18 Best Wine Bars near Pflugerville

“A cozy quiet place with great wine. And live music 🎵“

“My family has been going to Baris since it opened in 1997 when we lived in Pflugerville. My youngest son turned 21 and requested Baris for his birthday last night. We haven't been for a few years as we moved about 30 minutes away. It was so much fun visiting an old fave. Food quality is amazing, the menu hasn't changed and we were delighted to see the daughter that was bussing tables as a kid is now running the restaurant. Such a local gem. Thank you Brianna for your hospitality last night!“

“The staff is always very friendly and welcoming, the coffee is good, and I like the interior. I’m only taking one star off because the wine is extremely marked up, and once you notice it, it’s hard to unsee. For example, an Albe Barolo is priced at $75+, while the exact same bottle can be found at Whole Foods or Total Wine for under $40.

Other than that, this place is great.“

“First of all we need to caveat this review with it being Valentines day and it was very busy and probably not a typical dinner night. With that being said the servers and attendants appeared confused and without proper order. We had 4 waiters ask us if we had ordered. Did they not get tables assigned? We ordered a first order of drinks and they were ok, yet our second order were perfect. Consistency was not there on the drinks. The dinner was great yet they did not ask my wife how she wanted her steak and it had to go back to get cooked to her liking. The attendant primarily assigned to us was incredible given how busy he was. Some of the attendants were underdressed for a formal restaurant and took away from the ambience. I would not rate a low end restaurant this hard but to be pricing food the way you do, more is expected. Overall they did good. I know how hard a valentines dinner night can be.“

“Our server was lovely. Attentive but not hovering as our Girls Night Out group was getting caught up over our first round of drinks. We loved the delicious bruschetta followed by tasty sandwiches (and a to go order for one husband). Cheers to many more fun evenings at The Grove!“

“I hosted a small vendor Pop•Up there this past Fri night, and it was a blast! Great service— and fast! Such a cozy atmosphere, definitely should be your neighborhood spot if you live in Round Rock! The Pepperoni Flatbread is super tasty, and such an amazing array of wines to go with it! Perfect if you have a Girls Night, Date Night, or social Meetup!“

“Mandolas is a wonderful restaurant. I love going in on Thursday. That's the day they have Cannelloni Florentina. It is delicious. Thin sheets of pasta stuffed with braised chicken, spinach, Romano & Fontina cheeses, baked in a became sauce with a touch of marinara. I pair it with a Mista salad. Nice mix of greens, olives, a bit of celery and a wonderful house dressing oils, herbs and cheese. Yum! The wait staff are friendly and attentive. They are the only restaurant in the area that the staff clears away plates and bowls to give you room to rest your arms, or make room for desert plates. It's always satisfying to eat at Mandolas. I take friends or meet friends at the restaurant often. It's nice to see the same staff at the restaurant. Managers and staff come to your table to check on you and ask if you need anything. If you do need something they bring it right away! I will be going back soon.“

“It was a wonderful day celebrating my Big Homie for Father's Day. Our starter dish was the Shellfish Louie Salad. I really wanted him to have the salad that bears his name. Everything was delicious and delightful at Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar An extra special shout-out to James Cooke the Manager, Christian Martinez the wine manager, Yvette the Hostess, Edwin and Joshua our servers! Here's the "cherry on top" ....While we were eating, enjoying dinner and each other Let's Stay Together was playing in the background. Who doesn't LOVE an AMAZING playlist 🥰 #TeamLouVetteDavis 👩🏽‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏽 #BattleBuddy4Life 🫂“

“My husband went on a date night. This was our first time at Sixty Vines. Everyone there was super friendly. Our waiter Jesse was great. He was very informative about the food & drinks. I had a sangria & my husband had a vodka cranberry. Both drinks where perfectly made. We had 3 appetizers, shrimp, burrata & bacon wrap dates. For dinner we had salmon & the rigatoni. The food was great. We will be recommending this place to others.“

“Excellent food, service and atmosphere. The Lasagna was to die for!!! Best ever!“

“Give Bufalina their Due! What an excellent experience all around.

The parking is a little tricky and there tends to be a little wait during happy hour, but trust me - it’s all worth it. This is high quality food made with expertise and love. Many of their major ingredients like the mozzarella cheese are made by a professional in-house and it absolutely shows.

The big stand-outs of our meal were the fried mozzarella and the vanilla ice cream. Yes - I did say vanilla ice cream. Don’t knock it until you try it. It’s also made in-house by a pro.

We also ordered the Talarico pizza and rigatoni pasta - everything was packed with flavor. The mozzarella started us out strong but the entrees still delivered.

We will definitely be coming back.“

“We’ve been to The Water Trough a few times now and in aggregate it is a fun and lively place to dine at. The closest parking is the Orange Garage so the walk over is quick. Breakfast or dinner, it is a nice, clean place with a good vibe and good food. The setting at night is much better as they have live music most nights and put up the garage shutter so you can hear it from their outdoor portion as well.

On the breakfast side of things we sat quickly and service was okay. We ordered the Texas breakfast tacos and the pancakes, hash browns, and bacon a la carte. The breakfast tacos were good. We got them with brisket and the portion was huge, although we wish it came with three tortillas instead of two because it was more than we could fit into them. The eggs, cheese, and brisket all came together and despite what reads as a smaller dish, we were pretty full by it. As for the pancakes, hash browns, and bacon; all were pretty classic versions of them. The pancakes were good, thin and sweet. The hash browns were cooked well with a slight crunch and the bacon was the highlight of the three, full of flavor with a nice chew and crisp. We also ordered chocolate milk, but whatever we got was NOT chocolate milk. It was closer to a frothed drink and had cinnamon in it which was a bit strange. The waitress could clearly see we were not feeling it and she comped it on our bill which was very, very nice of her to do without asking.

The dinner here is much better than the breakfast admittedly. The live music certainly helps and the vibe with the low lighting gives it a very nice feel when dining. We had the country fried steak and LSC burger, both very good. The country fried steak was one of the better ones we’ve had here, extremely savory and the fries were good too. The burger was juicy and full of flavor as well. Beware the fries here are really home fries or cubed fries in case geometry is not your thing.

Ultimately, The Water Trough is a very good place to eat at and is probably a bit overlooked due to its location in The Domain, but between solid food and good live music scene, we don’t see why anyone wouldn’t want to stop by. We’d recommend this spot as an alternative to the hustle and bustle of the north Domain and for those preferring a more relaxed and intimate night of food and music.“
