My wife and I were invited by a close friend of ours in 2007 to a drink at Cru Winery in Plano; we've been regulars ever since. The atmosphere is always inviting, elegant but never pretentious, with the perfect lighting and energy for a relaxing evening. The food is fabulous, and the crowd is always friendly; we have made many friends. The wine selection is outstanding, with something for every palate. TJ, the bartender, is the best. He's very knowledgeable, friendly, and has an amazing knack for recommending just what you'll love. He always takes the time to greet us, and knows exactly what we enjoy. His passion for wine really shines through, and he makes everyone at the bar feel welcome and appreciated. Whether you're a wine lover or just starting to explore, ask for TJ -- he'll make sure you have an unforgettable experience. Salud! read more

I LOVE Cru'!!! I used to frequent the uptown location when I first moved to Dallas, but it has been years since I've gone. When I stumbled across this location, it reminded me of how much I used to love visiting Cru'. The wine flights are reasonably priced, the food is good, and the staff are extremely friendly and great at making recommendations based on your preferences. This location plans wine tasting events, which make it even more exciting. If you are a wine connoisseur, do not take my word for it. Go check it out for yourself. You will not be disappointed. read more

Good spot to grab a bite and some great wine. The lobsters pot stickers were my favorite! Tj is great and very welcoming! Second time here and he recommended us noice choices. If you're looking to just unwind, I'd highly recommend Cru! Decor is very cozy. read more

Crú - A Wine Bar - Honey Cracked Goat cheese Beignets and a flight of Reisling! - Wine Bars Near Me - Plano, Texas

Had a great time at Cru wine bar. Our server Norman was amazing, entertained us and provided us with great service. He was knowledgeable on the flight selections, and constantly checked in with us. This place is perfect for a low key night, a date night, or just to get a nightcap if you're in the area. It's quaint and has a beautiful interior with the wine bottle wall and they even have a private room in the back for a small gathering with friends or family. They have food that sounds great as well, we already had dinner so didn't try any of it this trip though. Norman also told us about daily specials that they have on Mondays, you can get a bottle of wine and they'll give you a pizza of your choice with it. That's just one of the specials. I got the winter bliss flight which featured 3 wines, from Italy and France I believe. They were all pretty smooth and I enjoyed them. Thanks for an enjoyable wine night Cru! I'll be back read more

Another Restaurant Week find. Husband and I came in early on a Saturday night and got a table in a nice, quiet corner. Restaurant is really trendy-looking and I absolutely love the wine wall! The host and our waiter (sorry, forgot their names) were both very nice and attentive and offered a lot of helpful menu recommendations. Husband and I pretty much ordered one of each on the restaurant week menu: Appetizers - Lobster & Shrimp Potstickers Entrees - Scallops and New York Strip Dessert - Molten Chocolate Cake and Creme Brulee Everything we ordered was delicious and we really enjoyed it. It was a really nice date night and would definitely come back again! read more

The caesar salad was fresh and lively, with a rustic bread on the side. The scallops were perfectly cooked with a creamy spinach risotto. Fun flights of bubbles and pinot grigio. Great lighting, feel like we are on vacation! read more

Went for Valentines fixe price menu for dinner. It was pretty good but was very disappointed that they ran out of Creme Brulé as one of the dessert choices. Our reservation was at 7pm and this should not have happened. read more

Like the wine flights as it allows you to try different wines without costing a fortune. I am a Merlot fan so I appreciate that being on the list of flights . Didn't try any food. Heard the pizza is good. The ambiance is perfect, not too loud the service wasn't bad , it wasn't too busy for a Sunday afternoon. Cru is a nice place to people watch. Very comfortable setting. The wines consistently changes based on the seasons. It's well worth a visit and they offer happy hour specials with saving on a bottle of wine. read more

Such a great place for happy hour drinks with friends. They have a great outdoor seating area and a lot of space inside. The service was good. We ordered Sauvignon blanc and some apps.

Brought my mother and sister here on a Sunday and it was such a nice experience. We sat on the patio and had a flight(s) of red and wine featured from places like Italy or California. Our server was pretty attentive and offered some great appetizers. I'd come back and try dining inside next time. read more

The mood is mid; stick to the wine. My friends and I came for restaurant week, and the atmosphere was nice; our server started off good, but that didn't last long. She kept disappearing, and we had to get up and go get her even though it was slow, so I don't really get that. The food was very bland, my favorite being the lobster and shrimp potstickers. The scallops and risotto were extremely bland, and the chocolate cake and crème brûlée weren't good. Overall, this is my second Cru location with mid-food, so I'm convinced to skip the meals and only order wine. read more

We stopped in here while we waited for the drag show. We ordered snacks and a carafe of food. Our server sat us immediately and took our orders. She was really great! The peach Bellini was super strong and didn't seem to have any purée in it. The mini Belgian waffles were light, refreshing, and super good. I decided to try the goat cheese beignets and they were gross. Tried them with the sides and it wasn't much help. I will say the place was very cute and had good music. I would come back to try something else on the menu. read more

First time from out of state trying and I thought this was was perfect for a Wednesday H.H. We got some flights and appetizers from the H.H menu. All were good, nothing extravagant but decent and paired well with wine flights. I enjoyed all of the wines. We sat outside and it was nice, perfect weather. The service is also outstanding, we accidentally spilt and broke a glass and the service was kind enough to pour us extra. Overall, food was 7/10 & flights were 8.5/10!! Would come back for H.H read more

