    Alexandre Burgaud Brouilly Rouge red wine with charcuterie board
    Brian T.

    I can't believe it has taken me this long to finally discover 13 Celsius! Where has this been all my life!? Am I just experiencing retroactive FOMO??? We came in as an impromptu visit after an earlier event and figured we'd just stop in for a glass of wine or so. Upon walking in, the place is super cute with dim lighting and was quite crowded on a Thursday night. We didn't immediately find available seating, but after a couple minutes, a table opened up and we sat there. Our primary server was Grayson, who was super knowledgeable about the wine list. Other servers tended to us throughout the night, and all were equally as knowledgeable about the menu offerings. At the time we went, they were featuring various wines from Beaujolais. We ended up trying one of these, the Alexandre Burgaud Brouilly Rouge, which was a full-bodied red. This was a great recommendation, and I will say that we didn't conclude the visit on only one of these bottles... Based on Grayson's food recommendations, we ended up ordering the Mortadella panini and a combination charcuterie board. The Mortadella panini was unique but good - tomato, mortadella, provolone, and mustard all served on a pretzel bun. Probably not my dish of choice alongside wine, however I did really like the charcuterie board. We asked them to surprise us on the cheese and meat, and they really came through. The prosciutto was tasty and the cheese (can't remember which one) had a peppery flavor to it, which paired well with our red wine. The overall clientele vibe seemed like a range of date nights, girls nights, first dates, and solo drinkers. I love the diversity! We ended up making friends with the table next to us and eventually merged tables to make this a fun group date night. Definitely a highlight of the visit. We will definitely be back sooner than later. This is a cute neighborhood bar that I look forward to returning myself and brining out-of-town guests to come experience. They also have a dog-friendly patio - something to keep in mind whenever the day calls for drinking some wine in nice outdoor weather!

    If you're looking for a solid date night spot, and you're a fan of wine you should definitely consider swinging by 13 Celsius. Tucked away just outside of the heart of Midtown, in what feels more like a townhouse residential area, sits one of the best wine bars you'll find in Houston From the outside the bar looks relatively small, but as you walk in the bar is deceptively spacious. There is one of the smallest parking lots in the back, but I wouldn't hold your breath on snagging a spot there. As mentioned, this is more or less a residential area, and you will mostly likely have to find trees parking. Make sure you double check for "no parking" signs. Midtown is notorious for towing cars The interior is nicely decorated and intimately lit. You can find seating both inside and out, and there is a long bar you can sit at The menu offers wines from all over the world, and you can order by the bottle, glass, half glass, and you can also taste. There are a variety of delicious small plates and other snacks to order The staff was exceptional. A couple individuals took our typical wine preferences and was able to find similar wines that we would enjoy. They could explain why we would enjoy, and they allowed us to taste prior to ordering a full glass. Another served us our small plates and explained the dish and even the history of sourcing some of the dish components and why It is incredibly easy to get lost in conversation and unwind at this bar. For what it is, I also found the bar relatively affordable. And for anyone wondering about the name, 13 Celsius refers to the optimal temperature for storing and maturing wines Some tips: Again, ask the staff what they would recommend and let them take you on a journey of exploration. And please, check the "parking signs" Cheers!

    parking is very hard to find, wish they had an alternative parking lot for people because the space is tiny. the outdoors had a very nice ambiance during the cooler parts of houston. the wine tasted great and so did the dessert. the sandwich was okay but i was happy that they were able to make it dairy free. the service was attentive. overall a great experience.

    STUNNING wine and small bites bar in Midtown. I'm visiting from the Bay Area on a work trip and the vibe and selection of wines blew me away! I got a glass of the orange and the pretzel and both were fantastic. Service was quick and friendly. Would totally recommend if you're in the area!

    really sweet server made sure to check on us at just the right time. Had wonderful wine suggestions. Ambience was very calm and I got to sit on the couch with the table, which is hard to get a seat in the evening but luckily I was there around three or 4 PM. very clean. parking is pretty simple. I forgot I used to come here all the time.

