    Abeja Cabernet Sauvignon
    Jason F.

    Wow! I just happened by and decided to stop in this new wine bar. It's about a block or two away from the Pike Place market. I sat at the bar and had a difficult time picking out the right wine for me. The staff was super helpful asking me about what I like and landed on a great Cab, Abeja was my first glass and it was perfect. I had skipped lunch and they've got a great selection of food. I went for one of the Happy Hour specials, the Mac and Cheese and it was pretty good. The place is nice with a great ambiance close to the center of downtown. Highly recommend!

    Such a great spot. Lots of cozy spots to sit and enjoy wine flights or glasses. Lots of wines to peruse. Very friendly and informative service. All the wines are produced by women and/or members of the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. And the wines I tried were all delicious. I had the red wine flight consisting of a Merlot, blend, cab, and Syrah, as well as a glass of the WeRise cab. The music is mostly 90's and early 00's R&B from Aaliyah to Toni Braxton to DruHill to Keyshia Cole. All in all, it's a comfortable wine lounge that also offers small bites and beer, cider, vermouth, and non-alcoholic wines. And the location is very choice.

    The ambiance was amazing and cozy. Good music and lovely lighting with plush seating. The service was fabulous and the servers were all really knowledgeable and asked about allergies. The wine was fantastic and I love that they support women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ winemakers. They were out of some of the snacks so we didn't try the food unfortunately but highly recommend and will be back.

    Celebrate Every Day of the Year!!!!

She recommended a Mezcal cocktail that was a great start! Surprising because it wasn't smoky typical to Mezcal, just perfectly balanced. Exactly what I wanted. For my main, I went with the short rib pappardelle. It was incredibly rich, and the meat was cooked to perfection. Hailee was attentive and made me feel welcome at the table, which isn't always the case when you're a party of one. Incredible service and an all-around top-tier meal. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Seattle!

Sommelier service was disappointing: chose to share a bottle that was listed on the food menu as a good pairing with one of our dishes. Sommelier brought out the bottle, and when told that it did not appear to be what we had requested from the menu, replied that it was. A closer look revealed that it was not the same wine as it was from a different French winery, though it was the same varietal; we should have been told this in the beginning.

    Another Pike Place Gem! Wines of Washington Tasting Room is a must try. This is easily one of the…read moremost unique tasting rooms I've been to. Amazing wines, creative cocktails, solid snacks, great service and even games. You could wander in "for one flight" and somehow emerge six hours later wondering where the time went (in the best way.) On the wine side, they offer several thoughtfully curated flights, or you can build your own adventure. Which I highly recommend. The dessert wines alone are incredible, and the selection of aromatic whites is seriously impressive. No matter your palate, there's something here that will make you pause, sip again, and nod approvingly. And then there are the wine-based cocktails that deserve their own standing ovation. A wine tasting room doing cocktails this well is rare. We tried the Espresso Martini, the French 125, and the Lavender Lemon Martini, and every single one was better than I expected grape-based cocktails to be. Like, pleasantly shocked. Bottom line: if you're anywhere near Pike Place and enjoy wine (or cocktails, or fun, or all of the above) this place is a must. I can almost guarantee it'll become your new favorite spot.

This used to be one of my favorite spots at Pike Market. For years, I made it a tradition to bring out-of-town guests here. Over time, I have brought more than 100 people here. It had a charming, warm, and welcoming feel--like a hidden gem in the city. It oozed with kindness and fun. Unfortunately, that has completely flipped! Since the new manager, Anthony, took over, the entire atmosphere has shocked me. What was once inviting now is rigid, cold, and unwelcoming. The biggest issue, however, was the way I was treated. The interaction felt unnecessarily rude and dismissive, which was both surprising and disappointing given my long history with this place. Great establishments are built not just on food or ambiance, but on how people are treated--and that piece is clearly missing now. It's especially unfortunate because the rest of the team still shows glimpses of what this place used to be. Jordon, was genuinely kind and pleasant, but one positive interaction couldn't outweigh the manager's miserable attitude. It's hard to see a place that once felt so special lose its charm like this. I know the winemaker Paul is a great person - so it is hard to leave such a terrible review, but at the same time, if this was my place -- I would want to know what was happening behind the scenes at my establishment. I truly hope leadership reflects on how customer experience is being handled moving forward. Don't give money to places that have toxic attitudes and are joy crushers! Life is too short and far too precious! In the meantime, there are many nearby spots that consistently deliver both quality and incredible hospitality. Skip this place, and instead go to Browne Family Vineyards Tasting Room, The Lonely Siren, The Pink Door, Place Pigalle, or Maximilien. Those places are working very hard to create an exceptional experience!