I'm really sad to write this review but what a disappointing Valentine's Day dinner! I was so excited because the pre set menu looked so good! Kitchen was extremely slow too. Bartender and drinks were lovely and she made some great recommendations. Let's talk food--- Lobster bisque very good, small tasting Risotto had little flavor and huge onions Shrimp dish was tasty Filet was slightly over cooked but good flavor Scalloped potatoes also had large unexpected onions Asparagus was ok Lamb was terrible and overcooked Potatoes were bland with no flavor Both desserts chocolate Molten cake and crème brûlée were fantastic! Bottom line the starter and main course were way below average. I would love to go back but not for a major holiday. Stick with the wine and pizza! *no accommodations made either to our $220 bill, not that I expected it.... But for me to get my husband to return..... read more

A couple of ladies and I went to Cru late one night on a whim. We ordered wine, chocolate fondue, and pizza. The selection of wine was nice but they ran out of what I wanted so gave me something not as good. The chocolate fondue was tasty and addicting with a good variety of food items to dip. The Margherita Pizza was not great so I don't recommend getting that. As the server was pouring my bubbly, she spilled a good amount on the table. read more

4 of us went last night for the ending of Restaurant Week. The food was great & the wine flights were fun. My friend and I asked for a full pour of one of the wine selections and each of us we were forgotten. I asked a different waitstaff to bring my friend hers, but just blew mine off. They didn't charge me for it, so no worries. The reason for the less than stellar review is the restrooms. They were both absolutely disgusting! They are open to either men or women and this is not a good thing. There was pee everywhere. All over the seat, and puddles on the floor. SO gross. They really need to separate the 2 into men and women. If I ever go back, I'll make sure not to go to the restroom. read more

My sister and I tried this place for the first time last weekend to celebrate my birthday. We got there right when they opened, for happy hour, the food was impeccable and we loved our server Robinson!!! My sister and I are huge foodies and we were just floored with the food we decided to have my bachelorette dinner there in a couple months! So excited to go back. We didn't take photos of everything we ate... We started off with the phenomenal shrimp and lobster potstickers and then had the mouth watering goat cheese beignets...TO DIE FOR GOOD. read more

Had a lovely evening sitting on the patio all our drinks came out within minutes of ordering even though every table was full in the patio. Our food also came out quickly, fresh and hot. Had a lovely waitress who brought out water for our pups and asked if they could have treats too overall a great experience. I would suggest they put less cheese in the pizza though as it was not my favorite. read more

I was finally able to try out this place! We made reservations via opentable to enjoy a dinner here with the girls. There's little to no street parking (for longer than an hour) but there is a parking garage not too far away. Right before walking in, there's patio seating for a cute wine date. Sat down and ordered the wine flight #4, thanks to Nathans suggestion. I'm a sweet wine/desert wine drinker, and this was the only one on the menu that fit that description. The flight came with 3 glasses as well as a cute lil' card to let you know exactly what you ordered. For my appetizer, I ordered the crab gratin. I never did get it. After waiting about 20mins, I asked him to cancel it as I expected the food to be coming soon. Unfortunately, he'd never put the order in as he stated he didn't hear this order. For my pizza, I went with the Butcher pizza, which tasted better to me the next day. Not a bad place, but I think if I came again, it would be just to enjoy wine vs. food. read more

Great experience! Food top notch and the service was up to par! The waitress was informed and helpful as we were looking for options.

My husband and I shared 3 wine flights...so fun!!! They give you cards with descriptions and you get to compare wines and the flavors! Food was good, wine was great, service lovely (Carol was fabulous)! read more

What a place! This is actually the first time for me going to a wine bar. I had such an amazing experience at Cru. Really impressed with the atmosphere. Very elegant, comfortable and cozy. They have very good food selection. Highly recommend their steamed mussels and their truffle pizza. It was incredible tasty and very reasonable price The server was very friendly and welcoming. He check in just frequently enough to ensure you are never in need of a beverage refill Overall, really enjoyed this lovely restaurant. This is a perfect place for friends gathering or date night read more

I've heard raves about this place so had to check it out. A good place for a girls night out, or a romantic dinner with your significant other. If you like wine, obviously, this is the place for you. The Fristo Misto and Goat Cheese Beignet's are must haves! They are absolutely delicious! The pear and Gorgonzola pizza came highly recommended and its good as well - maybe not worth all the hype I heard about it. Their cheese boards are yummy as well. And the dessert fondue is the perfect way to cap off the meal. read more

So incredibly disappointed.... To start we got sat 20 minutes past our original reservation time that was made a week prior . Our server took our order and then let us sit for 30 minutes before the first course came out. And I realized that 1 hour has past, with one coming to the table. I called the manager to check on our food. Came back only to tell us that they have "ran out of fillets". So I guess I was just supposed to sit there. Asked for the check, luckily it got covered and was given a gift card. Needless to say was a disappointment for our valentines dinner. read more

What a nice wine bar! I met a friend for socially distanced drinks as we planned final details of an upcoming event. I thought the wine selections were broad and well-thought out. One of the best options is to simply pick a flight and let yourself experience a few surprises in a wine style of your choice. There's plenty of seating outdoors (good if it's not too cold) and they have spaced out seating indoors to help patrons feel comfortable. read more

First time at this location. I always love Cru! This location has quite a bit of seating. I had the rose' flight this time. Very tasty!
