49 Best Wine Bars near Metairie

“Extremly friendly staff! I visited this restaurant on 10/9/22 on a late night about 2 am.. I thought this bar sold food, I was extremely hungry, but only had drinks. The two women there were soooo friendly,I ended up ordering two delicious long islands! They recommended 3 other places my fiancé and I can eat at, and we ended up at lamp lighter. I wish I would of got the two friendly waitresses name. Thank y’all! We will be back.“

“This place is so cute on the inside and the ambiance is nice. I really like their cocktail menus and their outside seating too! The service was good, as quick as it could be with only a few bartenders and a packed house. Definitely want to go back!“

“Everything was great. Our original two servers were very good. However, one of the food runners was very rude. Even to the other 2 servers. We spoke to the manager just to let them know and they were very nice and insisted on bringing us a free dessert. The reason I share this is not to receive anything for free, just to show how it really is a team effort and one bad team member can make or break you. Thank you Flemings for trying to make this right, I hope the runner was just having a bad day and everything was resolved.“

“We really enjoyed our experience here. The staff was very friendly and everyone made us feel welcome. Our food was delicious! I had the lasagna and my wife had the bolognese. We also had the bruschetta for an appetizer and split the lemon mascarpone cheesecake for dessert. I would definitely recommend. Despite this being a special occasion I would definitely return just for regular dining.“

“Always great. Had a precious 1st Communion party of about 10 next to us ... a little loud but adorable. Our server, Chris's service, as always, was great. Food delicious. Yes, it's pricey, but worth it bc steaks are top of the line & cooked to perfection.“

“The service is fast, efficient, and completely knowledgeable on menu selection. The food is always much better than expected & portion sizes are perfect, even for sharing. Every time we dine here, we have expectations not met but exceeded. Doris Metropolitan is our #1 Nola pick every time!“

“In desperate need of a low-key quiet atmosphere in New Orleans, this place hit the spot.Quaint, quiet, some chill live music and some decent wine which is a major challenge in NOLO.Not a huge fan of the self-service wine and cheese board but it worked! Nice outdoor patio.“

“Incredible experience at Bar Marilou! Highly recommend. The ambience was great, the drinks spectacular but Hunter made the evening. Great personality and recommendations. We tried a variety of drinks and all were delicious, balanced and refreshing. If you're looking for a great experience, find this bar and ask for Hunter!“

“I would rate a 10+ if there was an option. I loved the service, ambience and above all the food was cooked to perfection and promptly served! I highly recommend the Cajun seasoning. The filet mignon was superb and the seasoning was a bonus! The Parmesan baked shrimp was simply to die for!!! My first dining experience but most definitely not my last! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Not only was this the best Filet I may have ever had in the US, but James was the most considerate and incredible server. I can not say enough good things about this establishment. Impressive food. Impeccable service. One of the best meals of our lives.“

“Outstanding authentic Italian food! We were a party of five and everyone loved their entrees while we shared several appetizers. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. One of the entrées had lobster cooked to perfection! There are some great cocktails and excellent choices for wine by the glass. Deserts were too delicious. Service was outstanding and the decor was enjoyable. With so many choices in Nola, this one is very highly recommended!“

“Absolutely love Copper Vine. We travel from Mobile to visit New Orleans and since discovering Copper Vine for our first anniversary, it's now a required dining spot! Absolutely loved our waitress' recommendation of adding caramelized onions to the fig and goat cheese flatbread. Service was amazing, food was heavenly, and drinks were delightful. Highly recommend the Black Truffle Fries, Fig and Goat Cheese flatbread, and the Bourbon Glaze Pork Chop! We finished our meal with the Bananas Foster. The artwork in the bathroom is out of this world!“

“This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in New Orleans. The food is outstanding, without trying too hard or overdoing it in any way. Pairings of flavors are superb, the food is consistently outstanding, and the service is knowledgeable and spot on. The location is perfect, too.“

