They do not have a full kitchen so no meals here. If you love cider or mead, I cannot recommend this piece enough. Their wines are great but are a bit eccentric compared to traditional wines. If you need a drink, can't go wrong.

There were a lot of different sized tables to accommodate any group. This would be a great spot for a rainy afternoon, book club, date night, etc. We didn't realize it was Michigan wines only which is not our favorite, but the bartender was really helpful in helping us find alternatives. They offered Michigan whiskey, cocktails, cider, and beer. I got a cider & my fiancée got a beer from a local Geneva brewery. We absolutely loved both of them! There were also some bar snacks available, candy, cherries, cheese & crackers, etc. to munch on if you're hungry. They have a cute retail shop in the front with merch, cutting boards, and wine. Weirdly specific, but they also carry my FAVORITE line of lavender soaps and lotions from northern Michigan.

The inside is relaxing and the outside area is super cute with plenty of seating. There was live music when we were there so we sat outside and enjoyed our wine flights while listening to the music. Can't get better than that! Service was great- the girls working were amazing. I liked talking to Lisa. She was really nice! The wine is incredible! We are sweet wine lovers and that's most of their wine menu. They have so many unique sweet wines. I particularly enjoyed the raspberry dragonfruit, black cherry, and orange sangria. I love how they set up the flights. The first wine you list on your sheet is at the top of the flight and then it tapers down to 2nd, 3rd and 4th. I've attached photos. They also offer wine slushies, which we thought was really cool! We will definitely be back when it's warmer out to enjoy those!

But alas I needed food - check! and a nice glass of champagne - check! Champagne is only by the bottle, but they have a great variety. The Prosecco by glass was good, but I wanted a little something more. The tequila and whiskey/bourbon selection is vast for a wine bar, I was wildly impressed considering I'm not actually a wine drinker. The flatbreads are huge and the charcuterie board was fantastic!

Erin, who handled all the planning and coordination, was absolutely fantastic--she made the entire process smooth, organized, and completely stress-free. The venue itself is beautiful and added such a special touch to the celebration. The space is tastefully designed with a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels both elegant and comfortable. There is plenty of room for guests to gather, mingle, and celebrate, and the layout made it easy for everyone to enjoy the event without ever feeling crowded. The décor is charming and rustic with a modern feel, creating the perfect backdrop for photos and making the entire event feel polished and memorable. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully arranged. The winery setting gave the party a unique and relaxed vibe while still feeling special enough for such an important milestone. Our guests commented on how much they loved the ambiance and how perfect the space was for a celebration like this. Erin paid attention to every detail and ensured everything ran seamlessly throughout the day. We were able to truly relax and enjoy time with family and friends without worrying about logistics. Our family and guests had an amazing time, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate. I highly recommend Geneva Winery for any special occasion--they truly go above and beyond to make your event memorable.

The restaurant was nicely decorated, and they had some new items on display for purchase. One thing I did notice was getting a few looks from some of the staff while walking through, possibly because I was wearing ripped jeans. Not sure what that was about! Some days you just don't feel like dressing up, even when going out for good food. We started with the Sweet Chili Calamari (7/10). The flavor was really good, but some pieces were a little tough. For entrees, there were plenty of highlights: * Jambalaya (9/10): Really delicious with a nice kick of spice! * Chicken Burger (8/10): Great flavor and came with good sides. * Gnocchi alla Vodka (9/10): Creamy and delicious. * Gnocchi Carbonara (8/10): Another good pasta option. * Braised Short Rib Risotto (9/10): Definitely one of the highlights. We finished with the Key Lime Pie (9/10), which was a great way to end the meal. And of course, we had to get a glass of their Romance Red wine. Absolutely delicious! Overall, the food was really good, and the service was good as well. Despite the busy atmosphere and the little awkwardness when walking in, we had a great meal. Definitely plenty of dishes worth coming back for!

Chris was our server and provided great service and went above and beyond. My cousin and I decided to share the grilled oysters and the charcuterie. Chris noted my reservation said no nuts and seeds and he said that the charcuterie came with seeded lavish. He went through the lavish and only chose the ones without the seeds. Now that's service! The grilled oysters were amazing! Only four came on the plate and I wanted to eat all of them and not share. I will definitely get those again - and all to myself. The charcuterie was your typical charcuterie. You can choose your own cheeses and meats on the board which is nice. The only disappointing thing is no complimentary dessert for our birthdays. Lots of restaurants do that, but I guess not at this one. Get those grilled oysters, you won't be sorry.

