    The Wine Down bar
    Rich H.

    The Wine Down is a gem! Jennifer made us feel at home! We love this place and will definitely return the next time we visit from Las Vegas. I highly recommend this beautiful bar!

    Here is a copy of the receipt where we were charged for them to open a couple of bottles of wine. I only had 2 glasses, 1 large and 1 small. So for each glass they charged me $2.00. Now, I have been in many bars and worked in several, never has a bartender charged to open a bottle!! Here is a copy of the receipt!!

    Mezze Plate

    If it wasn't for the trip to one of the hottest places in the world - none other than Death Valley National Park - I wouldn't have discovered this quaint dessert town of Pahrump; and this town is unincorporated, too. It's a good distance from the Sin City (one hour to the west); it's also a good distance from Death Valley (one hour to the east.) One of the things that this town can boast about is this cute wine place where you can grab a glass of tap wine and some small plates. This was so me-ish place so we picked this place to celebrate my birthday just last week. We were warmly welcomed by one of the ladies upon arrival. Although unassuming on the outside, it's a good-size restaurant. The bar area is spacious where some solo diners can sit with ease. The Wednesday night we dined in, there appeared to be some regulars sipping their favorite wines or cocktails (or even beers.) We grabbed one of the high-top tables to the right. The A/C was a bit strong where we got cold a bit but this appeared necessary to regulate the temperature throughout; you never know how warm an indoor facility like this can get quickly due to the dessert temperatures that can go near 90 degrees on any given day in the spring time. We understood. What caught my attention was the wines on tap. There are/were 6 of them. Our kind server gave me a little sample of Hayes Valley Meritage to taste to see if it would suit my palate. And it sure did! Actually, I was immediately impressed with it so I asked for a full 9oz glass. There is/was a good selection of small plates to savor as well. We went with Mezze Plate (slices of fresh cucumber, olives, earthy tasting hummus (tasted so organic with low amount of sodium), marinated cherry tomatoes, red pepper and feta cheese) is/was a good portion that can be shared between 2-3 people easily (this plate comes with pita bread pieces.) The mozzarella cheese and cherry tomato skewers with fresh basil leaves were absolutely beautiful on the rectangular plate and tasted amazing as well. Soup of the Day was broccoli cheddar that was accompanied by crunchy croutons on the side. If I asked for something better than this, I would forever be the world's number one complainer (lol)!! Once we devoured our foods, we, of course, concluded our fantastic dinner by ordering a dessert. We got the Chocolate Mouse cake (ugh, I wish I took a picture of the food menu; I completely spaced! I don't remember the exact name of this dessert.) This was a good size which can be shared between 2 people (if you only need a few to several bites.) It wasn't too sweet which I enjoyed; it nicely enhanced the whole bday dinner occasion to conclude the much-needed relaxing dine-out experience. The Wine Down is Pahrump's proud and joy. If you end up Airbnb'ing in this unincorporated dessert town for your next Death Valley trip, dine here at The Wine Down. You will not be disappointed.

    Parmesan Truffle Fries
    Kristi W.

    Found this intimate and chill wine bar in the Albertson's shopping center! The decor is relaxing and they have a light food menu to pair with your favorite wine. One of the owners, Jennifer welcomed us in and gave us a menu. They have wines on tap! They have a wide variety of wines and prices to fit most budgets, so lower end wines to high end wines. She said they have fun events, like painting on growlers, & live music and we can find information about happenings on their website. I chose a flight of sweet wines and paired it with bruschetta and some parmesan truffle fries. The bruschetta was fully loaded & so good! The fries came with a dipping sauce that was very unique and slightly tart. There is a giant TV behind the bar which sequenced through tranquil vacation scenes. FYI: sporting events are not shown here. You will have to stop by and experience this place while you are in Pahrump!

    I couldn't resist taking a few bites before snapping a picture of the amazing tri-tip sandwich.

