This is my review on my second time at unwind. I wanted to give them 5/5 because their food is super good but on Saturday my service fell a bit short. We walked in just me and my friend around 7 on Saturday. It wasn't too busy and there were plenty of seats but the man at the bar said we could only sit in the bar. Kinda weird since later another party of 2 was able to sit on the couch area. Our server took awhile to get to us and then was rushing us when speaking to us. I asked for a sweeter sav blanc and sampled 2 kinds. On the second sample he didnt pour one for my friend so we had to taste from the same glass. I didnt like any of them and when i asked to sample the rose he was snappy and said i can only give you two samples. I ended up ordering one of the samples i tried but didnt really like it. The food however was amazing. I would come back for this. But when I come back I would ask for a different server. read more

I've frequented Unwine'd quite a few times now since they have opened; from Happy Hour Oysters, to delicious dinners (their lamb riblets are incredible!). When it came time to celebrate my wine-loving, young aunt's 50th birthday, I thought the Lounge at Unwine'd could work. Little did I know just how fantastic it would be... TLDR; amazing food, wine, and staff 10/10 will continue to rave about this place! EVERYTHING for our event from initial communication, from the curated menu, wine list suggestions, customizations, up to the candles on the tables was done with so much care and a personal touch. Katerina, our coordinator is fantastic to work with and truly understood the sophisticated vibe and warm family feel we wanted for our event. Luckily, their space is beautifully designed already so our 1920's themed party worked out very well! Melanie our waitress was very attentive through the whole evening. We had the space to ourselves and plenty of incredible food. Please consider supporting this lovely local family business! One of the best in SF! read more

I went here on a Saturday around 6:30pm and there was no wait! Anyways, this bar looked small from the outside, but it was actually quite big once you walk in and we were quickly seated. We ordered the Italiano Pinsa, Fresh Oyster, Bruschetta Prosciutto, Salumi Cheese Platter, Holiday Spritz, Non-alcoholic Spritz, and also ordered a Tiramisu for dessert. Everything tasted good and my Holiday Spritz drink wasn't too strong in alcohol, but that's a good thing. Out of the food items we ordered that day, the Italiano Pinsa was my favorite! The Italiano Pinsa is basically like a flatbread pizza item. I always love trying pizzas, so I enjoyed eating it since that helped fill me up. Also, when you order the oysters, they ask you have many you want since the menu lists the price per oyster. I'd recommend this place! We only chose those small items, but they also serve other items like pasta and and even lamb chops too! All the food I tried that day tasted good, but I think it's nice how theres other more filling items too. This bar also has a few couches to lounge around and I love how it stays open late since that makes it a fun place to hangout. read more

We were pretty disappointed with this experience overall. We purchased tickets for the truffle event and were seated right away, but then waited about 20 minutes for the first course--which ended up being a single chip with crème fraîche and a small amount of caviar served on a large plate. Waiting that long for one chip felt unreasonable and set the tone for the night. The rest of the courses were just okay, but they also took a long time to come out. You could see the staff running around frantically, which made the whole evening feel disorganized. Since this was a ticketed event and not open to the public, the restaurant would have known exactly how many guests were attending, so the pacing issues were surprising. For the price point, this event was positioned as a high-level dining experience, but it fell very short. A $400+ ticketed dinner simply wasn't worth the cost. We've been to many similar events and high-end restaurants in the past, and this was by far one of the most disappointing experiences we've had. A couple of highlights: the filet mignon carpaccio was delicious, and the truffle pasta was excellent. Unfortunately, nothing else really hit the mark. Several items came out cold, and overall the menu didn't impress beyond those two dishes. Cleanliness was also an issue. The bathroom hand dryer was visibly dirty and full of grime, which didn't give a great impression--especially during a special event where expectations are higher. We won't be returning. This spot seems better suited for wine and small cheese plates rather than a full dining experience. On a positive note, the surrounding area is very cute and walkable. We ended the night at a nearby bar called Sherwood, which was clean, welcoming, and had great cocktails--highly recommend that spot if you're in the area. read more

Great spot with phenomenal service! Stopped in here for a drink and to have a couple of apps before dinner. It has a great vibe inside and an extensive wine list. We got their bruschetta and prawns and both were very tasty! Don't think you could go wrong with any of the menu items, but when in town will definitely stop by! read more

Five stars across the board! For Food, service and yes even the ambiance. Unwine'd SF is a lively spot to get a great meal and even better tasting wine! I went for the lamb chops and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended. Our server was polite and made some great recommendations as well. Thanks! The only wrinkle in the evening is looking for parking (if you're visiting the area like us) so getting in to the area early is recommended or use public transit. Overall: Definitely on my short list to try again on our next visit. Do stop by and enjoy! read more

Yummy. So so good. Would go back for another special occasion. Really love the ambiance and basic food selection.