THE MALBECKONING…read more SixtyFour Wine Bar is a winning concept in downtown Naperville. Much like what Tapville Social does for beer, SixtyFour follows the concept of guests having the freedom to pour their own drinks. This place is on Water St in Naperville, near Vasili's and Blue Sushi Sake. Street parking isn't plentiful so the garage is your best bet, especially in the evening. You can build your own charcuterie, but use caution: everything is a la carte and without much effort that cute cheese platter can swell upwards of $40. This happened to us on our 1st visit, I thought "yeah sure, add a $4 honeycomb and seasonal jams, why not" to go with the $9 prosciutto, $7 manchego, and $5 cornichons. More recently, I got the restaurant week pre-fixe ($49) which included a starter, entrée, dessert, and glass of champagne. Each course separately would've added up to $55 (not counting the bubbly), so this option saved a few bucks. Both my wife and I got a pour-your-own wine card, that set us back about $20pp. The wifey got a mix of a dozen west coast & east coast oysters ($36) that came with cocktail sauce and a zippy pomegranate mignonette. The goat cheese bruschetta ($13) was incredible: goat cheese spread on several large pieces of grilled sourdough with roasted tomato and balsamic. We loved this and would get it again in a heartbeat. 5/5 The dates ($13) were a different story, however, as they came with cranberry goat cheese, orange honey, and crushed walnuts. I've been so used to savory dates (wrapped in bacon with a tomato sauce) that this much sweeter iteration caught me off guard. They weren't objectively bad, I just wouldn't order them again. 3/5 For my main course, I chose the short rib ($31) as I've done several times now: tender beef with mashed potatoes, braised carrots, crispy onions, and a red wine jus. This is a delicious entrée that I find myself steering towards every time I'm here, as it pairs perfectly with a Malbec or red blend. 5/5 The gnocchi ($33) were fairly pricey which I attribute to big chunks of lobster in a white sauce. But what SixtyFour did felt like a "bastardization" of gnocchi (my wife's words, not mine) by turning it into a homemade mac 'n' cheese of sorts, cooking it in a mini cast iron skillet topped with toasted breadcrumbs. Say what?! "Breadcrumbs" and "gnocchi" should never be used in the same sentence, unless it's "hey honey I did that grocery shopping, and I got beer, eggs, wine, gnocchi, ice cream, laundry detergent, kitty litter, AAA batteries and a box of breadcrumbs". It tasted fine, but there was absolutely no need to innovate here. 1.5/5 We reached a split decision on the dirty chai crème brûlée ($11). My wife thought it was different but lovely, whereas I found it strayed too far from vanilla custard and the flavor was overpowering, as if I just snorted tea leaves. It was REALLY strong, y'all! 3/5 Bread = 3.5 Circuses = 4.5 Our server Melissa was attentive and let us know about the wine tasting inside near the hostess' stand. We had a couple small pours (1-2oz) which equated to a free half glass, no complaints there. Restrooms were clean and the outside patio has a relaxing ambiance. The vibes are classy, romantic even. * TL;DR * It's fun sampling bold reds, sweet whites, and even rosé in 1oz, 3oz, and 6oz pours. I pity the fool who grabs a glass, sticks it underneath the first tap they see up front and presses 'POUR' without realizing they just selected a 2014 Chateau Haut-Brion ...... which retails for $500 a bottle! A half glass is nearly $75! I'll stick with a $7 Shiraz, thanks. As for the food, it's been mostly great with only a few exceptions. The gnocchi was whack, and the chai crème brûlée was polarizing. Due to the presence of delicate wine glasses literally everywhere, I would keep kids away from here. Leave the little ones at home and come here for date night. SixtyFour lists themselves as a wine bar first and kitchen second, which I agree with. If what you're seeking is a kitchen *and* wine bar, hit up a Coopers Hawk. Both places have solid wine selections, but being able to enjoy wine on-demand is a big plus. I'd happily recommend SixtyFour to friends and family.
