From the front, it looks like any other liquor mart but this spot is a great local gem. There was another Burbank local showing us the ropes. You can browse the shop, grab and make your own charcuterie board to enjoy at the bar with their wine tastings. They give you a plate and knife if you need. Along with their wine tastings, they had 2 live DJ's. There were 3 flights to choose from. We did all of them! They also have other events to enjoy, so be sure to join their email to stay in the loop. read more

What a wonderful store! Came in on a Saturday afternoon and pretty much had the place to myself. While I didn't find what I was looking for, the staff here was super helpful and friendly. Prices are a tad higher here than the bigger name stores, but the vibes were great. Felt more intimate and I seriously could have stayed a couple of hours and gotten lost in the aisles - so much to see! They have a vast amount of wine, beer and liquor and I was reminded that they have wine tastings as well. Joseph was a total gem - he had wonderful insight and was super welcoming. Parking is easy in their lot. I'll definitely be back here! read more

Once upon a time, This faerie Queen had to stop. This place brought me right back to the 1980's and the first place that sold wine coolers in the area. Stopped for a nostalgia break. The end. read more

The wine tasting was great and very well priced. The owner was very kind and knowledgeable

Vendome Wines and Spirits - They have my FAVORITE sangria. Only 2 other places carry it. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a fantastic find in the area! We were headed to my sister's house and I totally forgot the wine in the fridge when we left the house, so I was lucky enough to find this place on Yelp. First, I'm super jealous. What an amazing selection of wine and spirits. The wines prices are very reasonable and organized, so it's easy to find what you're looking for, especially if you have something in mind. If you're not sure what you want or are a little intimidated by the selection, the staff is very friendly and knowledgable. Since we were on the way to a party, we purchased a couple bottles and a decanter, which was very convenient. They also have a wine tasting area, which looks awesome. If I lived a little closer, I would definitely take advantage of the tasting area. There's plenty of space, so you can bring a few friends to enjoy the wines. This places in waaaay better than BevMo or Total Wines or any of those big box wine shops that you might have near you. If you're in the area or have a chance to pop by, I would definitely recommend it. Cheers! read more

Great selection of craft beer and pretty affordable too. They do single can options which is nice. They do beer tasting on the weekends which is fun, they also have a nice wine list from what I can tell. Great store with nice staff. read more

Amazing selection of wines including some obscure stuff, if you're stuck, ask anyone for a recommendation. They are super knowledgeable and have recommended some great wines! read more

Whenever I walk in, I always walk out with what I was looking for. One of my favorite spots for spirits. A very wide selection of everything. Also serving non alcoholic beverages. For parties with a large group or just picking up a bottle for yourself, Vendome is a great spot. Wine tasting in the back on selected days and a humidor filled with premium cigars. This is the one stop shop. There are usually specials on display to consider for several liquors. I have shopped here many of times, have found some bottles a bit pricey and others so cheap ,I would buy 2 to stock up. But, honestly I have never been disappointed read more

We were visiting from Seattle so I don't know this area at all. I was desperate to find wine for a family get together and had limited time. We stumbled upon this place and although it looks a little beat up we took a chance. The older gentleman inside was so helpful with finding us a wine to pair with the meal we were having. They have a huge selection of wines. Highly recommend!! read more

well stocked and they have knowledgeable staff who really seem to have a passion for what they stock. some of the staff can be a little bit snobby sometimes and slightly condescending so I'm not sure i'd recommend this if you are going in to learn. But there is still nothing like it in the area unless you are into hole in the wall liquor stores and my go-to shop for wine and spirits and something you won't find everywhere. I always leave with something more than I went in for because their stock of wine is so interesting. read more

Joe is the man!!! Came in on a random Friday to buy some wine little bit. I know Joe was sitting there with a bottle ready to blow my mind. He offered me a Pinot Noir tasting, and although I was relatively apprehensive apprehensive, I folded and decided to join in on the party and little did I know in the course of the next 2 1/2 hours he would blow my mind with the varieties and education around Pinot Noir, old wine versus wine and just Adapted all of his knowledge to fit my understanding of wine. Truly awesome experience. An awesome community staff and local clients that really come and bring the vibe to a very unique and special place. That will forever be my new wine shop. read more

Beautiful cozy new wine bar with sweet owners, great selection and yummmmy cheese plates. Definitely a new local hang for us!

