    4 Stars for a great wine bar in Brooklyn that is bright, has shared plates of food, cocktails, and some GREAT bottles of wine available. We arrived on a sunny day and enjoyed the brightly lit interior. One thing to note is you go up to the bar to order and grab your goods to take to your table. It was very slow on the day/time we were there, so this wasn't an issue at all, but I could see it taking a while if it's busy inside or at the bar. We ordered some marinated olives and a bottle of wine to share. From where you're sitting, the small kitchen is open so you can see the guy getting the food prepped. It feels really intimate and like a true neighborhood place. I dug the vibe and the olives were perfect with our bottle. Beyond that, I really appreciated the shelf of staff wine picks since you don't have a table-service server who can help you choose. It was a smart addition that helps someone like me (who needs a good rec). I also really liked the candle they had in the bathroom, which was a woody scent. Someone else in my group said it was super overpowering in the tiny bathroom, but I thought it was great. Definitely a place I'd visit again when in the area looking for a great bottle of wine!

    Although I'm a huge fan of their Jade Margarita, I keep coming back to this place because of the service and community here. When the weather's nice, I can easily grab a seat outside and be immersed in all of the conversations around me. Sometimes it's old friends that are hoping to catch up over Rhodora's shrimp cocktails. Sometimes it's Pratt students visiting because there's a new pop-up menu that night. and sometimes it's people like me who walked by and just wanted to get a good drink that never disappoints. They usually have a small selection of snack-type food bites (unless they are doing a pop-up menu) so I would not come here starving but you definitely can get something to nibble on when you do stop by.

    Their new setup!

    I love how local businesses have found ways to adapt to Corona times, and Rhodora Wine Bar is a great example of that. Since the pandemic, they've turned themselves into a wine shop, with a pretty rad selection of bottles. They also have a smallish selection of pantry items like Kewpie and Maldon's Sea Salt (everyone should have these at home already, but if you don't.... find them here!). I'm having a pet nat summer (naturally carbonated wine), and Rhodora is carrying one of my favorites - UIVO pt nat. Snag a bottle if there are any left!

    Stopped in for a drink when I trekked to a closed but open on Google wine store nearby. Lovely staff and wines! Enjoying a sparkling rose atm. Cheers!!

    A tin of sardines and some canned trout on toast - total, $32.

    Easily the most overpriced spot in the neighborhood. I understand and appreciate the "zero-waste" mission but charging those prices for canned fish is practically an injustice. Our reservation was for Saturday night. The place was packed and very noisy (tables close together, low ceiling, no baffling.) There was a large crowd of drinkers near the front, so no one saw me until I flagged down a waitress. We started off with pitted green olives, unseasoned ($6). The waitress explained that the only hot food is the lasagna, the soup, and the grilled cheese, and they didn't have the grilled cheese. She said that they don't "force out" anything and everything arrives when it arrives, tapas style. For my "entree" I had the smoked trout on rye ($15.) It was one piece of toast with some canned fish and creme fraiche. Not an entree at all, served on a tapas plate. When I saw how small it was I ordered the cream of asparagus soup ($13, very tasty.) My boyfriend got the lasagna, which he said was OK (it was also served as a tapas, not an entree.) We also got the lemon sardines ($17.) They literally opened a can of sardines, sprinkled some parsley on the top, and put it on the table with two small tines. It didn't taste any better than the $4 canned sardines from the Key Food. To accompany this, we ordered some good, crusty sourdough bread ($4.) With the food I had two glasses of a very nice albarino. My boyfriend liked his rose. So no complaints about the wine. Total tab: $142. I left dissatisfied and feeling like I filled up on bread. We noticed that the table next to us, which seemed to be drinking a lot and having a good time, kept ordering dish after dish. Apparently they were having trouble getting enough to eat. Verdict: If you want a lively, noisy place to socialize, go for the good wine. Skip the food.

We split a bottle of one of the lightly chilled chiantis the Fiasco and it was perfection. We mainly got the winter specials which were the asparagus, smoked eel, duck salad and scallops which were all truly phenomenal. The scallop dish was quite small so not the best for sharing but the rest were all amazing. From the regular menu we got the mushroom toast which was absolutely delicious and great for sharing and the pork chop which is one of the best dishes I have ever had. The pork chop was cooked perfectly and was incredibly juicy. For dessert, we got the creme brûlée which I am also still thinking about and one of the best desserts I have ever had.

The food here is delicious and I was happy to see gluten free pasta options. The pork ragu was good but I was truly impressed by how good the texture of the gluten free pasta was. For me, the show stopper was the branzino. It was seasoned perfectly and the potato crust was a fun touch. The salad was nice and simple, but didn't blow me away. Portion sizes were good, though the prices are on the higher side. The restaurant is a great place for a friends' night or date night, and I'd keep the group small or make a reservation in advanced because it gets busy. It is definitely a more expensive spot, but worth it!
