Wine Gallery

Came here on a whim with my wife to have a night cap celebrating our wedding anniversary. Bread pudding was pretty good and the dessert wine I got was decent. My qualms though lies in the fact that when I tried looking up where I could get a bottle of the exact same wine, I realized how much of a markup this place charged for a 4oz pour ($16 vs a bottle costing $22 at wine shops)..I was also less than pleased to find that a credit card surcharge was added to the bill but this was not mentioned anywhere at all on the menu. Also found it weird that the surcharge was added even before the owner knew I was going to pay by card.

Went there on Valentine's Day because our previous plans were ruined. They served us wine promptly, live music was playing, and not packed at all. I thought maybe tonight is going to end great and this can be where we have our engagement celebration!!! Over an 1hr wait the waitress never can by our table again. No, the place wasn't packed and everyone else in the establishment was served. We asked for our check and left. Do better!

Solid charcuterie plates and awesome wine (to take home) deals!Can't speak to the food, but would come back if not in a rush (service on the slow side, they are a mom and pop shop so not well staffed)

Went here for a quick glass to celebrate my wife's new job. No one in the place so we chatted it up with the owner. Based on the context of our conversation, I asked the owner if he knew my neighbor, a person whom I've known for 20 years and has become a family friend. He responded "yes and she's b*itch". His reply was incredibly unprofessional and crass. Maybe he was in a bad mood because his wine bar was empty. Mind you we only had 1 glass of wine so this wasn't a drunken situation. Would never go back here, and I recommend you don't either.

We went when the Eve Jazz Quartet played. Everything was perfect.Baked Halloumi and the Feta & Olive Plate tasted like nothing we'd had before. The warm pitta itself was so tasty. We got the least expensive bottle of wine, a 2018 Zinfandel, and to our surprise it was excellent wine.The Eve Jazz Quartet was Yoshi's worthy; like listening to KCSM, but live.Lastly, the ambiance is perfect. It's like sitting in a (really nice) living room.

We decided to try out a new wine place this weekend as the sun was finally out and we are glad to have discovered Wine Gallery. We went in late afternoon and it was cozy and calm. The wine and rosé we got were good recommendations. The artichoke dip was pretty tasty and so were the olives. Anna was great at ensuring we had a good time and she even brought us a deck of Uno cards to play.Turns out they have live music in the evenings on certain days.All in all I'd recommend Wine Gallery and we look forward to returning soon.

We came here about about 45 min before closing and tried the $36 Cabernet Sauvignon tasting. I loved the tasting because each wine presented was really unique from the other; all of them tasted high quality. You get to experience the following flavors: jammy/sweet, earthy, a combined sweet & earthy, and a smooth vegetal red. The crowd favorite was the sweet & earthy but my favorite was the more vegetal one. The interior of the wine bar was beautiful, luxe, and cozy. The host was friendly and seemed to love wine. I'd love to come back and try more of their flights and maybe some food next time.

HOLY COW. I'm laughing right now after reading the most recent review by L D. Literally, a mirror of our experience earlier tonight. I've been eyeing this place for months. My husband and I are wine lovers and thought this place would be great for a date night away from our kids. So, tonight was the night. Nana was in town, and I needed a drink because I had a tough emotional postpartum day. Moms, if you know, you know. Before you assume, this review is not based on my emotions. I held it together very well. It was my husband, who was outspoken.This place opened at 5PM, and we arrived at 5:35pm. We were the third couple. The owner greeted us and said we can sit anywhere we wanted. Great! He said he'll be right with us. We ordered two flights, bratswurst and truffle popcorn. He said the food might take a little while because he's by himself. No problem. I feel bad for the guy, so I gave him some slack. He came back 10-12 minutes later with ONE flight for my husband. Then next 5 mins came back with popcorn. My husband gently reminded him, "oh, and my wife has a flight also." He said, "Yes, I know." I had a smile the entire time and told my husband to give him some slack. But, honestly, how hard is it to pour 3 glasses of tasting? I had to drink some of my husband's tasting while waiting. Then the guy started to chat with the couple at bar for 15 mins. He looked at us and told them he got to help other customers. He poured a glass, but it wasn't for me. Passed by us as if we were invisible. My husband most definitely pissed at this point, so he asked, "can we get our wine now?" The owner said "SURE!" wow. No apologies for the wait. Just "sure" as if we asking for water or napkins. After I got my flight (30 mins later), he came back to our table, and said, "sorry, we are out of Bratswurst." I was kinda happy and didn't care if he BS because I didn't want to wait anymore. My husband had some thoughts on his mind that this guy could either be racist or sexist towards me, but I stopped my husband right there. I said, I would never pull those cards out because I am not playing victim. He wasn't rude, nor did he make any remarks. His demeanor was rather, careless. Careless if he loses customers and it wouldn't bother him at all. This business might need a coffin soon if he continues to perform in that manner. I know you're reading this, Mr. Len Moore, bless you. I hope whatever you're going through, shall pass. I had a tough day too, but at least I put on a smile for you.

I am writing to update my review after hearing from the owner. He provided several ways to obtain information about the music and artists. Although I was disappointed that I could not find those details on the website, I learned about a site called AllAboutJazz, which provides lots of information about jazz in the SF Bay Area and which the owner updates regularly. We apparently missed a Bossa/Samba quartet yesterday, which would have brought us out had we known in time. I look forward to visiting the Wine Gallery on a Saturday evening in the near future. I was delighted that the Owner took the time to share this information.

We went here several times. It's so cute. A true wine bar that is so rare in the Bay Area. It's nice and chill and much more comfortable and inviting than the many sub par restaurants in Laurel st. Had a nice enjoyable few visits here. Looking forward to coming here again. Huge difference restaurant and wine bars and this place has a great much needed concept.
