    My niece and I stumbled upon Sparrow Wine Bar the other night, and honestly, it was one of the best discoveries ever. The ambiance, service, food, and drinks were all excellent. The space was very cozy and intimate. Everything we tasted was absolutely delicious, and we enjoyed the whole experience. I definitely would not mind driving back to Orlando just to experience Sparrow Wine Bar and this time, it will be with someone special as the the place is ideal for a perfect date.

    Back again at my favorite place! Didn't get anything new this time but enjoyed every single bite. The gnocchi is unreal and one of the best plates i have ever had. The carpaccio and focaccia is also a must try. the bone marrow is great as well. We came on a Thursday so they had a dj which made for an even better experience. Our server was also fantastic as always. I will continue to come back as much as i can! I would definitely recommend a reservation and parking is free in the garage!

    Wow!!! I sure have missed this one on my radar. My friend and I were in town for work and walked by this wine bar. We decided that we wanted to try something new but thought it may be quiet and empty. However, when we opened the door, it was full of people that were all relaxing and enjoying the tunes as well as the food and beverages. We sat at the bar where Leia the bartender welcomed us. She was so kind and so welcoming with great suggestions. The crudo was delicious as well as their fries! I will most definitely be back when I am in town again! It has the perfect vibe with the perfect dim lighting to relax your mind. Go check it out, visit with Leia (she makes the best drinks and conversation), and Enjoy!! Maybe I will see you there!

    Nicely decored intimate spot. I liked the banquet seating with pillows that made it extra cozy. It was a slow Monday night with most of the guests at the bar. Came in late night just to check out their $10 Monday martinis. There was limited options to just a plain or dirty vodka or gin martini. No other variations or anything else from their cocktail menu was part of this deal. Blue cheese stuffed olives were a dollar a piece and tasted great but don't think I needed the 3 that was automatically given. They did seem hand stuffed with fresh blue cheese instead of the already made kind so it tasted better than most Having been to a few of their other Good Salt group restaurants, this definitely had their signature touch with all the details and the delicious menu. I like checking out all their locations. Another one of restaurant was a few doors down The server forgot my simple request for ice and lemons in the beginning when ordering just water. She also didn't check on us after dropping off the drinks and had to get someone else nearby for more olive juice when my dirty martini seemed to have missed the dirty part. Getting the check seemed to be a task, no server in sight, and had to grab another employee to ask for it From just ordering waters and martinis, service was quite lacking. I get that it was a slow night but maybe tending to the only table around should have been an easy task and being a little more tentative for the few times a server was needed would have gone a long way

    This place feels vintage, but it's not. They had cool music playing and looks like they are ready for a DJ in there. The dishes were beautiful and the food delicious! My friend and I had the Caesar Carpaccio and Rigatoni Verde with Short Rib in it! It was so good! Oh and we also shared an order of fries. It was enough food for the two of us, but if I wouldn't suggest coming here super hungry! Our server Sophie was super sweet & attentive! I would definitely go back, especially for a drink and light bite!

    A hidden gem! This place has a very cozy and intimate vibe. We popped in for happy hour which is from 5-6 Monday through Saturday (yes, Saturday!) and were able to grab two seats at the bar. We were seeing a show downtown and just wanted to get a round of drinks and some apps beforehand. They have a decent selection on the happy hour menu. We got the Tinto De Verano and it was so refreshing! The bartender kept making a cocktail with tomatoes and when I asked her about it, she said it was the Tomato Gimlet and it is the most popular drink on the menu, so I am going to try that one next time. We also ordered the carmelized onion dip and castelvetrano olives. Both were delicious and I was surprised when I saw how many olives there were. They have a vinyl night every Thursday, which I am looking forward to checking out!

    Came to Sparrow for the first time for one of their monthly afternoon tea events, and the space alone makes an impression. The restaurant is gorgeous, cozy, stylish, and the kind of place you actually want to linger in with its comfy seating and relaxed vibe. The afternoon tea comes with a gourmet three-tiered tray: a cheddar scone with homemade butter and blueberry compote, four tea sandwiches, and four beautifully crafted desserts (including a lovely Earl Grey profiterole). Most of it was delicious, though I could have skipped the beef and tomato sandwich, it was quite bloody and made the bread soggy. There were about ten teas to choose from, which made the experience feel customizable and fun. The staff was friendly and attentive throughout. At $65 per person, this is definitely one of the pricier afternoon tea options in Orlando, but the ambiance and presentation make it feel like a special outing.

