Always have a good experience coming here. Happy Hour is a great deal, especially for a bottle of wine. They also expanded their menu so more food options. read more

Citizen Vine is even better than before! They moved to a larger spot in the same center and have so much more room for more people to enjoy the yummy food and wine! Melanie and Izzie are the best servers... will take great care of you... and dude - the food. Paul is a foodie who loves wine... the perfect combination! read more

Citizen Vine - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lincoln, California

The menu was excellent with an amazing wine list. The employees had smiles and joy in serving the customers. I will have go back soon.

I've been here a few times now. The wine selection if pretty good and the food is always really tasty. We sat outside on the patio this last time and there were a lot of little bugs and my friend and I both ended up with bugs inside of our drinks. I think next time, we'll probably sit inside! But otherwise, I'd definitely come back again and recommend it for a nice glass of wine with a friend or date. read more

Our experience at Citizen Vine was AWESOME! Special thanks to Melanie and Paul for making our time there the best. Hats off to the chef for preparing some delicious tapas and the staff for taking great care of all the customers. Highly recommend you try it out and become a Citizen member. read more

Food was very delicious. Excellent customer service. Wine is fabulous. Great place to sit back, sip and unwind.

The two of us sat on the patio a few days after restaurants opened up again. The staff is very nice - could not ask for better service. We sat at a round table for two on the patio. It seems the chairs are a bit too high for the table. Felt somewhat uncomfortable. We ordered a nice bottle of Cabernet. The price was decent. For food, we ordered a chopped salad and a margarita pizza to share. The food was disappointing. The pizza was heavily covered with a very sweet balsamic glaze. It was over powering. The pizza crust was the same as you would get on a grocery store frozen pizza. Yuck. The salad was ok. The chunks of chopped ham (or whatever that was) was not good, but the dressing and Parmesan was very nice. Again, the staff and service were great. Maybe next time I'll order a cheese board to play it safe. read more

I love both locations. I have a great experience every time! Service is always friendly and the food, particularly the cheese board, is fantastic. They have this garlic cottage cheese dip that they need to sell on its own, it is so good! Definitely my favorite wine bar and place to just relax with a nice glass of wine or champagne. read more

Love this pace! Up the street from my house and everyone is so nice. The food and wine are on point. The cheese board is on point. It's all on point! If I could go every day I would. I absolutely love the atmosphere... read more

Best tapas around - excellent wine selections. Located in "restaurant central", in Lincoln (Twelve Bridges @ Joiner)

First timers here and we were a group of 6. Made reservations and there's only one spot that can accommodate that many peeps by the front door. Basically, 3 love seats and a coffee table in the middle. Place is rather small, but we were all thoroughly impressed with the tapas and wine selection. I will say that the Brussel sprout flatbread was off the hook. However, picture makes it look bigger than it is. It was on a tortilla I believe. We had the meatballs, pesto flatbread, pork tacos, chicken tacos, ahi crisps, sourdough skillet type dish, cheesecake, and the lava cake. Order lots as the food comes out in waves. Perfect size plates for sharing. Customer service from Melody (I think) was top notch. Super knowledgeable on everything on the menu. Most definitely will be coming back soon. Cheers! read more

This was our first time at a "tapas bar", and it was lovely! Great ambience, the food we tried was good; but don't expect a full size entree! These are tapas, or small plates, after all. Great wine selection; the happy hour(tues-sat 4-6) prices are $6 for a select glasses of wine, and $6 for select tapas.. so you don't need to worry if you're on a budget! Recommended for winos.. they have beer as well so don't worry if you're drug here by winos! read more

Food was always amazing but I feel like they must have new staff because it's just not quite the same.

A truly wonderful find! My husband and I were in Lincoln and Yelped local restaurants. Fortunately for us, Citizen Vine was highly rated and 2 minutes away. Plus, Tapas sounded very interesting . We ordered 3 Tapas to share- perfect amount of food. The ahi was superb- with unique light sauces, the mac and cheese was to die for, and flat bread margarita- perfection. (We ordered ala carte, but you can have dinner for 2, including wine and dessert for $45.00). There is no doubt, if you are a wine connoisseur AND a foodie--GO FOR IT. They also have a location in Loomis and invite people to taste and critique local wines to add to the menu. Plus, our waitress was attentive and helpful. Her attitude was such that we thought she was the owner. Not so-she was simply passionate about her job. Can't wait to take out of town guests read more

Favorite place hands down-Wine, Beer, food, desserts, people, service, atmosphere. Location-Win-Win all the way around! Servers give extra attention to everyone so relax and enjoy your evening at Citizen-We love coming here. It's definitely our go to spot to eat light or as much of the variety as you want. Taco Tuesday! Wednesday Wine dinners-so worth it-Great New location too! Outside patio coming soon! Next to Zakuro's Thank you for being in our community! read more

Went there last night...Tuesday...no more Taco Tuesday...too bad. That was a real plus for Lincoln. Okay...that being said, I ordered the "NEW" Chicken and Bacon Taco...very disappointing. It was tasty, but you get 2 4" [yes 4 inch] round tacos and some chips and dip for $11.00. The tacos were tiny, I mean really tiny and I found 3 slim pieces of chicken, a very small amount of what I believe was avocado and a scant of bacon. Yes I know this is a tapas bar, small plates, but this is ridiculous, $11.00 for that...WOW. And it really was not that good. The wine was okay, another $11.00 for a half a glass of wine. You know, at least when they had Taco Tuesday, you felt like you had dinner when you left, but not last night. Too bad Taco Tuesday is no longer with us. For the price for what I got, I will not be back. The service was okay, had to wait a good 10 minutes for the waitress to come to the table to give us a menu and utensils/napkins. There were three waitresses serving, however, they were more busy talking among themselves then to wait on the tables...O' Well, She smiled and was cordial and friendly when she finally made it over to us. It was rather interesting, the place was practically empty, there were about 4 people at the bar and two tables with 2 or 3 people at each [not including our table of 2]. I was really surprised, I can remember when we use to have to wait for a table, not any more...guess that tells you something. read more