    A friend came into town during the Super Bowl and as neither of us are big sports fans, we decided to try out this wine bar instead of facing the sports madness. When we arrived, I quickly noticed they have a small but cute little area to sit out front for when the weather is nice and then a nice bar area with lounge seating inside. There is also another indoor/ outdoor patio area towards the back but I didn't notice that until making my way to the restroom. Outside of the actual bar area, the place is a bit dated and could use some updates (especially the ceiling which just looks like it's falling apart). The wine list was extensive and they had a number of varietals that I'd never tried before which was a plus The gentleman working was happy to answer all of my questions and allowed me to try the wines before making my decision which was appreciated. I settled on a red from Greece and it was fantastic. The food we ordered was also delicious and I'd absolutely order it again ... and try more items. All in all, this was a cute spot that I'd visit again BUT because of the ceiling and rustic vibe, I have noted I have to be aware of which guests is bring with.

    I came here on a solo date and had a time! Was literally looking for something that was worthy of the look I had on and I came across this wine bar. On a Saturday night they were packed! I was solo, so I went straight to the bar to get a seat, but it didn't seem like there was much of a wait either. Immediately I loved the vibe. All the servers were so cool and I loved how close they seemed with each other too! Even the other customers were super friendly - I ended up in a lot of cool conversations! Into the plot, the food (or wine in this case)! I told my server I was trying to graduate from Stella Rosa and moscato and he was able to create a lovely mini wine tasting for me. They were so delicious and he was so knowledgeable about literally everything so that was super helpful. I also ordered a mini charcuterie board and I love how you can customize either the size or the flavors to fit your taste! Moral of the story, I'll definitely be back!

    Always love going here. Great wine selection and the servers are good at giving recommendations if you have a specific vibe in mind. The small combination plate of two cheeses and two salamis is really good - their almonds, jam, and baguette a nice compliment to the wine. We didn't get the s'mores this time but I have in the past and it's a unique and delicious experiences. Overall ambience makes for a cozy date night, or a good time drinking wine with friends!

    Nice wine bar. Hidden gem. I won't lie and tell you I remember what red wine we ordered that night but was a great red wine recommendation by our server. He was well versed and was able to answer questions we had. The highlight of the night was the smores board. It was so cute being yo make our own smores. Very nostalgic (was worried I was gonna catch something on fire but thank God I didn't !) Stop by if you're ever in the area.

    S'mores & Cabernet
    Taylor S.

    I love 13 Celsius. The wine is pretty pricey but sometimes ambiance is just worth it. Here you can see the real reason I come here... the s'mores! Haha. Their s'mores are EXCELLENT. The highest quality of s'mores you can find, no joke. And you can make them at your table! You really can't beat that. Back to wine. The wine is really good! I had a Cabernet that I let the server surprise me with based on description and he hit it right on the nail. Love this place. Highly recommend for a date!

    My wife and I came by while we were waiting for an afternoon event in the Museum District. They have a great selection of wines to try by the glass. The Sommelierwas very knowledgeable and was able to find us several wines we enjoyed after telling him what we liked. We will definitely keep this place in mind next time we are in the area.

    No complaints on my girls night out! Great service, cozy ambiance, & a wonderful selection.

    I always want to come here when it gets chilly out because of their amazing S'mores Board! I love coming here, getting a bottle of wine and talking with friends. Very cozy vibes inside and at the outside little courtyard. Staff is very knowledgeable on wine selections and they are extremely attentive. 10/10 always.

First, we got there pretty early for our reservation. We sat almost immediately upon check in. Our waiter was in training but did a really good job. Ordered a whiskey sour. Was seated at the bar so I got to watch it be made. The bartender- man that guy never stopped. He was organized and just did his thing. So many pretty drinks were made while I was there watching. The pink one, whatever it was, was really pretty! On to the food. We got two apps, two meals, and two desserts. Husband ordered the Brussels, Steak Frites, and the Devil's Affogato. I got the Bacon covered Dates, the Pizza, and the Sticky Toffee Cake. The Brussels were good - husband liked them more than me. They were good. Had cashews in them. Little spicy. The bacon covered dates. Think this was my favorite bite. Sweet, salty, creamy. Came we three & I had two. The pizza was sweet and salty as well. The crust was so good and fresh. The arugula set it off so well. Def a buy again! The Steak Frites was so good. The chimichurri sauce was perfect. Just the right mount of citrus. Steak was tender and the fries seasoned well. The desserts - don't skip them! The Devils Affogato we had the first time we ate at Sixty Vines. Had to have it again. If you like coffee, chocolate and vanilla ice cream just get it.

Our server greeted us quickly, provided amazing service, and gave us plenty of time to decide what we wanted without feeling rushed. I ordered the braised pork pasta, and it was pretty good overall.

