25 Best Wine Bars near Pleasant Ridge

“Really delicious. The menu is limited, which I think is a good idea as it allows the chef to add and remove items. The Suppli de Teli risotto balls are not your typical Arancini floating in tomato sauce. Your first bite is a mouthful of flavor with a slightly vinegary, black pepper, delicately cheesey and risotto flavor. Don't miss the cheese smear under the Suppli. It adds a light sweetness to the peppery bites. Truly an excellent appetizer. We also had the Polpette appetizer with a deep meaty flavor in the meatball and a delicious tomato ragu reminiscent of Sunday gravy in it's depth of flavor. They offer a meatball sandwich with these meatballs; we will be trying that! For our meals we had Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the Cocoletta (veal chop). The Alfredo sauce is made in the Italian style. Rather than cream, it is made with cheese and pasta water. Really delicious. The pasta was perfectly al dente with a great chew and topped with black truffle ?. The veal chop was cooked to your preference and huge! Mine was med rare and was seasoned perfectly. I never even looked for salt or pepper. Delicious! The baby potatoes were crispy and perfectly seasoned and the asparagus was baby finger sized and grilled well. We were too full for dessert. The wine offering is small, but well curated. We had no alcohol this time. Highly recommended!

Vegetarian options: The usual offerings: salad, margarita pizza, a pasta dish. Minimal, but you can find something to eat.

Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free pasta. I didn't check to see if the pizza had gluten free options.

Parking: Parking on both sides of the building and on the street in front.“

“Amazing anniversary dinner there and did not disappoint!! 5 stars and we will be back.“

“Food is great. Grilled cheese sandwich is epic. Wagyu pastry is a must try. The place is understaffed and chaotic at times. If you order a custom party tray, double check to make sure they didn’t just give you the ‘off menu’ version. I learned that the hard way and had to drive 12 miles all the way back to get the order fixed. No compensation for my troubles. Would still go back because the food is super good“

“Great night out. The food was terrific especially the salmon kabob and the white bean and arugula.
Excellent wine selection and the sommelier made the perfect recommendation for us.
For an open space restaurant it was well suited for a “quiet” meal and easy conversations.
The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and well timed attentive.“

“Stopped in after a Tigers game for a drink. Cozy atmosphere with library inspired storage for wine and spirits. Definitely recommend for a glass of wine or cocktail.

Recommended by @j_r0ze. Large Rose' selection with local wines featured. Had a delicious Lemoncello Spritz.“

“Had a great time last night at Brix. The customer service was phenomenal and the food was amazing . I had a strawberry tequila lemon drop and it was absolutely amazing !!! The ambiance and location are the best !!“

“My lady and I celebrated our anniversary at Bar Pigalle last night, and it was just as incredible as we remembered. We had been once before and absolutely loved it, so returning was an easy choice.

The ambiance is elegant yet inviting. It has that hidden-gem quality that makes you feel special the moment you walk in. Our server, Adam, was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.

And the food? Phenomenal. We started with two expertly crafted cocktails, the Turn on Red and the French Caffee, both delightful in their own way. For appetizers, we shared the beet salad and mushroom gratin, which were flavorful and perfectly prepared. But the real reason we came back...The burger.

I know it’s “just” a burger, but this is the burger I judge all others by. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best I’ve ever had—juicy, flavorful, and just downright delicious. If you're a burger lover, this is the one you need to try.

Bar Pigalle continues to impress, and we’ll absolutely be back again!“

“Wow. What an absolutely fantastic final dinner of 2023! After we managed to find a late dinner reservation for New Year's Eve, it was a relief to discover that our excitement about the tasting menu was well-placed. I would definitely recommend the drink pairings as well! The amuse-bouche featuring oysters from the West and East coasts was a delightful way to splash into the meal. The wasabi and the mangosteen featured in each of the oysters, respectively, complimented the beautiful brine of the oysters in such a wonderfully playful way. This first tasting urged us to pause the menu progression and order an extra dozen oysters to explore the other possibilities. Tasting from Vancouver to Prince Edward Island, they were beautifully prepared and of excellent quality. The first course of lobster salad felt like a summer in Maine. Not that I've ever been to Maine, but the imaginary scene flashed across my vision as I took that first refreshing bite. The grapefruit emulsion worked almost majestically with the light, refreshing flavor of the lobster salad. The tapioca chip was perfect for the crunch to fully bring the different elements of the dish together. A fascinating intersection of refreshment and comfort. The second course was the potato pavé. I'll be thinking of this potato often for the foreseeable future. It was one of those dishes that makes your eyes pop open a bit when you bite it as you realize how good it is. A beautifully layered and seared rectangle of flaky delicious potato resting with a lovely salsa brava speckled with trout roe, topped with tarragon, cured trout, and black truffle flakes. I don't even know what else to say. It was stunning. Sea urchin buttered ramen, the third course, will always be what I wish my at-home thrown-together ramen could be. It was rich, it was luscious, it was comforting. Growing up in southeast Texas, crawfish boils were always some of the most exciting times of the year. The crawfish tails in the ramen brought me back to those summer days eating crawfish with a cold beer. The duck breast for the fourth course was exceptionally cooked. It was juicy and flavorful and made a perfect bite with a bit of cauliflower, raisins, apricot, agrodolce, and foie-sauce. Each bite was such a symphony of flavor that kept me coming back. Last but absolutely not least was the gâteau ardéchois: the chestnut cream cake. Accompanied by cranberry coulis and crispy meringue bites, this dessert was a sweet but still mellow finish. While the coffee mascarpone ice cream was a robust and complementary flavor, we both agreed the vanilla coconut ice cream was the star between the two. Thank you again to the stellar crew at Mink! Happy New Year!“

