anything about neutral wine now. His passion is contagious, and he’s always happy to break things down or suggest something based on your taste.
Whether you're looking to expand your palate or just enjoy a glass in a great atmosphere, this place delivers every time.“

“Farmhouse kitchen is the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever had. On top of the food being great and delicious, the presentation makes you want to order everything from the menu. Chef Bo was so nice to come out to our table and all I can say is she was a very nice, young & talented person. She even made me a special dessert for my birthday. Thanks Bo❤️ I highly recommend this place if you want an authentic, excellent and delicious food. In addition, the place is so full of life. The decor is amazing! I can’t wait to go back and try some of the fancy drinks and dishes on the menu.“

“The food is phenomenal!! Everything is amazing“

“We had such a wonderful time. Amazing wine & terrific food!“

“Great spot with creative offerings and an incredible wine list. Service was very welcoming and friendly and they were very accommodating when we got stuck in traffic and we were a little late for our reservation. My only critique would be they would benefit from serving coffee cocktails for dessert. There was a fancy espresso machine, and all the ingredients to make an espresso martini, but when we asked about one for dessert they said they’re more wine focused, which made sense and I’m a wine nerd myself, but half the bar was drinking regular martinis which was a little confusing.“

“Great night for Luke’s 50th Birthday!!“

“Excellent brunch food and drinks, lovely atmosphere. Chilaquiles, shakshouka and pain au chocolat were delicious. Cannot wait to go back to the patio for dinner!“

“they have an excellent selection of wine here & for a bar, their food dishes were impressive. the tater tots were crisp, the crab fettuccine was fresh, and the bread that came with the burrata was perfectly toasted. i was pleasantly surprised & would love to come back again!“

“The space is not very large, but the staff are courteous and the programming is pleasant. I went on a Saturday and there was open bingo (with no cover required), with some drag performances during the break. Would definitely recommend to others. One of the most enjoyable lesbian bar experiences I’ve had so far!“

“Bacari Glendale: It is a beautiful place we have always wanted to go to. We took two friends for a belated birthday dinner (and as the staff realized it was just that, they even rewarded us with a delicious birthday dessert :-). Great service, nice ambiance, and delicious food - we had the bread (could have been a bit more for the $4,50), then shared the Mac & Cheese topped up with the pear and brie pizza that was the best.“

“We came to The 1917 Wine Bar and Bistro to celebrate my graduation, and it was a great choice. The outdoor space was really nice, and the live jazz made the lunch feel special.

The staff were kind and helpful. We started with red wine, which we enjoyed with the crispy calamari and tasty meatballs, the sauces were really good.

For the main dishes, we had the chicken salad, spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, and cauliflower pizza. Everything tasted fresh and was full of flavor.

It was a lovely lunch, and we’re happy we picked this place for the celebration. Would definitely come back!“

“From the initial greeting, to the lovely outside seating, to the great service staff, to really great flavors, it was a terrific meal. Our whole group concurred, “let’s come back here.”“

“Thank goodness for Offhand! A much-needed natural wine bar for the west side. While there are always people here, you can always find a spot to sit no problem. They do a great job of rotating and featuring natural wine, most of which are from California/the west coast — through them, I learned that my hometown has a natural winemaker I’d never known about! Definitely order the grilled cheese, it’s simple yet delicious.

( Also since I always check reviews for happy hour info — theirs is from 5-7 Monday through Saturday :) )“

“Great wine, fun staff, love it here!!!“

“Great atmosphere and wine list. However many of the dishes were a bit over rich/ light on flavor. And look, I know, don’t go to a fancy wine bar expecting value, but the price of many of the simple dishes (salads, simple pastas without meat) were above normal even for LA. Service was friendly but slow“

“Hannah was an amazing host! She made my friends and I feel welcome and explained the menu perfectly. Bryan and Adrian checked in on us frequently and made sure our meals were just right. I’m really thankful that they made the night special!“

“A very stylish bar tucked away in downtown LA near Grand Central Market feels like an NYC bar. I had a great chat with the owners—they hand-select everything they serve, from small-batch wines to charcuterie sourced from both local and international makers. It’s a perfect spot for a date or catching up with an old friend. Everyone was super friendly, and the doorman adds a nice touch of safety and comfort.“

“We enjoyed everything about our meal from start to finish.“

“Good wine, cheese, and ambience.“

“Great food and a great bartender“

“This place is a chic little spot, all muted tones and stylish details straight off a Pinterest board.

