    You can buy a round for the kitchen!

    I was not aware that this quaint and fabulous space existed. My friend suggested we go here for a girls night out and I loved every second of it. The place is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Has multiple tables and sofa areas. A huge list of wines by the glass, flights, or bottles. The food menu has a good amount of shareable and main dishes. And the service was simply excellent. I believe our server's name was Christopher (or Christian yikes me and names) and he did an amazing job. From the beginning he was super welcoming and helpful. The food was really good. We shared the baked Brie, the Margherita flat bread, and one of the salads. To drink we had the red wine flights and they were delicious specially after having bites of food. This place is perfect for dates with friends, lovers, and/or yourself. Definitely will be visiting again. And you can buy a round for the kitchen. Soooo cool!

    We've been back to Uva now two times since our first visit. Second time the calamari did not match up. This time we got bruschetta to share. We were surprised the bread wasn't toasted but the tomato/mozzarella blend was okay. Fresh basil would have been a good addition. One person's meal (tacos) came out the same time as the bruschetta. Flatbread pizza next, 1 Cubano next, then the soup and the other Cubano. All were served quickly but it would have been better if the soup was served first and then the other meals. Plus 2 cups of soup were ordered and we got one cup and one bowl. Whatever the drizzle was on the pizza was weird. Tasted like lime? Or something spoiled. WiFi would not work and only had 1 bar on the phones. Sorry, Uva. We wanted to like you.

    I came here for a Yelp event and ended up staying and eating because the place looked really nice. I ordered a few tacos and my wife had a wine sampler and ceviche. They have a massive wine menu. The waitress did a great job explaining what the wine options are and the food menu. We really enjoyed dining here. The atmosphere, music, seating area, decor, location, etc. it all has a really great vibe.

    Dropped in real quick for a Yelp event. Admittedly I couldn't stay and that had me weak in the knees! The business is tucked in up north in a quite busy shopping center but it's easy to navigate your way in! The signage is simplistic and easy to see from the road. Also super helpful! I walked in and checked in and got the perk all while attempting not to stare at what everyone was noshing on. It looked delicious, plus all the wine everywhere was absolutely tempting. The owner was absolutely wonderful and just so sweet! Oh the hostess as well was super friendly. It has to say something about the work environment. Curse these children of mine and their sports! Lol. I did just get home and try the bottle of Angelo Cellars wine and mmmmmm! It was paired with some chicken and wild rice I made. Let me tell you it was absolutely perfect! Not only will I be back for date night, I will be checking the wine out to buy more.

    Margarita Flatbread

    Food tastes great, brussel sprouts (we got 2 orders they are so good) and French onion smash burger are 10/10. Very kind service and a smaller indoors. Reasonably priced , will definitely be going back for the shareables dinner vibe!

    3.5 stars. We booked a reservation for Day 1 of restaurant week because they're on the list of restaurants participating. When we were seated and I asked about the restaurant week menu, they said they weren't doing anything this week, and maybe would plan something for the next weekend. Bummer! So call and ask if you're going to come here for restaurant week. Obviously a lot of choices for wines primarily from the US, France, and Italy. Their house special flights are all reds so I stayed away from those. They have usual house flights, 3 of which are whites and the others are all reds. We chose the Patio Pounders (Reisling, Vinho verde and a Pinot Noir Rose), Great Whites (Souvignon blanc and 2 Chardonnays I think or maybe the other way round) and one of the reds flight that I don't remember the name of now. I liked my Patio Pounders flight. The Rose didn't taste too red and actually was a little on the sweeter side so I did not hate it (my usual reaction to reds/roses). The Vinho verde was a little mild and smooth which I really like. The Reisling was delicious!! Considering the Reisling is my go to white wine, loved this particular glass! My friends enjoyed their flights too but I didn't taste those myself to be able to comment. The food: we were told they have a late shipment so many of the things were not available. We got the burrata, ceviche and the fig and prosciutto flatbread board. The burrata was very nice. The nachos with the ceviche were good but the ceviche itself was just ok. My friend, who is from Miami, was not very impressed. The flat bread was very very good and we recommend that for sure! Pricey place. We each paid about $30 bucks for this whole menu. They also said that reservations are for 90 mins blocks. So you may be asked to leave after then. We finished dot on time, so I can't say that happened to us.

    Amazing wine!

    Love love love this place! Craig is always so wonderful and accommodating. He's the bar manager and gives great suggestions on food and wine and amazing service! The baked Brie, calamari, pork cracklins, flat breads and tacos are amazing. The ambiance is quaint and chic. It's so worth a girls night or a date spot!

    One of the few places you can get great food and great drinks…read more The cup of bacon and the fried cheese were both great starters. The fried cheese is very different from your other standard cheeses or mozzarella sticks. The cheese is much more firm with a light fry. The cup of bacon is fatty, salty, with a tiny bit of sweetness. The ricotta gnocchi bolognese has some amazing fresh gnocchi. The bolognese sauce was okay so it's a fine dish but I probably wouldn't get it again. The duck poutine has delicious fresh fries that end up crisp topped with tons of cheese and gravy. Not a lot of duck, but a great poutine overall. Every item is always a treat and unique and makes me want to try the whole menu.

