I visited Sauced with my husband last weekend when we were back in Nashville for a weekend. I couldn't have loved it more. It's a great wine bar with an amazing selection of natural wines, delicious food, the best service, and an amazing ambiance. What's not to like? Sauced works a little bit differently than a lot of wine bars. We walked in and were welcomed right away. When we grabbed seats at the bar (there are also tables), our bartender (I feel terrible that I'm not 100% sure of his name since we had such a great time with him - but I'm pretty sure it was John) asked us about wines we like or are drawn to. They don't have a printed menu - they ask you what you like or are in the mood for and then they they'll pour you tastes until you find something you love. Then they have several fridges of bottles you can purchase and open. And their selection here is also great. We saw bottles by several winemakers we stalk (when we see, we usually buy). The wines our bartender recommended (based on our tastes and preferences) were great, too. They also have a great menu of food items - great for a meal or a snack. We ordered their mortadella sandwich, which will likely go down as one of my favorite sandwiches of the year (great bread, tons of mortadella, pistachio cream, gooey melted cheese)... I think I covered this already, but the service was excellent: attentive (we didn't have empty glasses for long at all before we were involved in a conversion about what we wanted to pour next), friendly, helpful... The bar itself is also great - tons of character: walls with smoke from candles, great lighting, little intimate nooks for seating... I had a great time at Sauced: great wine, great food, a great time. I'm not in Nashville as often as I should be (in laws), but I'd be happy to visit Sauced every time I'm in Nashville. Sauced might be an outpost of a Brooklyn wine bar, but Nashville is still so lucky to have it. Most cities don't have a wine bar as great as Sauced. read more

Came here for a girlfriend's birthday and thought it was a great vibe. My biggest complaint is just the lack of transparency on pricing. While I enjoy getting to talk to the bartender about what I like or may want to try, if they're busy, I don't want to just spend all of our time asking them the price of things. We definitely had a little sticker shock at the end of the night, but this was also my first time here so that could be something I just wasn't expecting! Aside from that, the service and wines were great. So while it isn't somewhere I see myself putting in my weekly rotation, it's a nice option for a special occasion or nicer evening. read more

Popped in for a drink with friends on a Friday night! Place was packed and so hot inside, so we sat in the patio out back. The bartender was super friendly and helped steer us in a direction of what to order based off our preferences! read more

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! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

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... read more

Sauced fits perfectly in Germantown food and drink scene. It's relaxed, intimate, and pretty chill. There is no wine menu, you tell them what you like and they'll offer you what they think you'd like - kinda a wine version of attaboy if you will. The majority of the wines are blends. The staff are kind and knowledgeable. Their grilled cheese (blue cheese) is the main reason I keep going back, it's superior! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Trendy wine bar. Great vibes. Good music. Unique bites. The place is super small so it can get crowded very fast. Definitely worth trying out for a low key, chill time.

Sauced is always a vibe. I love their Williamsburg location and was so excited when I was there last summer and learned that they would be opening a Nashville location! They are always hosting really cool pop-ups and collabs with restaurant and chefs which is such a fun way to try new food from near and far. The staff is always really kind and helpful too. Get the morta sando, you won't regret it! read more

Sauced was a cool vibe for a Wednesday night out. Stopped in for a small bite and a couple glasses of wine and had a nice experience. I will say I despise their short, thick wine glasses but maybe that's being nitpicky. Overall though, the dimly lit space with intimate seating, good service and tasty food (the focaccia was delish) won me over. I'd definitely go back and try it again. read more

Awesome service, they ask the pallets of what you enjoy. We got the right bottle for our group. So quaint and very personal touch. Quiet on a Sunday. read more

The less you know about wine the more fun you will have Actual conversation between me and the bartender: Me: do you have any ports? Him: no Me: do you have any cabs? Him: I do not Me: what about Chianti Him: yes Me: nice how much Him: *about to start pouring* $180 Me: wait hold up just give me the cheapest you have. Him: alright that's $60 The bottle I received is in the images attached with the online prices. I get bar prices are higher but the cheapest bottle should not be more than a 200% mark up. read more

It's ok. Just ok. The wine is fine. I feel that the staff don't really care what your tastes are--as soon as they identify a taste you like, they sell you that wine. Also, the music. If you want romance, then go somewhere else. If you like rap music that says the 'N' word over and over again, then this is the place for you. It's a European wine bar. Be European. read more

Lovely bar and ambience!! Finally a natural wine bar in Nashville. I have been waiting for this day.

Incredible wine, beautiful & cozy space, lovely service, great music and vibes! Always a good time!

I've frequented plenty a wine bar in Nashville and unfortunately I will not be coming back here. I wanted to love this place because the neighborhood needs a wine bar, but unfortunately our experience fell short. The vibe was unwelcoming the night I went, and there was no wine menu in sight, which should have been my cue to leave. Then, my glass of wine that I talked to the bar tender about was OVER $23? Which was not mentioned to me at all when ordering - it was giving more "money hungry" rather than "this wine selection is the best for you". Again, a great reason for a menu - if i have questions, I'll ask your bar tender but I don't want to be shell shocked at the price when I get my bill. I did not expect it to be cheap, but that is completely outrageous. There are better wine bars in Nashville (Butterlamp, Bad Idea, Van Gogh etc) for much less and restaurants with an amazing wine selection that I would recommend before anyone coming here. read more

i LOVE this place! the wines are sooo yummy and i love the "try before you buy" model. i've gotten to learn a lot more about natural wines! Also the ambiance is perfect and the bartenders are rly sweet. i just wish the wines weren't as expensive! read more
