I was excited to check out The Local Vine after reading about the wine bar through multiple print and web articles -and, was disappointed. The environment and atmosphere is warm and inviting but missing details that would provide more comfortabiltiy to enjoy your visit there longer; ie: chairs. Our wait person was not knowledge about the menu and could not recommend a wine for me. Our red wine was served extremely warm, and they didn't seem to care when we mentioned it. For $30+ a glass of wine you would expect the wine to be served at the right temperature. We ordered the dessert and sent it back -it was horrible and the marionberry (or blackberry) dessert actually had gone bad -it tasted and smelled like mold. The cookies were burnt and hard as a brick. I like the environment -but, they need to iron out some things out. The wine menu was ok -would like to see more diversity.
