    Again the Wine House was a wonderful dining experience. The server was super friendly and I think she brought us our drinks in about 2 minutes. All four of us were more than pleased with the quality of our entrees. The Wine House has always been one of our favorite restaurants because of its quality and atmosphere.

    My wife and I have been going to The Wine House since it first opened, and it has only gotten better over the years. In addition to fabulous food, excellent service, and a nice, warm environment, the ability of the knowledgeable and friendly staff to pair outstanding wines with one's meal selection takes this place to new heights. For a special event or just for fun, try the Wine House; you will not be disappointed!

    Love The Wine House. Food is excellent and the service was awesome. We had Casey as our waiter and he went above and beyond to make my friends birthday great. His recommendations for the food were great too. Highly recommend this venue, it never disappoints

    The Wine House is one of my favorite restaurants in Fairfax. The food is always delicious, wine selection wonderful, and service superb. Service is never rushed, and usually the noise level is such that one can have a good conversation with others at the table. Sunday nights are especially good for quieter evenings but almost any evening is good. There is a small bar where one can get wine, or both wine and food. The ambiance is pleasant with soft lighting. Parking is easy with an adjacent garage where parking is free. I wholeheartedly recommend The Wine House.

    We went for a Sherry flight event and followed with a meal. The flight was wonderful and the explanation that accompanied each glass was very informative. The meal that followed was just the right amount of food, delicious taste. While sipping my wine, I was able to shop for a few gift bottles. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
