Ok. The servers were just wonderful. We had a glass of wine on a balcony looking out over the ocean as we tasted different olive oil and vinegar combinations. It was absolutely delightful and I bought way too much olive oil and balsamic. Love it.

Cozy and beautiful wine bar with stunning views. Sitting in their patio is the best, you get to watch the sunset while sipping some delicious wine. Their olives are delicious!

Customer service is excellent, both servers were friendly and welcoming.

We loved the wine barrel and it was very relaxing and quiet. Highly recommend!

We visited every single day during our stay in La Jolla—and for good reason.

On our first visit, we enjoyed the beautiful sunset views while sipping on orange wine and sharing the artichoke flatbread and charcuterie board. It was the perfect way to kick off our trip.

We returned on our second night to purchase a bottle of wine to enjoy back at our hotel. The staff working the afternoons of August 3rd and 4th, 2025, were absolutely wonderful—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their work. One even mentioned how much they love working there, which speaks volumes about the management and ownership.

While I do wish the stools had backs, the stunning beach view more than made up for it.

The team gave spot-on recommendations when we asked for a juicy, lightly tannic red wine—and even let us sample the wines before making a choice.

If I ever find myself in La Jolla again, I’ll definitely be back. Thank you!

This little place is BIG, the view is so pretty, it has a very European vibe. The food is great, we had the pappedeux, salad and the pepperoni flatbread, ahhh and the best brownie bites ever.

Will definitely come back.

Relaxed vibes, nice patio space, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Nicely curated wine list and tasty small bites. The dip duo is a good choice.

Randomly came upon this place because a parking spot opened right in front and I was looking for a cute place to have lunch anyways. Safe to say I’m glad I ended up here!

You enter into their storefront where they have a ton of delicious looking olive oils, dips, sauces, and wines. Then the back opens onto a balcony with a decent ocean view (theres two levels).

Tasty food! Even though I accidentally ordered like a pound of arugula because I didn’t realize it also came on the flatbread LOL. Ended up eating every bite anyways! Under the arugula on the flatbread, there was really good prosciutto, cheese, and grilled onions (yum).

Cute brunch vibe, there were dogs on the patio so definitely dog friendly and outside heaters 👌

As someone who used to frequent wine bars but no longer drinks alcohol I appreciate that they had some very delicious non alcoholic drinks. Nice view!
