Waterfront Wine Bar

Had the pleasure of doing a show her this past Sunday and I must say it was truly a gem! The staff here was so nice and accommodating to us. The wine selection was extensive and very descriptive. I personally had one of my Wisconsin favorites (Three Lakes Black Cab) and it was poured to perfection. They have a full kitchen which I will definitely have to come back to try more from because it smelled heavenly. Overall this is a fantastic space for a wine tasting, pairing, girls night out, etc. Definitely give them a glance and you’ll agree with me I promise you!

We've loved coming here since it opened - unfortunately, the menu is not what it used to be. We always love the pad Thai, but they forgot the peanut sauce at our last visit. The menu has gotten smaller and pricier. The drinks are unique for Manitowoc, but again, on the pricier side. Service is always very friendly and always slow due to lack of staff. Perhaps it's always when we go, but I've heard others have similar experiences for years. The atmosphere is great and it's nice to sit on the deck if the weather is nice. Overall, I'd recommend trying it out if you haven't!

Went to wine bar with my wife. Beautiful building. Was greeted by a wonderful waitress called Bri. Her smile lit up the place, so friendly and explained every dish in great detail. I ordered the scallops and omg mouth watering. Service was fast for how busy it was. I even saw the owner waiting on tables which is very unusual for most places, glad to see her dedication to the business. I'd recommend this place to everyone.

The Waterfront Wine Bar is an amazing place to visit with your loved ones! I had a great time there with my mom today. The restaurant has an inviting atmosphere. And let me tell you, the cheese curds were out of this world! I couldn't get enough of them. The Elevated Alfredo was the real star of my dining experience, truly a dish that you simply can't miss! It's the perfect combination of unique eclectic flavors and perfectly cooked pasta. And the best part? You can enjoy it alfresco! The outdoor seating is the perfect place to enjoy a meal here. Crab cakes were also incredibly delicious they were perfectly seasoned and had the most amazing texture. And don't even get me started on the tiramisu it was like a little slice of heaven on a plate! All in all, I would highly recommend the Waterfront Wine Bar to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience especially for your taste buds.

The po boy was good. Although it seemed a little dry. The amount of food you get is definitely worth the money. The cheesecurds were light and very cheesy. The crayfish dip came out hot. The pad Thai was so good.

Food was absolutely amazing and reasonably priced. Service was friendly, my bartender and my server were both funny, sociable and welcoming. Great place to catch a drink, have lunch with friends, or a romantic date with your S/O.

One of the best places to eat in Manitowoc. The staff has always been really friendly! Food is always 5 stars. I have never ordered anything I did not like! Their drink list in phenomenal as well. The view though, the views are always amazing. I love the outdoor seating in warmer weather. This is one of my go to spots.

We ate here while staying at the Baymont hotel which is easy walking distance from here. We loved the place as it had excellent ambience and good food. I started out with a refreshing Zinfandel and then had a half wine and cheese tray as well the scallops. Both of these were excellent. My wife had the Greek salad which she enjoyed but felt there wasn't enough dressing. Because it was my wife's birthday, we also got a free serving of Gelato which was good. We would eat here again.

This place was awesome, the ambiance was spectacular. I'd make the drive from Green Bay just for date night. Right on the water. The drinks were delicious and so fun! We were there for the cheese curd crawl and in our group of 9 - everyone said they would've licked that RANCH right off the plate. It was SO good!! Never had one like it. Bravo for the best dip!!! May I suggest switching your white cheddar for yellow though, that would've put you over the edge for sure!!

From start to finish, the service was excellent, the food and drinks were absolutely delicious! Will definitely be going back. Early afternoon was nice and quiet.

First timer at the Waterfront Wine Bar this past Saturday was Amazing from the Food, Wine, and Atmosphere. This is a Manitowoc Gem for sure a Must Stop!! Being on the river with outside sitting available would also make this a Great warm weather stop for sure. Thanks to Megean and Rachel for making our day Special.

Stopped by for a quick bite while in Manitowoc. Unfortunately was raining so couldn’t sit outside on their wonderful riverside seating.
Great wine selection. We had the prosciutto crostini and the salmon crostini, both were fantastic. Rest of the menu looked very good, will have to come back and try more items from the menu.

Great drinks. The appetizers we had were good but probably wouldn't order again.

Fun staff
Great menu selections for food wine and cocktails
A must stop

The shrimp tacos are delicious!
My mojito was sweet and tart at the same time. Very good.
Our server was new but she knew what she was doing. Great recommendations.

Approachable fine dining, but also dice games at the bar, which makes this a place for anyone. I had the crab cakes and the scallops. Very impressed by both. Great location along the river with both outdoor and indoor seating. Great service.

We ordered take out! Chicken bacon ranch wrap and two oriental salads for supper! Fresh, delicious, great prices thank you for making our Halloween 🎃 pleasant!

We had a great late afternoon charcuterie and bottle of wine sitting on the water.
The waiter was friendly, the weather was nice and it was just a pleasant place to spend an hour enjoying my afternoon.

LOOOOOOOVE this place. For a city filled with beer, burgers, and pizza, this experience is a long needed addition! If you enjoy a modern dining experience, or prefer wine that cost more then the grocery store minimum, this is the place to be. Not to mention the best whiskey selection in town! Fun, delicious, glassy and vibrant. A must go!!!

Dinner was delicious and the wait staff was very friendly. We went for dinner with work colleagues and had a great time. The atmosphere is so cozy as well. The beer cheese soup was amazing!
