I am surprised not to see more…read morereviews on the business page since we could tell how popular the place was despite it only being open for 7ish weeks. I almost inadvertently reviewed the Lutz location so it's possible others are overlooking the location difference. We did not take many pictures as doing so would have felt a little awkward with such a large crowd around, but I did take a picture of my receipt to recall what delightful wine I indulged in! I had the Hope Dies Last red blend while my date had the Red My Mind tasting flight for $28. The sommelier we had was super knowledgeable although it took quite a while to place our first order since the bar he was tending to was full. We didn't order any food since we were heading to dinner shortly after, but I definitely intend to return for a visit with friends in the near future!

Went there for the first time in a very long time - Caymus wine tasting. Overall, had a really…read morewonderful experience! First, everyone was so friendly. Next, the pours were generous for this type of a tasting and seconds were available if wanted.

And finally, the pricing for wine purchased at the tasting was truly unbeatable! We will be back!

We stopped in on a Thursday evening without a reservation and were very pleased to find seating available at the bar. Victor, the owner, took care of our party himself. He's got a wealth of knowledge about the wines and products he stocks, so do not hesitate to ask him for a recommendation. Also, definitely DO ask him to serve up some of La Vid's house snacks, like their house Manchego cheese -- absolutely delicious! And then, of course, there's the wine and sundries selection. Some of the items we ended up buying: Lial Tempranillo from Ribera de Duero; canned polpo gallego (Galician style octopus); Fermin brand 100% Iberico de bellota (acorn-fed) lomo (pork loin), jamon (ham), salchicion (salame-style pork sausage), and dry cured chorizo sausage, along with a jar of the house Manchego I mentioned earlier. As you can imagine, it was not an inexpensive visit, but it was definitely an enjoyable one. We don't get out to Carrollwood very often at all, but La Vid Fine Wines may just change that.

I always look forward to trying a couple new tapas on the happy hour menu along with a couple drinks for the wife and I. Worthy of 4 stars Service is typically very accommodating and helpful. However the last time me and my family went there was a bit of a letdown. First of all it was 8 of us so they sat us at the first table when you walk in on the right. Things were going well, however after the first 10-15 minutes we realized everyone was freezing! There was a vent pushing air non stop on us and it was not enjoyable. Towards the end we had to actively leave to go outside to warm up. You may ask, did you inquire with the team to assist to see about turning the air down? We sure did, the host working that day (May 2nd evening time) said there is nothing we can do, we can't move you now that you've sat down and that they typically tell people to bring a jacket if they plan on sitting them there. Well great! Problem solved, we appreciate absolutely no heads up and now we are not enjoying our time. There was also an event going on the patio, to which they had all left and lingering outside/parking lot area, we inquired again with the host to see if we could go on the patio for the remainder of our drinks. She also said no, as there was still some time left on that parties reservation (even though no one was there). All in all, horrible host, and I won't be back with a large family after spending $400+ with the potential risk of sitting and freezing our a$$ off. However will continue to support local business with my wife and I.

They serve you quickly and you never have to wait to order more. Although this is a very enjoyable wine bar, it is a little too upscale & pricey for the area. There are no flights, specials, or happy hours, so I don't go nearly as often as I'd like. I really wish they had some kind of specials so I could enjoy it more often. It seems like a place that would be in south tampa or downtown, but being in Lutz it would be nice if was more affordable for locals. It also lacks the fun and charisma that used to be there under the previous owners. Tastings, classes, events like trivia night, or weekly specials would really make this bar feel more lively & welcoming.

Wine, snacks, apps, friendly people. What's not to love?…read more Louie's Wine Bar is a sweet little stop on Van Dyke Road, in the same plaza as Nabruzzi Trattoria. The restaurant can get crazy busy, so parking can be wonky, but thankfully, there is a back parking lot and a back entrance to Louie's Wine bar. In huge latters above the back door it says WINE BAR. You can't miss it. In fact, I think I prefer to park out back, because the spots in the front lot are so tight. Anyway, come on in, sit at the bar, or in a comfy chair or at a high top, nobody minds. Coralee, Robert or Lee will greet you warmly, and get you a glass of water while you peruse the extensive wine menu. They offer a huge variety of whites, rose's , bubbles and red wines by the glass, by the bottle and some even by the half bottle. Pick your poison. If you are having trouble deciding, they will pour you a taste to compare to help you make your best decision. They also have a small but thorough food selection. Flatbreads, boards and snacks to satisfy your hunger no matter the level. I find this Wine bar a lovely addition to the neighborhood, a great place to unwind and hang out with old friends and make some new ones as well.

We were surprised how quickly our friends were able to make reservations since this place is ALWAYS packed. The entryway if very small. It leads right into the wine tasting area, and that with the waiting area, it can get packed and overwhelming very quickly. This place is not as big as Cooper's Hawk so it can start feeling like a New York City train car pretty quickly. My friends and I were placed in a small booth. The space between the booths are pretty small, so if you are someone who throws your head back when laughing, there is a change you may hit the person behind you if they are sitting back. I think because of the small size, the noise level can get pretty loud at time, making it hard to carry conversations sometimes during the evening shifts. The food was very good, everything very tasty. I was super excited to try to blossoms especially and they didn't disappoint. They only come in fours, so we had one each, but I would next time order two plates because it's hard to just have one, if you plan on sharing. They do have outdoor seating, but it's difficult to sit there during the summer months of Florida. Not sure if they had fans, but the evening we were there a bad storm came through. They did lower the blinds, but not sure how much protection the people there received from the rain. Would for sure like to go again, perhaps an afternoon date. Was bummed risotto (my favorite) was not on the menu.

What an incredible dining experience! From the moment we walked into Esposito's Italian Restaurant,…read morewe were treated like family. The level of service honestly reminded us of Bern's Steak House--professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Our server, Alvaro, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable about the menu, made great recommendations, and was attentive without ever being overbearing. Paul greeted us when we arrived and checked on us throughout dinner, which made us feel truly valued as guests. We started with the Caponata Siciliano "Bruschetta Style," and it was the perfect way to begin our meal. It came with 4 pieces of bread, we couldn't resist eating 2 of them before the photo. For our entrée, we had the Tortellini alla Panna, which was rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. We ended the evening with chocolate, pistachio, and strawberry gelato, and were pleasantly surprised with complimentary cannolis--a thoughtful touch that made the night even more special. It's rare to find a restaurant that delivers both exceptional food and equally exceptional hospitality. Esposito's exceeded our expectations on every level. We highly recommend it and will definitely be back!

The restaurant is deceiving bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside.
