My true home away from home... these guys are the best. :) The service and atmosphere can't be beat!
Rich and Vince; The Brothers Tomosallio are the "meat" that holds this fantastic wine bar together. The service you recieve from them is always amazing. The wine is GREAT! They have around 2 tasting every week with a wide range of vineyards --local and international. Champagne tastings! Unique reserve wines! And lots of snacks to make this destination a one stop shop. You can even join their wine club, get a wine locker and have them populate it each month with their pick of great vino. You can get 1 white, 1 red; or 2 red; or 2 white; or... you can get 1 top quality red or 1 top quality white. Very cool concept. They even let you decide what the engraving on your locker says. Great place. A real first for San Diego in regards to concept, product and service.
A great location with friendly memorable staff. The wine tastings and events are informative and fun. Just a wonderful place for wine!
Great location, Great people, Great WINE! There is always something new to try that you won't find at most places. Plus, their wine tasting events often include the winemakers themselves stopping by to lead the tasting...hello! That is incredible. I love TWE!
Wonderful place to enjoy fabulous wine, and great conversation with friends. Rich always welcomes us with open arms, suggests wines I will love, and makes me feel at home.
Para todas las edades!! Sus vinos son esquisitos y todas las semanas tienen pruebas de diferente vinedos. Se los recomiendo!!
It's like a second home...my own "Cheers" where everyone knows your name. Abundant wine selection, for every pallet.
The wine encounter is today's cheers, except with awesome wines and great service. A real local spot with a quality wines, tastings and events. There has never been another place like it!
Honestly, the BEST wine bar in San Diego. Amazing wine in all price ranges. Owners know wine and how to find the good ones vs. the bad ones. If you have never gone, you must go. Tell them what flavors you like in wine, and they will tell you the best choices for the night.
I love this place, what a wonderful place to meet new people and friends. Great wine, great times, and great people.
I love TWE! It is the best bar to meet great people, great wine and at times a great hangover....
A home away from home where friends meet, experience some wine and laugh the night away.
I love the atmosphere and the many different wines offered. I especially love the wine tastings to ensure I get the best tasting wine possible. The employees are fun and enthusiastic. They know their wines and are extremely helpful with deciding the best wine for any event. Thank you Tango!!!
Great place even for those of us that don't know what year is the best from every vineyard in the world! Always helpful staff and great atmosphere!
Very nice place. Quite a selection of various wines. Though you will pay more for the same bottle here then at other wine bars.
You are always treated like part of the family. This is a great place with great atmosphere and great wine selection.
