  Absolutely LOVE Grapes Wine Bar! You can sit quietly with a glass of wine and read your Kindle while the live music plays Friday and Saturday nights, stop in for Dessert with friends, have a wine tasting with the amazing home made hummus, olive or cheese plate. They have it all and are so genuinely gracious, not to mention its close to home so no need to fight traffic or look for parking. I absolutely recommend the following wine (love Merlot!) if you are going to have any of their dark chocolate cake/desserts: Villa San Juliette, Paso Robles, CA They recommended it and wow did the fruit in the wine PoP! Great choice!

  What a refreshing change in Matthews. Great atmosphere, great wine selection, casual, and comfortable.
  
  The owner took quite a bit of time to suggest wines, share upcoming events and to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. I will be back!!

  I am really surprised more people haven't reviewed this place yet!  The location isn't optimal but Matthews definitely needed a couple cool new spots and Grapes was just added to my list of favorites.  
  
  The space is small but that made it feel more intimate.  It wasn't an overly "warm" atmosphere...dark wooden tables, no mood lighting, no candles, etc.  There is room for improvement in that aspect.  However, they do have a couple couches so that made things a bit more cozy.
  
  This is primarily a tapas restaurant or a place you would go for a lite bite before your main meal but if you know that going in then you will be happy.  The food was very good, fresh and decent portions.  We tried the hummus, a flatbread and the chicken salad appetizer.   Very good overall!
  
  The wine list of course was extensive and the service was excellent...ask for Larissa :)
  They also have live music on Friday's and the band this weekend was awesome! They played familiar tunes and I was very impressed with their rendition of some of the classics.
  
  As always, I love supporting local shops so I will definitely be back.  This place is great for a low key date night, girls night out or for small groups!  Check them out!

  Grapes Wine Bar in Matthews has become our comfy spot to try new wines and meet new friends.  The owners, Fabien and Lana, are so warm and welcoming.  The atmosphere is relaxed with soft sophistication.  I am comfortable going by myself if I want to do a little work from my laptop. Love love it!
