Wine Sensation - Ate it all, so good!!!! - Wine Bars Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

I believe this is one of the most underhyped establishments in Round Rock. The service has always been friendly and tonight really blew my mind. We ordered the house special Antonelli cheese plate and it was perfect plus the chef staff came out to our patio table to personally present each cheese. Oh, and a patio that is well shaded. Well done! read more

Wine Sensation - House Antonelli cheese plate - Wine Bars Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

Staff is always so helpful and welcoming. Happy hour is pretty good, but wish they had a few more offerings. Food is always amazing! Their flatbreads are a must, especially the Margaret. They also offer fun tasting and pairings throughout the year. I love that they include tip inn their prices too. read more

It is so nice having a great little wine bar in Round Rock! The wine selection is good, the service is great as is the food. Definitely a pleasant surprise and I can't wait to go back! read more

When Noelle told me that there was a wine bar next to the Target near her neighborhood, I was in disbelief. A wine bar. In a Target strip mall. We had to check it out. The place is ADORABLE! Walking in, you're transported to somewhere not in a Target strip mall. Someplace far far away from the hustle and bustle of the I35 corridor. Being late on a Friday afternoon, the place was pretty empty and, as a matter of fact, we were the only patrons for a little while. There are a lot of choices for seating, including a pretty long bar and several high top tables. We opted for a couple comfy chairs in a corner and were quickly attended to. Wine selection (by the glass) is decent and amazingly inexpensive. If you don't know what kind you like, a flight option is available for around $2 per sample, prices are noted on the menu. Live music on the weekends (evidenced by signage) could, perhaps, make this tiny space really loud. I hope that they take that into consideration on those nights! There are also food options, but we didn't try them this time around. Next time, for sure. And there will be a next time. read more

When you first arrive, you enter this calm chilled serene. Not too much cork and wine decor like some places that let you know you're at a wine bar. I liked it. We sat at the bar and had a couple of glasses. The bartender gave us a couple of samples before deciding which we actually like. I'm a red wine drinker so I ordered a Texas merlot. Wanted to try something different. It wasn't bad. This place is a great place for conversation, not so much people watching. I think you can actually reserve some table and they also have a room where you can have a small party. I will try this place again with more people where we can chill and chit chat. read more

I like their new location but be warned their parking lot is a hot mess right now as they are finishing up the final touches on the move and renovation. It's a bigger space and is laid out nicely...we belong to their wine club and love that we can sample different wines from different regions every month along with a light dinner. Makes us feel very cultured....anyways the owners and service has always been excellent. read more

It is wonderful to have a local, easily-accessible bar to grab a bite to eat and sip on some wine with friends. While Wine Sensations is not in my neighborhood, but it is in a very good friend's neighborhood. So, we gave it a try. Wine Sensation is a small, romantic, intimate, restaurant and wine bar in a strip mall off I-35 and 45 (next to the Target). The lighting is dim and there is ample seating for two. The wine menu is large enough to make a selection, but not extensive. If you are looking for an extensive wine list with wines from Italy, France, Chile, Argentina, and New Zealand, you may be disappointed. There are some wines from outside of the US, however, most of the selection of reds are from California. While I think the wine menu rotates, my favorite red was the Filus Malbec from Argentina. Unless you are accustom to bad wine, I would steer clear off the Matua Pinot Noir from New Zealand. Matua has a nice Sauvignon Blanc, but the niceness does not carry over into their red family. read more

Really , Really love this place. We have been coming here for years and were nervous but hopeful with the new owners taking over. We have been very happy with the results. The great staff has remained and that was a huge benefit. The menu has been going through some changes, but the additions have been unique and delicious. There seems to be new homemade specials all the time and we have enjoyed them all. The wine selection is still top notch and has great value. The great atmosphere and live entertainment continue and you will find us here usually once a week. Again, don't let the strip mall fool you. Wine Sensation is a gem and a must go for anyone in the area who loves a good glass of wine and some delicious food. Tell them "the Duke" sent ya. :-) read more