At first, we were seated at a bar-edge table with awkwardly high chairs that left almost no legroom. My husband and I aren’t big people, but it was uncomfortable. We asked to move, and they graciously accommodated us. Not long after, the couple seated there requested lower chairs too, so clearly we weren’t alone. The design here leans more toward aesthetics than function—there was even a perfectly sized table reserved for books and plants that could have probably been utilized for diners. Still, the cozy, lived-in touches, like the coat rack and the homey décor, created the vibe of having dinner at a friend’s fashionably curated house, which was warm and inviting.

We started with the grilled asparagus, which came with a horseradish sauce that added a sharp, peppery bite to the smoky char—balanced and bold without overwhelming. The market salad was crisp and refreshing, full of bright flavors that cut through the richness of the meal to come.

For mains, we ordered the Wild Rivers Purebred Wagyu MS8+ Picanha and the Oakley Wagyu Bavette Steak MS7. Both were absolutely exquisite—tender, juicy, and deeply flavorful, with a melt-in-your-mouth quality that spoke for the quality of the cuts. The seasonings and sauces on the side paired seamlessly with each bite, enhancing rather than distracting from the beef. Definitely one of the bests we’ve ever had.

For drinks, I had the lemonade—an excellent balance of tart and sweet that felt perfectly refreshing alongside the heavier dishes. My husband had a West Coast IPA, which complemented the richness of the steaks with its crisp bitterness.

Our server was friendly and attentive and checked in at the right moments, making sure our glasses were never empty. His genuine hospitality really elevated the whole experience and made us feel well cared for.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered and would highly recommend this spot to anyone in search of a great steak in a stylish intimate setting.“

“The food was very tasty, will be back next time“

“Fabulous for Happy hour and Dinner! Love the wine selections“

“So good!!! Amazing. Love the food. The bok choy pot stickers OOOF! The best. 💜💜💜👑👑👑🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽💞💞💞💝💝👨‍❤️‍👨🧡“

“The wine bar you wish you could stumble upon every night! Great Persian food- you can tell they use fresh farmers market produce. And arguably the best natural wine list in town. This spot is a real gem. Get the Nazkhatoun (eggplant dip) w/ feta, Ghormeh Sabzi or the Fesenjan - both delicious stews. And their tarts for dessert are excellent.

Vegetarian options: Nazkhatoun (eggplant dip) w/ feta, Ghormeh Sabzi, shallot dip, Shirazi salad (cherry tomatoes and cucumber), cucumber dip

Parking: Their parking lot is just south of the restaurant on the corner of Virgil and Melrose“

“Brandon, also the business owner was an amazing host! Thank you, for the lovely night with my girlies listening to Jazz 🎶 music. It was a perfect Thursday evening“

“I loved the place! Been couple times and enjoyed their organic orange wine they had on menu back then (I think it was from either Austria or Germany? Seasonal wine)

And everyone was friendly and pretty fast with the service.“

“Me encanta el piano 🎹 es lo máximo.“

“Great wines, tasty food, and friendly staff!“

“Garson de Cafe is very Chic . Beautiful decor and fantastic customer service. I highly recommend this place to everyone.“

“The wine and food. Great service and very friendly“

“Been here now 4 times and it keeps impressing me. The food quality and flavours are SO good, and the wine choices are great, haven’t gotten a bad one yet. The ambiance is a key element too, making it feels like home/community (the name ‘Companion’ is the right one!) with the LP player, the massive bookshelf, the wooden elements and the tables setup. It’s a favourite for us, where we always bring out friend and family visiting us. Love it’s in our neighbourhood!“

“Great service, tasty food, and amazing views. Good brunch spot.“

“I had a wonderful time at Propaganda Wine Bar. The food was excellent and well made. I forgot my waiters name but he was so sweet and attentive to me and my friend. The music was good, and overall great experience. Thank you to all the staff!“

