    Getting started for a pleasant wine tasting!

    Great Wine selection! Chardonnay, Cab! Did NOT disappoint. We will be back! The owner Patrease is great!

    This place has been on my list for a while and I was finally able to make a visit. Please be advised, the parking lot is small. If you are unable to get a spot in the lot, I am sure there's parking on the residential street. The inside is also fairly small but there's an outdoor patio with more seating. I kind of expected different from this place but thats not to say I didn't enjoy. While I love drinking wine, I wouldn't say I'm a pro wine drinker so having recommendations from the bartender was a plus. I decided on the flight with four wines on the "sweeter" side. Each are 2oz pours and the price is based on the kind of wine. Depending on the kind of the chosen, a flight is around $16. They have a food menu that includes cheeses, salads, pizzas and others but since I wasn't hungry, I didn't order anything. They also have a Wine Club that offers a variety of perks from discounts to free tastings. I'd like to revisit to see how the food as well as considering joining the club. This should probably be something mentioned while there. I am only aware of the club from visiting their website.

    Accommodated me and my friends (party of 8) with short notice. They were very hospitable and pleasant babe wine was good and the food was good. The owner was very kind and came to check in on us. Our waiter was knowledgeable, attentive and pleasant.

    A cute little date night spot. If you're looking for a local wine bar this is the place to go, great customer service. Just remember to put on mosquito repellent if you decide to sit on the patio. Pasta was ok, the chicken was a bit dry. The flat bread is good though I would get that again.

    I enjoyed my visit to Wine Sensation. The atmosphere was wonderful. I found it to be a nice chill spot to hangout with my friend and talk. The noise level was perfect. The cheese plate was delicious. We also ordered the spinach dip. Which was sooo good. Will definitely come back. The prices are just right.

    We really liked it here. Hadn't explored Round Rock before, so we were pleasantly surprised to find the downtown area and its chill vibe. Wine Sensation has a rustic feel. We arrived shortly before closing. Since it's a tapas sort of place, and it was so late, the restaurant was mostly empty, except for a group of women at a table inside and a couple outside on the deck. The outside deck is spacious with tables and string lights for a calming feel. Soft music plays in the background. My only suggestion would be to add a row of tall bushes to block the view and sound of the street and make it more homey. We sat outside after eating but enjoyed our meal at the bar. I was put off by the bartender, at first, as he seemed kind of aloof. But he warmed up quickly. Games, like Rubiks Cube, line the bar. Entertaining while you wait for your food. Though we couldn't figure our game out and had to ask the bartender for help. The husband, who knows way more about wine than I do, said the wy list was good. I just liked that were wines from all over the world, because I tend to like ones from South America and Europe best. We order cheese and meat plates, bacon-wrapped dates and a salad, all delicious and fresh. We planned to go to dinner afterward, but serving sizes were big enough that we were no longer hungry. Wine Sensation is extremely dog-friendly (love!) So much so that they have a Doggie Meal on the menu, allow dogs on the patio and on certain days, dogs eat free. One of our favorite places since coming to Austin.

    A little bit ago I went to wine sensation with a friend to a complementary wine tasting. When we walked into the establishment, it seemed to be a bit cramped. We waited about 4 minutes to be greeted by someone at the front. We advised the staff member who greeted us that we were there for a wine tasting and were taken outside to the back of the establishment to an area with wooden picnic tables and seating. Once seated outside, we were greeted by a server within 10 minutes. We advised the waiter that we were there for the wine tasting and he pointed us to what seemed to be a rolling bar where a member of the staff was providing a sampling of three different wines. The "sommelier" seemed to be somewhat knowledgeable about the wines but left many questions unanswered. After the short tasting, my guest and I went back to the picnic table where we were seated and ordered the bacon-wrapped dates, bruschetta and a humus, pita and carrot plate. Overall, the tapas menu to accompany the wine is a bit lacking and the vine selection and sampling is a half-step up from HEB (actually HEB has more vino).

The food was genuinely excellent, and the service was warm and attentive throughout. The bed was also a standout -- more comfortable than what I've experienced at most four-star hotels. I also loved the in-room Nespresso machine, which was a great touch. The only drawbacks are the location and setting. It's not ideal if you want to be close to a more metropolitan, walkable area, and being right on the creek means there can be quite a few bugs, especially in the evening. Overall, I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a relaxing, stylish getaway with great food and very comfortable rooms.

This charming, quaint boutique hotel is located in a residential neighborhood in Round Rock, TX. The Ruby Hotel & Bar is situated along Brushy Creek in historic downtown Round Rock. The hotel has 39 uniquely designed rooms and suites, in the suburbs of Austin, TX. The hotel blends mid-century modern design with natural surroundings, creating a chic vibe. The property is distinctly divided into to major buildings...the hotel and the bar. There is a random small building up front also...not sure what that buildings for. There is also outdoor seating, which would be pleasant in the summer. Last night we had freezing temperatures, so sub-optimal for seating outside. When we entered the bar, we felt transported to another place in time. Retro looking furniture at the entry with finger dialed phones...my nieces and nephews would likely not have any idea what these little machines called telephones were. The bar was a mix of old - building built in the 1960s....new - modern mirrors and bar. There was signage at the front of the bar that stated to seat yourself and place your order from the bar (different set up...for sure). We ordered the hummus plate minus pita bread plus more cucumbers. Alan, our server was very accommodating to make that switch. We had herbal hot tea (chamomile and pomegranate berry). We listened to the 3 person band, who sang music from Johnny Cash to Bob Marley and so many different genres in between. What a lovely evening...date night score!
