This is complimented by the large, striking art pieces that occupy the entire wall along the north side of the store. And I'm declaring right now the lovely patio area to be one of the most, if not the most, delightful al fresco dining venues in Pensacola. And right now in early May, the patio is graced with the lovely fragrance of the blooming jasmine vines that adorn the trellises of the patio. Though most of the wines on EHWB's list are unfamiliar to me our lovely, efficient, and attentive server, Nadia, was quite knowledgeable and able to steer us to exactly what we were looking for to accompany the Muffuletta we had our sights on. The list consists of a nice variety of moderately priced wines. And at lunch, there are several wines offered at half off per glass. As we're old timers we shared a half Muffuletta. We could have shared a quarter. LOL. It is large. It is served on a bun that looks like a Gambino's, and may be. The bun seemed rather dry to us, not perfectly fresh, but nonetheless the sandwich was quite good. Loaded with all the traditional ingredients and very enjoyable. Would definitely do again, though for next week we've got the Cuban Press locked in on our radar screen. There are several things on the dinner menu here that are calling out to us so we very well work an evening visit in while here. I'm saying this store is going to a winner and a mighty fine replacement and more here in East Hill for City Grocery.

Great location for wine tastings. We went on a Sunday afternoon during brunch hours and they had a…read moreDJ playing some nice tunes to set the vibes. It's pretty much self serve so you don't need anyone leading you. They give you a card that you can use to either get a small tasting, a short pour or a long pour. All of the options are less than half the glass. They have a variety or reds, whites, and some other options I'd never heard of before. Since there's so many options, It's almost like playing Russian roulette, where you don't necessarily know if you'll like the option you select, which is why you can do a small taste before doing a shout or long pour. The only thing that stood out to me that I wasn't a fan of was that there was a bottle of 19 crimes that retails for roughly $10 and they had it there and you could get a long pour for I think $5. That didn't make sense for me to get it. Other than that it was a nice experience and great for dat nights and groups.

Favorite thing about this place was the MUSIC! If you're looking for a nice lowkey spot that plays…read morer&b music, this place will not fail you. Although it is a wine tasting room, they do have a full bar as well. I had a homemade Bloody Mary which was probably the best I have ever had! With the wine tasting, you open a tab, are given a card and the wine is sold by the ounce. Service was also great. Show this small business some love!

Today, however, they missed the mark and I feel compelled to provide some constructive criticism, as I wouldn't want to see this otherwise good restaurant fail. I had the Caprese Sandwich with Grilled Chicken + Caesar Salad and sparkling water, which cost me $40 with the tip. Rather pricey for a lunch, but it's Friday and I felt like treating myself, so no big deal. Except the food was rather underwhelming, and unnecessarily so. It felt as if they had the right idea and the right ingredients but failed pretty miserably in the execution. First, the sandwich. I picked it up and drove straight to work (5 min drive), which apparently was enough time for the bread to become completely saturated with water from the burrata cheese, to the point where it looked and had the texture of soggy bread pudding and it was entirely impossible to hold it together. I had to eat it with a fork, which was inconvenient and disappointing. This seems like a very obvious recipe flaw, as the burrata has high moisture content and needs to be coupled with a more sturdy bread, such as a focaccia. Overall, I'd give it 1/5 for presentation. Moving onto the chicken. It was cooked very well and the taste was there, but it looked extremely unappealing, as it was almost entirely BLACK and not because it was burned, but because it was just fully covered in charcoal specks, presumably from the grill, which perhaps hadn't been cleaned in a while. I specifically asked for the grilled and NOT blackened chicken, so I was very confused and initially thought that they just cooked it the wrong way, but upon closer inspection, it became obvious to me the black specks were not seasoning but plain charcoal residue. To make matters worse, these specks had contaminated all the other ingredients as well, which I found pretty gross. It certainly did not meet basic expectations, especially for the price point. I'd give it 2/5, because it was edible and the chicken was otherwise well cooked and flavored, even if a bit gross to look at. Additionally, both the sandwich and side salad were heavily drenched in sauce/dressing. The l Caesar salad, which was very small (about the size of a small cup of soup), had very few pierces of lettuce mixed in with a disproportionately large amount of dressing and cheese, which was not only very overpowering but it made the salad really soggy. It basically felt like eating plain Caesar dressing. 2/5 because the dressing tasted good, but there was simply too much of it, and since it was already mixed in, I couldn't fix it in any way. I ended up not eating it. I hope the owners can see this and pass it onto their chefs/cooks, as I've met them and I know they're very sweet and caring people. Everyone can have a bad day, and I'm hoping this was just a one-off, and everything will be great again next time.

We were visiting and walked in and the…read morerestaurant was apparently booked inside due to reservations but we were seated quickly outside on their sidewalk patio. Our waitress was very attentive and very friendly and was helpful with recommendations. We got pork rinds and boiled peanuts for appetizers and both were great! The pork rinds came with a house hot sauce which were delicious. All of our entrees were delicious. My scallops were perfectly cooked and not sandy at all. My husband's pork shank was huge and super tasty. My parents both got the brisket sandwich and the cornbread was stellar! Great place and we'll be back if we visit Pensacola again.

I was seated in the middle of the bar with customers on both sides of me. My server took my drink and food order, and after that, she never returned to check on me. I watched her walk past me several times while attending to the customers directly to my left and right. Not once did she ask how my food was, whether I needed another drink, a box, or my check. Eventually, another server noticed my frustration and asked if I needed anything. I told him I needed a box and my check and explained that my server had never returned to check on me. His response was, "We are all working the bar." That response was unnecessary and dismissive. If everyone was working the bar, it makes it even more confusing that I sat there for so long without anyone checking on me. A simple, "I'm sorry about that. Let me take care of you," would have been the appropriate response. I understand restaurants get busy, and I don't expect perfection. However, basic attentiveness and customer service should be expected, especially when a customer is sitting directly at the bar. Unfortunately, this experience was very disappointing.

If you think that going to a wine shop is going to cost you more, you would be wrong if you are…read moregoing to Aragon. You get personalized service from true wine experts every time you go. I mean personalized as in they will absolutely learn your name and remember what you like. If you are in to see them enough there is a great chance that you will get a call when something comes in that you might like or have liked before. On thursday evenings there are free wine tastings of 6 or more wines. My wife and I both had our wine tastes change. Me after the summer of rose and she after COVID. We found ourselves floundering over our wine choices. We found Aragon and started tasting wine on Thursdays with Aragon's staff. Charlotte, Pepper and the rest of the AWM staff really helped us get back in tune with our new tastes and we were able to find new wines to match them. We have been with them ever since. We now can call and ask Pepper to order a case of this, or a case of that. We also can call and ask for Pepper to surprise us with a case of X number of $$ and he will put one together based on his knowledge of our tastes. He has not let us down yet! If you want personalized service from true wine experts at a reasonable price Aragon Wine Market will be happy to deliver it. Not deliver-deliver. You still have to pick it up, but you know what I mean...... Oh I almost forgot to mention that there are several ways to save even more at AWM. You get 10 percent off of cases and you get a card that you stamp at the time of purchase that will add up to free gift cards! It's a nice perk! Go check them out!
