    Nice addition to the Nashville food scene! Small venue though. No parking. Limited food options & no bar menu. Just tell the bartender what you like. Very crowded. Nice vibe but not sure I'd return!

    A great wine bar in the heart of Germantown with a casual/relaxed vibe. When we went after a sounds game, there were multiple opens for white, red and blush wines to try prior to placing your order at the bar. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly, answering all our questions. Be sure to check out the patio in the back!

    We had such an enjoyable experience. They don't have a wine menu, you explain your taste preferences for wine and the bartender brings a couple over for you to sample based off what you said. The price range she said is $14-20 per glass. On the higher end, for one glass which is why this is not 5 stars. It would be great to hang out and have a few glasses but that would add up quick. I am not sure if they sell by bottle or not. We both had a tough choice of which one to pick out of our samples so the bartender did do a great job of picking what we might like. We were there for the pizza pop up night and did the roasted garlic cream and pepperoni. The roasted garlic cream was more like a cheese bread and very light on the garlic. The pepperoni was very flavorful. Pizza was $16-18 for 4 slices of wood fire which again very high in cost. We enjoyed splitting both of them. Great, cozy spot for catching up with friends or a date night. Parking is street parking, I had no issues but depending on when you come could be hard to find a spot. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.

    My fiancé and I stopped at Sauced for wine prior to our dinner reservations. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed, but we were able to find a seat in the back. It was a chill low key spot for wine. We really enjoyed the playlist and our glass of wine. One of the staff members wasn't wearing gloves while preparing food and was touching everything in sight. Which turned us off and we didn't order any food/snacks.The parking is awful in the area and it's hard to find street parking. For that reason, I wouldn't run back to Sauced.

    We love having a wine bar in germantown! The employees really know their stuff and its so fun to have someone help you choose a bottle. The first time we went was sooo busy and the patio hadnt been built yet. We ended up just kinda standing and we felt like we were in the way all the time. Now, they have an outdoor patio that is pretty sizable. This was much better. There were no bar stools at the bar outside though, and considering we were there for a couple hours it was a little bit long to be standing. The wine selection is great and I havent had a wine I didnt like there. The grilled cheese is amazing!! Sourdough bread and a cheese that is so tangy. Its almost a little blue cheese-y so I can see how it wouldnt be everyones cup of tea but I really enjoyed it. The charcuterie board was good but a little small, we ended up getting two larges. I'm pretty sure I ate all the olives in the group, they were so good! I think they are still working on some things, but I really like Sauced- and I love their glasses!

    Super cool spot! Gets really crowded early so expect to stand unless you can snag one of the 2 tops or a barstool. Some small bites available to snack on. They let you sample a couple wines before you order and have lots of options for glasses if you don't want a bottle!

    What a totally unique experience... We stopped by here when it was pouring rain, and wanted to play pool. There was DJ equipment on the pool table, so that wasn't optimal, but that didn't diminish my take on the place. Really cool, chill vibe with a very personable service team. They don't have a menu! They "get to know you first" and talk through wine selection, and then give you some options. Ellie was the team member who served us, and she was knowledgeable and really perfect for the presentation and experience they have created here. Great place to sip wine, meet friends, taste some unique wine, and sometimes, I guess, play pool. The neighborhood it is in is a fun walking environment too. Definitely recommend, we might swing by next time we are in town too, and see you there...

    Brooklyn based wine bar found in Nashville. A wine bar where you can taste many samples and choose your favorite. Great patio an amazing service make sure you try any and all the foods. They often Collab with local restaurants. Can't wait for the fall nights in their patio but don't be fooled. I have been there many nights inside due to TN heat, and played pool on their lopsided pool table.

    Super cute spot. Went to dinner at Emmy Squared and walked over for a glass of wine. It's first come first serve when it comes to seating. Very intimate space, perfect for a date or small group. The staff were super nice and are very helpful in making wine recommendations depending on what you're in the mood for. I will definitely be back.

    This is a cute new wine bar in Germantown that I've wanted to try since they opened. There's street parking around as well as a paid lot nearby. As soon as you walk in, it gives off a cozy, vibrant vibe. For a Thursday night, it was busy so seating was a little challenging but we licked up with a corner high top. You order at the bar and the bartender let us sample two of their red wines before making a decision. This place is good for a date night or outing with friends to grab a drink before dinner or afterwards.

    This is a lovely little wine bar and a great addition to the Germantown neighborhood. When you walk in, you're encouraged to grab a seat at the communal tables and order at the bar. There's no set wine list and the sommelier will discuss your preferences and make recommendations which you get to sample before purchasing a glass. I'd asked for a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc which they didn't have. This surprised me that they don't have wine from every region, but they were quick to offer alternatives. The wine servers/sommeliers were incredibly friendly. If you're just looking for a cozy (crowded) place for a glass of wine, look no further. I think where they fall a little short is the food. The portions are small for the price. We ordered the small cheese and charcuterie plate and it had one 3x1inch slice of Brie and and two meat choices for $24. Only including one slice of cheese is not a great value for a cheese and meat plate. For Valentines Day they has a special offer, East Coast Oysters. 12 for $32 seemed like a good deal, until we got the oysters and they were still stuck to the shells with no fork to dislodge them. After the awkward realization they were still stuck to the shells, I went to the food bar to ask for a fork and the chef just pointed to a bucket of forks. Not very warm, which was odd because the rest of the staff was so nice. Our server asked how the oysters were and I mentioned they were difficult to eat without a fork and she said she'd mention that to the chef. I would return for the wine bar vibes, but maybe eat first.

