Such a cute,small cozy space. Nice ambiance. The waitress was polite and patient. The salmon was moist and tasty. It's downstairs so I'm thinking it may not be wheelchair accessible. Upstairs are residential apartments and I did not see an elevator. There is outdoor spacing for wine drinking but I'm not sure if food is served in that space.Parking: It's located in the Stip district so parking is a bear. Good luck?

They were hosting a fish fry fundraiser for St. Stanislaus Kostka Stained Glass Window. We came for lunch on Friday, and there were plenty of tables available. You order at the bar and they bring the food to your table. I got a fish sandwich with haluski and coleslaw. The service was great, and the food didn't take very long to come. Since it was at a restaurant, I expected it to taste better than regular church fish fry. But it wasn't very notable. It did make me intrigued about the restaurant though. Overall, it wasn't the best fish fry I've had, but I appreciated their heart and service. We actually stayed a while and they didn't rush us out. I would definitely come back to try some of their regular food.

We were sat in the back by the bathroom so private but also kinda weird. The waitress often didn't bring things to the table without reminder, example: got wrong drink, sauces, and the main dish took about an hour to get to the table. The main dishes were bland and not very good. The mocktail list was nice.

Food and wine were good. Coming from someone very picky, the charcuterie board was good and I ate everything on it. Service was okay. It didn't seem like they had many people working in the kitchen so food was a little slow. I recommend going there for a date night.

The place is super cozy and very romantic. The wine is delicious and the food is good. The service is out of this world. We dined there on Valentine's Day they had a prefixed menu. I would like to try the daily menu for a fair review on the food!

The wine tasting experience was excellent. Our server was wonderful and so knowledgeable about the wines. They were able to accommodate us with a gluten allergy with the cheese board. Highly recommended the tasting experience for a special occasion or something fun to do. The wines were delicious!

This restaurant has to be a front for something else, because no self-respecting restaurateur would ever serve the wine or food that this place serves. The "wine list" is absolute amateur hour. All of these 4/5 star reviews must be made by people who have no idea what wine is. They must think of it solely as alcoholic grape juice. The wine list does not even mention where the wine is from, the vintage of the bottle, etc. It's awful. It's like a wine list for small town yokels or something. Next, the food ... frozen, inedible, horrible. Sorry. It sucks. The service was okay. Our server was nice. The ambiance felt like sitting in a wood-paneled living room from someone's house that was last updated in 1982.

Our waitress, Olivia, was fantastic for our group of eight old college friends! She was friendly, allowed us time to gab while we had drinks before ordering, and did not rush us out after we were done eating. The ambience of the Wine Cellar on Penn could not be any better! And the food and wine were delicious!

Our server was excellent! He was friendly and extremely helpful. We had a few dietary restrictions and the attention to detail he provided and care given to ensure our meal was correct and enjoyable was refreshing and appreciated. The kitchen was accommodating and the food was excellent.

Our food was fantastic! However, the service was terrible. The waiter forgot to put over $40 worth of apps and when asked where they were got annoyed with us and said “I forgot to put them in” he didn't care at all. We were never asked if we wanted more drinks, never asked how our food was, never asked if we wanted dessert so we paid and went to Papa J's which had fabulous service and dessert's!

Night out with friends and had an awesome table in a back room but near the bathrooms. Our server Wendy was excellent. Food was just ok. Nothing terribly wrong but nothing really great. Probably better for drinks and appetizers than dinner.

Hidden gem located in the Strip District. The wine is local, affordable, and good. And the food is exceptional.