Stopped in for a quick drink at Unwine'd, conveniently located right across from the West Portal Muni station. It's a great spot to unwind after hopping off the train. They serve only wine and beer, and the beer I ordered was nice and cold--just what I needed. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect place to relax. read more

I found this by accident because I was craving for wine that day. I went down on West Portal Station Muni and walked around the stores. Boom! I found a cute wine bar close to the muni line. The oysters are $2 dollars on a happy hour. 6 pieces maximum. I can say it's super fresh, clean an yummy. I love how the vinegar tasted, it's a must for me for my condiments. The wine is also on happy hour I think $2 off? I got a piñot grigio. I came in early around 5:30 pm, and when I left the place is packed. The ambiance is cozy, they have more seating area in the back for more quiet setting. The restroom smells nice and clean. read more

Amazing Wine Bar, this place is a hidden gem! Tucked away in West Portal, this is definitely a popular spot for happy hour. Their happy hour is every day from 4 to 6 PM. You can get $2/oysters, 25% off HH bottles, $5/beers, and $8/limoncello shots. I haven't had lemon cello shots since traveling to Italy, it's not common to find in San Francisco. However, their shots are delicious! We absolutely loved their wine selection. The co-owners are Italian and Greek, and they have a great selection of old and new old wines to suit your palate. I highly recommend trying the Greek wines because you likely won't get them at too many places. We started off our happy hour with some small bites. The shrimp scampi was so flavorful, the fried zucchini was perfectly battered with a delicious yogurt sauce, and their Greek salad was so authentic and refreshing. We moved on to ordering the lamb chops, and I have to say this is some of the best lamb chops in the Bay Area! Not gamey, super flavorful. Their Roman styled pizza was to die for. I ordered the Emilia-Romagna which had handmade Italian sausage. I'm still dreaming of this cheesy pizza. I was in love! My husband is WSET certified, and he commended their wine selection, and the knowledge of the servers in recommending well balanced wines to go with our meals. They also have a cute little shop area if you would like to purchase any of the wines. Their back room is super Instagram and I heard that it's also available for rent for private events. Highly recommend that you check out this hidden gem! You won't be disappointed. ==== Hi I'm @jetsetjanine. 100+ country world traveler and 100+ Michelin Star diner.

Cute and clearly a local hot spot. Went during happy hour so it was busy. House wine is tasty. Never had a chilled Pinot but really enjoyed it. Food is nibbly and yummy. A little noisy because of the tram and the number of people but overall lovely. read more

Nice ambience, great wine selection, and charcuterie plate was an abundant and delicious.

Absolutely unreal experience. Champagne was flowing, vibes were on point, and the white truffles did not stop. When they say truffle night, they mean it, shaved generously over multiple courses until it literally felt like they made it rain Alba white truffles. What really stood out was the value. For the quality, the amount of truffle, and the overall execution, the pricing was more than fair. You could tell this wasn't a gimmick or a stingy tasting this was a full-on indulgent night done right. read more

