I would love to get lost in The Lost Vine more often. What a gem of a wine bar inside plaza Lafayette! Total cozy vibes makes for a perfect date night, or a chill girls night out. Came here with the hubbie for a couple drinks last night, and was very pleased with the whole experience. Our server was so kind, and went over all the drinks with us. I opted for their poolside wine flight, which samples their rose, Sauvignon blanc, and a blueberry flavored red wine. Each was so good, I could not tell you my favorite. Ended with a glass of Pinot noir, which was sweet and bold. Hubbie loved that they had beer selections as well. You could totally be lost in The Lost Vine for hours. It's comfy, cozy, and welcoming with great wine selections for a great price. We saw other couples enjoying a quiet date night as well, and agreed we would be back next time we want to grab a few drinks. Cheers! read more

Cute wine bar that is not horribly expensive and chill. We came here around 5:30 Pm, people started slowly trickling in 30 minutes after. Interior is small with bar and table seating. They have HH deals with wines over $14 are $2 off. We both got a flight of three ($15) and 2 other glasses of wine. For food we got the chicken pot pie, short rib tacos, and the tomato soup. Chicken pot pie (9/10)-flaky rich and tons of flavor highly recommend getting this one! Short rib taco (7/10)-slightly dry but good portion probably won't get it again Tomato soup (8/10)-filling and heals the soul tomato forward with hint of spice. Service is friendly and food is decent. Would love to come with a group of people again! read more

Great spot to grab some wine! My husband and I shared a wine flight and a charcuterie board. After the flight we ordered our own glass of wine we liked. Some of their food items sounded good too, I'll have to come back a next time! The wines were light and flavorful. My favorite was the Rosé. Our server was very knowledgeable in telling us about the wines and where they came from. They also have happy hour daily which is a plus! The charcuterie board was delicious and came with quite a lot to share for a reasonable price too. We had a nice time drinking wine, talking and snacking. We'll be back for live music and more wine! read more

The Lost Vine in Tustin is one of those spots that feels relaxed but still put together. It's not loud or chaotic, which makes it easy to actually enjoy your time there, whether you're catching up with friends or on a low-key date. The vibe is cozy and inviting, with a neighborhood feel that makes you want to stay longer than planned. The wine selection is solid and well thought out, with a good mix of familiar options and some interesting picks you don't see everywhere. It doesn't feel intimidating either -- the staff is friendly and happy to help you choose something if you're not a wine expert. They make the experience feel personal instead of rushed, which goes a long way. Overall, The Lost Vine is a great spot if you're looking for a chill wine bar with good energy and quality drinks. It's the kind of place you can come back to regularly, not just once. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the Tustin area and want something laid-back but still classy. read more

I was looking for a chill place to hang out during a recent business trip and The Lost Vine did not disappoint! Such a cute place, super friendly staff and good selection! I had their featured flight as well as a charcuterie board, then opted for a recommended red and one of their special flatbreads. It was also trivia night, so hung around to play trivia as well. Would definitely stop here again when I'm in town. 4 1/2 stars from me! read more

First time out here on 12/2. I was so excited because I actually looked at the menu and am always eager to SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES , But after this visit, I will find other local businesses who actually appreciate their patrons. 1. Food - Flatbread was burnt. 2. Drinks - Happy Hour prices were decent. 3. Atmosphere - Negative. Holly nor jolly. Main musical act, you were great until you stopped the music to bring attention to the whole place that we were leaving. I actually felt bad, came back in to give you a cash tip for the inconvenience and then you proceeded to tell me (on the microphone) to keep my money because I NEEDED IT! Who are you to comment on what my financial means are?! Then, the saxophone player literally followed me, blaring his freaking horn( out if tune btw) at me, chasing me out into the sidewalk. No, this is not an exaggeration. I don't know if you think that this is a joke, but it definitely didn't feel like it. Also, please note that the reason why we were leaving is because even though there was plenty of space, for some reason, everyone seemed to crowd around me in the narrow aisle, shout into my ear having their own conversations. Which is fine. I don't expect silence in a bar, but I don't expect to be included in your conversation. at least say hello and I'll join in. Oh what else... Children were running through and around my table, almost knocking over my drink. An adult actually almost hit us with his arms flailing about because he had negative spatial and situational awareness. It was obvious that one of the people there was the owner who let his CHILD SIT & STAND ON THE BAR, which I'm sure isn't necessarily the most hygienic thing to do or to code. I feel like I was making notes like John Taffer on all the wrong things to do as a business/bar owner. It was obvious that I was the only outsider in the bar. If this is local or a regular night, please post a sign so we can be aware. Also, to the owner, I know that you can't control everyone, and whom you hire to provide entertainment, but it was clear that these are close friends of yours, which is also a representation of you and your business...and the way that you carry yourself. I'm very disappointed to say the least I was looking forward to having a nice evening. I have shared this on yelp, but with quite a few people in the local community as well who will not be visiting based upon my experience. read more

