This spot was recommended to me from a server at a really great restaurant called Ima Izakaya down the block, and it didn’t disappoint. We got lucky and came on a Jazz night hosted every third Saturday of the month with The Jesse Kramer Trio, and we had a great time. Great music, ambiance, wine and friendly staff - We’ll definitely come back when I’m in Detroit.

Fantastic natural wine spot in Detroit. Predominantly European wine, but very wide range and the staff are super friendly and knowledgable about their stock. Don’t let the looks from the outside put you off, it looks closed, perhaps even slightly abandoned at first look. Even the door with the open sign looks like it’s closed, but go inside and it’s a great spot. Good bar for drinking in, lots of seats and a huge terrace at the back. Would very much recommend this place if you are a natural wine fan

The guy with the dreds was not friendly and had a bad attitude. We were not greeted by any bartenders. The cheese plate was old and crusty. I was there to celebrate and this place put me in a bad mood. Will not be going bad. Band was excellent. Thats the only good part.

I like to go for Tango dancing on Wed. Nights and I've been there for small music artists events and House music on Sundays. I like that it's small and cozy. I usually eat at home before I go. The charcuterie boards do not entice me at all. I hear there is a food truck, but it's never there during the times of my events. Great selection of wines. They need to invest in upgrading their dance floor. There is a serious slant and now the cheap linoleum floor is ripping up making it very hazardous for dancers.

Motor City Wine is a great spot! Wide selection of by-the-glass, and a varied bottle section. They have tastings and live music. The owners are so friendly and knowledgeable!

Amazing space! My partner picked this place and was excited since he heard great things. I, at the same time, was looking at Resident Advisor and saw that a fun event was taking place here, too. We are so happy we went. Amazing vibes, great crowd, chill- and welcoming giving the music tonight was a fun DJ. — love love.

I would get this place a good review because the wine was good but the staff was not really nice to me. I spent over $100 and they were being weird about me asking for a double bag because I didn’t want my wine to drop in break since I was walking home.

This place is one of my favorite wine bars in the city first and foremost. However, I went in with my partner on 11/9/23. Things seemed great until my interaction with the bartender Anthony. I jokingly told him that my partner was making …

I've been here in the past and the service was excellent, but this time coming through the door it was rudeness. Then letting it go the bartender was rude after the Manger. (Oh and btw) I heard the smart comment "these kids" reffering to …