Date: Thursday, May 9th, 2024 Time: around 6:30pm Party of: 3 What: Pre-Dinner Drinks and Snacks *Falcone Syrah ($17) *Leviathan Cab GLS ($20) *Spreads Platter ($20) *Brut Rose GLS ($14) *Bardos Tempranillo GLS ($15) *Amethystos GLS ($18) *Château La Croix Montlabert, Saint Émilion Grand Cru: glass ($20) *Château La Croix Montlabert, Saint Émilion Grand Cru: bottle ($78) *40% Off Bottle (-$31.20) I was meeting up some friends. We were having dinner nearby, but decided to check out Unwine'd beforehand. They got here first and grabbed the couch by the front window. They have happy hour until 6pm which they were trying to make. Unfortunately they were too late, so we didn't partake in their HH deals. I got the glass of bubbles and the last red listed. Both were good. Exactly what I was craving at the time. Tho they did have bottle specials which we did not notice until the end. So if you are getting something that that's included in the 40% off, I'd say buy the bottle. A much better deal since a glass of my red was $20, while the bottle was $46.80. For tipping, I'd be careful of tipping on anything to go. I realized we tipped on the bottle we bought to bring to dinner as well as everything we consumed here. They have those portable CC machines, so it's easy to just hit a percentage without thinking about it. If I got a real receipt, I probably would have written out an amount versus just pushing a percentage button. Good spot to grab some wine. Would love to come back and check out their HH specials.

Unwine'd has to be one of my favorite wine bars in the city. Such cute casual vibe with a great happy hour as well 4-6pm. I never take photos here because I'm so in the moment but next time I will. Highly recommend and I don't give out 5 stars often. The staff is lovely and super sweet. Can't wait to go again read more

This was my 2nd time visiting Unwine'd and it was just as amazing at the first. Starting off with a bottle of the house whites and the prosciutto Burrata *chefs kiss* was so great! The server was very nice and checked in with us regularly. It is a very chill atmosphere for a Saturday night. I will be going back read more

Super cute wine bar that has a great happy hour deal! The ambiance is nice, there are tables for a more intimate setting or bar seating. They have a great selection of wines, from reds to whites to rose and more! I went for a glass of white wine - the Lenotti which was a Pinot Grigio. I loved it, it had a subtle sweetness to it, fruity, and not dry. My friends and I shared the Bruschetta Prosciutto which we all thought was delicious. The bruschetta was packed with flavor from the prosciutto and burrata on top as well as the sauce drizzle. read more

Came into Unwine'd on a whim with a friend and ended up having one of the best meals we've had in a long time. From the moment we walked in, the space felt cozy and welcoming, and the service was thoughtful without ever feeling overbearing. We ordered a few dishes to share, and everything was outstanding. The lamb chops were hands-down some of the best I've ever had -- perfectly cooked, incredibly flavorful. And I have been craving the bruschetta every day since we went in. The wine selection is excellent and well-curated, and our server, Katerina, gave spot-on recommendations that paired perfectly with the food. This is the kind of neighborhood spot you want to keep coming back to, whether it's for a quick drink or awesome meal. We'll absolutely be back. read more

I rarely write Yelp reviews, but this place deserves 5 stars for the service alone. Thank you for our very kind female server who was so warm and friendly even when we had to leave in a rush. Hope you know that we really appreciated you. Will be back next time to give you more of my money. read more

Food was really good and the ambience is pretty nice except for the televisions. Makes it feel more like a bar rather than a lounge space. The sofas and leather chairs and the entire place is quite nice. What distracts, is the TV with sports on -it just kills the feeling and vibe. The food is delicious, for the most part everybody is really nice there except for a dark haired guy that's been there for years. Maybe he's the brother or something but he's pretty snarky. He's got some attitude and that should be adjusted. I always try to sit in an area opposite of where I see him serving. Other than that, it's a great addition to the neighborhood. I love that they serve some of the top hits from back in the day at Orexi. read more

The last thing I ever want to do is write a negative review about a West Portal business but this one is long overdue. The last two times I visited the wine bar the owners/managers were extremely rude and unwelcoming. During a pub crawl event on WP, several friends and I decided not to use our tickets for the event and opted for a quieter venue to relax with a glass of wine. The female manager directed our server not to serve our wine in glasses and instead offered plastic cups. She was concerned inebriated patrons from the pub crawl would migrate into the wine bar and break the glasses. No one in our party had even been drinking before arriving and the tables around us had glasses (as one would expect in a wine bar). I went to the bar and asked for a glass and the female manager acted as if I had asked for a million dollars. Eventually, a server gave me a glass but it took multiple requests. My companions each had to go to the bar to request glasses too. This weekend I went back with several friends. The male manager was equally rude and unwelcoming. He acted like it was an imposition to seat us and was abrupt when we were ordering. I am a fan of West Portal and want to support the merchants. I also have an expectation that the owners of a wine bar will be cordial and create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes customers want to return time and time again. I don't want to support an establishment that doesn't appreciate its customers. In this case they act as if customers are an imposition. Next time my friends want to meet for a drink, I will suggest we go somewhere that appreciates their patrons. Unwined-two thumbs down. read more

