After a really disappointing Mother's Day experience elsewhere, we were lucky enough to grab a…read morelast-minute reservation at Sauvignon Wine Locker & Trattoria -- and it completely turned our day around. My mom hadn't eaten all day, so we made the 30-minute drive to St. Pete hoping for a better experience, and it was absolutely worth it. From the moment we arrived, Chris and his team took amazing care of us. The hospitality, attentiveness, and overall atmosphere made us feel genuinely welcomed and appreciated. What could have ended as a ruined Mother's Day became a memorable brunch thanks to the team at Sauvignon. Big shout out to Chris and everyone there for going above and beyond. Excellent service makes all the difference, and we truly appreciated it.

Sauvignon Wine Locker is a great hidden gem on Central Avenue. You enter through an alley and go up…read morea flight of stairs to the restaurant, which overlooks Central Ave. It's not a large space, but it feels cozy and inviting. The menu is fairly limited, but their house-made pastas are out of this world! I had one of their specials featuring pasta and airline chicken, which was excellent. My friend ordered another pasta dish, her husband had the fish special and my husband ordered the filet, which was cooked perfectly for him. Portions are on the smaller side, but still very filling. My husband and I each started with a Caesar salad. I forgot to ask for it without anchovies, and they gave the salad a very strong, fishy flavor. If you're not a big anchovy fan like me, I'd recommend ordering it without. Service was excellent for a busy Friday night. Our server was friendly and helped guide us with wine recommendations. He was spot on, and the wines paired beautifully with the meals we chose. Definitely a great spot for a cozy dinner in the heart of Central Ave.

We've been here several times for dinner, but they just keep getting better and better. It's the cutest cozsey little place right on central and the service is always on point. Most recently, my husband and I came for dinner. We started with the burrata and plum special as well as the tuna tartare for appetizers. When I tell you I will dream about the burrata appetizer. It was that good. The tuna was delicious as well and we loved the shrimp chips and how they were shaped like little tacos to make your own tuna tacos! For dinner, I got the branzino and my husband got the cheeseburger with truffle fries. Both entrees were incredible. No notes. Then we got three desserts...we had the lemon tart and the donut bread pudding while at the restaurant and we got a chocolate cake to go. All of the desserts were delicious. However, the donut bread pudding exceeded any expectations I had for that dessert when I ordered it. I legitimately am considering coming back next weekend just for the bread pudding.

Basically everything I could ask for from a lounge. Plus, the owner was kind, helpful, knowledgable and attentive. The wine tap is a fun time. You receive a card and use that to fill your glass (1oz, 3oz and 6oz pours -- 1oz are discounted during happy hour). There's such a diverse variety of wines (more than two dozen), you could get lost in all of the good options. Something for all palates. I tried the small Sonoma board (which was discounted for happy hour) and it was a good-sized, cheese-focused board with solid combinations. the meat and cheeses come with cornichons, olives, and crackers. the caramelized balsamic onion jam was incredible with the sweet blueberry goat cheese and the spicy salami. It's definitely enough for a quick bite to soak up all the delicious wine. Wines I tried, remember & recommend (you truly can't go wrong): - Passione Sangue di Giuda dell'Oltrepo Pavese - Chateau Pilet Bordeaux - Sonoma-Cutrer Chardonnay the decor is vibrant, rustic and cozy. so much wood. even more art! And lots of different styles of seating including booths, leather chairs, bar seating and small tables. accommodating for lots of group sizes!
