    Pork Papparedlle
    Faith J.

    Came here for an early dinner, and the atmosphere was really nice! We sat in the upstairs area, which was cozy and had a great ambiance. 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. The portion size was nice, but I do wish it had a bit more seasoning to bring out the flavors. 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.

    Long story short - I found a large sparkly red finger nail clipping in my leftover pasta. Absolutely unacceptable. I came for a work dinner yesterday evening and got my tried and true creste di gallo. The pasta was tasted good however the chicken was dry. The portion was big so I took a box to go (of note, my waiter packed my dish to go and didn't have on nail polish). I heated up my pasta later & saw the nail clipping that I've attached here (I thought it was tomato until the end). I'm quite nauseated by this - I have never seen anything like this in a dish before. My waiter provided great service. Parking on the second floor is free for two hours.

    A solid brunch experience today. Misty was our server and she was timely in checking on us and was friendly. My meal was fresh, delicious, and filling. Although I had a reservation for 11am, it was hardly needed as the joint was pretty quiet (at least downstairs where we were seated). The menu had plenty of interesting items to try so worth a resturn visit. Prices were more than gair for the quality and quantity we got. Shared metered parking lot was also pretty convenient as it was not packed.

    Absolutely loved this place! A friend recommended it to me, and I went in with no expectations but it completely exceeded them. The restaurant itself is beautiful, especially during brunch with all the natural lighting coming through the indoor space. Such a lovely atmosphere with plants surrounding us. The food was amazing, and sharing appetizers was the perfect way to try a few different things. They also have a huge wine selection, which I really enjoyed. I tried their pizza paired with wine, and honestly, it was the perfect combination. The service was also excellent, everyone was welcoming, attentive, and made the experience even better without feeling rushed. They even asked if we wanted to help to get our picture taken, that was so sweet of them.

    Carrot cake pancakes

    We came here for my work baby shower and it was so good!!! Such a fun atmosphere, natural lighting. All their wine is on tap. Service was great, super friendly kind and accommodating. The food was so good. The carrot cake pancakes were delicious. The French fries were perfect and the dipping sauces were not your typical but I loved them. The coffee came with this really yummy brownie type cookie which i thought was so cute. The only thing was the parking is not ideal. We went on a Saturday afternoon so it was packed. The parking garage was free but not a lot of parking when it's busy.

    Didn't know of this place until we went here for a group dinner. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to start, and each ordered some wine. Wine pricing is fair, with a good selection, and price points (on the lower end). Half-pours available! Personally, I wish there was more than just one Riesling. The wood-fired cauliflower, salumi & cheese board, and truffled vineyard fries were all excellent choices. The daylight spritz mocktail was good as well. For my main, I ordered a house salad to start and a Double Cabernet Burger. The house salad was amazingly good, one of the best I've had in recent memory. The portion size and price at $9 was incredible. Loved the candied walnuts, sliced strawberries, peppered pecorino, and the citrus-honey vinaigrette. The burger was a little disappointing in comparison. While I love a good double patty, and potato buns, it was honestly just too messy to eat, and the buns could not hold up well against the fairly saucy/smothered patties and toppings. Staff were friendly, and water was provided fairly quickly. Restrooms were nice. Parking was easy, the garage leads right up to the upper floor of the restaurant. First 2 hours free, and even the next hour was pretty cheap! Easily a top happy hour spot in the Rice Village/West U area!

    Fig & Prosciutto Pizza
    Caroline Y.

    Loved stumbling upon this place -- and will now seek it out when I'm around here! This cute casual but chic wine bar/restaurant is nestled in the shops around rice village (there may be a name for this area) and worked perfectly for a stop in lunch. They have a massive wine list, options to make a wine flight, but also wine-based cocktails. I enjoyed their froze, made with jam jar red wine. It was delicious and served with fruit topping. For lunch, they have an excellent deal called the "Duo" - a house or Caesar salad with a half pizza of your choice. Incredible deal -- the pizza was quite large and I ended up taking half home. I had the house salad - super yummy, a bit tart and fresh - with the fig and prosciutto pizza. Pizza was excellent -- New York style I believe, nice crust. Great service and in a convenient location with the shops.

    This place will be placed in rotation!! We had originally went to another restaurant for drinks and appetizers and everything was and went horribly! After cashing out we saw that Sixty vines was down the sidewalk and once entering through the doors everything was amazing!! From the energy, the ambiance, the music, the bartender (wish I remembered her name), THE DRINKS, and the zucchini! Most definitely will be back!! Especially for the frozen espresso martini !!!!

