My wife and I recently visited Wenatchee and found that Tastebuds was the only place not offering an hour wait to be seated. Â We had a great experience at Tastebuds. Â I had the french dip with gouda; it was tasty and paired well with the red suggested by the server. Â
The server was very helpful and had a good breadth of wine knowledge. Â
The atmosphere is very relaxing and laid back. Â I like the converted garage/patio cafe.
The combo pizza is amazing,everytime we take someone in for it , they moan as they take their first bite! Yummy house soup : cream of artichoke, delicious salads, and melt in your mouth desserts. Wonderful wine selection, and great atmosphere. This is a favorite meeting place amongst the locals. Consistently good.
Review Source:I have been here twice now and this is my favorite little wine bar. I am from the "westside" and I think this is the best one I have been too. The wine selection is fantastic and they are reasonably priced. The vibe and atmosphere is great. This weekend I was out on their patio for a bridal shower and it was just the cutest thing. I kind of felt bad for the other guests in the other part of the place because I am sure we were being quite loud.
The little pizzas were really good too. I had the one with chicken and veggies and pesto. MMM MMMM good.
Definitely a great place to meet up and have a coffee or wine.
Admittedly, the food is great. Â I would recommend the pizza and anything on the lunch menu. Â The desserts are also wonderful. Â And I'm not a big wine fan. Â I only give it three stars because they no longer offer wi-fi AND there is a staff member that never seems to smile. Â I do love the atmosphere and go there often with friends, just no longer for coffee in the morning because of the lack of wi-fi.
Review Source:This is the go-to place for my friends and I when we want to unwind and have good conversation without going to a bar. The wine selection is very good. Admittedly, a few of the bottles are slightly overpriced compared to most retail establishments, but the atmosphere, friendly service and tasty food is worth the few extra bucks to help support a local business. The coffee is MUCH better here than most places in town and the regular changing quiches are always a tasty surprise. They also have live music on Saturdays (6:30-7:30pm and 8:30-9:30pm) and can be VERY busy during these hours, but if you are expecting to be dining with a larger group, they take reservations to ensure you wont be waiting around for a table. A great place to just hang out and have a casual drink and tasty meal.
Review Source:Well, I still have not actually eaten or drank here, But he other night a friend and I went in It was about 8:40, so I assume they were closing soon, when we asked if they were open still, dude said they were closing soon and to come back another night, REALLY!!!!! WHAT!!!!! I could not believe it, not exactly the way to get people to come back, I was very disapointed, he should have said yes we are closing soon, but let me get you a glass of wine and try to get us to come back another time! I might add, I never get to go out so when I do and that happens it really turns me off.....
Review Source:I really want to like this place, and I think they are doing great things for Wenatchee. Â Their service has been decent during past visits, but certainly not warm.
They have a good selection of hyper-local winse, but we were feeling like something different, and came upon a bottle we'd had before from Spain. Los Rocas Grenache. Â It was not priced on the shelf, but I knew it typically retailed in the $10-$13 range and since everything else on the shelves looked like normal retail prices, I didn't expect otherwise.
Checking out, I get ringed up for $28. Â Maybe an innocent mistake, and maybe I should have said something, but this was the gouging of (expectedly uninformed) wine consumer of the highest degree.
I won't be returning soon to buy wine.
I've eaten here twice in the past week, while in town visiting relatives. Oh my goodness, Wenatchee totally needed a classy place like this. What a great place to stop in for a quiet glass of wine and a few nibbles.
The indoor decor is elegant and intimate, with dark woods and spacious tables, and not-too-kitschy light-up glass grapes. There's an outdoor seating area - I love that! Wenatchee needs more outdoor fine dining establishments.
The wine selection is well chosen and it was easy to find an affordable glass on the night we just wanted to chill, and yet we also could find a pricier wine for a Saturday night splurge.
The waitresses have been extremely friendly and helpful - but also back off and let you finish your conversation with your tablemates. The food comes out a little slowly, but this restaurant is designed for you to linger and enjoy, not rush through a meal.
The only reason I am not giving this place five stars is the limited menu. I'd like to see just a few more options in the food department. Still, we've enjoyed the fondue (with generous portions of fruit and crackers; the cheese pizza was delicious and not too greasy; the breadbasket had very moist tender fresh bread; my salad was incredibly delicious; and our dining companion seemed to enjoy his turkey sandwich.
I was confused about what the cheese torta was (It's not a tart!) but amazed at the large portion you get for the small amount you pay for it.
I wouldn't bring kids here, but this place would be wonderful for a girls night out, a date, or a cozy family night with adult family members.
One of the things I enjoy most is they don't have live music, which would make this small place seem crowded, and the noise level would make conversation impossible. That's why I don't like going to McGlinn's when they have live music. Also, the music that's playing in the background is quiet enough you can hold a conversation over it. Please keep up the good work in this regard!
Definitely I'll be eating here every time I come to Wenatchee!
