14 Best Wine Bars near Peninsula

“We had our perfect wedding at the Wine Mill. Everyone raved about the food, flowers, attention to detail, the staff was attentive, music, literally everything was as we had hoped for or better. Steven takes care of everything, an A+ experience.“

“Our favorite wine 🍷 shop by far! Max is super knowledgeable about all the wines and we only go there to get our wine and stock up on our wine cellar! Food is excellent as well!!!“

“I’m going to start by saying the food was incredible. The chicken parm was fantastic and the marinara was really good. I didn’t expect angel hair but it was perfect and not clumpy as it can easily be. The bolognese was flavorful and done very well. If I’m nitpicking maybe the rigatoni was a minute over cooked but my wife didn’t notice. The bread and butter that came out was fresh and the butter was really good. It had something going on that I couldn’t figure out. Maybe garlic pimento or something. Whatever it was it was great. The meatball appetizer we got for happy hour was flavorful and awesome as well. But why 4 stars? The service is average at best. You can tell they need help and are trying to get by. The bartender was super nice but was way out of her depth and couldn’t keep up. She had like 4 tables and the entire bar. In her defense she said she was new and had a lot of tables so if the service was slow she was sorry in advance. I did appreciate that. Finally the price… as crazy delicious as all the food was, it still feels overpriced. 3 small meatballs are a $16 appetizer. The chicken parm was $32. That’s $5-$10 more than what you’ll find anywhere in little Italy and $3 more than Il Venetian downtown which is also high end Italian. TreBelle 10 mins away in bath is also nice Italian and their parm is $26 with a salad and garlic bread. All that being said. It’s really good, I’ll likely come back. But it’s one of the more expensive italian places I’ve seen in the area so plan accordingly.“

“Dean and his wife have made this a true 5 star restaurant in ambiance, food,dress and yes price. And we'll worth it. I was not expecting this in Akron Ohio this is Palm Beach, NY, London quality five star so be ready. it's our go to when I'm in town. The bar is also an Oasis.“

“Just had a great dinner. The best food we have had in a long time. Mushroom Carbonara for my wife, Japanese sea bass for me. Delicious, we had beef tartare for appetizer. Great service. Even the manager was bussing tables (which to me a sign of a well run place where everyone does what it takes). Good job.“

“Favorite restaurant in the Akron area“

“What am awesome place! Really nice atmosphere, very friendly staff, wonderful specialty foods/deli. I had the best grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had in my life. I highly recommend you check out everything this place has to offer.“

“Always enjoy a trip here. The bar staff is friendly and pours heavy.“

“Understaffed for after Mother's Day church service. Great gluten-free pastry choices. The coffee was delicious. ***update- We attended 3 Italian wine tastings this past year. Informative and delicious! Each course is paired perfectly. Great service!“

“Definitely had to change and update from my last visit from a 2 star to a 5 star it was such a great experience. The food was cooked perfectly and the staff experience was definitely one of a kind. Everyone there that was working just took the time to make sure our experience was great. Definitely a huge turn around from when it first opened great work and thank you for such a great time !“

“I just celebrated my birthday here on Saturday in the Oakwood private room and want to thank you and you're amazing staff for doing such a great job with my birthday dinner. Everything was absolutely perfect. Hannah and Izzy did a phenomenal job. The food was great everything was hot we received everything quickly. Hannah and Izzy handled my large amount of guests so well. My guests even talked about how good of job they did and the reviews they will leave on Google. The space was perfect! I'm sooo thankful I was able to book my 32nd Birthday dinner with y'all. I'll definitely pass the word around about y'all excellent service! God bless each of y'all!!!🙏🏾🤗🎊🎉 Blessings, Brittany Young“