A friend of mine sent me a text on a Thursday evening saying that he needed a favor. He lives in Wisconsin but wanted a bottle of the recently released Arrogant Bastard Whiskey from Stone Brewing (based in So Cal). He sent me a link to two places in Pasadena that supposedly had it. One was a bar and the other was Total Wine. I checked Total Wine's website and it came up as not available, so I went to Stone Brewing's site to see what other places might carry it. After checking a few online and having no luck I decided to call a few local liquor stores the next day to see if they had any in stock. I made a few calls and got the same response, "I'm sorry, we sold out immediately." I was about ready to give up but decided to give Vendome a shot. Debbie answered and I asked if they had it. She put me on hold to check. When she returned she said, "We have one bottle left. I can only hold it for you for an hour." Ugh! I told her I was at work and would not be able to get there in an hour. She said I could pay for it over the phone and she'd hold it for me until I could come in and get it. Perfect! When I arrived, Debbie was waiting for me with my prized bottle. She was very sweet, and I was grateful for her help. (I didn't want to let my friend down.) The place has a large selection of wines, beer, spirits and cigars. I have to go back to browse around and see what other rare finds I might come across. They also have a small bar area for beer and wine tastings, which I'm looking forward to checking out when they resume again. Thank you so much Debbie for saving the day! My friend is very happy. Tip: There is a parking lot in front and all the proper precautions for social distancing were taken. read more

I love coming here for wine. The service is great and the prices are as equally good. They have a lot of Sauvignon Blanc choices.

Small liquor store with huge selection. Pretty impressive array of wines and great representation of foreign beers (especially the German) as well as local craft. The owners were very accommodating to pull 2 of the 3 left of the Carroll Shelby Vodka so that was a very appreciated gesture for us Coloradans. Interesting yet simple display of Mary Jane paraphernalia too. Mixin it up! read more

Pricy, AND... The staff here is very hit or miss. I came in here asking what certain things taste like, and they weren't really helpful. The guy should have said, "let me get someone to help you who knows a little bit more about this than I do." That would have been acceptable. The guy that "sort of" pointed me in the right direction knew where to point me, he just didn't know anything about what he was pointing to. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't asking for anything fancy. It was just basic liqueurs that I had heard things about and wanted to try. AND, Honestly, I noticed their prices are about 20% higher than the chain stores like Total Wine. Some things even 30% more expensive. So for those reasons, I gave this place three stars. Honestly, if I had to get a really specialty something or other, and I was shopping around, and this place had the best price in town, maybe, and that's a big, huge Maybe, I might have to return to the store to buy it... factoring in the cost of driving around, all the gas, sitting in traffic, Etc So is it worth it? You'll have to decide for yourself. Take it or leave it. If this is your local wine spot that's two blocks from your house, go for it. But if you're going to haul in a huge stash of stuff trying to restock your liquor cabinet, you might want to think about taking a little extra time to go to one of the bigger chains. Sorry, not sorry. I just tell it like it is. read more

If you make less than 200k a year I would avoid this place. They mark up wine like they're selling it at a restaurant and beer like it's being served in a bar. They claim it's because they're a mom and pop shop but that's not true. Mission Wine and Spirits or Top Line Wine in Glendale will give you better options at a reasonable price. read more

