Love. Love. Love this place! Such a cute atmosphere! I love a place where you don't even need a wine list you can just describe what you like and they will give you a tasting or a glass. I'm constantly surprised by the food, loving everything I get. The falafel wrap and salad being two of my favorites but they also have a great charcuterie board! Their patio is pet friendly and they frequently have live music. Be sure stop when you are in town, you won't regret it! read more

Great food & wine! Crystal River is not into wearing masks now. We left a lot of businesses today as soon as we walked in because of this. But the owners here were welcoming, mentioned the lack of mask wearing in the area, and pointed out their large outdoor dining area. They also pointed out that Mondays are usually slow and we were dining early, 4:30. When I looked at the menu I was astounded to see Lumpia, a personal favorite. Then we looked at the wine list and found a great New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. After the greeting, discussion, menu and wine list we headed for their outdoor patio. We were not disappointed. Incredible Lumpia and delicious wine. We both chose red snapper. Delicious. One other couple came out to share the patio, plenty of distance. They loved the Lumpia as well and said the coffee was fantastic. Just 1/2 block off 19, the main route. Chose this restaurant over the others in the block, after checking each of them. read more

KC Wine Bistro - Inside. Forgot to take a shot of the patio - Wine Bars Near Me - Crystal River, Florida

Wow what an amazing dinner we had here from start to finish! Our waitress Christine went above and beyond, as did Jeff, the owner to make our dinner a memorable birthday celebration for our daughter Caroline. Everything was phenomenal; the wine, the apps and entrees and dessert. I love the Greek Influence and how they offer very fresh, made to order food. It was so nice to find a friendly place with wonderful, personable service and some excellent food! Hopefully we will have as good as luck tomorrow when we go swimming with the manatees! If ever we are back in Crystal River again, we will be back again for sure! read more

i've heard about this place and i thought it was a nice and comfortable restaurant until i went there. First the boss kept coming to me and bombarding me with questions about the Wine Club. Once i finally got my falafel shawarma it was cold and there was a roach crawling on the seat next to me. i do not recommend this restaurant. read more

Ahhhh, perfect atmosphere, great food, great wine. Service was on point as well. Highly recommend this gem!

Absolutely the best food we have had in a long time. Wish I could give it more than 5 stars!!

Service was great, food was amazing. Super friendly made you feel like your local watering hole but also upscale food and atmosphere!

An amazing wine bar. An amazing beer bar. An amazing food bar. I can't comment on the coffee yet. Phenomenal selection of wine, beer and food. Owners are amazing. Chelsea's amazing as well. Can't get a better experience. This was my third time here and never disappointed. read more

We came in to grab some wine and a snack, and we had a great time! The back patio is very nice and covered with umbrellas. The service was wonderful and they were very accommodating with finding wines that we would enjoy. The wines were delicious and we had a cheese board that was packed full of delicious cheese, crackers, chocolates, and fruits. I'm looking forward to returning and having dinner here! read more

A great place to meet friends for great food and drinks. The staff is very friendly. I would highly recommend this place.

My parents and I decided to try KC Wine and Koffee Bar for lunch yesterday. What a delightful surprise! While we did not partake of their abundant wine and beer menu, the selection was impressive! Definitely will be back another time to enjoy some of their wine options. The food was very good! We ordered the Seared Tuna appetizer, the Cuban Lumpia, a nice blend of two great Cuban and Philippine cuisines! The Shwarma (Chicken) wrap was very tasty! The staff was very friendly, helpful and the owners were great! If you live in the area or are visiting Crystal River, this place is worth your time! read more

Our family of 5 had lunch on the back patio today. The owner and staff are extremely friendly and made us feel very welcome. We all had the gyros which were delicious and the sauce was very good. The staff was very attentive. We can't wait to go back! read more

