Vino Veritas

Best wine bar/ shop/ service in Portland! This is gem of a spot and the owner is so knowledgeable and friendly. The flights of wine are a delight, the environment is cozy and relaxed with plenty of space to spread out. It's a neighborhood spot and a destination for great wine (also a wonderful place to get a quick drink if you're waiting for a table nearby). The fact that it's not inspired by instagram trends is a major plus, it'll put you in a wonderful trance where you connect and make eye contact and completely forget about your phone. Plus the lighting is nice. It's already been the location of some of my best conversations in 2024-and best glasses of wine. Winning without even seeming to try! GEM.

I really enjoyed the space and my time here. The service and music was great. They have live music (I was here on a Sunday). And they have a nice outdoor space to enjoy our spectacular Oregon summers.

The new owners are incredibly friendly and expedient. The wind selection is fantastic and the appetizer selection was fresh and generous. We had so much fun exploring a few wines and eating 3 appetizers and didn't need to go to dinner after all. Thank you!

This pains me to write as this used to be my favorite wine bar in Portland. I came in last night for the first time since the ownership has changed, and while the flights were still good, I believe the pours may be a bit smaller. Two of the bigger disappointments, however, were the service and the charcuterie board. I loved the old combo charcuterie board; it was $25 and full of yummies including a variety of salamis. Now a combo charcuterie board is $36 and does not have as good of stuff on it. The service was extremely slow and once they got busy we waited awhile for a second pour. I did like the focaccia bread and olives.

Stopped by for one glass of wine and absolutely loved the cute wine bar. The big windows can be fully opened so it changes into a nice continuous space with the street seatings. We missed the live music as it was getting started. Would love to come back and sit for much longer.

I didn't think I could love Vino Veritas more, but here we are! Vino Veritas is my neighborhood wine shop. I've been dropping in for bottle purchases since early spring 2020 (when the pandemic struck). The guys who work here - all somms - are extremely friendly and helpful. If you like to talk wine, they'll chat you up and point you in the right direction.I stopped by for "dine-in" service for the first time recently and was pleasantly surprised to see a newly constructed patio out front! Very reasonably priced glass pours and the pick-three tasting flight for $16 is such a deal. The pours are very generous too. The combo board (cheese/charcuterie) is huge and has a really nice assortment. I'm told that they're weathering the patio and installing lights and heaters. I'm planning to come back more often this winter to enjoy the patio and give them all my money!

I came here today for happy hour with coworkers and fell in love with the cozy atmosphere, great HH deals with $6 red, white, or Rosé wines and well curated charcuterie and cheese boards. It's still a hidden gem and for most of the night, we were the only patrons which we didn't mind. Trevor, our host, was very obliging, especially when one of my co-workers accidentally spilled her almost full glass and replaced it free if charge. They have bottles for very reasonable prices (I bought a portuguese red for $11). There's also seating for small and medium sized groups. I loved the atmosphere here and will definitely return!

Have been here many ,many times ... mostly for the jazz! Recently went in and ordered a glass of Chardonnay . Big beautiful glass arrived with a little taste in it! The new owners are now serving 3oz pours for a mere $14!!! Although the wine was good... c'mon people! No house wine options??? just 3oz or 5 oz ($25) pours!!!More food choices... got the charcuterie platter... cheese was great, meat was poor! But wouldn't order it again. Sadly one of my favorite places to hear music will no longer get my business .

Fantastic wine, service and ambiance. Features local live music and owners are welcome extremely knowledgeable about wine. Highly recommend and will be coming back

Almost every wine here is delicious, depending on your taste preference. Who ever curates these wines know what they are doing! The snack plates are tasty as well. We've come back several times!!
