The Most Scrumptious Wine Bars in Arlington

Bovine

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (28)

"When you want a steak that is spiced and cooked to perfection in a relaxed atmosphere you can't get at the chains, you need to plan a visit to Bovine. The service was the best. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of all menu items and his recommendation of the Mac and cheese was spot on. Will be back when I'm in the area"

Addison Café-French bistro

★★★★☆ 4.1 (76) • $$

"This quaint, QUIET and beautiful French restaurant deserves all the stars. My husband and I split the cream of asparagus soup and the steak tournedos dish. Our table enjoyed the smoked salmon and pate appetizers. I have been interested in all things asparagus since some recent travels early in the summer and the soup was so creamy and delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked with a rich delicious brown sauce and very fresh and simply cooked vegetables. The appetizers were also very nice. I had an amazing chocolate cake for dessert that was so decadent. Had to have some nice port along with that as well.The service was absolutely top notch and they had a well curated wine list.Unfortunately, I only took a picture of our wine, but I thought I would share because it was such a nice one."

Piola Italian Restaurant & Garden

★★★★☆ 3.5 (186) • $$$

"Beautiful and cozy local gem. Unique menu and very attentive staff. Feels like a special occasion each time we go. Happy with most of our choices. We all left satisfied and smiling. Say yes to the halibut, caprese salad, martini, ravioli, goat cheese app, and desserts!"

Cafe Duro

★★★★★ 4.5 (78)

"Cafe Duro got my coffee out very quick and it was delicious!Highly recommend any nitro latte here, as well as their pasties."

The Magnolia

★★★★☆ 4 (164) • $$

"Drinks were impeccably crafted, and the presentations were amazing! The ambiance was very warm and welcoming and the staff was very friendly and made us feel right at home. We don't get southern hospitality like this in CA!"

Kostas Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (292) • $$

"Quite unimpressed by this restaurant. My bf and I walked in on a weeknight. There were several takeout orders and two other tables.We ordered right away, two appetizers and two entrees. I enjoyed the calamari and the eggplant dip, the pita is soft and the bread service was nice too. The chicken souvlaki and mousaka are both good, especially the souvlaki. Sides are ok. The meal itself was not wow but priced right.I like the ambiance, it feels like a family restaurant. And the busser is a very nice woman.Coming from someone who has waited tables, I'm docking two stars because the big man host/waiter was not welcoming at all and seemed to have an attitude. Drop slid our plates in front of us like a diner would and walked off, did not acknowledge any time we said thanks, just seemed like he wanted to get off work early but the other tables stayed later than us (we were out by 8:50). Any other Greek restaurant is probably same food quality and price with nicer presentation and friendlier service."

Quartino Ristorante

★★★★☆ 4.2 (275) • $$

"What an awesome place, price and people. Awesome value!We live nearby but normally go to shops legacy. This place is great!"

Mo & Hari's Italian Bistro

★★★★☆ 3.9 (88) • $$

"Updating my review and adding a star. This restaurant is extremely consistent and the food is lovely. Great servers, always super friendly. The amazing server Dusty I mentioned in my first review- is now the general manager. Really love the atmosphere. I still can't believe this place is in Midlothian. I would drive an hour for this food. Original review:It's been a while since we've been here, and honestly- I'm so sad we waited so long to come back. Our waiter Dusty was extremely friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the menu. We came in to try out their happy hour drink specials, but both the food and drinks were great. I had the appetizer sampler with a giant crab cake and 4 large shrimp. Hubby got the Mac, Asparagus, and Creamy Tomato Soup (which may just be the best I've ever tasted). The Margaritas were good- but the German chocolate cake shot I polished off after dinner was amazing! It truly tasted like the classic dessert. So Delish. We will be frequenting this gem more often for sure."

Gallo Nero Italian Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.4 (346) • $$

"My son recommended this place. Came on a Friday e evening and it was busy. We sat down quickly though and server arrived to get our drink orders. Chicken alfredo pizza - not a pizza person but was delicious Chicken rigatoni - daughter said she enjoyed itLobster ravioli- great flavor, like I dipped the free bread in itChicken marsala- son ate it allChicken alfredo- son ate aCalamari- the best, so light"

Salute Wine Bar

★★★★★ 4.9 (18)

"I love this place so much.The finger foods are delicious and the staff is always great. They really enjoy helping you, this makes the experience fun and not intimidating (coming from a person who isn't too familiar with wine)."

400 Gradi

★★★★☆ 4.3 (291) • $$

"Lovely Italian restaurant in downtown Dallas perfect for a date night given the overall ambiance!My fiance and I had a reservation on a Saturday evening and we were seated pretty much immediately once we arrived. Service was great throughout our meal and everything came out in a decently quick manner.We started with the polpette al sugo (meatballs) which came with house-made bread, and both the meatballs and bread were excellent. Then for main entrees, the two of us shared the tagliatelle alla bolognese and vesuvio pizza, both of which were delicious. In particular, we really loved the combination of flavors on the vesuvio pizza which comes with salami, bacon, caramelized onion, and spiced honey -- the perfect blend of sweet, savory, spicy, and umami!"