Went back a few months ago and understand it changed hands since last we were there. If not, the service level had gone down a lot. My party was very disappointed as the owners acted like we were bothering them. They were more interested in the few regulars sitting at the bar than helping us navigate the menu and wine offerings. It felt a big "clubby" and guess were weren't in the club. I guess they now moved to a new location closer to downtown which they are renovating. I hope their attitude gets better with a new spot, we will try again I guess, but it will take some convincing to get my wife back in. read more

Went here recently for happy hour and appetizers! Good wine, and the lady originally taking care of us was fabulous. She talked to us about the wines, and tried to find us something that we would like. Pros: +Willing to let us try a small tasting prior to committing to a glass (may be partially due to the fact that it was a slow night) +Appetizers were tasty, we had the edamame, the caprese salad, and the goat cheese. These appetizers were really good to share and were good portion sizes. +Truffle flatbread was delicious, and I ended up sharing that. +Wines: I really liked both cabernet sav selections, they number their wine selection 1-20 (and the wines get redder as you go down the list). 19 and 20 are both Cab sav, and both are smooth, but #20 has a smoother finish than #19. I always say that good wine is wine that you enjoy (regardless of what it is). I personally liked both of these +pleasant environment- can see how others have said it can get loud when very crowded, there is also a porch for wine drinking Cons: -Appetizers were somewhat expensive, even with a dollar off for happy hour -Parking seemed to get very packed shortly after we got there, although parking somewhere downtown and walking would seem like an ideal alternative -One word of caution, when looking for happy hour pricing- ensure that you pick wines off of their numbered list. There are a few (unnumbered wines) that are not part of happy hour that are in the middle of the menu (notably some of the sweet/sparkling whites ie moscato). Overall, good place. I will be back read more

I shared a bottle of wine with a friend and ordered a cheese plate. The cheese plate was nice but over priced. They served small portions of grapes and pecans with the three slices of cheese and charged $25.00. Then an extra $2.00 for gluten free crackers. This will be my last visit. read more

My wife and I finished an anniversary dinner early and didn't want to call it a night yet, but didn't really want to go to any of the 'usual' bars around town either...so we took to the Internet in search for something new. We thought this was still a Vino 100, but come to find out...it's a highly rated wine bar!!! Right up our alley. What can I say. It was intimate, well lit and decorated, and boasted a good selection of wines and local beers. We will surely be back...if not for the wine, then definitely for the jukebox anyone who was coming of age in the 90's will love. read more

This place is a gem. It's cozy and comfortable inside with a beautiful deck outside. They have an amazing wine selection and fantastic food. The employees are super friendly and outgoing. Barbara the owner is so nice and is so welcoming. They always have fun activities throughout the year from Game nights, award show night, and movie sing a longs. I highly recommend checking this place out located in Round Rock, Texas. Update 7/27: I just had a surprise 40th Birthday party here and it was fantastic. Barbara and the crew were on top of it. I highly recommend have gatherings at this place. It's got a lot to offer. read more

I was in Austin for a few days recently and happened to stumble upon Wine Sensation in Round Rock, and I'm so glad I did! This place is great! The owners-- Barbra and Mark-- really know their wines. I'm a member of a few wineries in my home state of California and like to go wine tasting now and then. I found out that they, too, are members of many wineries in that area and know more about the wines and vintages from that area than many locals! Very impressed. We also tasted a few New Zealand wines that they found during a wine tasting excursion they took in New Zealand. The flat bread pizza was great, too, as was their selection of IPA. Should I move to Round Rock? read more

Awesome new place!! Staff, Wine & food is great!! Only problem for them is going to be the parking :-( read more

Not impressed. Service left a lot of room for improvement. Food was just OK. Atmosphere lacks pizzazz. The water was good. I think we are one and done here. read more

