27 Best Wine Bars in Nashville

“The Authentique is a charming French wine bar nestled in the heart of East Nashville, where the warm hospitality of owners Philippine and Alexandre sets the stage for a delightful dining experience. The cozy atmosphere, combined with top-tier customer service, creates a welcoming environment for guests. The menu features a delightful array of sweet and savory crêpes, prepared with recipes passed down through generations, alongside a delectable steak tartare and carefully curated charcuterie boards. The wine selection is impressive, with the option of fun wine flights to complement the exquisite flavors of the dishes. The restaurant also offers great happy hour deals and nightly specials, with the added bonus of live music on Fridays and Saturdays. The overall experience at The Authentique is a true gem not to be missed. Bon appétit!“

“Dom was a delight - an incredible depth of knowledge about the wines, and a wonderful help in interpreting the menu - which was Amazing! On his suggestion, we got the pimiento cheese - so luscious and the prefect foil for the butter-baked saltines. Other stand-outs were the bacon and eggs, unctuous!, and the pork pate - everyone's favorite. There were 5 of us so we ordered all 5 entrees. Every single dish was an adventure - extraordinary. The pork with black walnut just was a big hit with our table. My favorite was the "Nashville Strip Steak" - a cut that was near the ribeye portion of a strip steak, I think? perfectly cooked, juicy, beefy,. The potato blinis were delicate and very tasty. Cannot wait to go back. I'm a foodie, and enjoy wine, but am not proficient. The AT ROca sparkling wine was delicious.“

“I enjoyed this place. I really wouldn't call it a restaurant per se since it is in a mall court, but it did well carving out its own niche. That being said, the offerings and pairings were delightful. We sampled about 7 or 8 plates. I mistakenly thought that you got wine to sample with certain cheeses, but that was not the case. This place is not my husband's thing, but he loosened up and picked several things for us to try. I think it's worth a trip just to experience.“

“This is my go-to spot when I’m on C concourse. I adore everyone who's ever been behind the bar, but Tsigereda this morning is a special delight! The breakfast tacos are just amazing (chorizo is my fave) and they are affordable as well…the perfect amount of food for me without feeling overstuffed or wasteful. Excellent Zing Zang Bloody Marys as well! You won’t regret stopping in if you need to kill some time and want to eat well.“

“Super cute atmosphere and yummy food!“

“I have brought family and friends to sixty vines a few times and really enjoy their atmosphere, food, and service! Each time I have been has been 10/10. Parking down on 5th broad and going up to the top is so quick and easy as well. The food is fresh, wine is delicious, and the atmosphere is a fun boho vibe. I have had the pleasure of having Johnathan as our server the last few times and he is so personable , fun, kind, and one of the best on broadway!! One of my favorite spots In Nashville 🍷“

“We have always enjoyed our times here! Perfect conversation time to catch up with friends. The owner is also very welcoming and accommodating!“

“Great little place in 12 South. Lots of wine options, decent bar options and some good non- alcoholic options. Bruschetta board is great and getting to pick 4 options makes it convenient. Their happy hour of bottle and board is a great deal. Their panini sandwiches are all good and the ciabatta or focaccia bread options are fresh and tasty. Great place to socialize with friends.“

“Gorgeous place this should get mission star. Thank you to Anthony my server he was young but did a better job than an older person with lots of experience. He was warm, gracious and extremely well spoken. Gerard also was amazing very friendly. Love these guys I hope the manager takes good care of them.“

“Good vibes. Amazing staff. And the food… good grief. I haven’t had tapas so good since I was in Spain. Everything was absolutely amazing and the olive oil cake was out of this world.“

“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!“

“Beautiful restaurant. Outstanding food. Server was adequate but not as present as I would expect for this type of restaurant. We sat at chefs table which was fantastic except when food runners were chatting loudly waiting for food. But quality of the food was so strong that it overrides the service glitches.“

“I attended the production of The Vagina Monologues last night at City Winery. It was wonderful. The only complaint I have is that servers kept walking back and forth (and often standing or talking too loudly to patrons) in front of us during the performance. That was annoying and inhibited our enjoyment and attention to the performance.
There should be some way to avoid this. Perhaps the venue staff should stop taking orders, serving food and drinks, and taking payment once a performance starts. If there is an intermission, it would be appropriate for them to interact with patrons. There was no such intermission during this program.
It really did inhibit my enjoyment of The Vagina Monologues.
The venue was great overall, though the seating was a little tight.
I'm glad to see that C W now has valet parking, though I wish it had been mentioned at the time I bought our tickets.“

“My fiancé and I are from Athens, AL and we love stopping by the Catio every time we visit Nashville. It’s always a nice start to our trip. Very friendly staff and very adorable kitties ❤️“

“The Bluebird is the top destination for any singer-songwriter out there. I have played there 3 times and it was always my top highlights of going to Nashville!“

“This is a great place for a quick meal.“

“We definitely enjoyed our stay! The roof top bar was amazing. I had the best experience with Tyson up there. He was so kind and knowledgeable.“

“Drinks were amazing. Out of town-ers and didn’t want to deal with the tourism on broadway. Fair prices, GREAT DRINKS; Shelby our bartender was a professional mixologist and so fun to talk with! Sat at the bar for 2 hours and never a dull moment.“

“Amazing food!!!! The meatballs & pasta are absolutely delicious!!! The pasties are perfect!“

“I’m not usually much of a wine drinker, but my visit to pont neuf bar completely changed the way I think about wine. Taylor, the owner, went above and beyond to help me explore different wines that suited my taste with no pressure, no pretentiousness, just genuine enthusiasm and care.

What really stood out was how comfortable and welcoming the atmosphere was. Taylor created a space where I felt free to share my honest thoughts and actually learn something new in the process. It’s rare to find that kind of passion and hospitality in one place.

Whether you’re a wine lover or someone who’s just curious to learn more, I can’t recommend this spot enough. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Cam was an awesome bartender and took great care of us, she even gave us recommendations of what to do in East Nashville,“

“Best steaks and sides anywhere. Ate there again on Sunday night for my wife's Birthday. The steak was to die for. Everything we ate was terrific. The sweet potato casserole is my favorite side. Amir, our waiter, was great. Kept a close check on us throughout the meal. Rose, the Manager, came by a few times to check on us too. She made us feel welcome and made sure our food was perfect. We even had leftovers they boxed up, which made for a great supper at home tonight.“

“Had a great experience last night at the Rutledge downtown. Steve was our server and he did a wonderful job at making us feel welcomed and provided outstanding service. This was my second time at this location and I truly enjoy my experience.“

“The food was excellent and the service started out good but once the valentines rush came in, our table was kind of ignored the last 45 minutes of the evening. We were wanting dessert but it got so late we just ended up paying and leaving. Even paying took forever.“

“Have been looking for restaurant that has similar taste to what Italy has. We ordered the Marinated olives, bread and meat balls as appetizer, flat iron steaks and finished with tiramisu. Everything was delicious! The olives were so good that I bought a jar of them to bring home. Will be back!!!“

“Vacation coming to end fine dining enjoyed a sultry meal and great service.“

“Delicious coffee!! Had the French toast which was so good!! When the check came I was shocked…much le$$ than expected. I’ll definitely be back.“
