12 Best Wine Bars near Martinez

“I really love this place. This oysters bar is hidden gems in downtown martinez. As you know, it is so hard to find oysters bar in Contra Costa county. This bar located in the main street plaza. My husband and I are oysters lover and we are so happy to find this placeOysters were so fresh and tasty. Each week will have different kinds of oysters, you can call them to ask which kind of oysters they serve on that week.Clam chowder was so good, too. But we prefer it to be more a little bit salty. It wasn’t a big deal, we just add some more salt ourself.We went there during happy hour (Wednesday-Friday from 3-6 pm) we ordered “the mother shucker”, it comes with beer or other beverages (depending on your choice). With that $120 price plus $1 off on each oysters, it was really really good deal.Another thing we were impressed is all servers were so friendly, everyone was so nice. This made us enjoyed our food even more.We definitely recommend this place! we love to support small business!“

“The owner is one amazing man! The epitome of customer service and bar tending. All the bar tenders were so knowledgeable as well as friendly. Despite having such a big party right at happy hour he made us feel seen and heard, was able to tend to every other party, and gave us a great experience. This will 100% be our go to bar since we’re local and hopefully we have the pleasure of crossing their paths again! If you have a choice come here and get a pickle martini!“

“I took two friends to Reve to celebrate their birthdays, and we had a relaxing and delicious meal! The atmosphere in the outdoor heated garden tent was inviting and charming, and our waiter Joel was welcoming and gracious. We all enjoyed our starters of courgeres and pomme frites, and the Reve salad was delicious. The entrees of petrale sole and scallops were also delicious and beautifully presented. The desserts of chocolate mousse and lemon tart with birthday candles were a delightful finale. I'm looking forward to returning for another wonderful dinner! So nice to have such a great restaurant in Lafayette.“

“We had a lot of fun at this restaurant. There were six of us. The food was very good, especially the salad bar (many, many choices, very clean, well-presented). Lots of variety of meats that were presented at the table but I heard that a lot of the chicken was dry. The sirloin, ribs, rib eye, etc. were excellent as was the garlic cheese bread (yum!). . There was no shortage of items when we first sat down, so that was great. Service was a bit lacking. Had to ask for several things twice, and this was at a time before the restaurant was really busy. Asked for salt and pepper, because they are not on any of the tables. Had to ask for clean plates several times. The desserts were huge and as it was my birthday, my dessert was free. Was nice that the wait people sang happy birthday to me. Although overall it was a good experience and I had a great time with my family, the tab was ginormous - $700 for 6 of us. Word to the wise, leftovers aren't permitted (i.e. no doggy bags). Would I recommend? Absolutely - however I can't afford to go very often.“

“We went to the library social club for the first time last weekend and had such a great time! The venue itself was cozy, the flatbread was filling and helped with the wine tastings.What was really great was the hospitality! Benjamin was accommodating throughout our visit. He really went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable time. He was attentive, fun, and made excellent recommendations based on our preferences. He unfortunately was dealing a challenging situation with an irrational customer, but he was super professional. He provided the customer options and tried to resolve their issues (even though it wasn’t really his or the club’s fault). We signed up for a membership because of our experience and the service. Looking forward to attending fun events!“

“This was our Valentine's Celebration and the experience was wonderful. Service was attentive yet not hovering. I had the seafood bouillabaisse special and my wife had the beef bourguignon. Both were excellent and a good value. We will definitely return“

“We’ve been members for maybe 6 years and we just love Buon Vino it is a great place to hang out and drink some delicious wine. The atmosphere is always great. We love the new location and all the fun events they come up with. Always our place to go to with my husband and great spot for girls “

“Me and a few friends went out 'bar hopping' - I'm sober personally - I had asked for a cup of coffee truly not expecting much at all.I shared with my best friend beside me and we talked about it all night. I don't say this lightly ~It was the best cup of coffee I have ever had~“

“The restaurant is tucked just off the main downtown area. Relaxed open dining environment. Service was quick and attentive. I had the burger with side salad and crème brûlée for desert. Burger was cooked to order and the salad was a nice spring salad with candied pecans, feta cheese, and a simple vinaigrette. The crème brûlée was tasty but a little less crisp on top than would have been ideal. Overall a good place to grab a bite of comfort food.“

“Pretty good restaurant in Walnut Creek for some classic Italian dishes. The dining space is clean and gives more of an open family feeling to the place. They do also have a nice bar by the front that is kind of separated from the rest of the dining area. The drinks are a little hit or miss here, though. They do skimp on thr alcohol a little bit here, so make sure you order a more liquor-heavy drink or stick with their selection of wines. The food is great and really delicious. There was nothing that our table did not enjoy eating. They do have changing specials, and I highly recommend trying them. The desserts were also very good. Make sure to try their tiramisu since they do give a good portion of it. Overall a great place to take a date or the family.Dietary restrictions: They are able to serve gluten-free pasta upon request.Parking: There are plenty of parking garages if you want to spend money. Not that much free street parking around, though.Kid-friendliness: Good place to take kids for a nice meal with the family.“

“We were there for a special event, so I can't speak to the regular day to day operations. Our food was great, the wine is good, and the beer selection was perfect for me. The place looks and feels great, like you are in a special place. The staff is super nice and ready to help and chat with you. I recommend this place very highly, if you are looking for wine and a place to hang with your friends and family.“
