Service and food was wonderful. As the restaurant began to fill, the noise level reached a point that we had to lean over the table to communicate with each other

This has been one of our favorite restaurants. We came for our last meal because they were closing and we are so disappointed, but that’s the way it goes. They’re going to create a different restaurant with different food. Hoping it’ll be a place that we’ll love.

The food was AMAZING as always, the service was out of this world, but….. the noise level was NOT energetic. I left with a headache! There was a large table behind us who did not realize they were not the only patrons in the restaurant. I do wish management would have just asked them to tone it down because we rushed through our meal to just get OUT. We even skipped deserts and asked for our meal to go because of them. It is a shame. We are trying to make it out to house.wine several times before they close as it is one of absolutely favorite restaurants in town!!

I had reserved a table for my girlfriend's birthday, service was beyond fast—especially for the quality of the food—and on top of that the staff went out of their way to sign a birthday card for my girlfriend before we arrived. I would 100% recommend House. Wine. & Bistro and will be coming back again.
