13.5% WIne Bar Reviews

Visited this place a few weeks back for the first time and had a good time. i liked how they gave you options on the amount of wine you can order (i.e $3 for 3oz, $6 for 6oz). The prices vary depending on the wine you select. The food was good a fairly priced as well. The night that i went, they provided hookah after 10:30PM. This is a nice outing with good vibes

We had a good time on Saturday. Good wine list and plenty of other options to keep you happy. If I had a complaint, it would be the loud music. It was tough having a conversation.

**DO NOT GET THE PAELLA** We actually went to Hampden to go to the Food Market but it was too busy and had a 45 minute wait, but when we walked by 13.5% Wine Bar we were drawn in by the live music. We liked the open front and the cool vibe inside so we were excited to find a place that seemed so hip. Unfortunately things went down hill from there. There were people dancing, which is cool but one guy kept dancing right at and around our table which was a little off-putting. The service was slow and our waitress had a hard time hearing us because it was so loud inside. We had to clarify our order several times to make sure she understood us. We ordered the pickle flight, roasted Brussel sprouts and three entrees (two paella plates and the fried cheese balls. It took forever! We were waiting and waiting, wondering where the appetizers were until finally they brought them out WITH OUR ENTREES. Yeah, they brought all the food out together, instead of serving the pickle flight and Brussel sprouts first. Now for the paella: DO NOT GET THE PAELLA. They did not use long grain saffron rice! They used some kind of sticky rice with seasoning on it. The chicken was over-cooked and dry, the chorizo sausage was way-over-cooked, the shrimp was over-cooked, the calamari was ok. (P.S.:I burned my hand on the hot-plate because there was no insulating cover on the handle.) We think this place has a lot of potential but we were ultimately very disappointed.

Beautiful place, friendly staff and owner, GREAT Wines and knowledgeable about them. I loved this spot!!

Food here is where you should order a few dishes and share with a friend or partner. However, some dishes are larger than others so you could order two and one of them might be large enough as one only. Wine flights are offered here.

I am surprised by the people posting about the cost; we were shocked at how LOW our check was at the end of a wonderful 5 course meal! This also included a bottle of wine from the wall. Personally I think it is a great value for the price, there aren't too many places where you can get such well done plates and pairings for that cost. I think for what they do there it is perfectly priced. I say go during a slow time because they do get really busy but maybe that's just me, I'm impatient. A new favorite of mine for sure.

Wings were good and the Stormy Daniels drink was good. Friendly staff didn't rush us out and joked around with us also. Def a place to return to soon.

It's a nice aesthetic, good drinks, good and atmosphere

I had my birthday here and it was amazing! The owner accommodated us very nicely we had a wine tasting and on top of that food was delicious. I had the steak and crab mac and cheese, I should have gotten some to go. I will definitely be going back

Great food (especially the Brussels sprouts and calamari), great service, and great live music on a Friday night. Highly recommended for a romantic date or a small group outing. I'd absolutely come back.
