16 Best Wine Bars near Sanford

“Great wine. Quiet and very relaxing. Love this place to just get away….❤️😎“

“Ellen’s Wine Room has a chill vibe. The Sommelier really knew her stuff and made our group feel welcome/at home. Great Wine, outstanding Charcuterie Board. Would definitely recommend to those who are looking to get out of the hustle and bustle of downtown and want to be able to hear each other talk.“

“We had their quesadilla and orange and pineapple mimosas! they were delish!! highly recommend. The atmosphere was super beautiful too!!“

“When I heard about this “secret wine spot” tucked away in an Orange City plaza only 5 minutes from my house, I was shocked. How could I have missed it?! Well let me just say, I am IMPRESSED!

I have visited a lot of wine bars and vineyards in the country and beyond, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with how attentive, knowledgeable, and down to earth the owner, Love Lawrence, was from the moment we walked in.

We used a wine tasting for two Groupon that featured 4 decent sized pours (a mix of red and white, but I requested all red) and it didn’t disappoint. She listened to our taste preferences and adjusted the next pour for us *individually*, which I didn’t expect, but certainly appreciated! The choices were excellent and we left with two bottles (most are moderately priced between $20-40) and plan to come back for many more.

Love features a couple of well-known brands, but appears to source from more exclusive vineyards for those unique, bold flavors that you’re not going to find at your local grocery store. The medium charcuterie is good for two if you’re not particularly hungry but still want to experiment with the pairing flavors.

What I loved most was the quiet, sophisticated, yet laid back energy of Love’s space. There’s a variety of seating options in the event that you come with a group or come alone and grab a smaller table or spot on the couch. Come in your work clothes, come in your tshirt, come in whatever. Either way, you can count on a fantastic experience. Don’t wait!“

“I go to Spill about twice a month. Once for great music and the other for fun trivia. I have to say that the two young woman who are always there are phenomenal! I don’t know if other customers notice how hard they work all night , but I do and I commend them. Always a smile , sweet and polite, fast with service! I really don’t know how they keep up, but they do , perfectly. To the owner, you’ve got two gems working for you.“

“Antica Pizzeria Paul and Pam have an amazing ristorante…wonderful people from New Hampshire. Tim was [server] was top notch and customer focused. Eric is the pizzaiolo and he got real SKILLS 🍕 We had the pesto sampler-appetizer, Rigatoni IDA and the Angry Goat pizza. ALL of it was fresh, flavorful and high quality. Go today!!“

“This restaurant is consistently good. Everything is always perfect. The flatbread is great. The chicken and shrimp and grits are also wonderful. The best host Steven is leaving. He was great. If you went there a lot, he knew where you wanted sit. He will be missed. True customer service. P“

“Great place & Great Cigars“

“Antoney and his lovely wife could not be more generous and gracious of spirit. You feel like you are truly in good hands with these two and it's awesome to see a restaurant know the true meaning of hospitality. The food is all made from scratch and is OUTSTANDING. This place is a hidden and rare gem.“

“I don’t normally like dipping sauce with my coconut shrimp but this was the perfect mix of sweet and savory without being too sweet. The crispy duck is phenomenal and so reasonably priced. Don’t forget the coconut sticky rice for dessert. It ends the meal perfectly. Laila (the server at the bar) Chef Nicky were delightful. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Had a great experience here over the weekend. The food was amazing, drinks were strong, and the service is worth writing home about. We started with the fruit/cheese platter and that would have filled us up by itself. I had the grilled chicken Caesar salad, which was one of the best I’ve had. Both drinks i ordered were strong and tasted great. Will definitely be back.“

“Figs Prime provided a wonderful setting for our anniversary celebration. The tuna tartare and rack of lamb were delicious, cooked just right. The bread pudding was a delightful end to the meal. Overall, a great experience worth repeating.“

“Very beautiful restaurant. Food was really good. However, I am an italian and have to say it was not entirely classic italian food. Most of it was not prepped the way I grew up with but I am a little biased. Food was decent. My wife liked it.“

“Great dinner tonight. First time customer but it won’t be the last time. Great service and food.“

“Absolutely amazing. The customer service at the Lake Mary location was so great. Last week we wanted pizza and someone recommended Filomena’s to me so I ordered online. When I ordered it told me it would be delivered within an hour which was perfect. A few moments later I got a text message saying it was going to be 2 hours. Because of this I called to cancel and spoke with Justine. She was great and canceled the order for me. About 20 minutes later she called back to let me know that they deliver in house vs using DoorDash when using the website and that next time we should call to order to skip the third party. The fact that she called me back to tell me this is such great customer service. She needs to be given all the praise or a raise 👀🤣. Fast forward to tonight when I called to place a deliver order, she remembered me and was so great again. Even called the manager to see if they would deliver a little farther out of their radius. I seriously could not recommend you guys enough.“

“We've enjoyed Ruth's Chris in Lake Mary, Florida for years, and the manager, David, has always welcomed us warmly. He consistently makes us feel comfortable, and the rest of the staff works just as hard to provide the same exceptional experience. Highly recommend.“
