27 Best Wine Bars in Richmond

“Importante Bodega Bar accommodated my organization when we were in a pinch for space and I couldn’t have been more delighted with their hospitality and food. Their waitstaff was gracious, the manager was so personable, and their event coordinator was on point. But I can’t say enough good things about the food. Everyone took some to go because we couldn’t let that deliciousness go to waste. Even my picky 17 month old loved the left overs I brought home! Their margarita was also phenomenal. Seriously 10/10. Will be back!“

“Lance was great! Wine was delicious, food too!“

“Although I’m from Richmond Va, the food and atmosphere makes me feel like I’m back at home! 100 stars all across the board! Every time I’ve come here (5x) the service is excellent and the Food is Mouthwatering to say the least. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Ms.Sunshine as well as Demarquise and when I the southern hospitality is above bar I truly mean it. If you e never experienced Catfish and grits /fried tomatoes don’t walk…RUN to the Jonesboro location!! I’m literally about to walk in now and order just that! It’s worth the money but even more worth the Organic experience you’ll receive the moment you walk in!“

“Amazing! The most delicious food you could possibly imagine!!!!“

“Phenomenal flavors paired together for sweet and savory dishes. Unique menu options they change regularly! So yummy 😋“

“I am beyond obsessed with Celladora, anytime I’m in Richmond you will find me here. :) Megan the owner is an absolute dear, wealth of knowledge, funny, kind. The food is explorative, fun, tasty, perfect, curious and deliiiiicious!!! An absolute must, text them for a reservation. If brunch you gotta pancake, if dinner buy a bottle, or two!!“

“I love the atmosphere, food and drinks. I know if I want live entertainment, Harlym Bluez will have something going in each night thy are open….be it, be it karaoke, live band, line dancing, game night whatever…the owners and the staff strive for excellence, and want you to bring any issue you have to their attention….I LOVE IT!!! I will continue going back and introducing it to my friends!!“

“We had a birthday party at Memi’s and it was great. The manager was easy to work with and very responsive during planning. The food and drinks were delicious. We used the downstairs lounge, so our group could be in its own, and it suited our needs perfectly. Highly recommend.“

“It was a chilly evening and we decided to stop by this newish French wine bar/café at the corner of Main and Lombardy. Of course the space isn’t newish to us as we have been going there for many years and watched its many iterations from Stonewall Cafe to now, Jardin. The food was incredible, even better than expected. Everyone there was having fun, drinking wine, eating great food with friends .. and the wait staff was great and the servers at the bar equally great. The outdoor seating was packed and everyone there was having fun also! We bought a bottle of Balthazar Cotes du Rhone & and hope to be returning to Jardin again soon…“

“Arthur was so welcoming and, in fact, that is what I would say about the whole atmosphere at this neighborhood wine bar. Oh and, yes, the wine was great too and did not break the bank! The fact that jazz artist, Marcus Tenney will be back to entertain really sealed the deal! ❤️🎶🥂“

“Truly enjoyable meal in a great neighborhood restaurant. Everything was delicious and the service excellent. We enjoyed a lovely cauliflower appetizer, a beautiful, simple fresh salad. Three of our party enjoyed the rock fish. The 4th had an amazing sea food stew with spaghetti. Clearly a favorite of the locals. You won’t be disappointed. (Best to make a reservation.) A little noisy…..“

“I do want to give a shout out to the manager Erin she was excellent very customer friendly and our lunch was excellent“

“Absolutely delicious and great customer service. Highly recommend. The Seafood Pie & Fried Fish are must tried!“

“My husband asked the bartender/head mixologist, Steve Yang, for a gin based dealer's choice and he made the most wonderful drink I've had in a long time. He called it "Some kind of wonderful" it had dill, yogurt, and some other stuff and tasted like some hard to find European candy. Awesome!“

“Bread and calamari were marvelous. I would know, I’m part Italian! 🇮🇹 On top of that they didn’t judge me for underdressing. Bravo! If only this place wasn’t only open in the evening.“

“The food was delicious, service was impeccable, definitely plan on going back!!! 10/10.“

“Solid cheese steak hoagie. Love the sesame roll. We ate at the bar, I enjoyed a crisp topochico, while my partner had a hazy IPA. We split the cheese steak hoagie (minus pickled peps). Classic fries and delicious potato salad. Looking forward to coming back and trying the tomato pie.“

“Amuse was the perfect lunch spot on Valentine's Day. We were seated right by the window, which was a nice surprise. The service was excellent and food was perfect from start to finish. The special raspberry/rose soda made in house was delicious! Highly recommend andding Amuse to your plans when you visit the VMFA.“

“And great mimosas! Also a nice patio to enjoy the day.“

“Where do I even begin? This place is incredible! Hands down, it has some of the best burgers and oysters in Richmond. Every bite was amazing, and the quality really stands out.

What truly made the experience unforgettable, though, was the bartender, Oshane. His professionalism, attention to detail, and skill behind the bar are top-tier. He not only crafts excellent drinks but also creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.

If you’re in Richmond or even just visiting do yourself a favor and ask for Oshane. He’ll make sure your experience is nothing short of exceptional!“

“Very upscale and very good service“

“Briana P. Was absolutely amazing. I cannot express enough how much we enjoyed our first experience. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left she made sure everything was perfect. The blueberry mimosas were so good. The gooey goose bread was 10/10. Her smile, energy, and passion for seeing others come together over a meal was felt instantly. I cannot wait to come back again and hopefully she will be in a managers position. I just hope she’ll make the exception of serving us again. Give her a raise. Give her a promotion. Take a piece of her hair and clone 5 more of her lol 😂 ♥️ I’ve never had such an amazing experience before! Thank you!“

“We came on Friday night for jazz. The performer was WONDERFUL....her voice was silky and sultry and reminded me of Samara Joy! We ordered appetizers, which were all good. However, I was expecting the fried pickles to be cut like chips versus steak fries. Our server, Enjhonae, was absolutely amazing. She was very attentive and extremely pleasant!! Overall, it was a great way to spend a Friday night and we will definitely do it again!!“

“What can I say about this Firebirds in Richmond? Amazing food, service, ambiance and the manager Liliana even came by to make sure everything was perfect. Definitely coming back soon.“

“I made a reservation for 6:30 on a Friday not. I was able to get parking right outside the restaurant. Then my mom got the prime rib medium & I ordered the pork bao buns. We both got two different old fashioned. When I tell you everything was spectacular it was amazing. From the service to the quality of the meats. I will be coming back again and again!“

“We had our 20 year alumni event for about 24 people with dinner, drinks, and dessert. Melissa was super responsive to questions and alterations for the event and the food and service were awesome when we attended. The 2 servers did an excellent job.“

“We've been coming here for years and have always received good food and great service. They also tend to add a touch of class to everything that makes them shine a bit more than comparable places, like the cinnamon buns they serve at brunch and the garlic and oil bread served with lunch and dinner.“