“All of my senses were OVERWHELMED with pleasure at Criollo's Jazz Brunch! The service and food was superb Michelin level quality. The live jazz band kept me entertained as I was coursed out. The chef elevated the fried green tomatoes and chicken biscuit to an award winning level. The chicken biscuit was smothered in jalapeño's, scallions and the best rue I have ever tasted so I sent my compliments to the chef. Every delectable bite forced my eyes shut so I could deeply enjoy the freshness, flavor and texture. While I was enjoying coffee the chef sent complimentary Rosemary & Lemon Custard Madeline's. It was an innovative way to approach this classic pastry. My only critique is the custard on top was so good I wanted more. Very light, fresh, and balanced melody of flavors. The consistency was reminiscent of a fusion between a scone and puff pastry. You can tell the French invited fries by how well the fries here complimented every dish. It was such a phenomenal experience, I found myself making reservations for the next day halfway through brunch and I am happy to say the food, service and entertainment are consistently great here. The fancy French atmosphere at Hotel Monteleone was fit for a Queen and the bathroom attendant cleaned the stall prior to each guests use. This is a must try spot in The French Quarter.“

“such a cute lil spot. only got one dish and it was very good (crudités) and wish i could go regularly to try more stuff because what i had was so promising! but the star of what i tried was the soft serve (chocolate with chili crisp), it was smooth and creamy and a nice level of chocolate. good vibes and folks. if i lived in new orleans would hit this spot up often!“

“Awesome dinner as always. Made reservations at the last minute and they accommodated us right away and then when we arrived we were seated right away. Steaks, creamed spinach, asparagus and so much more was perfect. Our waiter Travis was the best! Seeing Glenn Bove made our night extra special.“

“Pluck has a terrific selection of wines by the glass and the bottle. The wines you will find here are carefully selected and there are several fun surprises beyond the usual suspects. The food is also excellent. And the staff are knowledgeable and well trained.“

“Effervescence is a little off the beaten path but is worth the journey. They have an excellent selection of bubbly by the glass, it's not only Champagne but from all around the world. The brussels sprouts were some of the best I've eaten but the food in general was very good. The owner is very friendly, highly recommend making this part of your New Orleans food experience!“

“we have been there on numerous occasions .consistent great foods ,cooked to perfection ,extra ordinary wine selections at very reasonable price points ,and excellent service staff.,happy hours are also great as are the weekly free new wine samples, all staff are very knowledgeable and food is perfectly prepared ,will continue to eat here“

“I forgot to take pictures, but there are plenty on here. I ordered the iced carmel latte & a smores stuffed beignet. They put 4 shots of espresso in their latte, I opted for 3 and it was still very strong to me. The staff was very nice and helped me right away. You order at a counter in the back, wait for your drink and then take a table tent for them to bring the beignet. Mine had a picture of Bob Marley. The ambiance is very cool, I would love to just hang out here, it's very relaxed, even on a Saturday & packed. The Beignet was just okay. It was kind of floating in a pool of melted chocolate and some sort of sweet white sauce. It had chunks of graham cracker on top, but they got soggy pretty quickly. It was hard to cut through with a fork too. I didn't really get any marshmallow flavor. I will go back and try some other flavors in the future. The beignet had a pretty good flavor to it, especially the chocolate, but it was messy and difficult to eat.“

“I need more stars for this one! Everything was great! I have an unusual food allergy. I don't make a big deal of it but ask the staff to let me know if I order anything with this item and I'll change my order. Our server came back with a menu that the chef had taken a minute to mark the 3 items I needed to avoid an 2 items that could be prepared without! ABOVE and BEYOND!“

“Was on my bucket list to visit in NOLA great views in a relaxed atmosphere. We were as soon as it opened but as the afternoon wore on it was getting busy. The bartenders were great and the drinks were excellent. Definitely recommend a visit here.“

“Best overall food experience ever! Every course was meticulously prepared and described perfectly so we could know exactly what we were tasting in every bite. the wine pairings were absolute perfection. Superb chefs, and the entire staff was friendly and professional. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Have been here a few times. Despite being really close to the expressway, it's fairly quiet and they've put a lot of work into creating a sleek and posh vibe inside the bar. The wine list is extensive--perhaps one of the best in the city. They offer a decent list of wines by the glass daily. I haven't been there for any of the happy hour deals or food pop-ups yet. Hopefully someday. As someone who grew up around Northern California wine country and has lived in other countries that produce world-class wines (France, Hungary), it's great to see so many types of wine in one place. However, I've found the service average at best--not particularly welcoming--which is odd in New Orleans. There is just a smidge of condescension, which doesn't bother me, but I do sense it. I guess this is why people who like wine sometimes get labeled wine snobs. The bathroom area is really cute, and I heard some pretty good minimalist type electronic music being spun by a DJ one night. It would also be great if they featured some Hungarian wine, which is very well-known in Europe (in fact, there is a natural wine phenomenon going on there currently) but very slept on outside of it.“

