I Have Been To A lot Bars All Over The Us & Out Of Us.... I Have Never Been To This Fřnćĥì Ɓåŕ Before!!!! Until When I Got Accepted To A Yelp Elite Invite Event And The Frenchie Wine Bar Was Chosen To Be The Location Of The Yelp Elite Event!!! And When I Got In For The 1st Time I Had A Hard Deciding What I Wanted To Eat From The Menu The Only Item From The Menu I Didnt Waste Time Ordering Was The French Wine!!!! It's The Food That I Couldn't Decide To Eat... In The Beginning, I Ordered The Peruvian Fries & After That I Changed My Mind & Ordered Something Different That I Have Not Eaten Before.... So I Ordered The Anchovie Appetizer With 2 Pieces Of Bread To Go Along With My French Wine!!! After When I Was Done With The Wine & Appetizer I Have To Say The Frenchie Wine Bar Is Cool Place To Chill & Relax With The Wine & Appetizer Of Your Choice!!!! read more

Veggie frit was crispy and tasty - like potato and sweet potato fries mixed together Burrata was creamy and delicious (I requested without anchovies) Ambiance of the bar is nice and modern. Music is a bit loud so can be challenging to have conversation with more than one person. Wine selection vast in menu read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon around 2:30pm. They open at 2. There was only one other person when I arrived. I sat on the bench with my dog. They are dog friendly and offered my pup some water. Service was great and the interior is very cute. I really liked the decoration and ambiance. We ordered Rose, Chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc. We should have gotten a bottle to share but kept ordering glasses which in hindsight cost us more. I really enjoyed the Chardonnay. If you like your wine dry, I would recommend that over the Sauvignon blanc. The SB was sweeter and tasted more tart. For food, we got the deviled eggs, yuca fries, winter salad and the Peperonata spread. We enjoyed the deviled eggs so much that we ordered another plate. I also really enjoyed the winter salad. Super fresh, crisp and the strawberries really added to the flavor. My friends favorite was the Peperonata spread. There were anchovies in it which I really enjoyed. read more

Stopped by here a few weeks ago on a Friday night to check out, went in for a drink and was surprised of the location. I've driven probably past here hundreds of times but had not known there was a store here, the atmosphere is nice inside, cozy and warming. Service was fast, I was immediately seated and was able to enjoy their white wine, but I really enjoyed their red wines! I saw some interesting options so I did the flight, and it was a great choice! Had the Cab, Pinot, and I believe the Merlot, all were great tasting but the one from Argentina had a wonderful aftertaste! I'll definitely be stopping by again to try out their other selections! read more

We came here to enjoy a glass of wine and appetizer on a Sunday afternoon! The interior was cozy, spacious and literally warm. I had the complimentary rose and burrata appetizer and got another two drinks from the menu. We loved the appetizer - different flavors all blended super well and the texture was great. We chatted a bit with the owner Natalie and she was super friendly. They might have a brunch coming up so stay tuned! Also the wine bar is pet-friendly!! Happy to see a wine bar that is pet-friendly!

I cannot say enough about Frenchie's and I have not stopped recommending to friends and family. I ordered their fantastic cheese board, filled with a multitude of tasty and unusual cheeses from a wide spectrum of areas (photo included). I also ordered a glass or two of a champagne that was dry and had quite a nice taste. My guest ordered the beef tenderloin and that is a dish to die for. Melt in your mouth beef with just a right amount of seasonings. I cannot wait till my next visit. Also, the owners Joel and Natalia are the best and greeted us with such a welcome that we felt Frenchie's just gave us a big hug. Excellent restaurant for wine, food and ambiance. read more

Thrilled about this new addition to the neighborhood! Met a friend for some post work drinks on a Wednesday. I arrived first so I started with a glass of Albarino. It was refreshing! Once my friend arrived, we ordered the charcuterie board, tiradito nikkei, the grilled octopus, and a bottle of a chilled red to share. Everything was fantastic! The charcuterie board was beautifully presented and we enjoyed everything that was offered. The tiradito was bright and fresh! I sadly did not take a picture because we dived right in. Grilled octopus is typically my favorite thing on a menu & it was a hit. The owners are super friendly and had great recommendations. We even got to meet their beautiful frenchie!! Looking forward to many more visits to Frenchie wine bar. Next time I will be bringing my pup along! read more

Located in the legendary Mission District of San Francisco, this wine bar is a great spot to catch up with friends and enjoy small bites and yummy crafted cocktails. Their decor is very chic and I especially loved all of the hardware, glasses, tables, and benches. This place was styled by a great design artist. Even though the place was pretty packed and can be kind of noisy, I still felt very calm amongst all the healthy plants and loved the sophisticated 70s inspired glassware. Another great feature of this place is that you can buy most of the plants because they have some for sale so after a couple of cocktails, I was ready to redecorate my whole house with all the plants. I ordered a yummy Rose blend that was super crisp. Also enjoyed the Truffle Fungi! A delicious Shiitake and oyster mushrooms with parmesan and arugula on toasted bread. Their Spanish inspired potatoes were delicious with their dipping sauce. They have lots of gatherings there and DJ sets on the weekends. Lastly, a photographer would die to take pictures here.