The Lost Vine in Plaza Lafayette, on Newport (just above Irvine Avenue) in Tustin is a special place. Traditional or adventurous wines (ask Sarah or Sydney they'll never steer you wrong), excellent light food choices - try the warm seasoned olives with bread as a starter - and . . . music, books, trivia. And the company of whomever you come with. It's a place you'll want to try more than once. Both to go back and replicate your first experience and to discover just what else is hidden in plane sight in the warmest little plaza in Orange County. The parking is great. There are other walkable options if you want to start your evening there - but trust me . . . it's deeper than it looks. Soulful. Not dark, but not bright - a place for conversations with someone you want to know deeper. It has a magic. Cheeses. Meats. Soups. Wonderful wines curated with expertise and passion. Bottled beer. Songwriters night tonight. Last Thursday of every month is a silent bookclub. Tuesday evenings is Trivia. read more

Came here on a whim on a Wednesday after work with my girlfriend. We had the best time just catching up and can't express enough of how grateful we were to Sarah, she was so attentive to us and gave the best recommendation for wine and food. We both agreed that she elevated our time here and we couldn't be more grateful. read more

My husband got booked to play some live music at this place and we went to check out this cute little wine bar. It's very nice place and they have one side of wine and one side of coffee. The place is cozy and the service is great, especially Sarah! She is the person who seems doing everything for this place; she is very professional, nice and supportive to the musician. We ordered some wine and food to enjoy our night with some live music. The food was very good and portion was also great for the price. Kids are welcome too! read more

Amazing food, best wine selection & romantic ambiance. This wine bar is my local favorite! Discovered it through my local silent book club and now I can't get enough. Sarah is the absolute sweetest and will guide you into your perfect selection. As a complete invert, I definitely feel at home here. Don't be afraid to ask for suggestions and ORDER THE CHICKEN POT PIE! read more

The Lost Vine has amazing food and service! It is very calming as it doubles as a coffee shop. It was my second time here and our waitress Sarah remembered us. It's always a pleasure coming here after going to a pilates class next door at Cirkel. read more

This was the first time here. We were excited for the food, happy hour and live music! Unfortunately, tonight was not what we expected. The band was fun, until it got packed with children running around the narrow spaces & too many people crowding my space while we were trying to eat and enjoy the music. But between the over crowded space and inconsiderate people having loud full on discussions in my ear while the band was performing and people trying eat was not cool. I really felt out of place and no longer felt welcomed. The staff allowed regulars to invade our space to the point where dudes were bumping into my table and standing creeply close behind me. I honestly felt violated. Literally felt like we were getting pushed out on purpose. We finally conceeded to the level of inappropriate rudeness by the regulars and staff allowing and enabling them to continue to molest our table space. We finally closed out the tab and proceeded to walk out only for the band to stop and point out that we were leaving to make the experience even more traumatic for us. Honestly the lack of respect for non regulars or even any patrons is appalling. But to allow the sax player to run us out was just over the top. We closed out the tab and proceeded to exit. read more

While I've been to the Lost Bean, the coffee/cafe part of the building many times, this is my first going to the Lost Vine. They have a nice selection of wines, and some beers which are better priced during happy hour. The server was nice and helpful and checked on us throughout our time. The charcuterie board was great as well as the wine we had which was yet to be featured on the menu. There was also live music. Unfortunately the wine flight that should normally be offered wasn't during happy hour, hoping to come back to try the flight! read more

The chicken pot pie was chefs kiss. I definitely can't wait to have it again! Cute little wine shop to just hang out and relax with friends.

