25 Best Wine Bars near Lake Zurich

“Zin is a favorite go-to spot of ours. They rarely disappoint. We sat at the bar this time, and Jorge and Mary both served us. The jovial atmosphere was great fun and the food was excellent. There's a new kitchen staff, but no need to worry - they were great. The tuna tartare was fantastic and the burger was perfect. Don't get me going on the fries... their French fries are straight up amazing. Another good night was had at our neighborhood hot spot!“

“Amazing establishment. The workers were kind, talkative and friendly. They made great recommendations and everything I tried was amazing. I did enjoy the aesthetic and the stained glass, but the food was amazing. I would recommend the Braised Lamb, French onion soup, and sorbet. Can't wait to return. Wonderful wine/bourbon selection as well.“

“After our first visit here with friends, we couldn’t stop talking about when we’d be back!

When we’re with a group, we like to sit at a table, but when it’s just me and my husband, the bar is our go-to spot. The servers and bartenders are always fantastic.

The oysters are fresh and delicious, and the foie gras is served just the way I love—with toast and jam.

The caesar salad is quite good, with a nice touch of pickled sardines.

So far, our favorite entrées are the burger, steak frites, and walleye.

We’re already looking forward to our next visit!“

“Stopped for dinner one night with my father. we had oysters, panini and chopped salad. enjoyable evening sitting outside, friendly staff and good food. will come again soon“

“Just happened upon this venue after dining next door. Kenny escorted us downstairs and I knew immediately I wanted to celebrate my grandson turning 30. Wow wow wow! It totally exceeded my expectation’s and Kenny the King was an amazing host. Memories were made last night. Thank you Kenny for everything. Lynda and family“

“My family threw a surprise bday party for me at Tuscan. It was wonderful! The food was fantastic and never ending! The bartenders made sure everyone’s drink needs were met. We rented the entire place…..great venue for a private event! I highly recommend it!“

“We love Enzo & Lucia!! It is such a cute atmosphere and perfect for a date night!! The menu has so much to offer, including gluten free options. We also love how they offer specials which allows us to try different things. The owners and staff are so nice and accommodating. Highly recommend!!“

“Finally good brewery in the area, so happy that we visited that place that offers very interesting beers. Their Pilsner and Lager are very solid. We also tried Farmhouse Ipa that offers interesting complexion of flavors as it is brewed and then put in barrels that once contained the wine lingering with its flavors almost like saison but keeping the good IPA profile. We will definitely visit again, hopefully soon!! :)“

“This was our first visit and won’t be our last. We shared the charcuterie board, bao buns, and the cookie skillet. All were very good. Our server was helpful and appropriately attentive. Bar service was very good. 100% recommend. Would be particularly fun for a group (lots of items for sharing). We will go back and work our way through the menu! We watched a few groups enjoy many items and one looked better than the next.“

“Was there Thursday night we had Braised Short ribs and crispy Brussels sprouts was delicious service was great the bartender colie made me a special drink Wow will definitely be back“

“Great selection of products and wonderful customer service!“

“Food is great made fresh. Owner and staff are awesome. Very clean and neat atmosphere. They treat you like family“

“You know growing up i loved watching the TV Show 'Cheers'. The theme song says something about 'a place where everyone knows your name'... well that describes Bliss Wine Lounge for sure. No, they aren't a big bar like in Cheers, they are a local wine bar with a wide variety of wines for every budget. And the owner, Alex takes the time to connect with each of the patrons and quick to make a recommendation of a wine you will like. It's not fancy but you will feel welcome for sure. They will have live music from time to time and if you join the Wine Club you will get to experience a variety of unique wines that you wont find at the big wine stores. My wife and I love this place.“

“It's an amazing local bar with a great beer selection. The staff is top-notch and super friendly! If it's your first time there, they make you feel like you're a regular! I'd give them 6 stars if i could!“

“The food is EXCELLENT!!!!“

“You can bring dog. Fast and good service.“

“Nice💯 people alwhays happy“

“Delicious and authentic Georgian food.“

“Quality of the burger I had was good. My companion was less pleased about his seafood meal. He also indicated his tap beer flavor was off/flat, which the server indicated may be from their gas line. Service was a bit spotty/slow. Not crowded for lunch.“

“We enjoyed another great evening at Coopers Hawk Kildeer. We choose Coopers Hawk not only for their great drinks, food preparation and portions, but also because they have substantial Gluten-Free options and dedicated fryers so everyone can enjoy. They take allergy consciousness seriously. While Kyle our server was prompt, courteous, and engaging I have to say the entire staff gave us a feeling they truly appreciated our choice dining with them. Everyone we spoke with or even passed in the hallway smiled and made eye contact. The Pretzel bread (including Gluten-Free bread) along with appetizers (Calamari & Brussel Sprouts) were the perfect size for our party of five(5) to share. We enjoyed a variety of dishes (Chicken, Pretzel-Crusted Pork Chops, Spaghetti w/Meatballs, Gnocchi Alla Vodka, and Salad w/Chicken & Avocado), all delicious. Flourless cake and two other desserts were shared and delicious. Overall highly recommended as we have had consistent high quality food and service at this location.“
