This is such a cute and quaint wine bar. It has a nice selection of various imported wines and food pairings.I really enjoy the orange Gewürztraminer each time I come here, I highly recommend if you like something refreshing and chilled.The inside is nice but I really love their patio in the back. The staff are also quite professional and friendly. We got the artisan bread with their homemade olive oil, and it was absolutely delicious and a great pairing with our wine. I will come again !

Oh this is a cutest little hidden gym amongst the many. The service was great. The wines were fun to try and cheese/bread platter are nice compliments. I'd definitely return!

Walked in on a Friday night after being turned away from another wine bar near by in which our large group wouldnt be able to be accommodated. We sure were grateful that We Olive not only welcomed us, but were so kind and accommodating. It was all of our first time there and little to say, it won't be the last. The staff was friendly and also helpful. There was a check in discount which was awesome and some tasty wines. They also happen to have a happy hour! We ordered some olive oil tasting for us and we had a lot of it left over after we finished the bread. We did ask for another side of bread but didn't know they were charging us or how much it would be for extra bread until after we paid. I wish they would have mentioned it up front, figure it would be extra but a nice curtesy "it's going to be an extra $3 for extra bread" would have been nice. No biggie though, in the end the olive oil fully enjoyed. Totally would come back for more! Especially since they have a variety of wine options available (bubbly, white wine, pink and orange wines, and reds) even some beers. The place itself has plenty of items available for purchase if you aren't looking for a tasting. Indoor and outdoor seating. Happy hour and wine Wednesdays (good wines on a discount!)

We have been a bit slow to change away from using disposable items even though we know it hurts our environment. One of the good things we started doing was buying balsamic vinegar in a refillable glass bottle from We Olive. When I wash and dry the bottle and then go back to get a refill it makes me feel just a tad better. The fact that the balsamic vinegar is really excellent and the price is just for the contents and not the packaging is a side benefit.

Excellent service, nice ambiance, small plates. We certainly look forward to a return visit! The only reason for lower star is because of minimal wine selection. But it's a small place and to me that's understandable. So visitors should be mindful that wine offerings are good but not extensive. Great for date night too!

the olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar from this particular are very good,m, the quality exceeded my expectations. Having visited Italy myself, I was surprised to find that the flavor and richness of these products rivaled those I had experienced abroad, if not surpassed them.The olive oil boasts a smooth texture and a delightful balance of fruity notes with a hint of peppery finish, making it perfect for drizzling over salads, dipping with bread, or enhancing the flavor of various dishes. As for the aged balsamic vinegar, its complexity and depth of flavor elevate any dish it touches, from simple salads to gourmet entrees.While the price may initially seem steep at $19 for an 8 oz bottle, it's important to note that $8 of that cost is attributed to the bottle itself. However, the option to bring your own bottle for refills presents a cost-saving opportunity, allowing you to enjoy these premium products without breaking the bank.Overall, I highly recommend this olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar to anyone looking to elevate their culinary experience.

We were On the Mardi Gras crawl and this Beautiful Place was in the crawl. We had three or four bars, restaurants that we were walking up to, and having drinks and food, and they gave us discounts off off their items for the Mardi Gras.and when we stopped in this Little quaint restaurant we loved it and mostly like to come back, and spend more time taste more of there food, we order a Wine flight and some flat Bread pizza yummy and we got this Delicious olives with our food and Drinks omg these OLIVES were great and wine tasting flight. Was definitely worth it
Andrea G.
Love the salad. The sauce/oil that comes with the flat bread is delicious . I need the recipe!

We wandered into this place on a Saturday night, and the vibe is incredibly friendly and welcoming. A buddy and I each had a wine flight and shared a bunch of small plates. The charcuterie was excellent as was the flatbread. Alison was our server and she was great. Totally thoughtful and upbeat. This is a really great casual wine and dining experience in Pasadena. I will definitely go back.

I don't normally write reviews, however, they sell the real and good stuff here at this location! The olive oil is slightly pricier than what you would find on the grocery shelves, however the olive oil coming from this company is top-notch quality! It does not get any better than this! I have bought multiple 25 fl. oz. bottles and have tried their many different olive oil and balsamic infusions.I will DEFINITELY be coming here regularly! I've even noticed major improvements to my overall health ever since using their oil more regularly in my diet compared to other brands!This is the real deal! Don't forget that health is wealth!
I didn't come upon their olives, but I did have their bread and cheese plate, which is huge, and that and a glass of wine is a form of heaven being played on this dirty Earth. A wonderful place.

Ordered a gift box of olive oils on December 21 to be delivered. They delayed shipping as "they were too busy". Followed up on shipment on January 2 and provided a "soft" date around January 6 but they were not sure. I am ok for delay but no apology for delay, they made us feel like our $100 gift was no big deal(and I guess it isn't to this business)

Came here for a quick get together with a group of 3 and was able to get a spot at the bar. We got the wine flight and also the baked Brie. Both were delicious and the bread that came with the cheese was so light and airy.

The service here is amazing, the ambiance is exceptional, their wine list is endless and the olive oil here is the best I've ever had, even better than the ones I've had in Europe! From the outside it looks like a small olive oil shop but it's also a wine tasting spot. They have indoor and outdoor seating but I like seating outside because it looks like a vineyard even though you're in the city. The menu for the wine options is decent (I always opt for the Napa Valley wines or wines from Sonoma) and the bites on the menu are really what takes this place to the next level. I've had the bruschetta, it's freshly made and so light. It pairs well with their bread. But have to say my favorite is the cheese plates. You get a bit of everything -peppers, walnuts, crackers, fig jam, cheese, french baguette, and olive oil! The olive oil is extra virgin and it smells and and tastes fresh. Olive oil is only as good as what you pair it with but they have the lightest and fluffiest bread- the combo is amazing. It can't get better than that. I'd recommend pairing the bread with the olive oil and then pairing the cheese and crackers with a pepper on top or topping it off with the fig jam. I'm dreaming of the next time I come back! I'd come on Wine Wednesday- their 6 oz. glass of wines are half off! It doesn't get any better than that.
