About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Innovative
  • Great for fine wines
Wine-Ohs has two casual spaces that will provide you with a unique experience whether you visit one or both of them. Wine-Ohs Bistro is a casual wine bar with food that suits our award winning wine list . Our menu changes seasonally. We have a full bar selection and feature local and international beers. Downstairs, you'll find the Cellar, our live music venue, which has live music five nights a week. It may be a little hard to find but that gives it a speakeasy vibe reminiscent of clubs in New York or Chicago. To get to the Cellar, enter through the alley door. Please note we do not take reservations in the Cellar -- seating is first come, first serve. Become one of the insiders who find themselves saying the first time they enter the Cellar 'I had no idea this was here!' Then tell your friends. . .

    My first time at Wine Ohs and would definitely go back. Small and cozy upstairs with the option of heading into the larger Cellar for live music. Great food and wine cjoices.

    I love this restuarant. I think it is one of the "coolest" vibes out there. I recommend this place to everyone I know. I have had nothing but great food and service there in the past. My recent experience on Valentines Day was not up to that standard, and I felt unsatisfied. HOWEVER, I will be back in hopes that this was just an outlier from my normal visits as I love this place.

    Went on Valentine's Day and the kitchen must've been overwhelmed! Waited 2 hours for our appetizers to arrive... Our server was great though... gave us a free round of drinks and told us the mains were on the house and kept on checking on us. The ambience and live music down at the cellar were wonderful! The food wasn't bad either. Highly recommend the pork belly! Would come here again but definitely not on a special occasion night such as Valentine's Day..

    Even though they were short staffed, our server Matt or 'Macklemore' was on top of his game and did an amazing job. I'll definitely come back again!

    We were very excited to celebrate Valentines at this restaurant. I must say the SERVICE was very disappointing. It took 2 hours to receive our meal! We arrived at 6:30 and ordered by 6:45. Our steak was served at 8:45pm! The waitress apologized but pretty much that was it. It is too bad as the food when it did finally arrive was delicious.

    We heard great things about this place but our experience was disappointing. Food was horrible. Service was horrible. If your going to sell wine then teach the staff how to open the bottle. Also disappointing to watch the band setup and do sound check for an hour, should that not be done a head of time? Will not be returning.