“Visiting from Pittsburgh, PA - I stopped here on Sunday for the first time. Luke was very pleasant and accommodating. The tastings were awesome. I didn't have a chance to sample any of their food but I definitely plan to come back again.“

“Authentic, delicious and friendly people, super recommend“

“This place is a Gem. One of a kind. It's the perfect place for every occasion. The owners give me hope in humanity and that a solid relationship can happen. The patio the music and food pop ups are top of the line. The wine selection and prices are amazing. 100000 % recommended“

“Great place.
Now to set some of these 1 star reviews straight.
If its the weekend there isn't lunch prices duh!
You can not see an empty table,sit yourself down, and wonder why you didn't get service. Duh!
No reservation? You are not entitled to any explanations other then "You are welcome to make a reservation for 9pm tonight" no one has to tell you how long they are holding an earlier reservation for. Its not yours you are not entitled to answers about a reservation that is not yours. DUH!!
So many negative reviews because you feel as though the employees were looking down on you. I have checked across your other negative reviews and they have the same complaint.... I think you are the problem. DUH!!
Last but not least, Your Husband said he called and was told on a Saturday that reservations were not necessary. Yeah sure. He either called the wrong place, or he was told "We aren't taking reservations for today" that is not the same as reservations aren't necessary and if you do not know the difference you have no business eating at an establishment such as this, stick to coney islands because I guarantee its one of those two things. No one told him that Reservations weren't necessary on a Saturday night. Use some common sense DUH!
Some of you probably read over your negative review thinking that'll show them! Nah, just shows your ignorance and lack of self awareness. I don't work here nor do I know anyone involved. I'm just calling out stupid nonsense reviews.“

“Wow! Had one of our best meals in Sorrento tonight. Make sure to put this one on your list!“

“My husband’s favorite place for Italian!“

“Friendly service, great cocktails and pizza!“

“Rosie has provided us with an unparalleled dining experience. From our initial visit, she has been a standout server, alongside Maya. Her commitment to delivering exceptional, personalized service is evident in her friendly, attentive, and professional approach, making our first experience at Seasons 52 with Rosie a compelling reason to return.“

“Great service and selection! I recommend Sugar House to any bourbon lover!“

“Our nicest neighbors! For years every guest that goes the block down to Folk comes back saying how great it is. Thanks for being our amazing neighbors to the north.“

“We visited Mudgie’s late in the day on their host day for Sandwich Week. The food is always fantastic here but what truly stands out is the level of service. We were truly touched by the amount of effort and care these people provide. We knew we were late in the day and they were out of a few things as everything is fresh. The host took a great deal of time to run through the menu and made sure that the 12 year old we had with us felt fully taken care of. He ordered a grilled cheese and he likes to dip in ketchup. As they make their own and it was a busy day , they were out of ketchup but moments later, our server came by with some. The server had run to another restaurant in the area to make sure this young guy had his ketchup with his grilled cheese. Thank you to Mudgie’s staff for a great experience“

“Our server was awesome. The food was amazing. Our suggestion was the area we sat in kind of felt like you were in a basement. It would have been great if we had a better view of the riverfront. We had a great experience and no complaints would go back again.“

“Great service, food and atmosphere.“

“My friends and I enjoyed Sunday brunch. Our server Sarah was the absolute best! The food was yummy. We had the fried chicken sandwich, burger with fries, and tagliatelle pasta with lamb. We wished for more dessert options, the Tiramisu was just ok. The space is cozy with nice decor, I will definitely be back!“

“If Katrell (Pineapple Daddy) wasn't here...I wouldn't make it a mandatory location. He makes sure my party is happy and that everything is everything. The food is excellent and the service is as well!“