    I love this little wine bar in Germantown. It's the perfect place to go and sip and talk meanwhile trying a bunch of different wines. The employees really worked to find our favorite pour and would not stop until they did. Super cute and unique experience.

    This spot is a vibe!! Didn't eat anything because we stumbled upon it leaving dinner next door. But the wine and service is perfect. It's such a grown and sexy spot! Absolutely coming back

    Geist was amazing!…read more The atmosphere is truly one of the best in the city, especially when they have the place decorated for the holidays. On top of that, our server was hands down the best we've had in a long time. The drink menu was a little limited, but every cocktail we tried tasted really good. We started with the Caesar salad, and honestly that was the one miss of the night. It had a bit of a weird taste to it. Everything after that was fantastic though. I got the lamb chop and my fiancé got the filet, and both were cooked to perfection. For sides, the truffle fries and Brussels sprouts were standouts that I highly recommend. Will definitely be back!

Unfortunately, the food was a major disappointment. We ordered the biscuits and gravy with fried chicken, shrimp and grits, and two iced coffees. The coffee was good but the food was, honestly, borderline inedible and not at all what we expected. What was even more disappointing was the response when our server asked how everything was. We were honest and told her we didn't like the food. Her only response was, "Awww," before walking away. There was no offer to make it right, no follow-up, and no manager checked on us. When our table was cleared, our plates were still nearly full. For a bill of around $100 for brunch for two, I expected much better food and customer service. The beautiful setting wasn't enough to make up for the disappointing meal and lack of concern when we shared our experience.

To begin, we were pleasantly surprised that our table for 10 was ready as soon as we arrived, expecting to wait a bit for such a large party.

    The ambiance of this venue is impressive at first glance, but unfortunately the overall experience…read morefell far short of expectations. The restroom facilities were poorly maintained. One stall had a broken lock, while another was completely out of toilet paper. We attended a comedy show and waited approximately 15 minutes before being acknowledged by the bar staff. When I approached one bartender to order a glass of wine, I was told that because I was attending the comedy show, I should use the bar located in that area instead. I was then informed that if I wanted food, I would need to return to the other side of the venue to place that order. As a paying customer, I found this interaction unnecessarily dismissive and unhelpful. My destination within the establishment should not determine whether a staff member is willing to serve me. The service throughout the evening was disappointing. The bartenders appeared overwhelmed, unfriendly, and unwilling to provide basic customer service. While the venue itself has great potential, the lack of professionalism and customer care left a very negative impression. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I do not plan to return.

We came by for happy hour and light bites and were pleasantly surprised by their great deals. The $5 glasses of wine (plus a few other happy hour options) made it an easy choice. With the amazing early spring weather, we opted to sit outside in their patio garden area, which was such a cute and relaxed spot. For food we ordered the bruschetta, whipped goat cheese, and meatballs. The whipped goat cheese was the clear standout--it came with blueberry compote and hot honey so you could go sweet or slightly spicy. The blueberry compote with the goat cheese was honestly to die for. The bruschetta was also really tasty with great flavor, and I appreciated the thinner crostini slices.The meatballs came with three generously sized meatballs and were good, but not quite as standout as the other two dishes. Service at the bar was a little slow, but I honestly felt bad because there was only one bartender handling an increasingly busy bar. Despite that, the food actually came out fairly quickly. Overall, it's such a cute little spot in East Nashville with a great happy hour and lively atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

    The curse of Rumours continues!…read more I don't know that any business can survive this address. My first BW review of the year and it seems to have come as a surprise. Whispers abound as to whether the issue at VG was a rent hike or whether the owner just lost interest. In any event, it's the same sad story at the corner of 12th and Woodland. And that's too bad because VG acquitted itself nicely. On a Friday in mid-spring it was the exact right place I wanted to be to catch up with a friend. That backyard has been the stuff of legends for every iteration for a reason. If you've been here for a while, you know the score: walk in the front, smile, be greeted, ask for a table outside. That's just what we did. But before that we got drinks. Being a wine bar and being happy hour and being a Friday we went all in on the house red sangria. Served in a pleasantly large goblet, this goodie jar of wine and fruit did the job of quenching thirst and spurring conversation. To add to the libations, we settled on a series of bites: whipped feta (with sourdough -- and every bit of decadent as described in other reviews), olive tapenade (a briny, mound of oil, citrus and herbs) and (skinny) fries with parmesan & white truffle oil. Right?? What a perfect way to end the work week and begin the weekend. We had wonderful service from Abby and stayed on premises well into sundown. There was a steady crowd throughout our visit so I don't think a lack of business was the COD. Whatever the reason, it sort of boggles the mind that a wine bar concept can't stick around in a neighborhood and location that seems to crave it. That curse might be real.

    Cute little place to sip some wine and try some small plates. We tried the Brussel sprouts (half…read moreserving was more than enough!) and the caprese. I thought both were ok, nothing super memorable, but tasty nonetheless. Maybe it was just my taste, but the sprouts were a little too charred for me.