“Angelini Osteria totally lived up to the hype! We had a great dinner there that night and I can't wait to go back again soon. Let's start with the star of this show: uni pasta. Oh my gosh, it was divine! The uni was so fresh and creamy and the pasta itself was cooked just right. Every bite was an explosion of flavor. We also tried the baked lasagna and it was delightful. The layers were perfectly balanced and each bite was full of rich, savory flavors. Let's not forget dessert! We shared a few different things and they were all great. The tiramisu was fluffy and decadent and the chocolate mousse was rich and smooth. Overall, Angelini Osteria is definitely a must-try for Italian food lovers in Los Angeles. The food is incredible, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes on the menu!“

“Vegan or not, I can’t imagine why anyone would not love this place.❤️“

“This place was wonderful! We celebrated my fiancé’s birthday here, and the staff went above and beyond — they even gave us the best booth in the house. Multiple team members wished him a happy birthday, which was so sweet.😊

The food was to die for! We had the Caesar salad, Brussels sprouts, burrata, Margherita pizza, and Funghi pizza — everything was absolutely incredible.

We’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you so much for making the night extra special, Wildcrust staff!“

“We've been attending a handful of concerts at Hollywood Bowl this year. We loved Fattoush Salad (different recipe from how our family makes Fattoush Salad) but was delicious! The Lamb Chops were OK, but Spanish Fried Chicken was just fried, you can't taste or see any chicken meat inside. I have a feeling all vegie dishes here might be delicious, but not the ones with any meat. Service and atmosphere were amazing! We will go back to try different dishes, but for sure to have the Fattoush Salad.“

“Wow! One of the best hidden gems in DTLA. The food was phenomenal! The baguette alone was worth the trip. And the pasta rescued me from a deep post-election funk. And it wasn't terribly expensive either. I felt like I was on the set of Sex and the City, circa 1999, with Portishead bumping in the background. I wanted a Cosmo and a cigarette. Badly. It was giving the best NYC feels. And I loved it! Shoutout to Christopher for welcoming us!“

“This is such an awesome spot to meet friends or work colleagues, and to stock your wine cooler! Be sure to get empanadas and salad from Puerto Rican Eats.The inside is lively, but mid-century modern cool. There’s also patio and sidewalk seating. Hannah and Ariel will help you find what suits your palate (and they also play great tunes). If Doug the owner is in, you’re in for a treat!“

“City of Vernon Firefighters are rock stars!!“

“Great atmosphere friendly staff and amazing food 😎“

“Super cool 😎 Great place for drinks with friends, cool vibe and crowd“

“I just want to say how much I love coming to Dargenzio Winery. The owner and his staff are always very welcoming. The food is excellent. I love the ravioli and pizza. Filippo, the owner knows his Italian wines very well and does an excellent job with the pairing of the wines with the food, so definitely ask for him and ask him to do that for you.Dargenzio Winery also has a good amount of outdoor space, which is a plus in these times. I definitely recommend you to make reservations and go there. Tell him Eddie said hi and referred you.“

“Had artichoke as a starter and filet mignon as a main course. The food was really delicious, and the service was excellent - but the seating was rough on the bum. Also the music was kind of loud, so it was hard to hear my friends at the table.
Revisited this week. (Brought my own seat cushion-made it a lot more enjoyable.) Still was loud, but the food was worth it! Had a great server and an enjoyable evening. Started with delicious brussel sprouts and cheese board - once again had filet mignon which was medium rare and perfection!“

“My friend and I had a terrific dinner last night at Civico 2064. We were looking for a quiet place for a tasty bite and this was a fantastic spot. Brandon greeted us at the door and made sure everything about the meal was perfect. The space is large but still felt cozy and the atmosphere is very inviting. We order a tasty starter to share and the short rib pasta which was sublime. I am Italian and the freshly made pasta and delicate, yet robust sauce, reminded me of my ancestral home in italy. There are plenty of authentic Italian options as well as a really interesting and large vegan menu. I love vegan food and can't wait to return and sample some things from that side of the menu. This is a terrific local eatery that feels both special and homey and we will definitely be back.“

“Super cute spot with tasty food and a karaoke bar upstairs. The inside is a lot nicer which surprised me cause of the neighborhood but definitely enjoyed it. The mentaiko pasta was delicious along with the salmon crispy rice. The curry crispy rice was very spicy.“

“My favorite part of my trip to LA/Beverly Hills! Edward is the GM. He is very personable, and he and his staff do a fantastic job! The homemade focaccia bread melts in your mouth. Yummy! Highly recommended!“
