    They carry the best wine brands

    The food was great, service was amazing, the live band was phenomenal. The own is so welcome even allowed me and my large party to put all the tables together. I will definitely be back.

    This is a great addition to corona . I have been in a wine mood lately and I was looking for a place where I could grab wine and relax . On a whim I decided to come to this place and I'm so glad I did . I ended up coming on a Thursday in whim they have a dj and they do a 10 dollar cover . You walk up to the host and they sit you down right away . I looked over the menu and they had a good selection of wine food and cocktails and beer . I decided on the Mango moscato and I got the bruschetta to go with it . Everything came out fairly quickly and the bruschetta was delicious. The fried ravioli wasn't that great or crispy and the sauce to go with it tasted odd . The mango moscato was delicious as well and I couldn't stop drinking it . Overall the service was good and it was nice to see so many people of color in here enjoying themselves .

    Went in on a Thursday night to enjoy some wine and sit down with surprised they had a DJ and it was a event. Service was attentive. Prices were reasonable. Would definitely come again on a quieter night. Would definitely want a deeper food menu to enjoy my wine with and possibly a happy hour.

    So enjoyable! First time at The Wine Down, but won't be my last. The music, food, drinks, and service were excellent. Had the privilege of meeting the owner and she was so gracious. I'll definitely be back!

    We came on open mic night (Friday at 6pm) and it was a great experience. The ambiance is beautiful and sleek. The service was very good. We ordered the Flatbread, lemon pepper chicken wings and some wine. Everything was food. The music was great and the guest did well. Their outdoor seating was nicely done and seemed enjoyable to enjoy on a nice evening. I recommend this as a good hang out.

    The food is delicious!!! The ambience is relaxing and so beautiful. My husband and I had such a wonderful experience enjoying date night here. Service was A+ as well. This will definitely be our weekend spot.

    Us locals are so happy to have a wine bar in downtown! The vibes are awesome. We love the owner! She's so personable and cheerful. We've visited 3 times and each time enjoyed the atmosphere. The lite bites are perfectly paired with the wine selection and just enough to satisfy your hunger. I can't wait to see the entertainment lineup as things progress! Welcome to Corona!

    What an amazing place!! I came here for the soft opening and everything was wonderful. Everyone from the greeter at the door, the servers and the bartender were very professional. The ambiance presented a very sophisticated vibe. Well decorated and inside and outside seating. Definitely a "Date Night" option. They now have a Sunday Brunch from 11-4pm with live music. The brunch menu had a good selection to choose from. So you won't be disappointed. I'll definitely return.

    I am so jazzed to have such a cool spot right here in Corona. Guys you have to come check it out. I had the red wine flight, the mini bruschetta appetizer , with great jazz in the background. Just a great way to chill, enjoy a great menu and excellent wine. I can't wait to get back there and chill.. Oh, they have live music on Saturday. Looking forward to checking that out as well

    Ladies night out.

    By far the best restaurant pizza we have had on the west coast (best street style pizza was…read morePellicola pizzeria DTLA). As a riverside native, I love the Backstreet patio and was excited to return in an evening setting. Husband and I did a short hike up Mt. rubidoux then enjoyed a romantic dinner at Devereaux House. We agreed it was one of the better date nights we have had in Riverside. We went on deftones and chess night. There was an excellent curated music playlist, chess boards everywhere, candle and string lights, and a really solid wine list. Ambiance was10/10. We tried the salad, meatballs, two pizzas, and an orange wine. Everything was 10/10. Service was insanely fast for how busy the place was (not an empty table in sight). The line to order appeared long but moved quick due to competent staff. Choosing a wine was a delight with a knowledgeable server happy to pour us tasters until we chose our bottle. If you're in Riverside, make this your next night out. It's worth getting out of the house for.