I went solo and decided to sit at the bar where they had three bartenders that would rotate with all the customers making it very efficient and great coverage. The food was very inventive; not your typical fare even for a bistro. I started with the lobster tater tots that were served with ranch. He had the perfect amount of seafood flavor and a super crispy outer; I would recommend. Next, I had the ginger pork and crispy rice dish. This had a large helping of pork that did well with the Asian flavors and that crispy rice for texture; I would recommend. My final was the miso butterscotch tart. You can't go wrong with a dessert that has butterscotch, Biscoff, marshmallow and miso. The only criticism I could make was that the tart was pretty loose, but that did not take away from the flavor. To drink this place has lots of beer taps, a good selection of wine and plenty of interesting cocktails. I chose to have a couple beers and they were both very tasty. I would like to come back with additional people so that we could try more of the menu items. Unfortunately, it is an hour away from where I live, but the next time I find myself down in the springs, I will return.

    I heard so many good things about this place that a friend and I decided to dine there. Now mind…read moreyou, neither of us drink alcohol so we can't rate what I've come find out is a bar, not really a restaurant. What I can say is that our lovely waitress, Lindsey, had to run all over the hotel up and down elevators to find a couple of bottles of sparkling water. A bar, that doesn't have sparkling water? The menu is pretty extensive for a bar so we ordered several things. I knew we shouldn't expect 4 star dining when I first ordered the mochi's to start, because my world traveled friend had never had one. It was a chemical confection of freezer burn and rubber and sadly would never win any awards. Meanwhile, Lindsey announced that she was still on the hunt for sparkling water! Next our food came out in strange order. My friend had the rubbery chicken wings and I had the Burrata cheese and sourdough having also ordered a crab salad. Meanwhile Lindsey had returned to the table to announce "they" were all still looking throughout the Hotel Polaris for Perrier, San Pellegrino or any kind of sparkling water. The salad came out as pig slop in a cup. Hosed down crab with so much mayo that it could honestly have easily been misidentified as a colon mass. It went back to die in a kitchen that I suspect is stocked with nothing more than frozen food from Kroger. Instead Lindsey offered just crabmeat in a cup. Wanting to just eat I eagerly agreed, after all she was so lovely and was trying so hard to find that damn water. lol When the bowl was returned to my table it was frozen fake crab, no labeling on the menu that it would be fake crabmeat. Once again the search began for anything healthy to eat. Then the lobster meat came out in the same size small queso like cup with a side of cold drawn butter congealing. By now I was done, BUT THE WATER WAS FOUND !!! TWO SMALL BOTTLES OF PERRIER SAVED THE NIGHT. A liquid diet it would be for me and all for the price of a small dog. :) I'd like to thank God for giving me such a humorous, patient spirit,l I'd like to thank my date for his eye rolls with smiles as they fumbled through our meal, I'd like to thank Lindsey for her tenacity, determination and devotion to her customers and I'd appreciate a thank you from Lindsey for my helping her to reach 10,000 steps in just under 2 hours. :) Bypass this place unless you're desperate for a view of the mountains and alcohol.

Steak bites, truffle fries, brownie skillet... I want to come back just to try more food alone. This was insane and the pricing was good, the value was good, and I even ordered truffle fries to go because I loved it so much! What is super fun is that they now have wine tastings on Tuesdays and it is a great deal. $12 for four wines. Someone tells you about each wine and it's a great way to sample a bunch of wines, both local and not. I was super excited about that! I will again, come back to do that! Lots of positives there. And our server was very sweet. She was checking in and making sure we were doing well. I wish I knew her name but sadly I don't. But she was so kind and had a great personality. And everything came out fast! The vibes are also good. I love the outdoor seating/patio options for a hot summer night. And it was very lush. It's funny because I had never heard of this place before but it is in a fantastic area near Night Ramen and Provision Bakery (two amazing spots). Breakfast at Provision, apps and drinks at My Cellar Wine Bar, and maybe a dinner at Night Ramen. Haha! Just kidding, but again, great spot. Here's where I have issues. I worked in the restaurant industry for six years. I understand staying over close and even coming in close to close is a no no (at least for me). But we arrived at 7:30 pm and stayed until 9:45 pm. One of my best friends is getting married so she wanted to show us her dress and share her excitement. At 9 pm (note they close at 10 pm), they turned on the lights, began sweeping, closed the kitchen, and even at one point blasted music. We asked the waitress when they closed the wine bar. 10 pm. But what frustrated me the most is that the manager (I assume) came over and was acting extremely condescending. "I know you girls are having such a good time!!" And was trying to usher us out. Girl. You don't close until 10 pm. It's 9:45. If you didn't want us to stay, then maybe change the hours. I don't care if we are the only ones there. It was extremely rude and the way she said it felt, as I said, condescending. Like we were young and dumb or something. As a diner, I expect great service. Which we got for the most part. But to kick us out before it closes is unprofessional and frustrating. Of course we left, but god forbid a girl get excited about her wedding and wants to share all about it. This left a sour taste in my mouth and again, if you wanted to close early, maybe don't tell patrons the actual time you close: 10 pm. We bought a lot and a bottle of wine. Let us finish our glasses and I promise we will leave before close. I would still come back, but maybe I'll go to Vine and Wheel or another wine bar first.

    Popped in for the first time, and I'm kicking myself that I didn't know this spot was here before…read morenow.
