• Wine Bar • Englewood
Booked 1 time today
Rumours Wine Bar was brought to life from a vision that began back in 2019 in our living room. Dana had recently resigned from her Wine Sales position and wasn’t sure what she wanted to do next. She had always dreamed of opening her own Wine bar so we created our logo, our name, and our brand and simply followed our heart. We opened as a retail store in January 2020 and pivoted when the Pandemic started by creating an online store and offering curbside pick-up and delivery. In September 2020, we passed our final inspections and received our beer and wine license for “on-premise” consumption as well as a restaurant license. We have not slowed down since. We have won numerous awards from our local community including 2022 and 2023 "Best Local Cheers Bar." Our mission at Rumours Wine Bar is to simply embrace intellectual stimulation linked to wine in a relaxed and friendly environment.

    We absolutely love this place. The chef is very talented and skilled. Their soup, we've had several different soups there and they are always outstanding. Tonight I had the seafood stew and everything was cooked to perfection. My wife also enjoyed her veal raviolis. Definitely one of the best Italian restaurants in Venice

    Wine & pasta dishes were a big hit. Waitress spilled entire glass of white wine accidentally onto our table & all over me. While she moved us to another table & offered to get me paper towels, she never expressed any remorse. A simple “oops, I’m sorry! Or… whoa, sorry, didn’t mean to do that!” would have gone a long way. Wedding soup had lot of carrots & celery, like a vegetable soup, but no spinach. Only 4 small meatballs. Grilled octopus was excellent.

    Hidden gem! My husband had the lobster ravioli which were full of tender lobster and shrimp. Chicken fettuccine was delicious too. The care of our waiter JP and all the staff is something everyone feels when you dine here! Why go far when this place is right in Venice! So cute and cozy inside you feel like you might be in Greece!