    The intimate dim atmosphere of Sparrow Wine Bar is such a vibe. The service is also amazing. Our server gave us some drink and food recommendations, and everything was fantastic.  The Tomato Gimlet was definitely my favorite thing I tried. I am such a tomato lover and this drink was everything I hoped it would be. My favorite bite of the night was definitely the focaccia. I wasn't sure how the blue cheese and honey would be together on the bread, but the combo was amazing, and the focaccia was nice and pillowy. We also ordered the Roasted Eggplant and the Pan Con Tomate. The Roasted Eggplant came on a puffy bread and was topped with peppers and onions. It was a good combo and I enjoyed it a lot. The Pan Con Tomate tasted good, but it came to the table a little soggy.  The prices are definitely steep, but worth it for the quality and the experience. I would definitely return for a date night or special occasion.

    If you're looking for a place that feels effortlessly cool without trying too hard, The Sparrow Wine Bar definitely delivers. Yes, it is a bit pricey (their pricing on the menu online is accurate)... but it was absolutely delicious! My friend and I started with some Tomato Gimlets since we love tomatoes. PLEASE TRY THIS! I know it's a wine bar, but I promise you the Tomato Gimlet is not at all like a Bloody Mary. It was a very sophisticated and enjoyable beverage. The Focaccia was absolutely mind blowing. On first glance, blue cheese and honey seem like a questionable combo but they work so well together. My main entree was the Rigatoni Verde which was incredible. The short rib was so good and the noodles were very tender. We finished up with a glass of wine (I mean we HAD to try the wine... 10/10 recommendation from our server) and the very rich and decadent chocolate cake (which was TO DIE FOR). Our server was fantastic! She checked on us frequently, was very kind, and had great recommendations. I would love to keep coming back here :)

    Ambiance? 5 stars. Food? 5 stars. Service? Definitely 5 stars. Everything was just excellent. We arrived on a Friday night around 6:45 pm, and the only tables available were outside. I was a bit surprised that they were fully booked inside, given the time. The hostess apologized and said that if we wanted to sit inside without waiting, we could go to Reyes, their sister restaurant. Nice of her, but no: if I came to Sparrow, I want Sparrow. We ended up sitting at a high-top table outside which, despite being small, wasn't an issue since the tapas-style dishes and serving plates were also small. Our server, Jackie, was extremely friendly and quick; she explained the menu and brought us water right away. I asked to try two red wines and, even though my friend hadn't shown any interest in drinking, she immediately asked "can bring the two samples for you to try as well?". Quite generous. We both ended up ordering a glass of Malbec each, which paired quite well with the food. For starters, we ordered the Pulpo and a side of bread with olive oil. I assumed the Pulpo would come grilled, but I clearly overlooked the fact that one would hardly get grilled octopus at a restaurant of this caliber for $18. I was a bit disappointed to see preserved octopus served from a tin (which, according to our server, was "just for show") and not in a very generous portion. The flavor, however, was excellent. As to the bread, it was toasted just right, and the olive oil (definitely Spanish) paired beautifully with everything. After that, we shared the Arroz Negro, which was without a doubt the best dish of the night. An explosion of flavor. Again, the amount of seafood wasn't exactly generous, but the taste and texture were simply di-vine. I squeezed some lime over the shrimp and boom. Perfection. Not fully satisfied, we ordered the Basque Cheesecake which, while tasty, was more of a reinterpretation of the true tarta de queso vasca. I was expecting a dark, caramelized, burnt top forming a thin crust, but I didn't quite get that crust. Yet, it was delicious. I might come back just for the cheesecake and a cup of espresso if they're open in the afternoon. The cherry on top of the cheesecake (tu dum tsss) was the birthday postcard the server brought, signed by several staff members. I truly felt appreciated. Big kudos to Chef Jennie (who always kills it) and Jackie for such a memorable dining experience. Bravo!