We love this place and visit whenever possible. It's local and the owner and staff are super nice! We enjoy the wine and appetizer option on the menu for just about $50.00 for two. Fun place! read more

The owner & staff are so friendly and it's quite honestly our favorite local dining experience for casual to dressy~they accommodate any occasion just call ahead first I'm SO thrilled this is in our neighborhood! Love it, cheers!! read more

This place is very nice but small. It was packed on a tuesday for happy hour. Granted it was all retired people but still. The wine selection is good. The staff didnt seem to know much about the wines besides the label but that's ok. They have alot if local wine and wine from all over. They have this sangria which is so good. The food honestly is great. The tacos are awesome. The flatbread pizza are super good. They have a cheese and meat platter which is good but too expensive. $23 is way to much when u only get to pick 3 cheeses and meats. But very hood place and I will be going back. read more

Perfect happy hour food and prices. Very friendly staff. Will definitely keep it on my list of favorites.

AMAZING! Small, and sometimes can get pretty busy, but well worth the wait! The food is delicious... You must try the chipotle Mac & Cheese! They also have a wonderful Red, White, and Blue champagne flight. The blueberry infused champagne is my favorite! read more

Citizen Vine - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lincoln, California

Honestly wasn't the best. My girlfriend and I were super disappointed. The portions were tiny. I'm not for massive portions but I found the pretzel to be tiny, along with the flatbread. You spend $16 on flatbread you expect it to be the equivalent of a small pizza... it was tiny. For some reason, outside area was not open and one group had about 15 people in the main center area and they were SO loud. I've worked in restaurants for a decade, music helps drown out overly loud people. My girlfriend and I couldn't hear ourselves talk that group was so loud and while there was a little bit of music, you could hardly hear... up the music volume at least moderately to drown out insanely loud people. Service was super average. No one asked if we wanted more wine. I had to ask for a box and the check because no one asked if we wanted more wine. We would've said no because the group was annoyingly loud but the fact we didn't get an offer... we immediately left to another place to enjoy more wine in a quieter setting. I've been to this place in the past... I even had a bday at your place, but this experience was just not worth doing again honestly, and I live right down the road. I'll be going to local wineries for my wine as opposed to going back to you guys. Failed on almost every level for us." read more

This is the second time we've come here. The charcuterie board is AMAZING and the beignets are heavenly. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for good atmosphere, good wine, great food and excellent service! read more

I cannot believe I waited this long to check out Citizen Vine! The food tasted great- we order the asian plum meatballs, the chicken tacos and the margherita flatbread. The white wine sangria with sparkling blueberry sparkling wine was delicious! Paul has an amazing palate and he interacts with all the patrons to make sure they are doing well and the live music makes this place a nice place to relax without feeling rushed. You have to support this local business and you won't be disappointed. This is definitely a place to enjoy after a busy workweek! We will be coming by more for sure! Thank you!! read more

Citizen Vine - Yummy pazookie dessert! Definitely leave room for it! - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lincoln, California

Great atmosphere, excellent employees and fantastic food. It's rather difficult to ask for anything more. Looking forward to the expansion!

Amazing wine bar!!! My friend was in town and we thought wine and tapas sounded like a great idea. They were super busy, but Isabella was an amazing server and practically by herself. She worked so hard but made sure to take care of everyone with a smile on her face. The red wine flight was delicious. We also ordered the meatballs, Mac n cheese, and chicken tacos. All of the food was incredible! Highly recommend. read more

Great atmosphere. The wife and I stopped in and were very pleased. She had a red flight and I tried some of the tap beer. They only had one beer at the time, due to goathouse being sold out, but it was good. I've had goathouse before so if they have it when you stop in I highly recommend it. They also said they are adding more tap beers very soon. My wife really enjoyed the flight. The staff and the owner Paul were very helpful for wine novices. They seemed to have a huge selection for even the most particular tastes. They also have a very unique selection of snacks and deserts. Overall I'd highly suggest you give citizen vine a try. read more

Citizen Vine is wonderful. I have had the pleasure of dining there on numerous occasions and the staff is superb. The menu offers a variety of choices for people with different tastes. It should also be noted that the management, specifically Kim, is an absolute joy with a wonderful work ethic. read more

This place has a great vibe with live music on the Saturday we went. The staff was ultra nice and the drinks and apps were delicious!

LOVE CV! Their grilled cheese Tritip sandwich is AHHHMAZING!! Service is always excellent too!

What a great addition to this area! Great wine selection with the promise of an expanding selection In the future. So many tasty Tapas options (we chose 3) that pair well with the wine flights. They have some beers on tap if you're with folks who don't necessarily want wine. Can't wait to see what this place does in the future. read more

Citizen Vine - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Lincoln, California

The drinks and food were amazing! Staff was super friendly. The only negative thing i would say is that when the bar is full there were people waiting behind us trying to rush us out the door, i got up to use the restroom (hadn't even got our check yet) and before i even stood up all the way someone was trying to pull my chair out from behind me and sit there. Maybe they need a little more seating available to avoid situations like that. read more

We love Citizen Vine! The staff always greets their guests with a smile. It's apparent they feel happy "Pouring for the People." Ambience, menu, and wine are all top notch. This is a perfect place for a date, girl's happy hour, birthday celebration, or just a stop in for a great glass of wine and an appetizer. Paul is super creative in the kitchen and he and his team have put together a fabulous menu. I recommend everything on the menu! If you haven't stopped in yet, you should...SOON! read more
