Twelve Grapes combines upscale charm with genuine warmth. It's owned and run by the dynamic duo, Dave and Dave, assisted by great staff like Kirsten and Baird, who make everyone feel welcome and important.

You can come dressed up for a special night out or just drop in after work for a relaxing glass from a wine list chosen with love, intention and a true knowledge and passion for great wine.

Read moreThis is a wine bar with food limited to a bevy of charcuterie board choices. They have a liquor license so you won't have to miss out on a GENUINE Margherita, made from real lime juice (not a mix) and is a very refreshing change from what every other restaurant in our area is doing . Four of us had a couple drinks each, covering the whole spectrum of beer, wine, and liquor. Everything including the service was very good . A cozy, beautifully decorated space is perfect for a pre-dinner rendezvous or a first date. Even the non-gender specific restroom is decorated in a very bold, coloful manner.
