Savvy Cellar Wine Bar — Restaurant in Mountain View

From wine to food to pairing recommendations, everything was a one of a kind experience. I love a good glass of champagne — light and bubbly is perfect in any setting. Antonio made the recommendation of pairing it with truffle popcorn and now that’s the only thing I’ll be pairing my glass of bubbly with. Thank you! . Next I had tried the Versos (Italian) wine made by women wine makers with minimal intervention. It is made using the Mencia grapes and is light bodied with notes of cranberries. The wine pairs well with a light meal. Relative to a Pinot, but better! . The wine Mur Verde is a Spanish wine; organic and more fuller/ structured relative to a Merlot. When you think organic, you assume there’s more bitterness to the wine and off flavors, but not this. By far some of the best organic wine I’ve had! It paired nicely with the vegetables and veggie cutlets along with the goat cheese & sundried tomato crostinis. . The Westgate is a French wine from the south of France. This was more relative to a Cab and very filling. Strong notes of berries, and paired well with the margarita flatbread I had. . Their cheese platters looked amazing as well, however my appetite was filled from the wine and bites that I couldn’t fathom anything else. 10/10 I recommend a visit for the service, delicious wine and pairings, and just to get away...

Very cool location and decor with a surprisingly cool selection of wine that rotates almost monthly.

I'm giving them a 2 because of the odd service my brother and I received.

They weren't busy with a few people inside and 2 larger parties outside. First employee came to talk to us and I felt she was wanting us to buy something, but was at least willing to chat a bit and gave us some time to look around.

Second employee was EXTREMELY pushy and because of the placement of their bottles and tables, made me feel like he was pushing my brother and I into the corner. The employee started talking and made us feel very unwelcome with a definite tone of "buy something or get out" behind his words. Eventually, another party asked him for help, but I was very close to telling him "Listen, you're coming across as hostile, aggressive, and unwelcoming, and if you keep doing this, I'm going to want to speak to your manager and you're definitely losing our sale."

He also gave that same tone and attitude to the party of two he was "helping" with a combative tone to their questions.

Found a wine I had never seen before, we made our purchase and left. However, if that salesman is the only person who can help on my next visit, I'll just walk out. He should get some training on customer service, approach, and...

Better places then this with current ownership.

Great outdoor seating with large wine selection. Limited beer in bottles and recently added a couple of Sakes.

Update 2020: Still great people watching place to be. Staff/owners are the best.

UPdATe 2021: OMG, one of the owners was so rude that I ended up just walking out and will NEVER go there again while the current owners have this place which if they continue to do this will be really soon before someone else takes over. They repeatedly told us to use the QR code and walked away without taking our order 9r explaining that we needed to use the QR code. I have owned several businesses and have NEVER seen some one so rude to customers. I am guessing that they are "hobby/first time" business owners and will learn from this. I know this experience I will be passed on to all my...
