I went to an Italian wine tasting at Beaker & Flask recently. If you don't know the place, it's a…read morewine bar with a monthly membership, and every so often they do wine tastings. So far I've made it to the Italian and Georgian tastings, and both have been a lot of fun. The place is really laid back. Great ambiance, soothing background music, and it's the kind of place where you can strike up a conversation with just about anyone sitting around you. It feels comfortable without being stuffy or pretentious. Josh, the assistant manager, and his team are all over customer service. They're friendly, attentive and seem to genuinely enjoy making sure everyone is having a good time. The tastings are fun, the wine flows, and you get to try wines you probably wouldn't otherwise come across. The membership is pretty reasonable too. You can also order food from the restaurant next door, and they occasionally have a food truck, so you can easily make an evening of it. To me, Beaker & Flask is kind of like having a secret living room where you can hang out, meet interesting people, drink good wine, and best of all, you don't have to clean up afterward. The only problem with writing this review is that I really don't want too many people to know about it. Because if everybody finds out about my little secret, I'm going to have to fight you for a seat.

It was my first time here celebrating a friend's birthday and I really enjoyed this wine bar. The…read morewine tasting was awesome and Josh (our sommelier) was very knowledgeable about the wines and pairings. The ambiance is very relaxing with mood lighting and comfy seating. A charcuterie board came with the wine pairing class but if you just would like some bites with a glass, daft cow and the food truck are in the same area. Definitely looking forward to come back!

The team is incredibly attentive and welcoming, and the atmosphere is small and intimate. Its not too loud, so it makes it a perfect for actually enjoying conversation. I also love that they have a rotating menu, so there's always something new to try. If you're in the mood for something specific, they're more than happy to make a custom drink if you just ask. It's such a special little gem.

It is somewhat off the beaten path and not on the main drag in the town, but well worth turning down to Treasury Street and following the music to here!!! I walked in and was taken aback but what I saw. Besides its beautiful landscape, the wine choices are fantastic and nice pours as well. We didn't get anything from the food menu, but the Charcuterie Board on the table next to us looked amazing. They have music every night and host a Full Moon Tasting Event as well as a Wine Walk through the town (I will take pictures when I go and post them) and Trivia nights with a band. I highly recommend and will definitely be back!!!

Sean, our server, was a knowledgeable delight who guided me through the menu's hidden gems. We had the deviled eggs with caviar and the duck confit bruschetta... both made me giggle they were so good. DO NOT MISS the lobster bisque. It will haunt my dreams forever... I had the surf and turf satay and my companions had the smoked scallops and the lobster parpadelle. All amazing dishes. The satay had ALL the flavors ... great for those with FOMO. The Zongo is a house made creation that was perfect with the Sauternes. Also- the wine list is well curated and reasonably priced. Can't wait for them to open their new location!!

We've been to alot of places…read moreback in tampa and orlando with same vibes so was so excited when something like it opened up here in ocala...but was left disappointed. First, the chef greeted almost everyone but us which was quite disappointing. Second, my order was messed up. I did told them i touched it since i thought it looked like my dish with the scallops yet the waiter still picked it up and serve to another table. Our food also took a long time to come out..water took a long time to get refilled along with the napkins and our wine did not come out until way later. Third, our bill was messed up as well. So definitely be cautious. Also, pro tip is it is cheaper if you pay in cash. We did try new stuff such as kangaroo tartare..definitely was a hit but crab fondue was ok as well as the pastas. You could definitely make them at home. The lobster pasta was too overpowering with garlic and there was barely any duck in the duck and pork pasta. For Ocala, i would say okay if you wanted to give fine dining a try. I just would not be back due to how we were treated, all the mess ups and underwhelming food for what we paid for. I do have to give props to the scallops. It was nicely cooked ( still soft, and could melt in your mouth).
