Super lowkey wine bar in East Dallas - only noticeable from the strip parking lot with the simple word 'WINE' above its space. Attended here for the Monday open mic which was very casual and welcoming. I had a delicious cider (only $6!), but will need to come back to try the very well-priced wines. The open mic had a great variety of acts, including my favorite - the magician. Come check it out! read more

Love this spot! Super amazing selection. The best wine ever. Open mic on Monday nights are a blast. The sweetest performances and quality. Super great spot. Very chill and friendly vibes. read more

Honored to call this place home for our beloved band of merry performance artists on the weekly. Phillip and his staff, RJ, have sought to make us feel welcome, well wine educated and happy. It is ambient and cosy. Wifi available. Solid upstairs for when one wants for some atmosphere. Once a week on Mondays, our community of creatives collaborating individual talents, in a show come here and do their thing. Never the same show twice. Great chance to support local in more ways than one. House Pa provided. Great libations, too. Non-alcoholic options also available. Outside food is welcome. Parking free in the retail lot. read more

----- Read This Review ------ GO! Awesome, intimate, warm and inviting! Excellent wine selection and private wine service is available for the more discrete patrons who want an impressive collection at home. Looking for delicious wines, here they are. (And no grocery store wine!) Dark wood antiqueish long wood tables on the main floor with a small stage for musicians who pop by on rotation. Upstairs area is a more intimate setting. I can't wait to go back. I'm going back! read more

Love this place got the great wine options, cozy atmosphere, and great people. This is a neighborhood gem.

Gretchen was absolutely fantastic and the live music by Courtney Elaina was perfect. Has beer so would return.

If you're looking for a casual neighborhood wine bar, that attracts a diverse clientele, Wine Therapist is worth a visit. The lofted minimalistic design with communal tables and benches conjure an old English pub vibe. Similar to many venues in the area, a design revamp would go a long way, but still, a good time can be had by all. I'm not a wine snob, however I don't believe true connoisseurs of wine or beer, will be impressed with the limited options, or prices. Why visit Wine Therapist? I love supporting local artist, and from Open Mic Mondays to varied musical artist throughout the week, there's always something to enjoy, even a wine tasting area that's great for parties (maybe there are different wine options during a tasting.) Parking is easy, and although they don't serve food they allow orders from nearby venues. Hope to enjoy the arts with you at Wine Therapist soon! Xoxo Lorenzo! read more

Wine Therapist - Enjoying a night of local artist! - Wineries Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I've been coming to The Wine Therapist for several years, to both locations. As others have said, the outside sign says "WINE," so be aware of that The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, very neighborhood vibe. I've never been uncomfortable coming alone, you can have a drink unbothered or strike up a conversation with a friend or some strangers. Philip and Gretchen are knowledgeable and always fun to talk to. Great place!! read more

Gretchen provides great service..excellent choice of wide variety of wines. Great place for special events.

When you first drive by, don't let the red neon sign that only whispers "WINE" fool you, because I can't say enough great things about this place! Their wine list impeccable, and infinitely better than the other wine bars in the area and beyond. For that, you can thank owner Phillip Nikpour's superb knowledge of the grape, and his never ending search for the best in vintage and value. The service is graciously offered by manager/bartendress Gretchen, who always gives a smile with her generous pours. They often have exceptional live music on the weekends. Bottom line, if you like being someone that's in on a best kept secret, you'll love the ambience of The WT. read more

Came here for a friend who was playing some live music on a Friday night and was pleasantly surprised with this place. Lots of different options for drinks, no matter your taste they are sure to have something you will like. Even though I was here for an event I was able to check the place out: there are some great spots where you can hang out with the crowd, or there a couple rooms upstairs where you and separate yourself for a more intimate feeling Just word of warning though, if you don't know what your looking for you may miss it. The sign on the building only says "Wine" so keep an eye out! read more

Wine Therapist moved to a new location about a year ago. And if you blink, you'll miss it. There is no major signage, just a small neon sign that says WINE. I guess that's all you need these days in Lakewood, but you won't hear any complaints from me. Unlike many other wine bars that are similar to sitting in someone's living room or patio. Wine Therapists has a art studio feel to it. The space is two levels. The upstairs offers more privacy and some really comfy chairs. Downstairs has the usual bar space and it also has the community style table & bench seating. You'll also notice plenty of local art on display on the wall, which is fairly cool. If you're like most wine drinkers, you will want something to snack on. Wine Therapist doesn't have food, but you can order from the Italian restaurant next door and they will deliver right to your table. If the weather is nice or your tolerant of being outside in Texas, you can sit at one of the sidewalk tables. Service is very consistent on each visit. And there's a great variety of wines to choose from. You will find plenty of friendly locals. Don't hesitate to make this a regular stop on your way home. read more

Wine Therapist - Wall of art - Wineries Near Me - Dallas, Texas

It's a nice little spot to try out some new wines. They have pretty late hours on weekdays, so you can gather here with friends instead of going to a bar. Good service and selection, and prices are good too. There were about 12 reds and 12 whites by the glass, and they were happy to let you have a taste of something that had an open bottle before you buy. Overall a good little spot. read more