Tucked away in Olde Town Tustin is the Lost Vine, right next to the Lost Bean coffee shop. I had a very pleasent experience while looking for a place to get some work done. I lucked out with Happy Hour and decided to enjoy a glass of the Arrowood red wine with the tasty Short Rib Raviolli. They are small plates, and will take about two per person to fill up on, but as a light snack or pairing with a great glass of wine, it's the perfect size. The barkeep, Sarah, was friendly, welcoming, and told me all about their specials along with her recommendation for plate/wine pairs. I recommend if you're looking for a place to dive into a book or laptop with a glass of wine (or coffee from the shop next door). On a Friday night, it wasn't too crowded or wild. The perfect atmosphere, with subtle classic rock playing in the background. read more

The wine was good but the appetizers, not so great. Went for happy hour on a Wednesday night and there was only one other party there. My two girlfriends and I ordered the bacon wrapped dates, avocado hummus, cheese & charcuterie board, and the arugula salad with chicken. The bacon wrapped dates were my favorite. The blue cheese was not overpowering and the dates weren't too sweet. Overall, good balance and I would order again. The avocado hummus and charcuterie board were underwhelming and I wouldn't reorder these. The arugula salad was really good and there were generous portions of the chicken we added to the dish. This was the most popular dish between the three of us. Maybe I'm just spoiled by my favorite wine bar (Twisted Vine in Fullerton) with its amazing brie bowl and wider food selection. I'd go back just for happy hour wine but wouldn't go out of my way to go. read more

The Lost Vine - Skip avocado hummus. Yes on bacon wrapped dates. - Wine Bars Near Me - Tustin, California

Came here Friday because we heard the live music and were in the area, decided to stop for a glass of wine and a couple appetizers. The place was absolutely packed, but we were able to settle in a table in the corner. The music was some lovely young kids and they had quite the lively audience! Sydney, the bartender, was lovely also. She suggested a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, and it was so good we finished it pretty fast! When we ordered food, she thoughtfully let us know that the kitchen was very backed up given the unexpected crowd and it would be a while. When the short rib tacos and beef sliders did eventually come out, they were out of this world! We ordered another bottle of Chardonnay while we were at it, and Sydney kindly came over and served us. She told us it was only her third week here and I was astounded! She was doing so great, especially being brand new. Kudos to Sydney and the band at The Lost Vine! You made our night and we will definitely be back! read more

I love this place! The ambiance is amazing as well as the coffee and food! Don't leave without trying the breakfast burrito!

Amazing service, fabulous wine, great happy hour & delicious food! Grilled cheese & tomato soup were outstanding!!

Nice little wine lounge to have a glass of wine and a bite. Located adjacent with the Lost Bean, has plenty of seating if you wanted to spend the whole day working. The service was great and attentive. Food wise... Short rib potato cups: bland and has room for improvement Caprese: anything with burrata, delish White Flatbread: quite tasty with the caramelized onion, potato gave it an interesting take on the texture Butter Cake: decent, the ice cream was great with it read more

There's a new chef in town, and he's packing a Michelin star. Watchout! Top two favorite dishes are the Orecchiette and the Burrata Crostone. The Tagliatelle and the Trofie are good, but not great. You don't come here for the food though. It's mostly for ambience and a glass of wine with friends! The Lazy Creek Pinot Noir is fine, but next time I will try the Merlot. read more

Great little wine bar which connects to a coffee shop The lost bean so if you like coffee then you can order it there & if you love wine then you can come over to the Lost Vine. I love the concept of the interchangeable spaces. Love it that they have live music here on Thursdays & Open Mic on Monday nights. Tuesdays: 5 wine tastings for $5 (awesome deal!) HH: 5-7 PM Mon-Sat Overall, great chill place with nice atmosphere & vibes to enjoy. This would make a great date night place to go to as well. Faves: Quiche Flat bread Top: Free WiFi & plenty of tables, chairs & seats to chill & hangout w/ friends. read more

