The Best
Unique wines and innovative cuisine in an expansive, energetic space
Sixty Vines
🌟 — Notable in the Woodlands area.
🥇 Best Wine Bar🥈 Recommended American (New)
🥈 Recommended Brunch
🥈 Recommended Pizza
This Dallas import expands the concept of a wine bar to include ample seating (including festive community tables) and an experience that’s more vineyard than bar. Sixty varieties of wine on tap, complimented by a clever menu that’s full of surprising dishes. We were delighted by a fork-tender, incredibly flavorful pork chop, and the innovative pizzas are top notch. Boisterous, energetic setting.

Modern Italian in a sleek urban setting
Porta’vino
🥈 Recommended Italian🥈 Recommended Pizza
🥈 Recommended Wine Bar
The Grogan’s Mill / Town Center area gets an outpost of the hugely popular Washington Avenue Italian hotspot… Porta’vino.
Combining moderately-priced pastas, entrees, and appetizers with BYOB wines (and a reasonable corkage fee), Porta’vino brings a new, modern Italian offering to hungry Woodlands foodies who love wine but don’t want to pay restaurant prices for it. Tucked away at the entrance to the tony East Shore neighborhood, Porta’vino offers a full Italian menu, from sharable and pizzas to salads, pastas, entrees, and desserts.
