20 Best Wine Bars in Louisville

“We went for brunch! It was heavenly. The espresso martini didn’t depresso. Excellent! My Hubby had a dish with their red sauce & I cannot wait to return for dinner for THAT sauce.“

“We stopped by after an early bird Valentines Day. The staff was so welcoming and lovely. The decor is great and matches us perfectly; he loves bourbon, I likes wine. The game corner with cozy couches was a great place to unwind. The 6 flights were a great option to sample the extensive wine list at a super reasonable price. We are so sorry to have slept on this gem for so long. They hold several events, tastings and socials. Looking forward to adding to our regular rotation and checking out the calendar!“

“My sister and I shared a wonderful evening at Cuvee last night. We overindulged on some recommended reds, and thoroughly enjoyed sharing a few small plates and the dinner special of salmon over fettuccini pasta. We were pampered by the staff and treated to a birthday dessert. We can't wait to come back.“

“This is a definite must I have been here twice and both times I have had excellent service and the food is excellent“

“My bf & I stopped by for a casual night out since we had heard some fairly good things about the place and omg did it exceed expectations. As soon as you walk in you're met with a gorgeous display of plants--most of which you can buy. The bar itself was very clean & the menu was incredibly elaborate. It had a few items I wasn't really familiar with, I tend to go the basic route when it comes to my drinks, but when I saw a coconut matcha drink (non-alcoholic) I knew I needed to give it a shot. As someone who's taking a bit of a break from drinking I don't feel like I missed out in the slightest, it was super light, delicious, and incredibly cute.

The bartender was very personable, immediately asked if we had any dietary restrictions/preferences, & could tell us the ingredients in each drink. He literally told us how one drink was brewed in a way that included shrimp in their process (bf is vegan, couldn't have that one) & it was a canned item--I cannot stress enough how knowledgeable/selective this man was about his menu. He was very easy to talk to (and bless his heart we did talk his ear off for a bit lol), but you can tell how much he cares about his job. We will absolutely be back to try more drinks and maybe buy a plant or two“

“Terrific meal and service!! I“

“Connors has been a longtime favorite of ours. Over the years, we have had several good meals here, with service that often went above and beyond. I know how hard restaurant work is, and I’ve always appreciated the care the staff put in. But our most recent experience left us disappointed. The service was unexpectedly inattentive. We ordered a nice bottle of wine, but our server never returned to refill our glasses. A French fry order was forgotten, and when we asked about it, things seemed to unravel. The server was visibly exasperated. A supervisor eventually stepped in, handled things professionally, and assigned a new server—but by then the mood had shifted. This wasn’t just any lunch—it was a farewell meal with a dear friend leaving town, and I’d hoped for a flawless experience. At over $230, I expected more attentive service. I don’t share this lightly. Connors has been a place we’ve enjoyed many times. But this visit left me disappointed, and I won’t be returning anytime soon. There are many excellent Sarasota restaurants where $250 buys not just a good meal, but service that feels genuinely welcoming.“

“Came here to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and it was truly a memorable experience. We received some of the best service we’ve had in a long time—Tryston and (I believe) Tessa were absolutely amazing! So kind, attentive, and professional. The entire staff was phenomenal.

The food? Incredible. Every dish was beautifully plated and full of flavor. The steak with black truffle butter was to die for. Drinks were good ! I also loved the thoughtful extra touches they added to make the evening special. Even the manager stopped by at the end of our meal to check in and say happy birthday, which I really appreciated.

Highly recommend—can’t wait to come back!“

“Friendly bartenders and delicious drinks (pictured is an espresso martini). There is a patio area in the back where they had bingo, but I did not get the chance to check that out. They offer live music and have outdoor seating, bar seating and large booths available as well. Cozy vibe and a great place to relax.“

“The best and most wholesome individual , Ricky, and the ladies at the front counter were above and beyond. I cannot express the gratitude and appreciation I have for them to celebrate my girlfriend birthday with great hospitality. This was her first time, and after this dining experience she is begging to go back !“