    An excellent place with great tapas option. The chef has created a new generation of traditional plates, with outstanding results ohhh. The cocktails are creative, innovative and an upgrade of the traditional drinks The service by Sophie was great on point and cozy, she know the menu and help giving us recommendations and guidance Well decorated and nice ambience. Modern, cozy, good lighting not too dark not too bright. Good experience!!!

    3.5/4.0 on this visit! We went to this restaurant tonight for some apps and a bunch of drinks and it turned out pretty well. The atmosphere is unique for that area of town and enjoyable. The prices can be a little bit high for the value in terms of food quality or just standard drinks. But overall you're paying for some of the ambience in my opinion. I would definitely return to this and do a full-fledge meal to update my rating in the future.

    Not much to not love here. Intimate vibe but still upbeat. All the staff is friendly, informative & kind. I am dying to try the girl dinner menu but the filet, rigatoni & mushroom pate is on my dinner rotation regularly. Highly recommend visiting

It is located in the Mills 50 district next to Tori Tori (another local FAV). It is truly a nice little getaway spot from the usual hustle and bustle of the Mills 50 bar scene. They have seating indoors and outdoors. Their outdoor patio area is charming and adorned with umbrellas, and the fountain just adds a special touch, as well as masks the typical street sounds of passing cars and passersby. In the cooler months, the patio is just a vibe! The interior is just as charming with "French-inspired" influences, lovely lighting & decor that ties in the European escape this wine bar beautifully embodies. On my first visit, we tried to sit outdoors, but the Florida heat (& bees) had other plans for us. So, we transitioned inside and sat at their bar area. We were immediately greeted by the kindest servers who guided us on their menu selections. My friend and I, with similar wine tastes (we both love our wines DRY like DESERT), both opted for a glass of rosé and YUM! We followed it up with a white selection recommended by our server, and we enjoyed it immensely. Truly ten, ten, tens across the board! We did not eat (which, in all honesty, is okay with me). And based on reviews from various other Yelpers, the consensus SEEMS to be to eat prior to coming to Lorelei. So, I kept that in mind and on my second visit to Lorelei, I decided to just try MORE of their wine selection. On my most recent visit, we did try some light bites. Typically, on all my visits, I usually cap around two glasses of wine, and it's reasonable. They are not the cheapest spot, especially if you add food to your tab, but for the quality, it is worth it (to me as it relates to the wine selection), as I haven't really had a terrible glass of wine there. Maybe on my next visit, I'll try more of their food menu. Beyond that, Lorelei has been a great addition to the Mills 50 District! I am looking forward to how they will grow with the community!

There were a couple girls taking pics outside when we arrived, so of course I told my parents they needed to do a pic as well. The food menu looked amazing and I will try some bites next time. The bottles of wine were more expensive than expected, but the glasses and beers were very reasonable.

We took the stairs to our table upstairs. We were seated near a wall and the bar. I waiter promptly came over to greet us. I wanted to try a few things but the brunch menu was sort of limited. I opted for crispy Mac & cheese bites, french toast, and breakfast croissant sandwich. The mac & cheese bites were crispy but could have used a little more seasoning and a little more cheese filling. The French toast was 2 pieces of toast with maple syrup and fruit. I opted to leave the fruit off with the current health concerns with raw food. It would have been nice to have been offered a substitute but I wasn't so I paid $18 for 2 pieces of French toast. I feel like the French toast would have been a better choice if it was accompanied with choice of, chicken sausage or regular sausage and eggs. That would have made a more complete brunch. The French toast was ok but could have used a little more flavor (ie cinnamon, vanilla, etc). The syrup was a very good grade of maple syrup and tasted so good. I did add 2 eggs for $6. Lastly had the breakfast croissant sandwich with grits. The sandwich was good I did substitute the regular sausage for chicken sausage. The chicken sausage was delicious. I was very pleased with the grits they were so good. Overall, the portions are small especially for the price. The restaurant is in a prime location, right in the center of Disney Springs and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. I would like to return for lunch or dinner in the cooler months so I may dine on the second floor patio over looking Disney Springs.
