    Nice spot especially in good weather, where you can sit outside and sip in style. Plenty of choices for the picky people. I had a nice Merlot-Malbec blend since they were out of the straight Malbec. This is a wine place so eat beforehand. Or after. Or both. I was stopping by "between meals". You even get a glimpse of the harbor if you focus your eyes really hard. It's walkable from most National Harbor locations (this is an inside joke for all you National Harborites that know everything is walkable in this pop-up town). The server was friendly and helpful, and it's a nice place to return again and again.

    16,000 steps later, I finished a rather engaging and physically taxing Amazing Race event in National Harbor! At its end, my friend mentioned the new wine bar, and I remembered seeing it on my previous visit before it opened! Well it is open now, and we decided to stop in! In love with the decor, it's very inviting. There are a lot of floral notes to it, and the music is quite chill. The vibe screams summer, but I would be happy to drop by the place any time of year. My friend and I each got a wine flight -- my friend went with sweet wines, and I decided to go for the staff favorites. I love how when the flights are served, they left the bottles as well for informational purposes. I loved the pinot grigio and rose that I had! The red blend was good too, but not quite as refreshing as the others... guess it was because of the weather, haha! All the while, my friend and I shared some delicious truffle popcorn (they have light bites), listened to great music, and chatted with the super friendly staff. They also happened to be having a private launch party for their patio.... I'm looking forward to trying that out and exploring more of the menu in the near future. Thank you Rachel for taking care of us!

    I haven't been to National Harbor for a while but I came out for an event and this spot is so cute! They have a great selection of wines and also offer a few slushee options for non wine drinkers. Since I was there for an event I purchased a flight and a flatbread pizza. As far as the food this is not the wine bar you want to show up super hungry just because the food options are minimal, but you're in National Harbor, plenty of food options all around. Come here for the wine! The sommeliers are great and really take the time to give you a great wine tasting experience complete with some wine education. Doc is the general manager there and he greets everyone and makes you feel welcome. It is a beautifully decorated space in a great location right across from Silver Diner and right down the street from the parking garage.

    Sweet wine flight

    First time coming here and had really good service while sitting at the bar. It's a small wine bar but they have different flights to choose from as well as a variety of wines to choose from if you'd like to order a bottle or glass. I ordered the sweet flight and my husband ordered the red flight and a glass of Portuguese red wine.

    I attended the Billecart - Salmon Champagne Tasting here yesterday and wow what a great event, at such a beautiful place. The inside of the wine bar is very beautiful and inviting, I was so glad that I came. They have a patio that is the perfect touch. What a great addition to the Harbor!

    Stopped by on Sunday afternoon after finding this wine bar online. Did not order any food, but we did have a flight and then ordered a bottle. The staff was extremely helpful and welcoming. That afternoon, they were hosting a permanent jewelry pop-up by Linked. Their company's customer service was also excellent. I will definitely be back to enjoy more wine and try their small bites.

    V-NO @ The Harbor is a great atmosphere I recommend this place. The wine is excellent my favorite is the popcorn. Delicious customer service brilliant perfect for a girls night out and date. I give this place five stars. PS make sure to take selfies in the restroom it's to die for

    A TO Z Riesling. Light and sweet. Yum

    Everything was amazing. The owners were very welcoming, definitely elevated our experience. The wine was delicious. I loved everything I tasted. That sparkling Malbec though. Get it. Sooooo good. The decor and ambiance are top notch. I would go back regularly if we lived closer.

    Delicious wine and cheese. Staff was very friendly and the outdoor area was so nice on a sunny day!

    They ran out of cheese plates but the server/bartender was super nice. They have a good variety for flights .

    This is really what the National Harbor needed. Not only is it a wine bar, but its a black woman owned wine bar! I went in on a weekend afternoon and it was super vibey. Good music, good ambiance and great people. They have a large selection of wines and I really like their flight offerings as it allows you to try a few things. They honestly won me over with the slushy because like who doesn't love a good spiked slushy on a warm day?! They have a little patio area as well as a bar and some tables inside, definitely a cute spot to go with friends, a boo or solo.

Booking was super easy and once that was done, I received regular emails from Vino 301 and texts until the day of the tour. We were picked up this past Saturday (4/20) at the appointed location and time. We boarded a very well appointed van with about 4 rows of seats that accommodated us all. I felt very safe on the rides to and from the wineries. Our host and driver were super friendly and treated us like royalty. Prior to arriving at each venue, we were provided some background and things we should know in advance. She more or less herded us from place to place, which was actually quite comforting. I felt very well taken care of AND seen as I was the only one on the tour not drinking, but I was provided water and other beverages over the course of the day. Oh, and the lunch we received was AMAZING. So much food! I had the roast beef BLT, which came with a bag of chips, pasta salad, and a dessert. Definitely recommend!

