    Kevin (the owner) has opened a much-needed wine bistro in the neighborhood. I like the concept of buying wine bottles without the extra corkage fee. He has a very balanced collection of varietals and the house wine selection is excellent. Taylor is a great server and becoming more knowledable regarding wine recommendations. Food choices are good and well prepared, particularly the flatbreads. Been to many wine bistros in St. Pete and Exquisite is quickly becoming my favorite!

    Brooke was such a doll! We had a great 3-item board paired with our wine. We’ll be back for a tasting night!

    Exquisite Bistro is easily one of the best wine bars in St. Pete. The wine selection is top-tier, the atmosphere is inviting, and the food is incredible—Chef Brandon’s dishes pair perfectly with whatever you’re drinking. Kevin and Brooke make the experience even better with their hospitality and knowledge, making you feel right at home. Whether you’re there for happy hour or a laid-back night out, this place is always a great choice.