My favourite place to get a glass of wine and catch up with a friend! I always try to convince people to meet up on Tuesdays here, because it means we can take advantage of the 5 wine flight for only $12! A steal! It is bartender's choice, but usually includes both reds and whites. I have always had pretty exceptional service on the wine side (the other side is a coffee shop, The Lost Bean). As for food, think small bites. If you aim for happy hour, food is 20% off, and I usually get one of the flatbreads to munch on. I love the vibes of this place, and will definitely be back. read more

Thank you Sarah and The Lost Vine...we all had a pleasant evening, great food, and excellent customer service! It was a successful Mom's Night Out at The Lost Vine. Everyone loved the venue, the food, and our server Sarah was just amazing! We definitely hope to come back again. If your looking for a nice place to host your event in Tustin this is a unique hidden gem. read more

Okay you all! Let me start by telling you how charming this place is. It has a rustic feel! The seating is great for smaller parties. But they made accommodations for all of us. Which I really appreciated. Upon entering we were greeted by a kind hostess, Emily! She made our whole experience so pleasant. Possibly because she was so patient with all our demands and needs . She was constantly attentive to our table. We never lacked anything. That's the kind of service that totally makes you want to come back. Onto the food now! We started off with the only bread appetizer they had. Let's just say it was so good we ended getting four more of that dish. We had the arugula salad . It did not disappoint! Something so simple, yet so good! After we had the 1st pasta dish, forgive me for not catching the name of it. But it was so good, that I am actually craving it right now. We also repeated that dish a couple times. The second pasta dish wasn't my favorite, possibly because the noodles wigged me out . But the sauce was probably my favorite out of all of them. The last pasta dish as a whole was my favorite. Possibly because it catered to my spicy side. It was such a treat when the chef himself came out to bring it himself. That made us feel so VIP!!! Just to let you all know, the pasta is all made from scratch, by hand! The desserts I could've done without! Canolili has to be spectacular, because I've had some made fresh. So my expectations are high. But cheesecake is cheesecake, you've had one you've had them all. So, to sum up our experience it was a great dining experience! It's rare when we go out to dine somewhere and there is nothing really to complain about!! Last night was a fun time with friends and the food made it that much better read more

The wine bar is sitting there sad and alone. People from the coffee house next door sometimes sit there and it seems so out of place. I was very disappointed when I met a friend there for wine the other night and the poorly written website did not let us know. The coffee side was crowded, poorly designed, and the servers behind the counter were slow and unable to answer questions. read more

The Coffee was delicious and the breakfast was great and healthy We are definitely going to be new regular's read more

I love the lost bean and I haven't been to it as frequently as I would like since I've been busy, but now that I'm done with school and my intern site isn't too far away I've decided to come back...and whoa has a lot of things changed. First of all, I am currently sitting in the lost vine! The expansion of the lost bean and like the name you can imagine that there is a large selection of wine, a few selections of beer (but they have shock top so that's all that matters to me), and I also spot some sangria. They also have HAPPY HOUR!!! Between 5-7 Monday thru Thursday: bacon wrapped dates, heirloom tomato caprese salad, avocado mash, and flatbread for $4! I'm a beer person so I only know the cost of the beer which is $4 during happy hour. Not sure what rude service some others were talking about I was treated great! Also there is AC so I'm sitting here nice and cool. I think with there is a lot of space between the lost bean and lost vine. I'll have to update my review once I try the food...but overall what a great place :D read more

Came here for date night on a Saturday after several failed attempts at other spots in various cities. I guess it was fate! We originally came to the Lost Bean, but upon ordering we found out that the Lost Vine was next door. So....we decided to try that out instead. What a pleasant surprise! My husband wanted low key, and thankfully we just missed a big party that was there for the wine tasting. Spencer, the manager was very informative and was happy to answer all of our questions. And, he was happy that my husband recognized his Wisconsin tat! He set us up with some very tasty beer and cider selections and gave us a little more information about what to expect on the different days. We were extremely pleased with the atmosphere, service and selections. We will definitely be coming back again. This may be our new watering hole! read more