I picture Vendome as a private bevmo. When I mean private, I mean its really nice! Visited Vendome on a Saturday with a buddy for a beer tasting. I had no idea there was a liquor store that had such types of tasting. It was great! The main brewery from the tasting was Almanac and some Frog Town. Both were delicious. There were others on the list of the day that I haven't tried as well. So we tried them all! Browsing the store I noticed there were craft beers from all over not to mention the typical brands you can find at the market. Was pretty impressed by the selection. They do sell hard liquor as well and have a nice variety of different types of poison. For the tasting there was a bar area where people would gather. Looks as if this place has regular and they bring beers of their own to share or show off. Not my ideal place to gather to drink but that group looked fun. You are able to make a purchase of beer that they sell and drink it at the bar. Only one rule is, you will need the host to pour you. Parking: Private lot VERDICT: Rinse and repeat read more

Joe is just fantastic and Dave is very kind! They know so much about wines and invited me to their wine tasting -- which was sold out!

This is an amazing find! I have been going there for years for their beer and wine tastings! Everyone there is very knowledgeable and they strive to honor customer requests. Their tastings are always great fun! read more

Vendome Wines and Spirits - Keeping our favorite wine house safe. Keep up the support more wine to come. - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Vendome is more than your typical liquor store! It's a nice spot in Toluca Lake for wine and beer afficionado-s. We've shopping at this store for years, many years. First, as a new transplant from Europe in search of brands of beer I used to drink back in the Old World. And they had a decent selection when no one knew what Stella Artois is in US! Of course, nowadays, their selection is better and better. The wine variety is great as well. We were looking for specific brands after wine tasting in Santa Inez Valley and they had some of them, to our surprise and delight! We got some for gifting as well. Parking is decent, the store is pretty big, prices are a tad high. But it's fun to shop here and try new wines, look for specific brands and varieties. Or a nice bottle to offer as a gift! A great place to keep going back to! read more

Super Amazing & wide selection of alcohol & liquor. The staff is very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, & helpful. Very$$$$pricey. However, I suppose you're paying for the extensive selection & great service through the noticeably steep price tag on most bottles. read more

I love coming to this place and experiencing the wine tasting. This liquor store boasts a small area where you can actually sit down to taste wines. The tastings are anywhere from one dollar per taste up to three dollars per taste. The parking can be tricky because it is a liquor store and the parking typically is for customers coming to purchase spirits. So you may have to park on the street if you're coming to do wine-tasting. A very pleasant experience! If you are looking for wine tasting close to home in the evening, I would definitely would recommend this place. read more

Came here to pick up a few things and check out the place. They have a large selection and great customer service. Joseph was super friendly and helpful in recommending a Pinot Grigio to try. Some of their products are things I've never seen at other well-known liquor franchises. Hoping to come back here again. Being just shy of a five star rating is based on the prices of some of their products (but not all). Would be cool if they price matched or honored BevMo coupons. read more

Vendome Wines and Spirits - Stocking up - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a family owned business, and I understand their prices may be higher than the bigger chain stores, and I'm okay with that. What I'm not okay with is selling expired items and not informing the consumer. I'm no beer cicerone, but I do like trying new beers when I get a chance, and this place has ALOT to choose from. But "best before" dates are there for a reason. I'll accept fault for not checking before I purchased, but I trusted this place would be on top of this. I was pretty disappointed when the beer I purchased had expired 6 months prior. Some places will bring it to your attention and sell the product at a discounted price and it's on you if you want to buy, but not this place! I did go back to make sure this was a one-off. Unfortunately, I found other beer past their "best before" date and others that had been canned as far back as 2020!!! There is absolutely no way this beer is still good to consume. Do better, Vendome! Buyer beware! read more

Great cigar knowledge and excellent customer service when you need help. Bob was fantastic, very informative and helpful. He made a very special order of cigars with zero hassle. The liquor stock was not quite as impressive but they said they could order just about anything. Definitely a place for some good cigar and wine knowledge. I will be back! read more