The marinated artichokes were good, not amazing, but a large portion and pleasant enough. I wish they had more veggies or a salad option. The seats are not comfortable, this is not a place to come and relax with a book. The parklet seating is nicely sheltered from the breeze, but can be noisy. The music, outdoor setting, and service are all good. Flatbread was lovely and soft when hot, hardens to a crispy cracker when it cools. The Woody's sparkling N.A. rosé was a bit flat (flavor wise).

The people were laughing, the drinks were flowing. It smelled really good, which we would later find out was from the food especially that Mac and cheese. We started off with different wines, some that Tom recommended based on what we told him we didn't like or did like. He apologized for our previous experience and was genuinely a nice guy. Honestly it's very admirable for a business owner to take feedback to heart and want to incorporate it. Plus he's a really cool guy when you get to know him. The staff was busy running around but still made time to come check on us. Our final verdict is we came on a bad day. This time we got the actual Waystone experience. We finally got to try the chicken bites with a creamy aioli, fries with yogurt sauce, and the star of the show was the Mac and cheese. Tik tok did live up to the hype and we will have to come back for one of their jazz nights. Be warned this place gets busy! But it's worth it.

Waystone is technically a wine bar, but spiritually it's a community living room disguised as a…read morejazz lounge with snacks. Yes, the wine is excellent..(not selling you 'natural' actively fermenting bottles) thoughtfully curated... the cab franc , interesting without being pretentious. Yes, the bites hit (shoutout to the watermelon salad). But what really makes Waystone magic is the people. Everyone who works here is warm, funny, and present in a way that makes you feel like you belong, whether it's your first visit or your 50th. Live jazz nights here are their own kind of therapy. I once saw a harpist who made me feel like I was floating inside the music. No cover, no pressure, just ridiculously good musicians making the whole place glow. One thing I love: the rotating local art. The walls change every so often as new artists take over, and it completely shifts the energy of the space. You might not love every piece, but that's kind of the point--it's alive, it's personal, and it's supporting real artists in SF. And if you do love something, you can take it home (yep, everything's for sale). Whether you're here for the jazz, the wine, the art, or the people.. waystone shows up with soul. I'd give it six stars if I could.

Have dined here twice and both times did not disappoint! The service is great, and the food is…read morefresh and delicious. I especially love the dip trip and grilled halloumi. The burrito salad was alright, could have used a little more flavor in my opinion. I really like the small plates and sharing atmosphere of this place, and appreciate all of the vegetarian forward options. The space is small and intimate, definitely great for a date night or girls night! I will say if you make a reservation (I'd recommend, it's a small place and gets busy) be sure to be prompt as part of our group was running about 10 minutes late, and the servers kindly let us know we only had the table for an hour and a half, which is fairly strict on weekends.

We also ordered the non-happy hour burrata salad and the filet kebab. Our server was very attentive, though our main food items were somehow forgotten and we had to remind them.. but once they arrived, everything was great! I loved the pomegranate in the burrata salad. I also appreciated the non-alcoholic options, including my favorite Fentiman's rose lemonade. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for happy hour. My only small critique is the restroom, since the entire restaurant is so classy and chic, it would have been the perfect finishing touch if the restrooms matched the same vibe.

I popped it on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon with friends and had wine, devoured a plate of sardines and yapped. There was a large table for 6 of us upstairs and overall an impeccable experience for an immaculate day. I don't really know why I'd wind down and not give it 5 stars? It depends what you're looking for at the end of the day but it wasn't overly crowded t goodness, the people at the bar tag teamed to handle order (just 2-3 people) and there was a constant flow of tables coming and going? I could see it being busy but overall still an awesome spot!

He recommended a couple options for my friend and me to sample, and we ended up loving and choosing exactly those.

It was not even 7pm and the vibes inside were giving club. I didn't get any wine but the food was surprisingly so yummy -- we got the labneh with cara cara which came with seasoned pita bread, as well as the potatoes. I loved the combo of the yogurt with sweet oranges, and the bread was amazing! Super fluffy and soft. I want to recreate this at home asap. The potatoes were super crispy (a little on the salty side) and the sauce that came on the side was so delicious. Will definitely come back to try more of the menu (was eyeing the caesar salad) & for a glass of wine!
