Great price point for buying bottles. I still think a 10 dollar corkage fee for a bottle you've just bought at the spot is too high, but still lower than Celladora where it's $15 -- which is too much. Food is mostly small bites which is fine. Everything we've tried was good. I love how large the outdoor area is, but I think they could use a redesign out there. The bar from the previous restaurant is still in the middle of the space and takes up too much room. Service is pretty kind and helpful if you need a recommendation. Definitely happy to have another option for outdoor seating in Richmond because we are severely lacking! read more

Came here to catch up with a friend and we were some of the first few guests as Jardin just opened at the beginning of the year (2022). It apparently used to be a club catered to the undergrad population but now has transformed into this indoor/outdoor wine bar space. The wines can be ordered by the glass or bottle and they offer a diverse food menu as well. The only issue we had was it was FREEZING in January when we went and there were only 4 heat lamps outside on the patio, though it probably needed 6-8 given the square footage. We managed, but almost did not! Will definitely return. read more

3.5 stars. It's like a coffee shop, but with wine. Nothing spectacular. They have very limited indoor seating with only a couple barstools and standing room only. They do have a nice outdoor patio that will sure be popular once the weather gets warmer. Most of the wines they offer are of a very good variety including wines from Italy, Spain, etc. They don't tell you until you get to the front, but there is a $10 "cork fee" added on along with a "bottle/glass tax" when you check out. read more

Nice boutique space price is ok, the seating out side was ok other than the field mice running around probably won't be going back after that site. Wife was not happy. read more

I went here a couple of weeks ago, and they were so new that they didn't have Yelp yet! But I had heard about them via several Insta sites I follow, so I was excited to check them out. This is a super cute space, and I loved walking down a few steps to get to the wine bar. It feels extra-cozy. They also have a great outdoor space that will be super nice when it warms up a bit, although they do have heaters out there for those who want to brave the cold. The wait staff was super helpful with making recommendations about types of wine to try, and they had a lot of great choices. I had a red akin to a Pinot noir, and it was delicious. I didn't have any food, but their charcuterie boards looked AMAZING. I'm definitely trying that the next time I go. read more

I have attended two wine tastings here this year and my experience was lackluster with both. Primarily, it was because I felt a bit ripped off. I have been to many wine tastings at various wineries and vineyards all over Virginia as well as all over the country. I would say I know what to expect from a wine tasting. I'd like to have enough wine to really get a good gauge of the flavor and taste to see if it's something I'd like a full glass of or even a bottle. At Jardin, the wine tastings costs $20 pp plus tax. The Camporeale Sicilian Wine Tasting consisted of tasting 4 different wines. We were seated inside, which was tight, but it was sort of misty/rainy out so they decided to squeeze us all in there. The pours were literally a splash more than what I'd get for free at a Total Wine tasting. I'm saying, I didn't get enough taste of the wines to make me want to stay and have more and also, it irked me that I could have bought two bottles of the wines were tasting for what I paid for a taste of four wines that accumulated to maybe one glass of wine. Not the best value and none of these wines were expensive varietals to rationalize the stingy pours. I gave them two tries and we decided we won't return. read more

I have been to Jardin twice and have enjoyed both visits. Opened by the owners of Grisette, an incredible French restaurant in Church Hill, Jardin has the same welcoming vibes and impressive wine list. There is bar seating inside and ample patio seating with heaters outside. When you purchase a bottle, you can pay a corkage fee to enjoy it there, or buy a couple bottles to take home! If you don't want to purchase a bottle, you can also order wine by the glass. There are snacks to enjoy as well, including sandwiches, charcuterie, and soups. All of the food I have tasted has been delicious. The staff is helpful and will offer suggestions if you are unsure on what bottle to buy. I have not had a bad glass of wine yet! read more

Excellent dining experience. Enjoyed the charcuterie and the ambiance of the patio. Extensive wine selection. We will definitely go again. read more

We had a great experience at Jardin. The wine was a little pricey but with a healthy pour. We had delicious charcuterie and the bread was just baked. The service was on point! The teamwork of the staff was impressive. We will definitely go back for the meatball sandwich. read more

First time coming to Jardin and you wait in a line to order but there was no menu to browse until you get to order- the menu online was not the same as at the bar. The wines were great and the person ringing me up knew about them which was nice. I ordered a $6 manchego and $6.5 meat which comes with bread and crackers, as well as some slivers of fish with oil ($14). Was unsure why it took about an hour to get the one slice of manchego, four slices of meat, smear of spicy mustard, smear or jam, and some pickled onions. Thankfully I am not a fast drinker. I work at a winery where we reheat frozen baguettes for 9 minutes and it takes one minute to cut and we will sell a block of manchego for $10, a pack of 20 slices salami for $10, and a baguette for $8. They come to you within at least 10 minutes. This was not a good use of time or money. I ended up going home and opening a bottle of wine and making my own cheese plate with the same amenities within 5 minutes. read more

