We were there for our first time on Monday August 14th. What a great night my husband and I had. Our server,Chis, was wonderful!!! His suggestions were right on every time. It is a night out that I will always remember. The meatballs were the best I have every had and I would love to get the recipe. I ordered another round after having the first one. Just so good
Pros:
Love the whole experience of the night. Again the meatballs are so good.Cons:
There was no cons in our experience. Just great.Reviewed by allec999 Review Date: 08/19/2022

Amazing wine experience here. Server was wonderful, as was the sommelier, who quickly whisked away and replaced one sample which had turned just a bit. Food selection was limited, bit what they had was quite good. But the star of the show here is the wine selection, which was quite impressive. Can't wait to go back.
Pros:
Amazing wine, and pretty good food; great serviceCons:

The food is very good and easy to share. They’re small plates so maybe order your top 3 picks and share. If you go you have to get the mac and cheese bites
Pros:
Good food and relaxing environmentCons:
can become priceyReviewed by TeacherManJoe Review Date: 05/29/2022

Wine Bar George is just an all-around delight!!
Firstly, the wine experience. As someone who is not as huge a fan of wine as some people, including my wife, I have a lot of fun at Wine Bar George. The reason? The servers, who are all sommeliers, which really puts this spot over the top. Both my wife and I were able to describe the kind of wines we typically like best and we were delighted by the way our server responded with “I’ll find you something fabulous”. My description was MUCH simpler than my wife’s haha, as I’m pretty sure that I literally said, “I like white wine that isn’t heavy”, and what did he bring? Something that was indeed fabulous! HIGHLY recommended pro-tip: On a second visit we asked our server to bring us each an ounce of one of his favorite wines. He did, and when I asked him to describe why this was one of his favorites, he gave a lovely description that really helped us enjoy it even more. These servers LOVE wine, and so this was a great way to get something that they really love and share in the passion they bring to the craft. Plus, asking for just one ounce kept it from being a ridiculous price.
Which brings me to one of our other favorite things about Wine Bar George. I’m going to a place like this, we expected that if we were to have them choose something for us, they would automatically choose something super expensive, so we were a bit leery at first. But we have been delighted each time that not only do they typically ask about the price range you are looking for, but even when you give them the range, they don’t automatically choose the most expensive wine in that range. They pick the one that THEY think is best for you, not most expensive. That really enhances the experience for us, because it allows us to trust our servers and that they are not just trying to upcharge us.
All of this wine talk is what puts this over the top to being a 10 for me.
However, the food here is great as well! The menu is largely best approached (in our opinions) as a small-plate sharing experience, and there are some great eats when you do that! We love the Mac and Cheese bites as well as the Saganaki on Fire, which is a lot of fun as well as QUITE delicious! Perfect accompaniments to great wine!
Finally, the atmosphere at WBG is laid back, relaxing, and just delightful. We love to sit outside, especially on the 2nd floor patio, and relax while taking in the sights and sounds of Disney Springs.
Overall, we love Wine Bar George! It is a great date spot, double date spot, or just spot to sit and relax and enjoy some time with family. Could not recommend more highly!
Pros:
The servers are professionals, and delightfully helpful with what could be an overwhelming wine menu Great small plates Great atmosphere!Cons:

YES, YES, YES!!!
Pros:
It was so delicious! We had the Frozcato and I am pretty sure it is the best frozen drink I've ever had. We also picked this up from the walk up window on a following trip. Loved the mixture of wine, vodka, and dole whip. For lunch, I had the Steak and Frites. I ordered it medium rare and it was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The aioli was the cherry on top for the steak and fries. I would highly recommend. I wish they served this for dinner too. I can't wait to try more menu items.Cons:

We had such a great experience here. Our server was friendly and gave great recommendations for wines to pair with our tastes and what we were eating. We each got a few glasses of wine that were so delicious. We got the big charcuterie board, Mac and cheese bites, and meatballs, and every bite was amazing. Everything is expensive, of course, but I'm much more willing to pay more for well-curated wine and cheese than I am for almost any other meal in Disney Springs.
Pros:
Wine list with great recommendations, amazing foodCons:
Small portions, pricyReviewed by scarrtoonspin Review Date: 01/03/2022

This is def one of my favorite restaurants on property. Food is really fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is so chill and I really like the casual, modern atmosphere. Last trip, we sat on the balcony and it was really nice to watch everything going on outside. The wine list can be a little intimidating, but I've found the staff to be helpful with picking something based on your preference and explaining different varietals that aren't as well known.
Pros:
I like that you can book either through MDE or through OpenTable. It's nice to have the option. Food is delicious and wine options are extensive and uniqueCons:

We came for our honeymoon in September of 2019. A little back story for you. We got married Saturday night (probably finished clean up and got to bed around midnight) and hopped a plane our of Indianapolis at 6 AM. So we slept all of 3 hours maybe. Dropped our stuff at French Quarter and caught a Minnie Van to Disney Springs for our reservation. The waiter was super patient with our lack of sleep and even brought us complimentary Champaign to celebrate! We split a smoked salmon and mac n cheese bites appetizers and a charcuterie board and then had the olive oil cake with candied Kalamata olives. It was all fantastic. I will sing the praises of Wine Bar George until the day I die. If you don't have a reservation go get one right now. If you are over 21 this is literally the perfect place for you.
Pros:
Everything. just go please.Cons:

Flank steak with potatoes & asparagus.
It has to be one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. Steak was medium rare.
Pros:
Steak was tender and good flavor. No need for steak sauce. Asparagus was great. It was cooked well still had a nice crunch.Cons:
The only con was my beer. I’m not a wine drinker. The beer I had was made & stored in wine barrels. The beer tasted like malted vinegar.Reviewed by Jade Review Date: 11/12/2020

If you are a foodie or a fan of wine you definitely need to check out Wine Bar George! My boyfriend and I had an excellent lunch here and can't wait to come back the next time we are at Disney Springs. We didn't have a reservation but they seated us right away on a Saturday. The air conditioning was such a relief from the Florida sun! This new restaurant is beautiful inside and out with sleek modern features and two bars (upstairs and downstairs). They also have an outdoor patio upstairs that is perfect for people watching and relaxing outside when the weather is nice. They have over 100 types of wine available by the bottle, the glass or even the ounce! This is the only restaurant I've ever been to where the namesake was actually present. George himself was behind the bar mingling with customers and talking to his staff! So awesome! Our server Olivia couldn't have been nicer. She walked us through the menu and made sure we had what we needed throughout our meal.
For lunch we started with sangria and their wine margarita, the fried mac and cheese bites, and the spiced olives. The drinks were good but the mac and cheese bites were killer! So good! Order them! The olives were served warm which was a game changer! For entrees I ordered the steak frites and my boyfriend had the BLT + C. The steak was very flavorful and cooked perfectly but I would have liked more sauce/gravy to dip my fries in. My boyfriend also enjoyed his entree. I was celebrating my birthday and the staff were kind enough to bring our desserts with birthday greetings printed on chocolate! If you like olives get the olive oil cake! This was a knockout dining experience. A++