My husband and I were huge fans until we heard the owner say with disgust, "I don't know WHY they sat at a 4-top when there's only 2 of them!" in response to a person looking for a place for four...when only two in her party were currently at the establishment. She made the other couple move, all the while huffing and puffing. Isolated incident, but it is what it is. And believe me, I understand being flustered because your tiny place is jam packed full...but come on. You can't treat people that way, no matter what. ::sigh:: Don's food is amazing there; it's a shame we had to quit going because of that...though, truth be known, we could hardly hear ourselves speak once they moved the taller tables out and added all one level of tables. I guess it was just our time to go. read more

Meh, not incredible but not awful. We were hungry so we opted for some tapas. We got the edamame and the meatballs. Didn't think either were really anything different than something that could be warmed up in the microwave at home. Also, it is one large room, and there is no carpet or rugs. Being a wine bar, it attracts more women than men, who after drinking got a bit loud the night we were there. The high pitch laughs and screams can get a bit old, but without any dividers or rugs, that sound travels right into your ears unhindered. Need to go back to try the wines. Menu looked like they had a decent offering, but our experience with the food has left us not dying to get back. read more

This place is awesome, highly recommended. The Wine Club is fun and the food is interesting and good.

What a great little gem, hidden in a shopping complex. It has a nice, cozy, atmosphere with nice retro tunes at a nice low decibel level. Perfect place for a date or to hang out with friends. Staff is friendly, helpful, and very engaging. Can't wait for my next stop there. read more

It's nice to have a spot to go for a glass of wine in downtown Round Rock and hope they succeed. That being said we have two issues. The first is that their selection of wine isn't very extensive and wish there were more choice of reds. The second problem is that it's loud inside when the place is busy. You can barely hear the other people at your table because the concrete floors and bare walls bounce all the sound around and nothing soft absorbs it. It may be better outside but haven't tried the deck. Small menu options are okay but there is no real kitchen so cooking is limited to finger foods. The owner is friendly and knowledgable and tries to make people feel welcome. read more

Very cute place. Great wines and friendly, knowledgeable service. We'll definitely be back!

This is a cool little wine bar just north of the central downtown Round Rock strip. It's a breathe of fresh air if you are like me and get tired quickly of going to sports bars. I myself am a sucker for sweet white wines and they always have a Riesling or Moscato on the menu. If you have more refined tastes than I, fear not, they have plenty of dry whites, sparkling wines, and a whole selection of reds on offer. I think they change the wine selections around once a month. The prices are a little steep, probably about $9-$12 a glass, so it can help to go during happy hour to save on wine, beer, and snacks. The food menu here is exactly what you'd want for a wine bar, and it's all tasty. You absolutely must have the bacon wrapped dates, the cheese plate, and some prosciutto wrapped asparagus. For bigger meals they offer mac and cheese, a lot of different flatbreads, and a few other items. The staff is nice, attentive, and pretty good at suggesting options if you're not much of a wine buff. They have a large outdoor patio that's great for relaxing and getting some fresh air. I believe it's pet friendly too. Sometimes they do cool events like movie nights, wine tasting, or special occasion meals like for Valentine's Day. If you haven't been, definitely check it out! read more

Hidden jem in an otherwise boring shopping center! Dark and cozy inside, saddle up to the bar and meet Barbara, the sweet owner who will recommend a delicious vino. I had the bridlewood chardonnay and it was lovely. The hummus trio should not be missed. I also had a delicious spinach and chicken salad, very good (only complaint is it eventually got too garlicky for me).. You won't be sorry you popped in this little treasure of a wine bar! read more

My husband and I love this little gem near downtown Round Rock. Food is almost tapas style and we always order a couple items to share. The truffle mac n cheese is the best ever! Everything else is also very good - from the flatbread pizzas to the charcuterie plate and the staff is super friendly and accommodating! So glad we found this wonderful establishment when we moved to RR a few years ago! read more

We are new to the area and stopped in to check it out. What an amazing place! They have a great selection of wines and serve food - meatballs were fantastic. The people working here were very welcoming and helpful in providing recommendations. As were the other patrons at the bar, very friendly regulars who provided great conversation and good local knowledge. I can't wait to go back and spend some time out on the big patio. read more

