Ponte Vedra Wine Bar & Restaurant

We thoroughly enjoyed the Jospeh Phelps wine dinner last night where they paired the wine with delicious food. Chef Niko absolutely knocked it out of the park with food! From the first course consisting of house made crostini with whipped goat cheese topping, honey, pistachios and roasted grapes. The entrees were equally fantastic! The first one was the stuffed pork tenderloin with a ginger orange puree. The second one was braised short rib on top of polenta and roasted carrots while the final entree were lamb lollipops with a balsamic reduction and risotto. Desert was a mango champagne sabayon, vanilla bean wafer and spiced strawberry gelee. I 1000% recommend this restaurant!

Quaint place. We met the owner and saw her family. Brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. Bottomless Mimosas and Bloody Mary on Weekends. Happy hour Monday through Friday 4 to 6 pm.

A really cute place, they definitely spent time on the decor and it shows. Very instagramable and adorable. I just wish the food was better. It was a very limited brunch menu on a Friday at noon, and it took 40 minutes for avocado toast and shrimp and grits. (Usually if it's limited that means it's prepped and ready to go, and it's usually their signature dishes that taste great.) Luckily we were not in a rush. The shrimp and the sauce they were smothered in was delicious, but the grits were cold and congealing. That really kills the dish. The Avocado toast did not look like anything too special, and it tasted about the same. Something that could have been made at home. We were sort of expecting some flair with all of the adorable decorations and things around. Drinks were absolutely terrific. We would go back for the drinks in a heartbeat. They did a great job with the decorations and bathroom and walls. I just wish they had an actual menu on a Friday afternoon instead of limited options that weren't prepared quickly or well. Hopefully they are still working out some kinks. The bartender was quick with the drinks and the waiter was very nice.

Had an amazing brunch this past Saturday at PVWB! Our server, Nikki, was incredible and was able to juggle our needy/thristy party of 9 first thing in the morning! 😅 The shrimp & grits were fantastic, sauce on the grits was so good and the lemon arugula flatbread was also awesome! All the portions were bigger than I’d expected and Nikki kept the bottomless pours coming! The decor speaks for itself. Will be back for sure! 🥂😍