Vendome Wines and Spirits - Vendome Beer & Wine tasting area! - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Vendome Toluca Lakes has one of the best craft beer selection that I've seen in the LA-area. I'm moved from Connecticut to Los Angeles about 5 years ago and was shocked to find beers from two beloved Connecticut breweries- Fat Orange Cat and Two Roads- which do not have national distribution and have not seen outside of Connecticut. I didn't pick any up, but they also had cans of The Alchemist Heady Topper and The Alchemist Focal Banger available to purchase, which are some of the highest-rated beers on Beer Advocate and are extremely difficult to get outside of New England. I'm not a big wine drinker, but they seemed to have an extensive wine selection. Wasn't overly impressed with their liquor offerings, but they do have all the classics- just not nearly the offerings one of the big box stores would have. For beer though, it's hard to beat. read more

Bad customer service from cashier. The door opens so I go in only to be told " unless I know what I want to get then I don't need to walk around". If your store is closed your door should be locked, if anyone comes in there should be a polite warning that the store is closed and/or closing. I walked out because I refuse to give my money to people with attitudes, communication and respect is easy. read more

Pleasant enough, and helpful staff. But VERY expensive! I was in a rush and needed boubon and rye. I was honestly shocked by the high prices. Learned my lesson. They seemed to have a large wine selection -- so maybe good for that? read more

I called this evening to ask if they had any spare cardboard boxes and David told me yes and to come on by at my convenience. They were close to the exit and I was able to pick out a few that would work for my move. I am very grateful to them. Another guy working the check out showed me how to stack the boxes to carry them out easier !! Fun little adventure finding moving boxes instead of buying them ! Incredible and attentive staff. read more

Don't go anywhere else for wine. Vendome has such a huge selection and the most helpful people. They have a bar with tastings and even a cigar room but my favorite part of my last visit was meeting Joseph. After walking the isles and letting my indecisive nature take over I finally asked for some help. Joseph knew exactly what I needed. He pointed me in the direction of some new to me wines and gave me some tips that have greatly improved my experience with wine. No more wasted wine at my house and now I get to drink better wine. I'm super pleased and grateful. Thank you Joseph!! read more

Great selection of wines and the owner is very helpful. He is absolutely knowledgeable about what he has stocked. He asked a variety of questions to ensure that he was guiding me, but without being pushy. He seemed to really enjoy his work and made several recommendations. The wines I purchased were exactly as he described them. There is a small parking lot but it was nearly full when I was there. read more

I've lived in this community for over 20 years, and discovered this "Liquor"Store, almost immediately! When working with California Land Title Insurance Company, in the heart of Universal City, every Thursday, late afternoons, the Company, had "Bar Night," and carts of liquor were rolled in by the great & friendly guys at Vendom's. I shopped there often because of the friendly service and the unique & creative products displayed and available for purchase. Recently, due to the coronavirus lock-down, I called to inquire if they delivered. YES, and with no lengthy process, THE SAME DAY!!! Great attitudes and service. Try it - you'll like it! read more

The man that I asked for help from was incredibly rude to me and initially outright refused to help me. This was my second time here and I'm probably never coming back. The first time I was helped out by an older gentlemen who was amazingly kind. I was looking for wine under 10 dollars because I was going to buy a lot for my nail salon down the street and the gentleman went above and beyond to find the best value as well as the best wine for my needs. I came in today and asked the man up front where I can find the same type of wine and he not only heard me, but completely ignored me. I had to ask a second time and he seemed so annoyed that I even bothered him. I asked him if there was anyone else that works there that can help me out, and he said he can call someone but it wont make a difference. I just needed help looking for wine at a liquor store from the clerk whose job is to help customers! He finally helped me find the wine that I was looking for after I nearly begged him in desperation, and out of instinct I asked, "is this the same wine I got last time?" He looked at me and snapped, "I don't know what you got." I just said never mind, paid for my one bottle and left very unhappy. read more