Located in a popular parking lot on the corner of Irvine Blvd & Newport Ave. This Wine Bar is owned and operated by the same people of the trendy coffee shop called The Lost Bean. Which is also conveniently connected to this establishment next door. I went with my fiancé & her aunt. A glass of wine ranges from $10-$16 depending on which one you get. I ordered a $14 Cabernet Sauvignon & my fiancé ordered the $12 Pinot Noir. If you aren't a wine person, they also have a beer selection. This place also serves complimentary bread with olive oil & balsamic vinegar. We decided to share the $10 Caprese, $16 Scallop Crudo, & the $15 Prosciutto Flatbread. The Prosciutto Flatbread was fantastic! The hours of this Wine Bar is 5pm-9pm Wednesday-Saturday. Unfortunately they are closed Sunday-Tuesday. Overall It's a great place to hang out and enjoy some appetizers with a few glasses of wine. Also the Waiter/Bartender was very friendly & accommodating. I will definitely be back in the near future. read more

You know what, there is something simple and beautiful about a local spot. This coffee shop has some heart and good vibes galore. My wife and I recently moved into the area and were going to your typical coffee stereotypes, but my eyes caught the cute European shopping complex and when I walked into this place, I knew that I found a new and unique place to frequent. The first thing I was sold on was the people. Meredith and Ginger are regulars in the morning and their cheery attitudes lead the ambiance of the whole shop. You walk in, get a sincere smile, get your drink and now your day is off to a phenomenal start! I once complimented Ginger on her amazing attitude and she told me that it made her day. If only she knew that she had already made my day lol. Since coming more regularly I have met Bree, Jason, and Mandy--all I can say is that the more of the team I get to know and the leadership behind this local gem, the more it all makes sense as to why I love this place so much. When I need to work remotely, it's my go-to. When I need a tasty breakfast burrito, it's my go-to. When I just need to enjoy the coffee shop experience but don't want to go to Starbucks or Coffee Bean for the billionth time, then this is the place I choose first. If you haven't checked this place out, you're missing out and it's your loss. If you've been here a few times then you know exactly what I'm talking about. Share your story, but this little gem is a find! read more

Nice pours. Nice, big wine glasses. Nice wines. We went for the 5 (tastes) at 5 (P.M.), for $9. Small, relaxed spot for wine tasting. It's THE first place we've gone for wine tasting, however, where the producer/winemaker was never even named -- we were just advised of the varietal. Also surprising, no listing of the wines (or descriptions) were given, either verbally or made available on a menu for us to read on our own. Service was pleasant enough; the person assisting us, however, didn't appear informative or too knowledgeable on the wines. Still a fun time! read more

The Lost Vine is the wine counterpart to its coffee shop, The Lost Bean. The entire space is split into two areas (left & right , as I'll call it). Both spaces are used as the coffee shop during the day, but around 4:30pm they (kindly) start asking laptop users to move to the left side of the shop to prep for The Lost Vine's evening wine bar (no laptops in the wine area after 5pm). I've come here on a Monday night (open mic night), a Tuesday (5 generous tasting pours for $12 -- the best deal!), as well as a Sunday afternoon (enjoyed a glass of wine and read a book). I came by on a Saturday night and they were closed for a bachelorette party -- I don't think that happens too often, but note that it might. They have happy hour daily on food items from 5-7pm, though I've never ordered food. The Lost Vine is a cute little local wine bar in Tustin. I recommend! read more

We had a great experience at the Lost Vine. We tried almost all of the dishes on the menu in one sitting since we had a large group. Everything, including all the pastas, were very yummy.

I have been on a major hunt for different types of wine bars, as you can see from my many recent check-ins because I enjoy the casual and low key ambiance they typically provide. The Lost Vine had been on my radar for months since I heard that they "stemmed" (lol get it) from a coffee shop [The Lost Bean]. The ambiance is really relaxing from the cozy couches, to the smooth jazz that is played. PS I am a sucker for smooth jazz. Also, the food is very light and refreshing. I had the bacon wrapped dates that came with a side salad. The price ($7) of these appetizers and many others on the menu were not bad at all. UGHHH the dates were perfect with a nice glass of malbec. Speaking of great deals, I highly recommend you check out their Tuesday "5 Tastings" -- for $12 you get to sample 5 wines from across the world. I call it a wine adventure. Really awesome staff as well. Check out their website for upcoming events-- it is always updated. read more
