This place is the tits. Amazing wine stellar staff sexy dark vibes but not unattainable! Really cute and fun. The food is *~fine*~ but always good for a little snacky whilst drinking

One of my fav places in LA. You get to try multiple options of what wine they have open to get something that you like. Always a great time and good vibes. Go early if you want more personalized service and to avoid a crowd. Knowledgeable staff.

The Covell boasts sidewalk seating, which is their prerogative. On the other hand, this privilege does not extend to them the right to commandeer the public right-of-way. When Covell employees deliberately choose to abuse their sidewalk seating privilege to block public access by positioning multiple heaters when the current outdoor temperature at noon is 76 Fahrenheit and the temperature at midnight, Covell's closing time, is projected to be 64 Fahrenheit specifically to block egress to my bicycle which was locked to a public guardrail adjacent to the public sidewalk is no less than the juvenile action of jerks.
If you this attitude toward an anonymous member of the public excites you, then by all means be a guinea pig and find out for yourself if their service is better than the attitude they have demonstrated. Provided you look like you can afford a generous tip, I'm certain your experience will be different. As for their food: It's for the dogs!

The wine is good, service is good, and they know how to pour a proper glass of wine. Easy 5 stars.
Where they can still improve: food options. Heavy bar food. Cheese and carbs mostly. It's good, but some lighter, lean meat and veggie options would be great.

I hesitate to even give a rating as I dont want to blow up this spot. The bar tenders are knowledgeable and friendly. They make wine approachable, and the space it great. It's big enough but not so much that you will get lost in the shuffle. Love the rotating drink menu, but if you like consistency, maybe this isn't for you

This has the:
We are young (Ho!) There's a fire in our soul, we go big or go home together
Vibes. Plus the bottle neck traffic in this street is awful.
A long overdue review but this is the best wine bar in LA, full stop. Every bartender actually cares about getting you a glass of wine that you’ll love and they really know their stuff too. This is a true neighborhood spot that feels so warm and welcoming. While so many LA spots are opening up that sell, like, 4 options of funky wines and calling themselves a wine bar, Covell feels like the real deal and has been for a while.

A wine bar needs a wine list. A wine enthusiast wants to know offering and prices to understand the curation effort at the wine bar. The ambience here is carefully constructed and its enjoyable for that reason. However, the actual wine and food experience is average.

Stopped in here for the first time before heading to the Hollywood Bowl on a Saturday around 4pm. There was a crowd but it wasn't crowded. Plenty of space at the bar, where I sat. Bar tender was super attentive and friendly. Good selection of wines, very diverse, and bar tenders were knowledgeable based on convos I heard. I opted for a juicy IPA bc they have a nice rotating selection of about 8 beers on tap.
Food selections is limited, this is more light fare/snacking. I opted for the charcuterie board with 3 selections of cheeses and meats for $23 (there are more options than that to choose from). Initially they thought that the one meat selection I wanted was out of stock but then half way through my board they found an unopened package and brought me out a plate on the house. They definitely didn't have to do that.
Really enjoyed everything about this place, including the ambience which consisted of low key classic r&b. Highly recommend and will be coming back here with my gf.

Came with a group, but showed up a bit later. No menu, so no prices unless you ask. Asked if I could pay for just myself when I showed up but the server refused said it was all on one tab and to square up at the end. That was actually not the case and some people had their own tab? Wines were fine but overall a weird experience that won't have me coming back.