    What a gem in Pahrump!! Tucked into the Albertsons shopping center is this wonderful bar and bistro. Big smiles from all the staff greet you as you enter this tastefully decorated establishment. Lots of wine to choose from of course, but also beers on tap and a full bar to handle whatever libations you're in the mood for. I visited at lunchtime so I only sampled the food, but wow!! I had the tri-tip sandwich with fries and it was one of the best I've ever had. Everyone there seemed to be enjoying their visit and the staff made a point to keep checking on everyone. I was only visiting the area, but I could see this being a regular hangout if I was a resident. If I'm lucky enough to visit the area again I will definitely return to The Wine Down!!

    My literal passport...

    I'm mind blown...I usually love wine bars, and I was super excited to sit down and have a glass after being at the DMV all day, I sit down and the lady asks for my id, so I give her my passport (thinking it will be easier since my id is about to expire and I already had my passport on me) after 5 minutes she told me she couldn't serve me...at first I thought she was joking, I kindly Told her I'm 26, a bartender as well, and I'm coming from the dmv, she said "I've never had to look at a passport for ID before" whoever hired this lady, please reconsider your hiring process...after she finally accepted it I told her it was okay and I just left.

    We had a long day checking out Ash Meadows. We rolled into Pahrump and found this fantastic gem of a place! They offer great wines (even on tap), beer on tap, full bar, wine tastings, and slushy. Super warm and welcoming staff, charcuterie board food, and atmosphere. They were kind enough to place GF crackers and regular crackers on separate plates. This place hit the spot. We will definitely be back.

    Dessert!

Booths and bar seating available. We were quickly greeted by a delightful young man by the name of John. Who entertained us with stories of his upbringing and his haka. The handsome chef came out to greet us and explained the menu and answered all of our questions. He served us the Korean fried chicken. Very crispy skin. Flavorful with a little bit of spice. Sat on a bed of greens. Next we ordered the sea bass. Light and flaky. Served with coconut rice and a mole sauce. The top was crispy too. The sides paired well with the fish. Also ordered the rib eye mole. The steak was tender and juicy. The smoked mole sauce was so good. Tasted very authentic and we were very surprised that the chiles actually came from Huahaca (?? Spelling). It was a great accompaniment to the steak. It came with house made fresh tortillas. We asked for extra jalapeños and hot sauce and they were very accommodating. I'm not much of a drinker so when I asked John, who is also a very talented mixologist, to make me something that tasted like juice, he delivered this beautiful lychee "martini". The presentation was amazing. And went well with my fish. They had me try the pickle drink. The foam on top was good and the "margarita" at the bottom was good too. They even surprised us with tofu cheesecake. I don't like tofu or cheescake, but wow, this dessert was light. Not overly sweet. It was a perfect way to end the meal. The Chef and John and the other mixologist from Thailand were so friendly that even when we finished our meal, they shared stories with us. They made us feel like VIPs in our own private restaurant with a private chef and mixologists. We felt very welcomed and not rushed. Will definitely be back again for the top notch service!!

We were sat at a super cute table (there were 4 of us) and looked through the menu. The decor was super cute! Sort of old vintage looking couches around some tables, dim lighting, I loved the vibe.

While waiting for those, our friend went to close out the tab and ordered shots, but asked for something that would be good. They proceeded to give us something with muddled strawberries, I was blown away at how good it was! Best shot I have ever had, so fresh.

The indoor space is sexy and dark, beautifully designed with lots of velvet and rich textures all around. In a cool contrast, the back patio is a bright, vibrant mix of pink, turquoise, and white. While you're out there, be sure to snap a picture in their photo booth! The staff here is simply INCREDIBLE! They are always so welcoming and do a fantastic job of helping walk you through the menu. Because the cocktail menu changes frequently with unique, rotating themes, you get a completely fresh experience every single time you visit. On my last trip, the theme was music through different eras of time, which was easily one of my favorites yet. They also have standard house cocktails, be sure to check out the punch of the day! Before you leave, don't forget to check out their cool merch and swag, which is beautifully framed up on the wall right behind the bar. No matter where you are staying in Vegas, make sure to put Velveteen Rabbit at the very top of your destination list!
