49 Best Wine Bars near La Mesa

“Awesome wine bar, food trucks & live music! Highly recommended!“

“The food the service is amazing. VERY bad experience that little Roma restaurant I should’ve known better that there’s no place like Nonna’s.“

“3/5 for a first timer during restaurant week… the special menu was $50 per person…. we never got any bread with our dinner (and didn’t realize we were left out until we were on dessert)… and, portions were small, so the bread would have been nice, especially for $50… also, the server made us make our food order at the same time as our drinks… personally, i like to have a drink or two before i order my food… so, the service was rushed in that sense… and no one asked me if i wanted a second glass of wine i had the veal and my friend had the lobster ravioli… both tasted decently but, again, small portions… the burrata was amazing and the desserts (tiramisu and lava cake) were pleasant i think i’d like to try again on a night that isn’t as busy, and order off of the actual menu“

“Wonderful! Excellent service delicious food and great atmosphere .“

“A lovely date night restaurant. We didn't do the thing where you get a steak from the deli but def on the list. The burger was the highlight. Spicy Caesar one of the top Caesar salads I've ever had. Wine selection is great and the staff is incredibly nice.“

“My wife and I went to this cozy place for dinner based on a recommendation. GOOD CALL! Our server was pleasant and checked in on us to make sure we were happy. The food was delivered fast and hot. We shared the 16 oz. T-bone steak. It came out pre cut, ready to share. We also ordered a wonderfully great big salad and a wonderful empanada with beef. The empanada was pleasantly spicy, but not overly. The steak came with lovely potatoes. We also ordered a side of broccolini. I’m not a big veg guy, but I have to say the broccolini was delicious. All said the meal wasn’t the cheapest, but was worth every bite.“

“what a wonderful experience. they are so well cared for. beautiful cats that are so friendly and need so much love very clean and the cats have so much to climb on, play with, see and sleep. the hosts were amazing and even let me stay a bit longer. I had the best time. I'm coming bk!!!!!!“

“Wonderful place. Wine selection is wide & the staff are top Tier! I Had a small birthday gathering in the patio & it was perfectly set-up & the arrangement of the seating allowed me to see & talk with the guest celebrating with me. We fit 35 comfortably. Shannon is an incredible server & host. Her customer Serivce is unmatched. Thank you for making this day so special.“

“They have a white sangria that the wife just LOVES. Have to stop in every once in a while and grab a glass“

“We absolutely loved our dinner at Monzu in the Gaslamp! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff struck the perfect balance of being friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. We started with the tartare di tonno, which was incredibly fresh and flavorful—an excellent beginning to the meal. The housemade focaccia deserves a special mention: airy, perfectly seasoned, and quite possibly the best I’ve ever had. For the main course, I enjoyed the bucatini all’amatriciana. The pasta was clearly house-made, cooked to perfection, and the sauce had that authentic depth of flavor that only true Southern Italian cooking delivers. We finished with an affogato, which was the ideal ending—simple, rich, and satisfying. Monzu offers authentic Southern Italian fare with genuine hospitality, and everything we tried reflected both freshness and craftsmanship. I would 100% return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience in San Diego.“

“Bold Bouquet throws the PERFECT events of bouquet making and wine tasting. I’ve been to two and I plan on going to many more! It’s the perfect girls day activity, plus you get to make a stunning bouquet to take home and enjoy for weeks“

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.“

“Amazing atmosphere, good service, and overall just a relaxing wine bar in the middle of the mall.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿“

“We stopped in on a recent trip to SD from NY and stayed for hours! This is the perfect wine bar you have been looking for! One of the most thoughtfully curated wine lists I have seen in a long time. Really exciting varietals and wines from under represented areas like Mexico and Lebanon while still highlighting the classics from CA, Italy and France. A great place to try something new in what feels like a friend’s living room. The owners are beyond lovely and what make the community great! This can’t be missed!“

“Hands-down, the best meal I have had in a long time! The food is so authentic and delicious. The service is impeccable. The cocktails are delightful. I cannot wait to come back!!“

“Very nice environment and outstanding food and entertainment 👌 😀“

“cordialità,buon cibo e ambiente raffinato“

“Incredible service. A hidden oasis on a busy street. The most fantastic selection of wines, snacks, and tinned fish delicacies! Treat yourself to a date here, maybe take some friends. Any time is a good time at Clo’s. I love it here, I’m obsessed, if it was socially acceptable to drink the best wines every day and eat the most delicious snacks I think I’d try to find a way to live in their basement. They truly are one of a kind here in San Diego You won’t be disappointed! Ever!“

“2nd visit and again food and service were great. only complaint was they cleared my dessert when I wasn't finished without asking. took that as hint to leave.“

“LOVE the energy and the beautiful colorful spirits who brought this collective together! Some of the most considerate and dynamic artists I know! Everything revolves around culture, growth, unity, and progress. All of the artists they've brought through their doors, where musicians, artisans, and/ or painters have been amazing.“

“The best dining event in a long while. Food is terrific and the beer is literally ice cold. The owner is delightful! Please visit cause it is a treat.“

“the food is SO tasty, welcoming honey atmosphere, wonderful service in an intimate setting.“