    Lovely restaurant! I've been to Sixty Vines for happy hour and recently came back to try their brunch. Although a chain restaurant, sixty vines has such a personalized feel and very warming atmosphere, high quality service. We were seated outside under the covered patio which was perfect to beat the Houston heat but still enjoy the busy Rice Village scenery. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and courteous. For my drink I ordered an Aperol spritz which was made perfectly ~ refreshing and crisp. For my meal I ordered the beet and herbed goat cheese salad with shrimp which was delicious. I was craving the earthy, semi sweet beet flavor and this definitely did the trick. The goat cheese was soft and tart which was a great pairing. I also ordered the shrimp and bacon pizza to get some carbs in which was really delicious as well. Their desert options looked so yummy as well so I'd definitely come back to try more of their food options!

    I love Sixty Vines! Definitely one of my go to spots. The staff is always so friendly, and I highly recommend making a reservation in advance, especially on weekends. They also have bar seating, which is perfect for a more casual visit. The frosé is my favorite, and the food never disappoints.

    Double Cabernet Burger
    Lyndsey N.

    This is a great place for wine lovers looking to unwind with a glass after work. We sat at the bar during happy hour. The HH menu is limited, so this may not be the best spot if you're wanting to have a variety to choose from. They have a big selection of wines and the servers are very knowledgeable, perfect for those that are still looking for their favorite type of wine. In addition to enjoying the house red, we got the burrata and the burger. The burger was great! You could taste the Cabernet in the patty. The burrata was also good, simple and light. If you work in the med center, pic this place as your next meeting spot!

    Is it realistic to dine at 6 pm on a Thursday before a 7:30 Main Street Theater show at 7:30?

    How loud is it? Hoping to have a casual business meeting lunch

    It seems louder on the top level than the lower level to me but definitely a place you could have a meeting.

    Do they accept walk in or do we have to make a reservation?

    They accept walk in.

    What's parking like?

    There is meter parking towards the front of the restaurant for easy access but you have to pay a few dollars for it. Otherwise, there is validated garage parking that's few short walking minutes away

    Is there anything more corny than when a restaurant has one gluten free option and one vegan option and they are the same dish?

    Ah I see what you did there, corny, corn, vegan I get it! Try asking your server if any modifications can be made to other dishes in order to make them vegan or gluten free.

    Does Sixty Vines have a private room?

    Yes. I attended a work lunch meeting in the private room in the back.

    Do they serve cocktails or beer ? Or is it only wine?

    They have ciders and brews but don't think they serve any cocktails.

    Do they serve brunch on Fridays?

    Nope.

    Is there Happy hour? Didn't see anything on website and yet it keeps coming up online for it.

    I have been several times and have never seen a happy hour

    Is this teenager friendly?

    Yes

    Do they have live music? If so, when?

    No, not that I have ever seen.

    Do they have gluten free options?

    There's GF flat bread, pizza crust, pasta and sandwich buns

    No one speaks about the cost....there is no $$ code to help with the absence of price on the menu available on line. Where might I see the costs of that very compelling menu?

    You can look at the menu photos on Yelp!

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). While I know that owner Paulie won't be moving this venture to a new spot, I do hope a descendant of Camerata manifests itself somewhere in Houston in the coming years.

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.

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.

So I quickly messaged the instructor, knowing his classes were still going on, and not long after he messaged me back a picture and said are these your shoes and I'm so happy he did that because I don't trust this place to have cared, but to also have even looked after the class was over. He kindly left it with the staff there and let me know so I called and they were very rude and snappy to say "Yes OK?! we have them". I was unable to go that following week to pick them up so I went a little over a week later and I just wanted to call to confirm they were still there and the person again was very rude and simply said "YES WE ALREADY TOLD YOU A WEEK AGO THEY WERE HERE AND YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE COME TO PICK THEM UP SO IF YOU DIDN'T THEN THEY MUST STILL BE HERE!" and hung up. Since I was making the commute out there in traffic on a Friday with my daughter I decided to call back and ask that they confirm that they're still back there and the same gentleman answered, and very rudely said " LISTEN WE ARE NOT A SHOE STORE. SO NO WE ARE VERY BUSY!" and to no surprise been a surprise HUNG UP right after that. When I got there, there were tables open and the bartenders greeted me and clearly did not know. I was the same person that they had been very rudely talking to so I asked about the shoes he went and got them and I asked if he was the gentleman I had taught you on the phone and he couldn't even look me in the eye but still said "no". However, I recognized his voice and clearly knew it was him. This place is not only is very expensive for drinks and food, but the staff being the way they are no customer should ever be treated like this. I was not rude, was not angry, and yet was treated with such little respect. There are a bunch of other, really nice places with the same vibe and much nicer stuff that you can give your money to on a night out. **Update: completely disagree with your response, and the fact that you can't take ownership for the way that your staff talks to customers is exactly why I feel my review is very valid. I did not call 8 times. These were not house slippers. Also, some additional notes you made are not true.**

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!