“Amazing wine bar where you serve yourself! No more waiting in line for the bartender to notice you! Please check this place out for good wine, beer, mixed drinks, and friendly staff! Also amazing daily pop ups from local chefs are always a plus!“

“I LOVE this place. The employees are fantastic, the ambience is wonderful, and the wine picks are amazing. There’s always someone to help you pick out what fits your taste, and BONUS! There are bottles to buy & take home for yourself or gifts. Amazing place and go happy to have it here in Algiers Point!!!!“

“We came here for happy hour (4-6) for half off all bottles of wine and half off the mussels and fries! Both were excellent and great portions! Our server Sara was super nice and helpful, she gave us a lot of recs and talked through all of the wines with us. We sat outside on the front patio and it was just so lovely, busy but not too packed. Overall def recommend and will come back!“

“I was visiting New Orleans for 6 weeks and was so happy to have Swirl next door! Such a great, neighborhood wine shop with a nice, affordable selection, great staff, and a comfortable atmosphere. My dog even loved visiting (they have dog treats behind the bar)!“

“Bayou wine is a staple and my friend groups hang out rotation. It's always so chill even when there's a crowd. How enjoyable it is to be out in the fresh air courtyard during the day or later evening, sipping my wine or frosè under the twinkle string lights. I especially enjoy visiting during crawfish season. The crawfish is always so good! On a nice weather day, it's really hard to beat the vibes at Bayou Wine. Other food items I enjoy is the mussels & garlic parm fries, boudin balls and fish and chips. I plan to get a charcuterie board next time I visit (after the crawfish). Parking can be frustrating in this area and the streets are pretty terrible so just be conscious of that. There is a parking lot across from Bayou wine- it's usually packed.“

“Staying nearby and drove by a few times and saw it was always busy. Walked up for an early dinner and couldn’t have been more impressed. Great people, great atmosphere and unbelievably delicious food made with fresh ingredients. Also found everything reasonably priced. Very happy that we trusted in our rule of eating where the locals go. How have they not been featured on the Food Network???“

“My favorite cafe in mid city! I love how everything here is plant based. Food and drinks are delicious!! I recommend the avocado toast and waffles. Beautiful indoor and outdoor space. 10/10. kid and pet friendly. Lovely wine selection to buy as well!“

“Had an amazing date night here with my husband! The server was so kind and we ended up speaking with the table next to us who were in from out of town as well. Just the best kind of place for mingling and eating. The steak was just delicious with that bone marrow on the plate. The duck three ways was just perfect ?“

“Fantastic wine in a self serve environment with great small plates of food and charcuterie boards! The atmosphere is calm and laid back. The maps on the wall point out the wine regions covered; for example, France, Spain, Italy, and the USA to name a few. Use your card you receive upon entering to dispense a 1oz, 2oz, or 4oz pour of each one you select. Present the card pay at the register and there is a log of all your wines along with the amounts!“

“Our first stop in the French Quarter this place is tucked away on one of the side streets. There's a nice outdoor area and a very cool air conditioned seating area inside with lots of couches and chairs to hang out at.Mostly wine, sparkling wine, and various cocktails. Everything was priced reasonably for a wine bar.There are lots of puppets and classic NOLA trinkets and artifacts to look at here as well. If your looking for something more casual near bourbon to hand out and escape the crowds this is a good stop.“

“Even though I'm a long-time resident of the city, this was my first time to the hotel. Came to enjoy a Friday afternoon brunch with live music. The menu choices were unique and delicious. The servers and hosts, and managers are very welcoming. Plan to return to enjoy a stay-cation in my city.“

“Oak seemed to me as more a wine and cocktail bar that serves food than a restaurant. The food is good it just doesn’t seem to be the main focus, primarily small plates. Service was friendly and prompt. The live entertainment was was very good without being overwhelming. Overall a nice place to spend some time.Vegetarian options: Some non-meat dishesKid-friendliness: An adult environmentParking: On street parking in the area and a paid lot about a block awayWheelchair accessibility: Somewhat accessibleDietary restrictions: Staff will work with restrictions you make them aware of“

