Good wine flights and communes well with others!

Heading West on Glendale Blvd, JUST before Glenfeliz on RT --last before hitrting the 5--sharing lot with Starbucks as visual locator....... tasty morsel plates, but very good pizza they order from neighboring pizza place. Few French and California wine selections, which is nice to feature Italian, Argentinean and other worldly wine choices......... AND THE LOBSTA TRUCK VISITS ON OCCASION, which they welcome (as they do all visitng food trucks) great combo with their champagne flight. A definite destination to support Atwater businesses. Thumbs up! Heads up, though, the trek to the "dungeon tasting cellar" is not always well-lit...... wear your "thinking feet!"

Great place for wine

by MeginLA at Citysearch

I wish this shop were located closer to me. They have the most well rounded wine selection I've seen in a long while. They lack the pretentious attitude of a lot of LA places and are incredibly knowledgeable. Simply tell them what kind of wine you prefer and ta da, dozens of recommendations that are always right on the mark. The downstairs tasting room is quaint and cozy, the perfect place to open a bottle to share with friends, eat some food and relax.

• Pros: the selection
• Cons: the location

Well i went with my girlfriend, to try this new place out and it was great. The place is nice and intimate but small. The flights arent expensive and the staff were REAL REAL freindly and imformative. I liked this place, would recommend to anyone.

• Pros: Good Prizes
• Cons: When more people know about it, it will be too small

Great wine bar

by DianaM1 at Citysearch

I thought it was such a nice, cozy lil' wine bar. It is great if you are out on a date. I liked the wines they offered for the wine tasting and not expensive. We were well informed about the wines and thought it was a great experience. It is a bit small, but since a lot of people don't know about it....makes the size just about right. Definitely recommend it!

• Pros: wine, prices, pizza
• Cons: a lil' small

Found some fabulous Italian wine here!

I live in Silver Lake so I'm not too far from 55 Degree wine bar. I stopped in on my way home from work and had a lady give me lots of information about wines, gave me suggestions (since I said I wanted to try something new, good and inexpensive), and told me all about their wine tasting events. I was quite impressed with the service, wines and the beautiful store. The underground cellar where they conduct the wine tastings is a place that I intend to visit in the very near future. Just saw their July offer. If that's not an incentive, I don't know what is!!!

• Pros: Employees expertise with regards to wine