The cutest wine spot! Ambiance-wise a fancy lounge setting on the quieter/cozier side and ideal for casual catch ups and small bites. A bottle of wine served 4 of us each two glasses. The small cheese board pairing was phenomenal and the best decision of the night. My favorites on the board were the garlicky pickles, chocolates, and truffle cheese. It also came with nuts, jams, honey, dates, grapes and of course more cheese. read more

We came here around 5:30pm on Saturday. The place was pretty empty but filled up quickly. We picked a Pinot for our first glasses but was disappointed to learn that their tap was not working. We tried two different italian reds and a couple of french wines, all were very good! We were most pleased with the food! Turns out some of the items on the menu were from the Orexi Greek restaurant nearby that that had closed. We got the Salumi and Charcuterie board, the Octopus and a Pinsa. Everything was solid! We would have given this place 5 stars but the service experience was a bit off. Our server Desiree was fantastic. As the place filled up she was running around crazy trying to take care of the guest while the two other staff in the restaurant did little to help her out. One gal was chitchatting about cosmetics while the other person was labeling and pricing wines..something IMO that could be done during downtime. Overall the food and wines were superb so we'll be back. read more

This place is FABULOUS!!! From the ambiance, to the service, to their food and wine selection...everything was phenomenal. I loved the new decor since the remodel. They have a spacious area in the back with lots of seating. They even have a tv and will play local games if they're on that night. The food was spectacular. We tried a couple of different entrees and a pizza. Everything was Sooo good! And their wine selection is extensive. We tried a rose and a red, and I really enjoyed both. This place is a great addition to the neighborhood. I don't live near by, but will definitely return to West Portal just to come here again. read more

Everything here was great! The happy hour is definitely not one to miss. I had the oyster which were awesome.

So glad I found Unwined on West Portal! It's mom and pop owned and you can really tell with how family oriented the service is! When you first walk in, it's like you're walking in to a warm home but with the perfect aesthetic for a girls night out or date night. The staff is really knowledgeable when it comes to the various types of wine offered. I'm not a huge wine person, but Katerina had the most delicious recommendation (of course I'm blanking on the name now, hopefully she remembers next time we go! Haha!) I got the lamb riblets and OH MY GOD, these are literally to die for. The meat falls right off the bone and melts in your mouth! 10/10 highly recommend, can't wait to go back! read more

Walked by this spot several times while walking around West Portal. Finally decided to try it tonight. First of all, it's kind of unassuming from the front, but once inside it's beautifully appointed and very comfortable. I'd like to know who their designer is as I'd like to hire them to do our home. Anyway, we visited on a beautiful day and all the windows were open. It was still happy hour and I was glad to see that some of the wines were on tap! We both got a glass of white and got a good pour. Both wines were really good. We also ordered a salad and a margarita pinsa (which is like a flat bread pizza). Both were delicious. Very light and flavorful. Service was good and prices were reasonable. I think we will be back for a visit in the near future! read more

A date night, weeknight, and small group gem! Went to Unwine'd for a date night. Food was good, tried a few of the appetizers..the hot pepper feta (with a name I did t even try to pronounce!) was really good. Innovative pizzas and a few glasses of wine made for a great night out. Service, also good - our server found the right balance of leaving us be and getting us what we needed. Very knowledgeable of the wine list and made some great recommendations! Ambiance- the front dining room and bar are pretty casual but the back room with the fireplace and chesterfields is really sweet and had a fun vibe. Even though we were seated next to a relatively large/loud group we were still able to speak comfortably. read more

Really wanted to like it as I had my wedding reception there and my husband recently passed. Came in on a Friday around 4:30 - ordered a glass - was going to have food but couldn't get their attention. Found them a little curt and frustrated as they were tying bags behind the bar. Definitely not welcoming or friendly. Perhaps just a busy moment. May try again for old time's sake. 10 mins tried to catch their attention. Would give 2.5 but that's not an option so let's round it up. read more
