I've been shopping for wine here on and off for more than 15 years ever since I took a Wine…read moreTechnology class at FIU. Wine Technology was one of my early morning classes so I pretty much had wine tastings before breakfast on those days. The class was great. They taught us about fermentation, how to taste wine, how to pick wine, how to understand the labeling, and much more. I'm not sure if FIU still offers it, but I would take it again. Crown Wine specializes in wine and they carry a wide variety of high quality wines. Great wines don't have to be expensive and Crown Wine still has some for under $10 or close to it. I'm not saying that Crown Wine is the most affordable. They likely are not. But they offer a very good variety with reasonable prices if you can pick them. This store is pretty easy to navigate. Each aisle has its wine sorted by country.. and then each subsection sorted by region. It's very easy to find what I'm looking for and then compare prices. Crown Wine also offers 2-hour wine tastings for only $10 if you purchase online (saving $5). The tasting can include 40+ wines and gourmet munchies. It's all listed on their website by date, hours, and location. It's much more affordable compared to the well-known and popular food and wine festivals down here. So my advice is to learn a little bit about wine. No need to spend a bunch of money on it.

I came back after exam and asked her for her name and email where I can complain , she refused to comply. It used to be a nice shop. She ruined it . I don't recommend going there to be treated badly.

I accidentally broke a bottle while…read moreshopping, and instead of handling the situation with basic customer courtesy or understanding, I was charged for the broken bottle. Accidents happen--especially in stores where bottles are tightly packed and customers are encouraged to browse. I believe it was unfair and poor customer service to place the full responsibility on a customer for an unintentional accident, without any attempt at goodwill or consideration. The way this was handled made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome, and it showed a lack of professionalism and empathy. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this store to others. The owner wrote my name and my phone number and he said I had a credit with them but the experience was so bad that I will never return to that place

The floor was sticky, the shelves were dusty, and I'm 90% sure a raccoon glared at me from behind a stack of expired wine boxes. The "selection" (if you can call it that) consisted of bottom-shelf mystery bottles that looked like they were brewed in someone's bathtub during the Great Depression. I asked the clerk for a decent whiskey recommendation, and he handed me a bottle that turned out to be cough syrup with a fake label. Either that or I hallucinated for 3 hours after taking a sip. Prices? Outrageous. I'm not sure what black market pricing algorithm they're using, but a can of beer should not cost more than my car payment.

I also stumbled upon a Brut Rose Pinot Noir so I had to give it a shot. Anything pink is always amazing :) I highly recommend you check this spot out. If you like Sake...this is the place to get it.

The associate was working the aisle so I'm uncertain how she was too busy to help a customer !??? We went and waited in the aisle a few minutes and no one showed. I'm taking my a** to another liquor store.

Had the pleasure of stopping by Jensen's looking for tequila. I spoke with Kevin and told him…read moreexactly what I was looking for: "additive-free tequila." He presented me with a couple of really nice options, including Lost Lore Tequila, their own single barrel of Arette Tequila, and El Bandido Blanco. He offered me samples of each, and to my surprise, El Bandido ended up being my favorite. It also happened to be on sale. Unfortunately for me, I had left my wallet at home, so I had to come back later. Even when I returned, the other associates were incredibly helpful and polite. To me, this is the perfect neighborhood liquor store: friendly, local, and absolutely stunning inside. Their wine section is outstanding and looks amazing. In my opinion, it has to be one of the best wine sections I've seen in a while. As far as the tequila selection goes, I was very impressed. They carry all the typical brands you'd expect to see, but they also have some great options for anyone hunting for quality tequila, including Tequila Ocho, G4, Arette, Siete Leguas, Lost Lore, El Tesoro, and so much more. I'll definitely be back!

My husband and I were so excited to check out this neighborhood liquor store while my mother in law…read morewas in town. As a Miami native, I've passed by this store countless times. We finally made it and the yelp reviews we had previously read excited us even more. The moment we walked in we were like kids in a candy store with all the beer selection and options to chose from. We were so excited to make this our new go-to liquor store and support a local business rather than make a run to our usual visit at Total Wine. The man who was running the store seemed to have an opinion on each of the items we selected even though we didn't ask for it. We understand when a sales person is trying to be helpful but he was everything but helpful and his comments were not appreciated. My mother in law asked him what's a good tequila and he responded "does it really matter?". I was super under impressed by the service. In addition, he watched our every move like a hawk, which I completely understand since I'm sure there is a lot of theft in Liquor stores but this makes customers feel highly uncomfortable and is blatantly obvious. We purchased a few large bottles of Belgium beer and other items since we were already there. To our dismay ALL items were expired and we realized this when we got home. My husband did notice one of the beers we selected was expired while we were checking out and told the gentlemen we no longer wanted it (but it never occurred to us to check ALL out our selection). The store associate was passive aggressive and went on to tell us it was "still good"!!!! There was no apology rendered at all. I will never step foot in this establishment and will warn others about it which is why I was compelled to write this review. Unless you are interested in buying expired alcohol, I would not recommend this place. It's a shame because I really wanted to like it.