My sister ordered the steak frites, but unfortunately her steak was cooked well done instead of the medium well she requested, which made it difficult for her to eat. Overall, it was a decent experience. While there were a few things that could have been better, the service and atmosphere stood out, and I'd be willing to give this place another chance in the future.

I experienced this side of the business during the early phase of the Covid pandemic back in 2020. At the time, during lockdown, going to a wine bar or wine shop just wasn't top of mind. However, I had researched a Cabernet Franc (red wine) called Nicolas Reau Enlèvement Demandé Anjou [Vintage year: 2017]. Reau is kind of a rebel working in the Loire Valley of France who is interested in producing organic, biodynamic wines that are essentially closer to nature and processed differently--more artisanal, so to speak. I read about this wine and wanted to find a bottle locally, which wasn't an easy task as I recall. This is where Vinology comes in. I'm not much of a wine drinker, but had to have a bottle of this excellent wine. Like many people, I preferred to stay indoors during the early part of the pandemic and was kind of nervous about going out. When I called Vinology, I expressed my dilemma, and the guy on the other end of the phone came up with a great solution. He offered to deliver the bottle of wine I purchased to my address. I actually met him at the edge of the garage entrance to where I live. This was great, exceptional above and beyond service. I will always treasure and remember Vinology and plan to support the business more in the future. Hats off to the folks who own and run this wine establishment.

I've had my fair share of Paulie's but never had the chance to come to Camerata...until now. I had been missing out for so long! We journeyed from white to red wines throughout the night. We started out with the Babylonstoren, a chenin blanc from South Africa. We then moved into pink (rose) with the Ana Beirut - a blend of cab sauv, syrah, and tempranillo grapes with a bit of skin contact to give the wine the pink color. Lastly we ordered the Guelbenzu - a red blend of tempranillo, cab sauv, syrah, and graciano. This full-bodied red was the absolute fan favorite of the table. Food options are on the light side: meat & cheese boards, bread, and small bites. We started out with the warm bread - while it's normally served with butter, there's an option to switch that out with olive oil & herbs which is what we did. We then went for the meat & cheese platter. We couldn't decide on which meats or cheeses, so we did the option of ordering all 8! This came with 4 delicious meats and 4 tasty cheeses (from Houston Dairymaids), also with crispy fava beans, olives, pickles, and bread. This was a good amount for our group of 4 to share. Elena was our server and she was absolutely OUTSTANDING. She vibed with us throughout the night and made sure that we were well-taken care of. I loved her energy along with her vast knowledge of wines. We got plenty of good recommendations from her during our time there. I'm super sad that Houston will be losing this gem permanently at the end of the year (and even more sad that I only discovered it in the last month of its existence).

It's part of the Paulie's Restaurant brands, but completely separate from the restaurant from what I could tell. Parking is a bit difficult, but after a bit of circling we were able to find a spot and make our way in what looked like the back entrance. It was very low key, and despite the sign, the door seemed almost hidden in that back little corner. The staff seemed to have a bit of a hipster vibe-- not unexpected given the Montrose area-- but were very friendly. They offered suggestions, but let us go with what we wanted to try. There's a food menu along with the drinks, but we were heading to the restaurant next door, so we passed on grabbing food. We ended up going with a couple of glasses of red and a couple of the specialty chocolates. My wife loved her salted caramel chocolate. I enjoyed my peppermint chocolate. For the glasses of wine, I've got better at home for bottles the same price as those glasses. My wife really enjoyed the vibe, but even if this place wasn't about to close down, I'm not sure I'd be coming back here often. It's just too hard to park.

This shop differentiates itself from others in that they sell natural wines - organic and no additives or preservatives.

It's a converted house, and you can choose your seating in the various "common areas" of the house or the patio. The lighting is dark and intimate and they even have a disco ball spinning to some good tunes! We met owner Steve who was super welcoming - he and the entire staff at Light Years is super knowledgeable on their wines and are happy to make recommendations based on your preferences (and something that doesn't break the bank!). We were recommended a white pinot noir (crazy right?) for our first bottle, which was something unique and fun to try. While they did not have a chilled bottle available, they chilled a bottle off the shelf for us, but this did take about 15 minutes before we were served the wine. For our next bottle, we got a pinot noir - it was light and crisp, something I am not as used to in reds being primarily a cab sauv drinker myself. Our group really liked it and we didn't have any trouble killing the bottle.
