Stumbled upon Ripple Wine Bar as my family and I had a long wait at a close by restaurant for our…read moredinner. We are all so glad we stopped in during our wait! First of all, we LOVED the Grateful Dead inspo reflected in the menu and decor. That in and of itself made us want to come back! We were already a little hungry but didn't want to spoil our appetites, as we were going to a birthday dinner, so we split the Mediterranean Plate. It was delicious and gone in seconds! It was the perfect dish to tide us over. Other plates looked delicious, as well! We will definitely have to come back to try more. My mom got the Scarlet Begonia while I got the Casey Jones. We loved our cocktails. They also have an extensive wine menu. I had a class of Gavi and it was great. It's nice that they had an N/A section on their drink menu too. We will definitely be back!

Although I was pretty limited on what I could eat because most items had dairy.... The food that I…read moredid eat as well as the service I received, was excellent! We sat at the bar for dinner, during Restaurant week and decided to order a few items off the regular menu. The bartender Matt was great and extremely helpful. He answered all my questions about specific food items and also checked in with the Chef to make sure I could eat certain things. It is a very cute space, I did not go upstairs, but the bar area is very nice. We had the salmon with broccolini and roasted red peppers which was pretty good. We also had the hummus plate - the hummus and pita chips were good, although I didn't really like the quinoa only because it has a very heavy vinegar on it. I did not eat the pierogies because they have cheese in them, but my friend did and really loved them! It is street parking, so be mindful of that.

I took a friend here to celebrate her birthday and it was such a nice vibe.

I ordered their sauvignon Blanc on their menu - was quite delicious. We had also ordered the pick 4 charcuterie and it came with so much and it was so beautiful. You can see the pictures for yourself! I feel this is such a hidden gem in Mount lookout - people need to come here! They do their best to source their wines from smaller vineyards because the quality is just better where you don't end up with a headache or high blood pressure at the end of the night LOL. High quality stuff here!

Not fully dark but like... where the light was not. Frankie's is THE spot. The food was incredible. SO good, SO fresh. The drink selection was good. Our server was incredible too. Something I appreciated was that it came out hot - most places don't do this. Highly recommend the whipped ricotta, Arancini, hummus, and the Branzino is not to be missed. Their pita bread is fresh made, in-house, and definitely worth taking some home!

Unfortunately the kitchen was closed for the night, but we were able to relax with a multitude of choices for wine. The bar itself had a great environment where it was laid back.

We enjoyed a wine flight with the Sauvignon Blanc Clarendelle, the Rosé Minuty, and the Cabernet Montes Alpha.

Two in my party got the cheeseburgers and they were still mooing when they came out. Both asked to send them back to be cooked longer. Fries were amazing. I got the Beef Kafta and while, good, it just wasn't worth the price. I think my salad was literally 4 pieces of lettuce. Drinks were delectable though, so if you just want nice ambience and a drink, I think the bar would be fun. Service was odd. We asked 4 times for enough menus for the 6 of us, and we ended up with 1 menu to share? Then we got hit with a tip service fee of 30% for a large party.