Beware the price tag! The vibes are great, but they will catch you with a slick trick. They charge you $10 extra dollars to uncork the wine bottle you already bought from them. They have a little discreet sign that says this but if you are not paying attention it will catch you off guard. Also, don't stay on the carpet when you are drinking wine. The manager will come by and tell you to "GET OFF" as if you didn't belong there. read more

Excellent local wine bar with outdoor seating. The wine shop organizes its wines in an unpretentious fashion, encouraging you to buy, open, and enjoy on its outside patio. Nicely priced so the $10 corkage fee seems absolutely reasonable. Like its mothership, Grisette, Jardin boasts a beautiful cheese/charcuterie plate. Order one with your bottle (which can come pre-chilled to make a July afternoon more enjoyable) and select a table in the shade under a ceiling fan. What a great way to spend an afternoon! read more

Jardin - Chef's choice charcuterie plate to accompany a chilled Primitivo from Puglia. Lovely. - Wine Bars Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

My girlfriend and I stumbled across Jardín last weekend while visiting Boho-To-Go and had a terrific time. Jardín has one of the best patios in The Fan and an amazing wine selection to enjoy either in their space or to take home. Their friendly, knowledgeable staff gave us great suggestions on what to drink and they were certainly all on point. This is our new go-to spot for the warm months ahead! read more

Great vibes, knowledgeable staff, kickass options. Love the way the wines are sorted by "vibe" (for the Office lovers, "Andrew Bernard's Garden Party") rather than stuffy designations. Makes it accessible for newbies. Yeah, there's a $10 corkage fee for popping bottles in house instead of taking out....but it's literally a wine bar, what do you expect? Get a glass instead or take your bottle to go if you don't like it. Everything's reasonably priced and there are options matter your budget. Anyways, love Jardin 10/10, favorite place to get day drunk on a patio on a gorgeous day. read more

I am so happy that something opened up in the old Baja Bean! It's the perfect location in Richmond for a wine bar/restaurant! My friends and I went to grab some wine and we really enjoyed ourselves. It was a little cold outside but they had heaters set up around the tables, so you would be comfortable. They have a great wine selection in store if you want to split a bottle with friends or options to buy bye the glass. It was a great experience and I can't wait to go back when it's a bit warmer out! read more

I was excited to try Jardin for lunch last Friday, but it was a huge disappointment. There was nobody in the place when we arrived. We ordered our sandwiches from the not very appealing menu and headed outside. It was a lovely day to enjoy the patio which, unfortunately, has not much ambiance. We waited 40 minutes for our orders - 2 small pressed focaccia sandwiches with nothing else on the plate. Not particularly appealing, they didn't taste much better. Mine was sopressata and ham drowned in some kind of mayonaise sauce. My partner's tasted better - serrano ham and cheese. I thought it poor for a wine bar to serve only one rose by the glass at this time of year. And a mediocre one at that. In short, this place has medicore to poor food and is very expensive ($12 and $14 forour sandwiches). I'm afraid I won't be back. read more

Great service and atmosphere. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone for date night or if you just looking to have a relaxing day.

They have a unique selection of wine and the food we had was also delicious. They have limited indoor seating but a nice garden patio seating area. The outdoor seating could use additional heat lamps in the colder months (there were only 4 for quite a large space). Our main dislike was the $10 corkage fee on bottles that you purchase from them, which, at least in our last experience, is relatively uncommon for a wine bar or winery to charge on their own wine offerings. read more

Ok, how the hell is this place still open??? So uhm, not much upgraded from Baja Bean, in fact the outside patio is exactly the same. It seems really nice at first, while the staff gives you recommendations for a bottle of wine to choose from their shelves...UNTIL...bang, a bottle marked $25 on the shelf miraculously becomes $40 at the register. That's right...there is zero wait staff and you have to order everything on your own at a register at the bar, BUT they then STILL have the audacity to charge you at $10 "uncorking" fee and a city tax on top of that. I have never been charged an uncorking fee except at super fancy restaurants, which Jardin is certainly not. If they persist in this it should be advertised everywhere, so patrons to do not feel awkward and pressured into their purchase when they get surprised at the register (...again zero wait staff). Also $32 for the smallest and most underwhelming charcuterie board I have ever seen! Yikes! I think the only people going here are the ones who don't know about these ridiculous things yet, like me. I know now that I have learned the hard way, I will never be back. read more

Four of us each enjoyed a glass of wine before walking elsewhere for dinner. Was a bit confusing about where to enter (I went in the wrong way both on the outside and to order downstairs), but all went well and weather was perfect on Wed 4/27 to enjoy the street level outside patio. The place got a lot busier as we were departing but glad to have had the opportunity to enjoy the location, wine and atmosphere! read more