“Tap house with friendly and generous owner.
Keeping one of the most Varietal selections in San Diego. From local California and national breweries
Located on 3rd ave filled with eateries. Always a must to stop by and drink dessert.
You know us adults who choose our sweets 😋 😉 😏 😜“

“Place is fire. So many beers to choose from you don't even know where to start. I'd say ask the bartenders to pick your drinks for you. It's funner that way.“

“Seeing some misunderstandings in the one star reviews, I gotta go to bat for this joint. This is not a Starbucks. This is not a consortium holdings joint. This is a unique and highly curated experience for music lovers, with some nice coffee and food options as well. One commenter below mentioned having customers is the privilege, which in this case I substantially disagree with. The space is meticulously designed and executed with substantial investment, and is unlike any other in San Diego. If you want to experience that you should not arrive here expecting fast casual. For those who appreciate the nuances of quality you will find them here, and your appreciation for the delivery will be rewarded.“

“The Margarita pizza was the best . Thus far from any pizzaria I’ve had“

“Brewjeria is one of the best breweries on 3rd avenue! The food is outstanding, definitely better than your average bar food.

The drinks are good, the service is good too, I really enjoyed chatting with the bartender.

The bathrooms are spacious and clean.

I recommend trying the michelada cubana!“

“I loved the Alice in wonderland theme“

“Todo riquisimo muy amables y atentos“

“One of my favorite bars in the city! Great cigars, deals on drinks, and a vibe that’s always chill but never boring. Staff makes you feel at home every time. I even love bringing in my board games here it’s the perfect spot to relax, hang with friends, and just enjoy the night. Easily one of my favorite bars in the city.“

“My wife and I stumbled upon Majorette while exploring Rolando Village. It looks like a dive bar, but it has a really good beer selection and great food. I'm a fried chicken sandwich snob, and it doesn't get much better than their fried chicken thigh sando. The only real option for my wife (who is vegetarian) was the grilled cheese sandwich. While it was delicious, it would be nice if they would at least offer an Impossible burger substitute for their smash burger. I also wish they were open for lunch instead of just dinner, but such is life. We will definitely be back soon!“

“Went there last night 07/14 for my husband and I's first wedding anniversary. We came about an hour to closing but despite that staff was amazing. Our server was very kind and attentive. The food was absolutely amazing as well and they weren't upset when we misspoke and accidentally ordered the wrong thing, they corrected it and were patient. Have always really liked this location for the friendly staff and will continue to be a patron!“

“We love Parma Cucina!! The food is authentic and they treat everyone like family! Bellissimo!🇮🇹❤️“

“Absolutely delicious food, friendly staff, and cozy atmosphere! This place is wonderful“

“Friends of Friends and Wavy Burgers - This is my favorite coffee shop in National city. It’s artistic, unique, and fun. I always find something new and delicious, and that’s selling it short. I’d take friends or family from out of town here, and I have. Definitely a highlight of National city and the owners should be very proud.

Only vice is sometimes the music is a touch too loud or vile with expletives over and over again… no thanks. Those days I just grab my food and dip. That’s a knock on an atmosphere star.

I will keep coming here! I’m a big fan of their orange Thai tea latte :)“

“Laidback, good wine and friendly“

“A neighborhood gem! Owners are wonderful people and have created a place with a lot of heart as well as being one of the best bottle houses in San Diego.“

“This family does everything right, the food is authentic and always delicious, huge portions and a great value for the price. the young man who I believe is the grandson is so kind and polite when he delivers the food, he even remembers me. Thank you to the entire family for old school food and service. 🙏“

“Amazingly delicious! Can’t wait to go back! From Boston😎“

“I went as a solo traveler and sat at the bar. The staff was so sweet and friendly. They cleared extra space for me so I could order food (it is a pretty small bar area and I get the feeling food is not often served there) the house wine and eggplant parm were so good and again the staff were so mind and warm. Will definitely go again ❤️“

“This place was definitely a 10/10?✨“

“Great food, excellent service, and reasonable prices…the trifecta“

“This place is a real Gem, excellent coffee, tea & pastries. Cigar friendly, with a nice selection for sale. Even as a tourist you get that local neighborhood vibe and they treat ya like family! Staff was so friendly and hospitable! Loved the decor and atmosphere, this place will definitely be one of my go to stops when we visit again!“

“The Fish and Chips, Fish Tacos“

“Our waitress Laurie was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make our visit unforgettable, and every dish we tried was bursting with authentic Italian flavor. Filippi’s Pizza Grotto in Mission Valley continues to deliver the best combination of delicious food, warm atmosphere, and outstanding service in all of San Diego.“

“Glad I came in! The wait at An’s was so long I decided to grab a quick bite beforehand. Nomade was right next door and it was the perfect spot. They serve tapas and some main entrees and even a smash burger and fries if the Spanish cuisine isn’t what you are craving.

Service was excellent and atmosphere was pretty cool. They feature a ton of records on shelves with simple and a slick design.

The food and drinks were delicious! My smash burger was juicy and just the right amount of condiments!

Overall a fun spot and would recommend!“

“We had my birthday celebration at The Godfather and their private room is ideal for large parties. The food was delicious and the service superb! A huge thank you to Salvatore Ercolano, the new Godfather! He was the perfect host for our event and made sure that everything was perfect!“

“Super good ! The bread and the fruit frappe !!!“

“Delicious food and great atmosphere“
