Corsica Wine Bar

We really wanted to love Corsica Wine Bar, especially since we’re frequent visitors to Barcelona and expected a similar level of quality.

Unfortunately, the food was so uninventive that it was confusing if this was supposed to be Italian or French. Every dish came out incredibly fast but had a heavy sauce underneath that made the flavors taste strange — the sauce under the steak even tasted like fish, which completely threw off the dish.

To make things worse, the steak dish we ordered came out tasting like Salisbury steak.

The only bright spot was the pasta, which was excellent and easily the star of the evening. The simple bolognese was delightful.

Charlie our server was super sweet but unfortunately not all there. How are you going to ask if we're celebrating tonight but then forget to add the candle to the cake.....

It’s a nice space and has potential, but unless they seriously fix the food and consistency, it’s hard to imagine this place lasting long. I wonder if their Denver location has these troubles.

I will say the red head manager did right by us and removed the horrific mussels dish.

Corsica in Reston never disappoints. The atmosphere is warm and inviting — low lighting, a wall of books, and a rustic feel. The staff is friendly and personable, and the food is consistently outstanding.

Shoutout to Antonio, the bartender. His drinks are always on point, food recommendations are spot on, and he’ll keep you up to date with anything new on the menu and at the restaurant. He’s always bringing good vibes to the bar and is always up for a joke. Definitely recommend you see him and try a drink when you visit!

Overall, Corsica is a must-visit for anyone looking for amazing food, great cocktails, and awesome service.

We were excited to finally be able to dine here. I loved that they have a good selection of wine from different countries & regions and also the tapas style small dish food options to enjoy. One of the guests was lactose intolerence and our waiter was so kind and went over the menu to explain the options. We were so touched. The atmosphere is nice and also the art work on the wall was beautiful. I would love to go back soon.

Looks like we've found a new place for happy hour. Still miss Mon Ami, but this is a great redesign. Like a smaller version of Barcelona, mixed with Italy. Great vibe, nice people, good wines. Cheers.

Food is not good; it’s so salty and flavorless and way too expensive for what you get. Our chicken came out raw, yuck! The music is crazy loud!! Can barely have a conversation or hear your waiter. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

Corsica is a terrific place to have small plates or even entree sized meals paired with outstanding wines. We had an incredible Sangiovese with 4 excellent dishes. Our only issue, if you can call it an issue, is that the room was quite loud and boisterous on a Saturday night. Maybe that’s what you’re looking for 😊

We waited until the Brunch menu was available last week to try this new place. Corsica was recommended by one of the managers at their sister restaurant Barcelona which is also in Reston Town Center. We had good food & good service by Guillermo. Small plates came out quite quickly. However the music was far too loud for us at 2-3pm on a Saturday. We will try dining at the outdoor patio next time.

It must have been at the busiest time, but the noise level was totally unberable. Could not hear my table companion. The food was decent, nothing special, and the portions on the small size for the price, or viceversa, pricey. A glass of a regular white wine was $18, the most expensive I have paid in the Reston area. Service was good. In summary: noisy and expensive. Still prefer Barcelona (as noisy) or Six Vines (tiny wine portions), but with better food.

Was excited to try this new restaurant and they didnt disappoint! The food (small plates) was delicious and the menu was unique! We werent planning to but ended up taking the kids and there was enough variety for them as well! The staff was excellent- our server, Gabriel was knowledgeable about the menu and made good recommendations- he was polite and courteous! I was super impressed with their manager Emily who was on her feet the whole time- visiting all tables and customers, serving food, picking up plates and checking in with everyone! We had a great time!

I have come here twice and both times have been excellent! If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, they mark the menu with items you can eat and modify dishes to ensure there is no cross contamination.

The food quality is flavorful and their wine selection is extensive. The best part is if you’re unsure of a drink option, they will give you a baby sip for you to try before you commit to glass. I would definitely recommend and come back!

The food was excessively salty. We ordered five different things and all of them were over-salted. There's not a quiet table in the whole place. The music is too loud. Nothing absorbs sound. Come prepared to shout to be heard by your dining companion. The prices for a mediocre glass of wine are typical of the area. It's just not enjoyable.

Fabulous experience! The food was on point…every single dish! Tuna, chicken thigh, green beans, ravioli, cacio Pepe pasta……and the
chocolate ganache!

What a wonderful new spot in RTC. From the cozy modern design to attentive service and delicious food - the Corsica was a great experience. You must try their ratatouille and the steak tartare and grilled mushrooms were among my favourites as well. Very nice wine list. Will be back!

Many of the sauces that came with the dishes were a miss or odd repeats. Tiramisu is way too small for the price. Probably wouldn't return.