    It's the sort of place filled to the brim with degenerates pulling a Bukowski on their lunch break…read more I love this place. It took over what was literally the WORST Jamba Juice kiosk ever that always made me late to class when I was still in school. This was a much needed improvement, because you can't get turnt up on a smoothie no matter how hard your blessed little heart tries. Even the spelling of the Whole Foods Megacorp's 95th in-store bar will get you a little turnt up, either from sheer whimsy or out of college-educated just plain knowing better how certain things are spelled and how certain things are not spelled unless they are as full of shit as a Christmas turkey. The difference is whether you are on your first or seventh pint moreso than whether you skipped second breakfast and elevenses before showing up here in all of your splendor. Mondays are pizza/pint night for $5 between 6-8pm. Local Brew Fridays are $3 pints between 3-6pm. Write that one down. Also according to the internets, the last Thursday of the month is Zoo Beats Day so between 6-8pm some spare change marches into the coffers of the Houston Zoo's conservation efforts. If you would not drink for the critters then you are a very bad man. Get my hat Felicia, we're drinking for three.

    I already drop into this Whole Foods for lunch, juice, meetings, etc. multiple times a week - say,…read moretwo to three - so the fact that wine/beer bar Kirbside is now open inside, I visit even more often. They have happy hour, which sadly ends too early to really consider it "happy." (HH is Mon-Thu 2-5pm). They have a food menu of cheese plates and pizzas, or you can build your own pizza for $8. I created a pretty damn good pizza with chicken, broccolini and artichokes on wheat crust - da bomb. The server even mentioned she was gonna make one of her own. Weekly Specials: ::Mon 6-8pm: Slice of 'za and pint of beer for $5 :: Wed: $3 select pints, $4 select wines by the glass; HH food specials 6-8pm :: Fri: $3 local pints 3-6 pm :: Sun: $3 mimosas noon-2pm The Kirbside Bar opens at 11 am.

I opted for the high top right by the kitchen, and honestly, great choice -- it smelled amazing. Most people prefer not to sit by the kitchen with all the foot traffic but I didn't mind it at all. Nobie's is a house that's been transformed into a restaurant. One of the bartenders told me it's a 104-year-old house, and the whole place has very "house party" vibes in the best way. The music is LOUD. And it gets progressively louder as the night goes on, so if that's not your vibe, keep that in mind. But I was very into it. Lil Flip was playing when I walked in and it took me back to high school house parties. On shuffle were more throwbacks and classics: Ludacris and "Notorious Thugs" by Biggie. The chairs, however, were not my favorite. They're low-backed and kind of cage-like, with only a thin cushion, so they aren't exactly the most comfortable for a long meal. Started with a cocktail: the Remolacha del Corazón -- beet tequila, mezcal, watermelon (house-made syrup), lime and a tajín rim. You can hardly taste the mezcal, which I'm assuming is the point. I like mezcal so it would have been nice to taste it but the beet tequila is definitely the star, with the watermelon and lime adding a nice balance. Appetizer: Don't Worry, Brie Happy ($18). Brie, local honey, smoked grapes, toast. There was basically no local honey on my plate, but those smoked grapes?! They're topped with flaky salt while they're still hot and OMG!! The combination of warm, smoky, sweet and salty was fantastic. My only complaint was the amount of toast. There was a little too much toast for the amount of brie and grapes, so the ratios felt slightly off. Main course: Jamón With Your Bad Self ($45). Ibérico secreto pork steak, tonnato, shaved Brussels sprouts, salsa verde and almonds. I'm particular about pork, so I was taking a bit of a chance here, but this dish sounded too interesting to pass up. The pork steak was cooked perfectly and had some wonderfully crispy pieces around the edges. The tonnato underneath the pork was really good. It almost reminded me of a Caesar dressing and added this rich, savory element to the dish. The shaved Brussels sprouts were great, too, especially with the almonds and Parmesan. Everything worked really well together. Dessert: Olive Oil Cake. A house staple, and for good reason. A lovely way to end the meal. Overall, Nobie's has a really fun, unpretentious energy. Between the old-house setting, loud music and memorable dishes, it feels like somewhere you go to hang out as much as you go to eat. Just know what you're getting into with the volume and the seating -- this is not exactly a quiet, polished fine-dining experience, and that's kind of the charm.

This shop differentiates itself from others in that they sell natural wines - organic and no additives or preservatives. I did notice with these wines that you don't quite get the same buzz as with other wine; on the flip side, you don't wake up feeling groggy the next day. The vibe inside is super cute and intimate. 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. I appreciate having Light Years as a local neighborhood wine shop and will definitely be back to meet up with friends after a long day over some wine.

    Knowledgeable staff, good selection. Cozy back patio. Parking situation is a bit untenable!read more
