The service is great. We had the duck confit which came with a generous portion of pulled duck meat on a bed of various lettuces with a huge fried duck egg on top. I liked it and would order it again.I had the fried chicken sandwich. Really crispy and dark meat with a pimento like cheese. A nice slaw would have been better. The meat was a little dry.

Great service. A table near ours spilled wine, and it didn't really hit us, but the staff was so nice about it even ~possibly~ being an inconvenience and gave us a free round. The happy hour is pretty nice, too; I wish it went later, but that's life. Somewhat menu on the pricier side but everything is good. Also like the atmosphere a lot, and it was in a good location to meet up with friends.

This is a pre-covid review! Came here a few months ago with friends after dinner to grab a drink and hang out. Enolo is such a cute place! Love the decor and ambiance here - it's both beautiful and sexy. It's great for a girls night, date night, etc. We got wine flights ($24) which comes with 3 different pours, 3oz each. I was able to try both the bubbly and white wine flights. I don't really love wine in general but most of the ones I tried here were great! They had a fresh, crisp, and smooth flavor/texture. Would recommend! Apparently they may have had a HH also - would check out post quarantine if they still do it.

The Service and the wines here are all delicious! been here many times and even once of NYE's celebration with a bunch of friends! the only reason I wouldn't give this place 5 stars is the food isn't like amazing but it is good! All in all its a great post-work happy hour or even a post-dinner date drinks spot!

Enjoyed all the flights. Bruschetta and shoshitos were really good. Chill vibe, knowledgable staff. Would definitely return.

Sure, Chicago wines are cute and I like how they add things to the wine like cranberries to give it a certain Style. But California and French wines are such a better purity off the vine. If you're looking for a good wine, I recommend coming by Enolo wine bar.

Nice vibe, great wine selection with some tasty bold reds. The shoshito peppers are delicious with shaved chilis. Do not miss the Bruschetta either (mix and match!) all amazing. Service was great.

Wine flights and cheese platters, what's not to like? Perfect place for a night out with friends, family or your significant other. The cheese platter was delicious (with a gluten free option available!) and the wine flights provided options for all tastes and preferences. Can't wait to go back!

I have walked passed Enolo so many times while out on my lunch break. Last year I had added this to my list of places to come for Happy Hour. Even though I didn't get a chance to make it last year. I was able to come on yesterday with a good friend of mine. My pick of course and I was delighted to come and enjoy a great after work atmosphere. Happy Hour Monday thru Friday from 4 to 6PM. Select delicious wine by the glass for $7.00 and select appetizers for only $5.00 (Truffle Fries, Guacamole,Tempura Shishito Peppers and Calamari. The truffle fries were so delicious. Our host Patrick Laman was amazing. He kept our wine glasses filled and made sure to give us the best service. Very polite and he made sure to engage with all his customers. So far, Enolo Wine Café and host Patrick has been one of my favorites this year. Great energy, Awesome Service, delicious well flavored appetizers and the wine was just what I needed after work. I loved gold wall and the decor of this place. This a great place to unleash some stress for your Wine Down Wednesday. I will be coming back very soon.

I feel like approachable wine bars are hard to come by in Chicago. I really enjoy Enolo. They have a good happy hour, inviting space and solid bruschetta toasts. Even though its in River North, I feel like it flies under the radar. Definitely under-rated!
If you are heading here for a charcuterie board hold off. The piles (yes I mean piles) of cheese looked and tasted as if they were from the bottom of a shredded cheese bag. Instead of giving blocks of cheese they were piles of shredded cheese... not exactly the classic cheese board one is looking to enjoy.

Came here for happy hour over the weekend. While the happy hour deal was great ($7 select wines and $5 select apps), our server wasn't the kindest. I ordered the Verdil which was light and refreshing and my friend ordered the Garnacha which was okay. We ended up only staying for a drink and then decided to leave. Definitely not itching to come back anytime soon but I'd consider coming back here hopefully on a day that isn't as crowded so we receive better service next time.
Atmosphere was a little noisy but joyful. The food was delicious especially the tuna tacos and the bruschetta. The wine flights are the way to go for value and good wine. Our service was excellent.

Great service. Great salads. Great wine

Loved the food. Nice spot for a date. Wine list was pretty good. If you really like wine, ask for the "other" list of wines. Service was excellent.
