We were looking for a non-touristy spot after seeing an amazing jazz performance at Preservation Hall. The bartender prior to the performance recommended a few places including The Grapevine. We sat at the bar and were greeting immediately and the bartender Michael was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They start out every meal with individually warmed baguettes and specialty whipped butter, that night it was cracked pepper and truffle. We shared a couple items off of the specials (an artichoke soup that was to die for and a roasted marrow bone topped with Creole style crawfish tails) and then the caprese which may seem simple but was done to perfection with a NOLA flair topped with seafood. The price point was also amazing for both food and alcohol. This was definitely our most favorite eatery experience while in NOLA.

We stumbled onto this place and loved it. Mike, the bartender, is a throwback to the days when bartenders truly liked bartending. He is super friendly and a great mixologist!!

Really like this little place. The bartender, who was extremely friendly and probably spoke faster than any other human alive, was attentive and made a great Sazerac. Would love to return for the food sometime.

Super friendly staff! We sat in the courtyard and it was chilly outside but they provide small heaters under each umbrella so it was warm and cozy. The food was great, we ordered light- soup and an 'app'- and both were fantastic. The cocktails were VERY strong but it's New Orleans!

Right on Orleans, this wine bar truly delights and delivers. There is a stunning little patio out back with the coziest vibes as you're encapsulated by the French architecture and green paned windows. The service was amazing and the they always brought a smile and great wine out. Even when a wine wasn't in stock they offered their equivalent with a similar flavor profile (even matching a price to make it more enticing). The baked brie was nothing to ride home about but it was cool to see the different topping options that they had. I got the surf and turf and the meat was seared really well, but it was missing a bit more salt to round out the flavors. The crawfish was great and added a nice texture to the dish. The potatoes and veggies were just ok and didn't stick out too much.

Excellent food and service. There are three different seating areas that give you different experiences. We like the seating seating inside and in the back which is like a garden.

Absolute hidden gem in the French Quarter. Not open Mon-Wed, but if you are looking for wine and/or healthier meal. Like the rest of NOLA, ridiculously deep pours and large portionsAmazing stop. Amazing pour.
Easily the best meal we had while on our trip. The staff was wonderful, the food was impeccable and the atmosphere was authentic. I wish I had had room for dessert, they looked beautiful as

Nice place in NOLA. Redfish almondine was excellent. Brie cheese app delicious as well. Dessert and drinks were fair. Bar needs better cocktail options. Servers were friendly but scattered and clumsy. Didn't know whiskey options at the bar, and no menu for them. Courtyard seating is very nice.

We LOVE this place. The bartender is probably one of the best personable bartenders in the entire city. He really makes the place something special. - we always sit at the bar. Whoever is in the kitchen creates absolutely amazing dishes. The steaks are not just cooked and prepared super well but the quality of the meat shines through- these steaks are NOT from the local supermarket. The wine selection is great, the atmosphere is amazing, with an automated piano playing great tunes in the background. The prices are cheap but they aren't expensive either. This can be a spot to go to for a special occasion or as a local spot to go to regularly- we go once a week or once every two weeks. I'm giving this spot a rating of "You must visit."

We loved this place. Great wine bar with an extensive menu. The bartender was committed to finding a rose I liked, which I appreciated. We also ordered the cheese board and it included interesting options. It's small and intimate, which was a nice change from typical downtown NOLA.
