Great experience! I love the atmosphere. Heidi the owner was so helpful and knowledgeable and helped me to select a delicious glass of wine. We also ordered a Cheesy Italian Beef Pinsa pizza which was so delicious. Heidi also prepared a large charcuterie board for a special event and it was a big hit. This is my new favorite place to chill. I highly recommend this place

A great place to gather with friends or chill with your date while you sip and sample incredible wines.Try the gourmet made-from-scratch pizzas, appetizers, and sweets.I had the BBQ chicken pizza and it was scrumptious. Hubby enjoyed the bechamel pickles pizza. Truly unique.Comfortable chic ambiance, with quirky mix and match china dishes, groovy background music, and the sounds of multilingual casual conversation.Wonderful service with our knowledgeable hostess, Heidi.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options. They can also customize your order.Dietary restrictions: Super helpful when I inquired about ingredients.Since it's all made from scratch they were able to accommodate easily.They also offer gluten-free options.Parking: Park on the street, in the nearby garage, or across Miner.Kid-friendliness: It's a wine bar. Please leave the kids at home.Wheelchair accessibility: 1-story, flat. No steps. 2 accessible bathrooms.

Cute little place. Food is ok. The owner needs to learn how to say hello, goodbye and thank you to her customers.

We had the most wonderful evening at Uncork, Unwind. We'd had an early dinner and weren't ready to pack it in, so wandered over and enjoyed a full wine bar (with a cool self-serve apparatus), delicious apps (warm Bavarian pretzel with rich cheese sauce), and the marvelous service provided by Heidi and her team. Truly a magical evening. Loved every minute of it!

Chill vibe for catching up with friends. Good selection of wine. Tasty food options. Talked to the owner who's passion for wine is very evident and I'm glad to have a place like this in Des Plaines.

Quiet yet cute spot to hang out in downtown Des Plaines. Good selection of pour yourself wines and foods. We went on a Thursday night with live music, which enchanted the atmosphere. Definely will come back.
