Great Wine Bar, always solid – This is probably my favorite wine bar in Houston. The staff is incredibly helpful and they have some great wines to choose from. The ambience inside is really neat, but can be a little loud at times. Prices are reasonable too. Only real drawback is that it is in a pretty sketchy area, but I'd go to this one over Max's Cova, or the Tasting Room any day.
Good Selection Great Chocolates – The corkscrew has a completely unpretentious vibe that lends to its charm. Trendy sofas in the lounge, order in food from local bistros. The walls sport messages about overindulgence that cant help but remind one the true reason why they?re there. The wait staff are eye candy for the fellas which will keep em coming on a Saturday night so don?t expect to get in. On the weekends come early or don?t come at all. Maybe head over to the Tasting room where there is slightly more seating and a qui... read more
Come here to chill – If you're looking for an unpretentious, relaxed wine bar go to the Corkscrew! Ask the staff for recommendations - they'll give you great ones! There are two main rooms, one with beautiful mosaic tiled table tops and wooden chairs, and another with comfortably couches, big cushy chairs and coffee tables. The latter of the two rooms is dimly lit and very romantic, but it can get noisy when it's packed. There are also a few tables outside. I haven't had the truffles, but try the Spanish mild cheese plate - ... read more
Relaxed Atmosphere – This is a great wine place! It is not too stuffy like some wine bars. Very relaxed atmosphere, and great people. At some of the newer wine places, it can get too crowded to even hear yourself think.... this place is a great place to unwind with a nice glass of wine. Highly recommended.
Favorite Wine Bar in Houston – My girlfriend took me here for my birthday, and since then it has become my favorite wine bar in Houston. There is just so much to appreicate about the wine bar, that it will have you coming back for more. From the entertaining quotes on the wall, the cheese platters, large wine list, comfy romantic lounge area, and a very hospitable staff. The staff will help you find what you are looking for in a wine by letting you have free tastes (some places charged me before for every taste) until you fi... read more
The truffles are to food what Thoreau is to Lit. – Can you say Awesome?!!!! This is the place to be! Atmosphere, great wine, great company and lots of ambiance. How can one go wrong? This place also has WiFi, so forget the coffee shops of old... get your net on here. Possibly the finest selection of wine and by far the best service in town. The truffles, all handcrafted in Houston, are delictible. (!) A definite Must do.
one of my fav wine bars in houston – love the ambience and wine/cheese selections! and the humorous wine quotes dotted along the walls! there's a seperate room cloaked in a whole different ambience from the wine bar ... once you step into this room you are immediately greeted with candle-lit tables flanked with comfy couches and stars dancing above you ... a dim room with a touch of mystery, romanticism, and surrealism. comfortable, laid-back, and different. great place to take a date ... or enjoy the company of a group of f... read more
Neat Place – This is a great date place. Wine options are very good and reasonable. The chocolate truffles were a bit pricey and below average. Go for wine and comfy atmosphere, you will not be dissappointed.
Very nice – This is a great after work escape to sit down, relax, and enjoy a great selection of wines. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. My wife and I have made this a frequent stop. Great place!
