Happy Hour Rose and Red along with the HH menu
Ryan W.

This is becoming a preferred happy hour spot for us. The staff and atmosphere are both relaxed. Just what I am looking for. They typically have R&B playing at a reasonable volume, so you can enjoy it while still hearing yourself think. As far as food, I have only had the Mezze Trio, which I enjoyed. The hummus and crackers were good, and I never saw an olive I didn't want to eat. We have enjoyed all of the happy hour wines that they have offered. I can't speak to peak hour, but it's a fantastic spot to post up for the afternoon.

Spinach dip, beer, and Prosecco

Fun, relaxed vibe here with some good live music on our Saturday afternoon visit. Sat outside and sipped my beer as my wife enjoyed her prosecco. The spinach dip was excellent.

I came here with my mom on a Thursday and had a great time. We were sat immediately and got to sit by the window. The wine bar itself is super beautiful. I loved that they had love music, it fit the theme very well. I started off by ordering a bottle of sweet white wine which was delicious. For snacks we got the cheese charcuterie board and spinach dip. The charcuterie board was good nothing crazy about it but the spinach dip was amazing and had almost a spice to it I would say. If you are in Fort Worth this is definitely a fun place to try whether on a date, weekday wine down or even a girls night. 10/10 experience! I hope they continue the jazz music because this pairing was great!

Stopped in for a drink before hitting the Stock Show and had a pleasant experience. Came in just before 4:00 when the '1/2 off a bottle happy hour' started. they wanted to seat us next to the wine cellar but the place was empty and we were looking for a cozier spot. Ended up in the other room at a high top as they were saving the other tables/soft seating of larger groups. The bar was full of people on computers - finishing the Friday workday I guess. Well after 4:00, it got busy. They proceeded to give the seats we were interested in to other couples... I took one star off for this in my rating. It didn't go unnoticed. We had a bottle of Fiol Prosecco and some mixed nuts. Nice and crisp, and well presented. Service was very friendly. Check out was easy, at table and Apple Pay accepted. Single use restrooms (very clean) with interesting signage.

a dining area with tables and chairs

Interesante! A very nice place to Learn, explore and chat over wine. Beautiful strong brick walls compose a very private feeling . With dim lights, TVs and music stiil the ambiance remains fairly balance and very intimate. We have come to experience this gem twice now. First time on our own. The second time with our wine club. In both instances the service was the same: consistency, promptness, attention and quality. They used to have delivery service through the pandemic. The service was just for the surrounding areas. Unfortunately this service is no longer. I'm pretty sure all the staff is A+ but I highly recommend you to ask for Tony and Mikey. In both of our occasions they were outstanding! Always professional, friendly and willing to address our needs. Both are very knowledgeable on the craft. And have a palate with great recommendations! I believe that for groups larger than five or so you might need to reserve. Food is permissible as long you purchase wine or anything else here. They don't confection food necessarily there. But they work alongside with some amazing kitchens in the area. So I encourage you to ask for their menu. Now, it might not be the most extensive but it sure is delicious! Here some of the wines that we tried: The cosmic egg, Cabernet Sauvignon (Must try). Tapiz alta collection, malbec Emmolo, merlot (MUST TRY). Ghost block, zinfandel (MUST TRY). Tip: go on Tuesday. Best day because Tony is there!!!

Cheese & charcuterie board
Lara H.

Pros: dedicated parking, cool vibe, dog-friendly patio, great wine menu, prime location Cons: slow service, overpriced shareable plates We came early evening on a Saturday and surprisingly had no trouble parking (they dedicated spots). It's a popular spot, and they have a large outdoor space that is dog-friendly, which is nice to see. Their wine menu is diverse in my books, but I am not a wine snob so am easily pleased. They do have my favorite type of wine from my favorite region and that doesn't happen often. A+ for that! They have a handful of shareable foods. We decided to get the cheese and charcuterie board, which is $5 more than the cheese board, because it was serving as our dinner for the evening. I really don't think what we got was worth $30. We had one piece of prosciutto, which was the only difference from the regular cheese board. Is $5 worth it for one piece of prosciutto? I don't know about that. We got a table right away, but it took a VERY long time before someone came to get our drink order. It took even longer to get our wine, and even longer than that to get our charcuterie board. They did apologize for how long it took to get our food, so that was nice at least. This was my first time in the Magnolia Ave area, and I'm questioning if maybe it's just not the place for me. I might consider coming back to Magnolia Wine Bar, but only for a glass of wine and when I have time to wait.

Tonight it was really nice.. had a great white wine and pizza . Our waitress was personable and so helpful. Definitely will be coming back.

