Corkscrew Wine & Cheese

The best wine bar in Midtown-Blackstone. Great staff, amazing patio, fun events and a full bar. The private space is perfect, we had my daughter's Bridal Shower there and everyone was very complimentary.

This place as been on my list for YEARS and i've finally accomplished on crossing it off (but not for good). The menu makes it so hard to pick as every wine or cocktail sounds delish. The staff is as kind and helpful in navigating what you want and providing great suggestions. The food was surprisingly DELISH too. I will say a little pricey for smaller portions considering "to share" but the quality and flavor makes it well worth (i'll just have to order one for my own next time ;).

I recently hosted a bridal shower for my best friend at Corkscrew and everything was just perfect. Jessica and Sydney were a dream to work with in all the planning (and very patient with my five thousand questions)! Caitlyn (sorry if I misspelled that) was our server for the event and she went above and beyond to take care of us. The private event space is such a cute spot and it overlooks the patio, which gave such chill but elegant vibes. The catering menu had a diverse food and beverage selection and was priced very reasonably for the quality and quantity of what we received. I was planning the event from across the country and was only in town for the weekend, but we had such a great time at the shower that a bunch of our group ended up coming back to Corkscrew two more times that weekend just so we could try more of the regular food and bevvy menu. The baked brie, the frose, the hot spiced cider, and the fig & pig bruschetta were standouts to us. This will definitely be a stop for me everytime I'm back in Omaha from here on out.

This was my first time at the Corkscrew Wine and Cheese. I have to say, it was a great first impression. I loved the chill atmosphere out on the patio. I am normally pretty particular about food and especially drinks, but the Frose was delicious. Not too sweet, not too strong. I also had the Red Pepper Hummus dish, and it was pretty great, too. The Frose paired nicely with it, and the presentation was lovely. I would have scored this a 5 out of 5, but the prices are a little high for what you get in my opinion. Aside from the pricing, it was a great experience, and though it was very busy, our server was attentive and sweet. I will be back.

I love this place for many reasons. I like the appetizers, the outdoor patio scene, and the unique and sometimes healthier options. I've found the servers to be helpful and appreciate their efforts to remain open to all ages without making their place prejudiced to the young only. Straight people welcome.

People Watching | Variety | Starter/FinisherPeople Watching - hands down one of the best people-watching spots in Omaha. Sitting on the patio provides great entertainment watching people explore the Dundee area.Variety - Their wine list is pretty impressive. We had their frose which was tasty and a great deal was given the price point. Overall, it is an impressive place if you want to explore wines from various regions and price points. Starter/finisher - This is not a place to plan your night around. Instead, it is a great place to either start or end your night. It is pretty small, maybe fits 40-50 people max between the inside and outside. Why not 5 stars?- Their menu isn't the greatest. Therefore, it is just a place to vibe during the afternoon, before you start your night, or as your night is winding down. Therefore, it doesn't have an "OMG YOU HAVE TO GO" quality. Pro Tip: There is limited street parking and no parking lots within 2 blocks. So, be sure to add 10 minutes to your search.

I have been to this Blackstone locations several times and it is always a good time! If the weather is nice you MUST sit outside! They have a beautiful patio! The inside is more dark and intimate. Its perfect for a date night. They have small plate food options. I highly recommend trying the meatball flat bread!

I should probably mention... I don't drink alcohol... So this review won't mention that ha!My date and I came in as part of a little Blackstone crawl we stitched together, and we are so glad we added it to the list for the day. We specifically came for a cheese board and a complimentary truffle parmesan popcorn (thanks Yelp check-in offer!) The pairings this time:Pesto cheese with marinated grapes (my date's fave)Smoked blue cheese with an onion jam (my fave)??? With honey walnutsThey were each wonderful, and we happily polished it off with 0 regret. The popcorn was not exactly what I'd expected, but it was a unique take, I was glad to try it. The have much larger space than I'd anticipated, so plenty of room to stretch your legs, spread out with a small crew, etc. They also have a few seating options out back with fire pits, if it's a chilly evening. Preston was the one man show (as far as wait staff goes) and he was prompt, helpful, and very attentive! We were very pleased with his service.

Simple yet elegant ambiance, delicious food and wine, friendly , knowledgeable staff. Attended a private birthday party there and it was the perfect setting.

What a bummer. Really wanted to like the place. They towed my friends car...while she was eating there!! They did nothing to remediate the problem. No compensation, and they did not get her car back for her. They were "very sorry" though...