Mercury Chop House

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (238) • $$$

"I recently went to this restaurant with my leadership team from work and I really enjoyed my meal. This restaurant was unique, It was really dark inside and the menus were huge for how reason. I got a good laugh out of it with my team. We had calamari as a starter and it was not good, it was a bit too chewy for my liking. I ordered the salmon entree with mashed potatoes and cream spinach. I absolutely loved it! It was cooked perfect and tasted delicious to me. My coworkers ordered the braised short rib and did not enjoy it. They said they were cooked too long and the food was bland. The drinks were just ok, I ordered an espresso martini and it was not bad but I would recommend ordering something that you normally get that's not on their cocktail drink menu.Overall, I would say that this restaurant is good for a couples dinner date but I would choose another place if coming with a larger party."

Kirby's Steakhouse

★★★★☆ 3.9 (311) • $$$$

"The food was delicious and cooked perfectly. It was everything that you expect a steakhouse to be. The waiters were very thorough without being intrusive."

La Pizza & La Pasta at Eataly Dallas

★★★★☆ 3.7 (189) • $$

"La Pizza & La Pasta at Eataly Dallas is a genuine Italian restaurant located inside Eataly at NorthPark Center. The menu is full of Italy's most popular dishes and are all delicious. The one flaw is that it's expensive. I mean really expensive. If you want a legitimate Italian meal in a mall, this is your place.My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return)Atmosphere - La Pizza & La Pasta at Eataly Dallas is located in the heart of Eataly Dallas. Surrounded by a well-stocked Italian market, it's has a unique mix of curious shoppers and patrons who want to experience fine Italian cuisine. If on a weekend, it's very busy. Buzzing with people and great energy, you know this is as very popular spot. Be sure you make reservations! 1 Star.Service - The service didn't quite match the quality of the cuisine. Our server really didn't seem to be into serving us. She wasn't bad, she just didn't seem interested. The restaurant was very busy on my Saturday night visit so this may have contributed to the indifference. 1/2 Star. Food - I'm a fan of Neapolitan pizza, and so I ordered the Margherita "A RUOTA DI CARRO". The hearty dough was thin in the middle, allowing the San Marzano sauce and mozzarella and their flavors to shine. You'll want to use a fold method as the middle is thin. I paired this with the Fettucine al Burro. Wow. They will prepare this dish at your table. The fettuccine is mixed and stirred directly in a parmesan wheel. It's super rich and a perfect compliment to my pizza. I ended my meal with the Tiramisu. Nothing to add except that it was delicious. The only flaw in my meal was the bill. Expect to pay $50 per person for your meal. 1 1/2 Stars.Will I Return? - Yes. While La Pizza & La Pasta at Eataly Dallas is really good, it's also really expensive. Even so, I like how I can eat a delicious Italian meal inside of a mall. Yes, I'll be back. 1 Star."

Loveria Caffe

★★★★☆ 4.3 (328) • $$

"Delish! Such a pretty restaurant and patio area. The kids portions were huge. We weren't fans of the bolognese but it was still great. The burrata appetizer was AMAZING! And although$$$ for the poker ravioli (bc I had to try them all) I had leftovers for lunch the next day. All the raviolis were fantastic. I'm already planning my next dinner back. The service was great ."

The Barrel

★★★★☆ 4.1 (111)

"Let's preface this with first! How in the hell did we not know this place was here 5 years living right down the road!

Absolutely spot on descriptions, including the sauces and flavoring of the foods! We choose the Oysters and Deviled Eggs appetizers!What a great recommendation the Oysters were not only fresh ( clean and clear) the sauces sent with them were traditional and very fresh it is apparent in the taste!The deviled Eggs are not your Grandmothers Thanksgiving Eggs they are better just don't tell Grandma..My Wife ordered the smoked Duck meal, judging by how quickly she cleared her plate I can say it was beyond delicious, and she is picky as picky comes.I had the Ribeyes and I am a Beef purist, no sauces just give me the meat!Cooked perfectly, I didn't need a knife this steak was simply amazing, I have had 140.00 and Ounce WAYGU that was not nearly as tasteful and so perfectly cooked as this steak was. The sides were some mashed potatoes and asparagus both flavorful and perfectly paired with this steak. Now I orders three orders of the scallops with my steak as I love scallops, these were not dainty little scallops they were big and tasty. Perfect cook on the scallops seasoned just right still allowing that sea taste to come through!We opted for the homemade Bread pudding, wholly Mother of Mary! This dessert should be illegal it is so absolutely delicious you have to tart it all, you can be completely stuffed you will make room for this dessert!I can not say enough about how well we were treated by the amazing staff, our Waiter Xander was truly an absolute pleasure to speak with, and a consummate professional, his recommendations were spot on!We are planning our next visit and I guarantee you it will not be another five years before we return, so glad we found this amazing spot! To whomever owns this little slice of heaven Thank you kindly for providing this area with such An awesome and well managed establishment!"