Charcuterie Board
Anna Grace M.

This was exactly everything I wanted in a wine bar. The atmosphere is peaceful and the perfect place to go on a nice afternoon with friends! They have an excellent selection of wines and the charcuterie board was to die for! Parking is available in the back as well as on the street. Very excited to come back and try other wines!

Never has there ever been a time where I can eat them or ANYTHING containing them without gagging....UNTIL GRAND CRU.

Wine selection here is amazing, and the service has always been so friendly. We always feel at home. Cost inside, too with warm and low lighting. I highly recommend Grand Cru.

Chris let us know that they have live music on Friday, maybe Saturday nights. Plus, we loved the little puppy treat station by the door. We regularly got to see the cute puppies getting to stop for a treat on their walks! Give them a shot, I know I'll be back!

Magnolia gets busier every year, and I was confused by the signs in the back lot. After chatting with my server, I learned that parking is free in the back and side lot on weekends, so don't let the red and blue paid parking signs scare you away. The wine bar itself is spacious, with plenty of seating and a relaxed atmosphere. It wasn't packed, but there were enough people enjoying a bottle of wine and catching up with friends that it felt lively without being crowded. I really liked how the wine selection was displayed on the shelves with information about where each wine was from and the price. Using my passport, I chose a Vinho Verde from Portugal. It was light, crisp, and refreshing, just what I was looking for on a hot Texas afternoon. The service was excellent. My server was friendly, walked me through my options, and kept refilling my water throughout my visit, which was especially appreciated on such a warm day. I also noticed they have a full calendar of events, including live music, sip and paint, and a mimosa bar from 8-11 on Saturdays. What stood out most to me was the location. It's the perfect place to meet friends for a glass of wine before dinner on Magnolia, or to settle in and spend the afternoon people watching and relaxing. I'll definitely be back to explore more of their wine list.

With that being said, I like to believe I have a good palate for Chinese food. If you're coming here expecting authentic Chinese food, you won't necessarily be disappointed but just know that your expectations also may not be met. However, if you're looking for upscale Chinese American food then Teddy Wongs is certainly the place to go. I came here on two different occasions - one for a friend's birthday and another for a date. In short, both were great. Both times did require reservations or at least strongly implied so. I did see one couple that seemed to have gotten turned away on a busy night, so just keep that in mind. Additionally, parking may be a bit of an issue as other reviews have noted. However, if you plan accordingly and park at a nearby lot where it's past hours and marked, then it's not an issue. That's at least how it was for me in both instances. Now, when you walk in, the space is more of a dimly lit environment. Perfect for celebrations or date nights (at least from my two visits). With reservations, we were quickly seated. I will say that we were seated quite close to another table during the date so for smaller parties, you may get to know your neighbors. Both servers in the visits were phenomenal - knowledgeable with the menu, friendly with interaction, and quick overall. Could not ask for better! Having been here twice, especially for the birthday, I'd say that I got to try a good amount of their most popular items. In terms of the dumplings, what stood out to me were the pork and crab soup dumplings, spicey wok-fired har gow, and the truffle pork soup dumplings. An appetizer that I will say was a standout was the cucumber salad. It has a good amount of spice that is well complimented by the cold temperature of the dish with a satisfying crunch. Perfect palate cleanser, especially before the dishes that come ahead. For mains, the spicy cilantro cod was a standout with just the right amount of heat. Of course, you have to get the peking duck. It comes in half or whole options. During both occasions, in parties of four and two, we got the half and it was enough. Sure, it wasn't necessarily the quality that you'd get in Beijing but it's certainly up there for a Chinese American restaurant. For dessert, we got the chocolate dumplings. It's exactly what you would imagine... melty rich chocolate contained within a dumpling wrapper. If you've ever had Din Tai Fung then it's more or less that. Lastly, in terms of drinks, I did get the Lucky Emperor at one visit. It's sweet, crisp, and tart. Great drink that I believe complimented the meal! Overall, I do recommend Teddy Wongs. The food is good but the atmosphere, vibes, and service are what really make this a worthwhile visit.

Such a neat concept- you're given a card, make your way around the wall of wines, pick what you'd like to try and pour yourself a glass, basically enjoy wine on tap!

Everything we tried food-wise was fantastic: Meatballs Dirty Martini Crostini Cheese Board Pizza I'd happily order every single item again, and I'm already looking forward to working my way through more of the menu. I also noticed they host different events regularly, and I absolutely loved the comedy show. It was run very well, and you could tell the comedians were having just as much fun as the crowd. I'll definitely be back for the next one and I'm following their social media for more events.
