About this restaurant

  • Great for fine wines
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
It all began in 2011, our guests have been enjoying our made from scratch Mediterranean inspired dishes while relaxing in our rustic and elegant wine country atmosphere.

Take a tour of wines from around the world as you browse through our large selection of available wine. Pair your favorite vineyard varietal with any of your favorites from our small plates, toasted flatbreads, salads or entrée menus.

The Wine Bistro offers an exciting array of well-curated wines and a list of select craft beers. The menu features light, filling appetizers & small plates, soups, salads, flatbreads and entrees offered every day of the week for lunch and dinner. We open at 11:00 AM Mon-Sat and at Noon on Sunday.

Gather a group at one of the communal tables or in the private tasting room. Shop for wine priced at near state minimum or pay a small corkage fee (waived on Mondays & Tuesdays) to enjoy your bottle in-house.
We look forward to exploring great wine and food with you soon!

    This is one of my favorite restaurants over the years. However, the food was subpar last night, but the service was fantastic. Hopefully, next time I visit the food was as good as I remember from previous visits

    Restaurant was having a wine tasting. The noise made it almost impossible to have a conversation.

    We had a great experience at the Wine Bistro. There were four in our group and they put us at a round table a bit out of the way of the other tables, which really helped with the noise level. Our server was so pleasant and helpful. Our group shared crab cakes, the antipasto platter, a delicious meatball, and each enjoyed a winery salad. All the food was delicious, well prepared, and came in a timely manner. We’ve eaten here several times and are always impressed. It’s one of our favorite Columbus restaurants to go with friends or for a date night.

    Outstanding service and great food! They also offered wine to buy by the bottle to take home. The restaurant is charming and comfortable. I appreciate that it was quiet and relaxing. The chicken with spaghetti and pesto was delicious!

    This is a very relaxed and wonderful restaurant. They have a large patio for a great outdoor experience in beautiful Upper Arlington. The food is tasty and prepared perfectly.

    Food was ok but not great. Hummus appetizer was actually great. Bacon on salmon BLT was burnt. Service is just uneven. Friendly but slower than one expects. They said they ran out of water glasses and would bring some when they could. They arrived late in the entrees. They don’t bring you a cocktail and beer list unless you specifically ask for one - I guess they want you to focus on the wine but that seemed odd. The room is a cool place to sit.