    I came here with my friend on a Saturday night after a crazy month of working dawn to dusk. We were…read morereally looking forward to the food and ambiance, but were severely disappointed in our meal. The pictures posted by the business are extremely misleading. The pizza we received looked like corporate chain pizza which also lacked the homemade crust and sauce we expected. Either the recipe changed from when the pictures were posted, or it was an advertisement trap. The ambiance was great though. I loved the lights and decor. Another table also played mario kart and the switch which looked like lots of fun. Logistics-wise was a bit confusing. We parked in a lot across the restaurant. And I wasn't able to find a clear entrance and just walked through open gates and tables. I think you order at the bar and seat yourself/someone will seat you if it's busier. Then they deliver to your table. Our meal came out to $90 for 2 pizzas, 2 drinks, and a side of marinated olives. Would not come again.

We were sitting at the bar yesterday evening and a rude customer had treated the female staff poorly and caused a scene, the general manager handled the aggressive customer with grace and respect. We come here often and we hate to see the staff be treated that way.. the restaurant was clearly very busy (as they can be during the summer rush) and the staff was doing their best and apologetic towards the guests until the husband got agitated and aggressive. The GM had kindly attempted to deescalate the situation but was met with disrespect.

    This review is long overdue…read more I've been coming here on and off for the past two years since moving to the area, and every time I give the sushi another chance, it disappoints. This last visit (April 18) was the worst yet. The drinks are actually great, the bartenders know what they're doing. That's the only redeeming part of this place. Now the sushi... completely different story. It took an hour to get a lobster roll, and what showed up had little to no lobster. It was mostly shrimp, not even a mix, and to make it worse, there was visible shrimp vein (yes, the poop tract) still in it. Completely unacceptable, especially for something being sold as a lobster roll. (See photo.) It also took another hour to get just three types of sushi, and the yellowtail was cut poorly, chewy and full of muscle, not clean or fresh. At this point, this isn't a one-off experience, it's a pattern. I've given this place multiple chances, and the food quality and timing consistently miss the mark. If you want good sushi, skip this place. If you want solid cocktails, sit at the bar and leave it at that.

We first visited on Valentine's Day in February and had an excellent experience. The pizzas were delicious, we were seated without a reservation, and we left excited to come back. Yesterday, we decided to bring a few friends with us because we had spoken so highly of the restaurant. We arrived a little after 1:00 p.m. on a Sunday, and the restaurant was fairly empty with only a handful of tables occupied. We were seated immediately, and our waitress was friendly throughout the meal. Each couple ordered pizzas along with appetizers and drinks. We ordered the Italian salad but were accidentally brought the Green Goddess instead. It was a harmless mistake, and since we had enjoyed that salad during our previous visit, we happily kept it. Our friends received their pizzas, and we assumed ours would follow shortly. Thirty minutes passed, and by then our friends were nearly finished eating. Meanwhile, we noticed several tables that had arrived after us receiving their food before we did. We asked our waitress to check on our order. She went back to the kitchen and returned, explaining that our pizza had apparently been forgotten and was only then being made. She assured us it would take no more than 10 minutes. Fifteen more minutes passed, and our pizza still hadn't arrived. Since we had a clear view of the kitchen, it didn't appear there was any urgency to get our order out. At that point, after waiting nearly an hour since placing our order, we had to cancel it because we had other plans and couldn't stay any longer. Our waitress apologized and removed the pizza from our bill, but that was the only resolution offered. While we appreciated her kindness, we left the restaurant disappointed and still hungry. Mistakes happen, and forgetting an order is understandable from time to time. What was most disappointing was how the situation was handled. After waiting an hour for a forgotten order, we had hoped for a more meaningful effort to make things right beyond simply removing the item we never received. It's unfortunate because we genuinely loved this restaurant after our first visit and were excited to introduce it to our friends. Thankfully, our friends enjoyed their meals, but this experience left us hesitant to return. Great pizza is important, but great service and how a restaurant responds when things go wrong are what keep customers coming back.