“This was a total hidden gem right above the bustling music halls of Frenchman street! The food was absolutely amazing. The charbroiled oysters, lamb lollipops, and octopus were perfection. With all the big name restaurants we visited in New Orleans, this was our favorite meal of the trip. Ambience was nice and quiet and the wines were awesome. You won't regret giving this place a try!“

“Been there 2x now and both visits were excellent..The Barthenders are very friendly and make some tasty drinks! The sirloin burgers were fantastic and definitely get the fries...should be called Gourmet Fries! Last but not least is the charming dimly lit atmosphere...Very inviting and friendly.We look forward to our next visit ⚜️⚜️⚜️“

“Although they were short staffed, the server was wonderful and the pizza was delicious. I recommend the thin crust. Some family members raved about the Cajun Shrimp pizza. I’d have given 5 stars except the restaurant was not very wheelchair accessible. I might have made it over the threshold. But, I wasn’t sure and didn’t want to get thrown out of my chair. So, we ate outside. The worst part was that the bathroom had a large concrete curb you had to step up on. There was no option for me.“

“Food is varied depending on which pop up is housed. The atmosphere is always great. The bar is spacious with plenty of bartenders. Beer selection is big here, and Wrong Iron also has some specialty beers and wine. The seating is plenty inside and outside. You can reserve sections for a private event. This bar is on the Lafitte Greenway and has a nice view. Plenty of televisions for viewing.“

“We hosted our wedding of roughly 60 guests at Barrilleaux's, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. Our guests are still raving about all of the amazing food. It is a beautiful indoor setting, with plenty of tables for guests to mingle outside. At first, we were a bit worried that the space might be too small, but we had a six-piece band, and ice cream sundae bar, and still more than plenty of room to dance, for guests to hang out at their tables, and to walk around and mingle. We found out the day of the wedding that one of our guests was vegan. When we asked the chef if there were any vegan options on the buffet that we had planned, he went out of his way to make her an entire beautiful, custom vegan dinner. We thought this was absolutely above and beyond and we are so thankful to the chef! Brittani was wonderful to work with throughout the planning process, and Patsy was incredible on the day of. The team is super accommodating, friendly, and truly made it the best day ever.“

“The food was very thoughtful with great flavors. Portion sizes were perfect. Service was good even though it was brought to our attention they were understaffed and not expecting a "big rush" in the last hour of service. Overall, it was a great experience, and would go back for sure.“

“Friendly and attentive staff starting with the security officer that helped us park and helped me push wheelchair through kitchen to the dining room. Excellent Rye Manhattan and bread and butter. Excellent portion of BBQ shrimp and veal parm but the Bread Pudding was beyond belief!! Plenty of it to share but you won't want to!Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible entrance is back door and kinda steep dip for power chair. Go through kitchen to front desk. No designated handicap parking in lot or street but security officer can help.“

“Great atmosphere but the DJ wasn’t that great.Drinks were strong and the people were all having a good time.I stayed because it was comfortable. I like places that offer seating that are not designated to bottle service!!Thanks for thinking about ladies in heals“

“This place is amazing!! Chad and the staff are exceptional at creating a welcoming experience. Drinks are amazing. Food is superb. Prices are a steal. Definitely stop by before dinners reservations at Antoine's or just for fun! Highly recommended ?“

“Cynthia and Jade keep this place going! Highly recommend sitting in their areas.Friendly yet sarcastic, professional yet personable…...Just the way I like it! ??Vegetarian options: Tomato BruschettaBuratta BowlCheese BoardsImpossible Empanadas**********Avocado ToastAvocado SaladTomato Mozzarella Pizza“

“We strolled in here after a Mardi Gras parade, and were able to order from their full menu at around 10 PM. We were a little worried, because there weren’t many staff members, but the food came out quickly, and was totally delicious! Exceeded expectations!“

“This is a late night place, but we went after Jazzfest for a relaxed meal. We arrived early with 10 people and they were gracious (the place does not fill up early). The chef came out to deliver our tasting boards and was so excited to share the beautiful creation. We also had sandwiches and salads and great drinks. Service was nice and the food was a perfect light dinner after the fest.“