I don't like giving bad reviews because I love seeing small businesses thrive but I also realize it's the reviews that encourages change and If no one ever tells them they will never know. I Have been to both the crystal River restaurant as well as the Beverly Hills one. This review is for the Beverly Hills one. When you walk in, The restaurant smells like really bad, old grease. It wasn't busy, one other couple and us. We waited and I finally ordered an appetizer pita chips and hummus. My friend and I were talking and looking over the menu and waiting for the waiter to come and take our Dinner order. Long story short, The Lady cook brings out the pita chips which are deep fried, shiny and dripping in grease, the hummus was worse, usually hummus has a little drizzle of olive oil on top, this had a layer of olive oil that completely covered the hummus to where the hummus appeared clumpy and gritty from the oil.This is no exaggeration, It was beyond edible. Hummus is usually served with warm or plain pita chips. Looking at the menu it says hummus with pita chips. I was embarrassed for them to serve What came to $12. 65 with tax that not only looked bad but was totally gross. After waiting quite a while for the waiter to take our order who was too busy chatting with the only other two people in there. We finally asked for our tab and Told him we had to wait too long and now we have to go. He acted like he was surprised and apologetic when he blatantly ignored us. When I got home I told my husband not only was it bad but I didn't even get to order dinner. What makes me even more mad is, because it was easier to just give him a $20 and not get change, he got a good tip to which he deserved none. While looking to write this review I saw they close at 7:00. I had no idea they closed at 7 while serving a dinner menu seems early. Why didn't he just say, " we close at 7:00 but can I get you anything?" It explains why he didn't want to take our order and when I asked if I could have plain pita chips instead of deep fried I noticed he and the lady cook back behind the counter talking and how unhappy she was to replace the chips with plain. They wanted us to leave so they could quickly clean up and go home. Having worked in customer service most of my life I understand what it is like and because of that I am always polite and nice as I was to both of them. Even though I have been disappointed in restaurants over the years, I have never given a bad review. It is unfortunate I am having to do so now. I will not recommend or go to this restaurant again. read more

Friendly, family owned and operated. Delicious food. I had the shrimp shawarma... Yummm!

First and foremost this place is amazing! First wine tasting that my daughter and myself have ever done. The wine was amazing! Jeff took care of us for the wine tasting, he has so much knowledge. His wife made our seared tuna and our cheese tray....first time that I actually enjoyed tuna, it was delicious! Let's not forget our wonderful waitress she was so pleasant and took pictures for us as well. Other customers enjoying their food and wine...we're just so nice as well. Thank you Jeff for all the time you took with us! Have a wonderful new year! read more

My husband and I went here the other night and we had an amazing experience, the owner was very friendly and also our waitress Christine was so funny and friendly. The food is so good and the price for the quality was excellent. They had a band there that night that did a really good job. If your around this area, please check this place out, also just as a heads up, this place is far better than the joint beside them , St. John's tavern. That place has rude staff and treat you like crap and ignore you. That's why we went next door and checked out this place , and I'm so glad we did. We will definitely be coming back here quite often. read more

Such a wonderful spot for good wine and a bite to eat. Service is outstanding. Sarah was our stellar bartender and Jeff the owner stopped by to chat as well. I haven't had such a thoroughly enjoyable time in a long time. Looking forward to another visit soon. read more

My wife and I were hungry and looking for a place after kayaking and paddle boarding and found this gem. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The food was fresh and tasty. It's everything you could want in a lunch or dinner spot. Highly recommend read more

Excellent food, wine, and experience. While Walking around on a hot day we came upon this gem. We stopped in for a glass of wine but ended up staying for several and enjoyed a beautiful cheese plate and a surprising twist, some hand made authentic Lumpia. Everything from atmosphere, friendly staff, and quality was 5 star. We did not have any coffee, but a couple came in and ordered lattes and a smoothie, all were made to order fresh and with an authentic espresso maker. The owners, husband and wife, bring both of their cultures (Chicago and Phillipino) together to create a wonderful menu and experience. We will be back, this locally owned and operated business is a must see. read more

Large selection of wine. Very friendly staff. Beautiful outdoor space to relax and catch up with friends. Indoor atmosphere is warm and inviting. The lumpia was wonderful read more

What a great find! We were passing through for a night in Crystal River and stopped in here for a glass of wine after dinner. They have a great selection of wine and beer....also coffee. We enjoyed our time so much we came back the next day for lunch as the menu looked so good. We were not disappointed. We had the Lumpia's and the Gyro...both were excellent. It is a family run business and everyone there is so welcoming and friendly. We are planning on going back next year on a return trip to Crystal River. read more