Since we had our little girl with us, she made sure her chicken tenders came out before the rest of our food without us even having to ask. It was such a thoughtful touch and definitely appreciated. She checked on us throughout the meal, but never so much that it felt overbearing. We decided to try the chef's selection of oysters, and Tiffany walked us through each one. They were absolutely delicious! I'll definitely be coming back for happy hour because I need those oysters again. I ordered the crab cake sandwich, and it was perfection. It was packed with lump crab meat and paired with crispy shoestring fries, which I absolutely loved. The only thing that wasn't my favorite was the margarita. It leaned a little sweeter than I personally prefer, but that certainly wouldn't keep me from coming back. The atmosphere was really nice, and even though we sat inside, the restaurant was busy because of the beautiful weather. We saw several people waiting for tables, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation, especially on a nice evening or over the weekend. Overall, we had a wonderful experience with great food, excellent service, and we'll definitely be back.

Located just off the bustle of King St., Brut sits unassumingly among the Old Town townhomes. You could easily walk past, and not notice it at all. But, if you've dialed in Brut as your destination, be prepared to step in to an oenophile's wet dream. The establishment is both a bottle shop and a wine bar. Every bottle in the joint is carefully curated. There is no junk...no fluff...no quid to subsidize quo...all excellence, from any country or region your heart may desire. Do your Christmas shopping here, for sure. That shopping is going to make you thirsty, so pony up to the small but well appointed bar. Its no easy thing to find a bar with a good "wine by the glass" list, but Brut manages that task with ease. From your sauvignon blancs, through the pinots, to full bodied reds...take a flight of fancy, and walk home well fortified. Since the bar is small, and seats are at a premium, the owner Dustin does a masterful job of weeding out the Riff-raff. Trust me when I say that watching it is far better than TV. I cannot recommend this cool little spot more highly. Maybe I'll see ya there sometime!

    Giving 4 stars because the selection was good, staff was knowledgeable, and the actual wine and…read morecheese we had was quite nice. It's a little pricey relative to places like Verre wine bar in Courthouse or area Vineyards. I noticed they had the Valravn cab sauv and it was A $20 glass but I have seen it for several dollars less at Verre and elsewhere. However, these were really large pours. So it may be their philosophy to have someone order/pay once and get a lot then having to constantly go back for more. Which is great if you value simplicity but less so if you want variety. I also didn't see flight options, though maybe I missed them. All in all it came out to $83 for 2 glasses of red wine and a cheese plate with 5 cheeses. However they brought bread refills - not sure if it's just that the plate was priced for unlimited bread or if we were being charged for more bread each time and that is what increased the price. Service was a little lax. Again not a bad thing, depends on your preference. When we got their attention they were on it. It resulted in being completely unrushed and unpressured which I appreciate. But my friend was starving and under those conditions we would have liked someone to come take our food order sooner. Vibe is chill. I wouldn't say it's as sexy as others do. When we arrived the lights were fairly bright and then they turned them down and started putting out candles while we were there so that may have been it. That was around 7 or 8 if you are gaming this out for a date. We were the 6pm crowd so maybe they were intentionally going for a less sexy vibe for the benefit of the after work drinks with friends types. I don't recall music. Note also they seem to really focus on imported wines more so than local. I don't thibk there was any local VA wine on the menu. All in all, if you need a wine place in the area then it is totally worth stopping by, especially if you like the specific approach described above. Is it a wine bar I would go out of my way for given that there are a bunch in different neighborhoods around DC? Probably not unless I was specifically looking for this kind of imported wine menu or large pours. This is a no if you are specifically looking for flights or to otherwise try a bunch of different wines.

    (2 out of 5 stars)…read more This is a difficult review to write because the Sonoma Cellar used to be one of my favorite spots in Old Town Alexandria. I was aware the ownership had changed some time ago, but this was my first opportunity to return and see how things had kind of evolved. The good news is that they are pet friendly, which allowed us to bring our puppy, Chewie. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience was disappointing. The service was painfully, excruciatingly slow. The staff members were polite though, and genuinely trying to help, but they simply appeared unprepared. When we asked for recommendations or information related to the wines, we received very little guidance. One gentleman eventually admitted that he was just filling in and didn't really know the wines at all. Understandable, but not the experience I was going for. The water bottle for the table served to us was room temperature, which felt odd, especially on a hot day while sitting outdoors. The wine tasting was a major disappointment compared to what Sonoma Cellar used to offer, and the overall wine selection appeared to me at least, noticeably smaller than I remembered. I was also disappointed to discover that Sonoma Cellar has adopted the increasingly common practice of adding a 3% credit card surcharge. I didn't notice any clear disclosure beforehand, and these types of fees always leave a bad impression. I know I'm a bit picky with those, but still. The establishment was likely dealing with staffing issues on the day we visited, but the overall experience felt like a shadow of what this place used to be. What used to be one of my favorite wine stops in Old Town has clearly diminished in both service and selection. We left disappointed and, sadly, don't expect to return. Chewie agreed.