Great by the glass selection, wine flight of WHATEVER you choose, relaxing, laid back, extremely friendly service. Came here for my birthday , sat on the peaceful patio and enjoyed a flight of 3 fantastic reds and the shrimp Diablo! Fantastic! Can't wait to come back! read more

Wine Sensation - #17 Malbec paired with the Diablo shrimp is AMAZING! - Wine Bars Near Me - Georgetown, Texas

We had a little get together for a colleague who was leaving. They have a little private back room that they reserved for us. That room holds maybe 10 people. Once more people arrived we just starting moving into the bar area. They took great care of us and everyone had a great time. Beer prices are awesome and they have nice wine specials. The atmosphere is great! read more

I don't even like wine that much and I loved this place! It's cozy and relaxing. I went with a friend and we had wonderful time. They have a large wine selection and a smaller but soo tasty food selection. Even I was able to find a wine I enjoyed with some help from the server and they have gluten free food options too. Highly recommended for a date night or even an intimate dinner with friends. Thanks too to our wonderful server and the owner who stopped by our table too. read more

If you know a lot about wine, you will enjoy this place I'm sure. A group of 5 of us tried this place for a girls afternoon and it was okay. The waiter wasn't very friendly or helpful and we were pretty much the only ones there. I would go back again though, just because I'm a huge supporter of locally owned places and I do know a little about wines. However, they really need to work on helping a "newbie" understand the happy hour choices and make suggestions for wine tastings. Many of the ladies that I took didn't know much about wines or tastings and they literally had to "pry out" information from him. A simple "is this your first time" followed by some direction and suggestions would have been helpful. We bought 4 different pricey appetizers and each had the 3 glass tastings, so it's not like we weren't spending money during happy hour. I was expecting to take my friends to a place they would enjoy that was local for a pleasant experience and felt like it didn't meet that expectation for any of them. read more

Cute wine bar in downtown Round Rock. Good selection of wines and decent menu. They have cheese plates, flat breads, and some entrees that change regularly. It's in a cute old house and with a patio. Highly recommend! read more

We decided to try this place about a month ago for date night. We could not of been more disappointed. We walked inside and immediately felt like we were inside of a dark, lounge bar. We sat at the bar and wasn't greeted by the bartender for several minutes. Just as we were deciding to walk out, she greeted us and handed us two menus. We asked what the wine specials were and she said "uh,let me check". She opens the wine cooler and literally said, "a white and a cab". Whattt???This is a wine bar, tell me a little bit about the wine, tell me at least the name of the bottle. When my husband asked her if She could tell him a little bit more about the wine, She literally said "I don't know. the white is from Napa and the red is from Italy". I mean, at least try to sell us on some wine. At that point we just decided to leave. The wine seems overpriced and obviously nobody cared too much about selling us wine so we went somewhere else. read more

Awesome quaint relaxing wine bar. The food was great especially the meatloaf sliders. Service was perfect. Both owners came by to talk to us and asked about our experience. read more

I wish I would've had a similar experience as the other reviews for this establishment. After a nice dinner my wife and I decided to check out the local wine bar in our neighborhood. It was our date night which is a sacred event since we have a 3 year old and don't get these as often as we used to. We walked in a little before 9PM on a Saturday night which is over an hour before they closed. It had been raining the day before and we asked if we could sit out on the patio. The bartender couldn't have been more apathetic about us being there. She said they would have to move chairs and dry off tables and did we really want to go out on the patio. A simple statement like, 'the patio is closed' would've been sufficient, but that's not what she did. My wife and I were confused as to why she was so put out by our request. She then looks at us says "well what do you want to do?" I told her inside was fine and we started to leave, but decided to have one drink. I haven't felt more out of place in a long time. We were clearly an inconvenience for her and we will never go back. Enter at your own risk. read more

I run a meet up for married couples and held an event here. When I arrived they had our table for 16 set up, the music was soft and enjoyable. Barbara and the waitress were both very friendly and attentive. The setting was perfect and the wine was amazing! Thanks Barbara! read more