"Third visit. Every time is wonderful. Tonight we had Ahi Tartar, Ceasar Salad, and Pizza. All were delicious, fresh, gourmet quality. The wine flight was a tasty treat, as usual. The waiters were very attentive. The atmosphere casual, contemporary, chic. We will be back again."

Saddlerock Wine & Beer

★★★★★ 4.8 (17)

"Charming garden wine bar. The old home turned into a wine bar is a wonderful date night spot. The garden has gorgeous trees and ambient lighting. The view from their back bar at sunset is breathtaking, displaying hues of orange, yellow, and pink. Tasty wine, best value being in a flight. I didn't have the best experience with the service, but everything else made up for it. The food truck also had really delicious options, just make sure you have plenty of time. Thursdays are reserved for trivia, so put together your best team and head over for a fun filled evening!"

Written By The Seasons

★★★★★ 4.5 (226) • $$$

"So, my friend made reservations here for dinner. I quickly went to the website to look at the menu and get an idea of what I wanted.......I wanted everythingHere's my take away. This establishment is very nice. It's like everything is fresh. From farm to table! From the hand towels, appetizers, salads main course, desserts, libations....you can't go wrong. You will need to be prepared to pay as one as there is not individual ticket per person. It wasn't a problem for us because we knew this from reading the menu and it's explained before ordering. The scenery inside and out is so peaceful and picturesque but honestly you kinda forget about all of that because you are enjoying your fellowship over great food. I was able to snag a few pictures before I put my phone away to enjoy just being present in the moment."

We were celebrating our grandsons birthday, he had the Bison Meatloaf, it was yummy as well. They brought him a slice of cake with a sparkler!!! Nice!! Will definitely return!!! Great decor!"

Wine Thief

★★★★☆ 4.3 (25) • $$

"Wine Thief is a cozy little wine bar situated on the first floor of the Omni Hotel. I really love the ambiance as it is usually dimly lit, a nice escape from the brutal Texas heat. For the more temperate fall and spring days, there is patio seating if you want to enjoy your wine alfresco.Since it is in the Omni, expect the prices to be a bit higher then they would at other wine bars. On their website, it looked like they used to offer 1/2 price bottles on certain days of the week but have discontinued that deal. I would appreciate some kind of happy hour special, so I can sample some of the even pricer wines!The staff was friendly and helpful and I witnessed one bartender handle a particularly difficult customer with ease and grace. Bar snacks are available from the neighboring restaurant, but like the wine be prepared to pay a pretty penny for them."

Partenope Ristorante

★★★★☆ 4.4 (519) • $$

"Ordered takeout from Partenope Ristorante, and let me just say--this pizza was phenomenal! The crust had that perfect Neapolitan-style char, crispy on the outside yet light and airy inside. The toppings were fresh and flavorful, with just the right balance of heat and richness. Every bite was packed with deliciousness!Even as takeout, the quality held up perfectly--no soggy crust, just pure, authentic pizza goodness. If you're in Dallas and craving top-tier pizza, this spot is a must! I'll definitely be ordering again."

Ernie's Seafood Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (133) • $$

"I've been coming here since I was a teen!! Love that's it's not a chain and the staff is always welcoming! Now, onto the star of the show - those crab legs! Fresh, succulent, they were an absolute treat for the taste buds. The owners dedication to excellence was evident! Whether you're a seafood lover or simply appreciate good food and great company, Ernie's is a must-visit. Trust me, you'll be thanking yourself later!"

Barcelona Wine Bar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (417) • $$$

"Barcelona wine bar is forever my favorite tapas bar in DallasThe food is always spot on and consistently goodGreat spot to bring friends or family tooLove the lively atmosphereService is always great They do have a happy hour but overall this place is a bit on the pricier. Good place to celebrate at Things I order regularly and recommend: their arugula salad (changes slightly depending on the season), any paella, beef empanadas, croquetas, olive oil cake, white sangria, chicken thighAlthough I always get different things to try and nothing has ever really disappointed Highly recommend this place!"

Woodlands American Grill

★★★★☆ 3.9 (281) • $$

"Leeann was our waitress. What a ray of sunshine. Had a wonderful lunch. Cream of Mushroom soup and the Manhattan Clam Chowder were both amazing. The Turkey Bacon Club highly recommend.