My fiancé and I loved going to this wine bar, but after this past weekend that completely changed. We hadn't been since March 2020 before the pandemic began. We used to go on the WEEKENDS for date night because they had amazing wine flights for a great price. We decided to take some family from out of town to the wine therapist, seeing that we had been bragging about them all week. Not to mention we were excited to finally return ourselves. Upon our arrival, Gretchen greeted us. I told her we were waiting for 3 other people and we were interested in wine flights. Little did I know they were no longer doing flights on the weekends. She proceeds to LIE and says, "We don't do flights on the weekends. I told you that when you called here earlier." For starters, I have never called the establishment, my fiancé is always the one making the calls. Secondly, "we" all don't sound alike. For her to confidently tell me in front of my family that she had already discussed this with me was absolutely racist and disgusting to us. Following the request for the flights, I asked her for a menu. She responds with, "Our wines are limited, we have no menu. Just tell me what you want." My sister in law asked the same question and she responds in the same rude manner. All she could provide to us was that they had two Napa cabs once we asked about Cabernet. We are extreme wine lovers so when we asked for the brand of the wine, Gretchen would only tell us "Napa Cabs". We asked again for the brand and in mid sentence she interrupts us to say , "I'm trying to tell you." as if we needed to shut the hell up and let her talk. To make a long story short we left and wont be returning EVER. Her behavior was down right disrespectful and as far as I'm concerned this is a racist establishment and if I could give it negative 3 stars I would, which sucks because the owner, Philip, is such a sweet guy. As we were walking out of the door, my fiancé asked for her name and she says, "It's Gretchen. Yeah I know you're going to leave a bad review on yelp." Well, here's your review, Gretch. A little word of advice, creating a limited menu would have been helpful. Even if you have to create a limited menu every week as you run out of wine, if it helps the customers, then it's great for business. But you Gretchen, you're bad for business. If you're looking for great wine with terrible service, ask for Gretchen. She'll be more than happy to take care of you. read more

I have visited Wine Therapist on a few different occasions and I'm suitably impressed with the venue to give it a solid recommendation. My first visit to Wine Therapist was on a Sunday afternoon. There was a tasting in progress and I was able to sample several excellent wines. The price for the event was reasonable given the quality of wines and quantity provided. When I asked about a specific varietal, the owner opened a bottle and gave me a glass, gratis. It was a separate vineyard that was not featured in the tasting, so this was really going above and beyond. The rest of the tasting was delightful and I happily made a purchase. On my other visits, I have also enjoyed myself. However, the owner has not been present and the level of service was such that I cannot give Wine Therapist a full five-star rating. I've had spotty luck with recommendations and service from the non-owner staff. It's not bad service, but it hasn't been quite as helpful or educational as I would like. This is especially important for a venue like Wine Therapist where much of the value is in the experience of learning about the wines for sale. I will happily go back, but I wish the staff was a bit more consistent when the owner is not present. read more

Came in to see a friend of a friend preform. It was a cute lil lounge. Great if you just want to have a little showcase and wine. They do offer cheese and meats with your wine. They are very generous with the wine! read more

Lo-Fi wine bar in Lakewood. A nice neighborhood spot with a "Cheers"-like atmosphere. Knowledgeable staff will guide you to a good glass. The owner/operator is clearly an expert. read more

Been here twice for live music and wine. Was not disappointed. However, I was not aware that I was going to pay $20 per person to hear jazz last time I went. The performer was OK, but he was primarily performing for his personal friends who composed the vast majority of the audience. If I were reviewing just the performer, I would give him a good review. As for the venue, in the past, the performers have been top notch, but I don't recall ever having to pay $20 per person when I attended previous events here. With an entrance fee of $40 for myself and a date, plus the price of wine, this was an expensive evening. I could have spent less on Deep Ellum with equal quality performance. read more

Oh my Gretchen how I've missed you and the wine! Marriage has slowed me down quite a bit but I will be sure to come back and see you again very soon! I love the new cozy space The Wine Therapist has relocated to as times have changed. Great wine and the prices are always in line along with the standard WINE THERAPIST pour! Also I love the two separate and intimate upstairs rooms! Perfect for wine love birds to get away from the crowd. read more

Rude Understocked No greeting Did not even ask preferences Asked for a taste Bristled when we asked for a taste as if we were asking for a freebie. Depressing interior Went to Veritas nearby Goodbye wine Therapist forever read more

Been here once before on a Friday when it was crowded and they had good live music and good service. Went tonight early with 10 people in the bar total and the 3 of us were basically ignored after our first glass. Took fifteen minutes while our glasses were empty and the waitress was drinking her own glass behind the bar and chatting with her friends before we were asked for another. We had to get up from our table and go to the bar to get our check. As my friend said it felt like we were at a house party that nobody wanted us to attend. My Syrah was nice though. read more

The Bartender this evening was ver insulting. He accused us of being drunk. I have never been here. I drove my friend and he was extremely rude. I never been treated this way. read more

Really cute place. Workers were very nice and even let us eat our pizza inside as we drank a glass of wine

This is a very cool, laid-back wine bar where you can drink at the bar or purchase and take with. They have live music on the weekends, and Philip and his staff are knowledgeable about wine. read more

Five people in the restaurant yet we had poor and unfriendly service. Prices were elevated as well!

I bought the Groupon for the Wine Tasting, and was very impressed with The Wine Therapist. I tasted Australian wines, which is a wine region I had no knowledge in. I will come back to the nights when they have theme tasting, and musical groups. Parking can be a pain, but the wine is fantastic. read more

Good wine, great atmosphere, friendly staff. I will definitely be coming back here again.

The Wine Therapist has an outstanding selection of wines that are hand picked by Phillip, the owner. We have all of our special events here due to the live music, warm hospitality and fabulous wine! read more

Great wine and atmosphere. Live music too. Very knowledgable staff. Even have a small party/banquet room in the loft. Will def be back

Excellent venue for wine, music and just hanging out! They know their wines and carry them in all price ranges. The staff is phenomenal and really make you feel welcome. One of the many wonderful things about this place is that you can order food from an array of area restaurants and have your order delivered to the Wine Therapist. Great and varied selection of music performances at the Wine Therapist. read more
