The Local Wine Bar and Sipping Lounge opens at The District | Eater Vegas

"Promising the “ultimate wine experience,” I visited a compact, 1,000-square-foot wine bar that debuted at The District at Green Valley Ranch and provides a relaxing respite for shoppers for lunch and dinner. Created by co-owners Chris Connors and Li Hsun Sun of Me Gusta Tacos, the spot sits between Bath & Body Works and Chico’s and features a rising front window that opens to Village Walk Drive so diners can sit at tables or around the bar. I enjoyed the weekday happy hour from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and a drink lineup of sparkling wines, crafted cocktails, a collection of red and white wines, and mimosa drink flights. The small-bites menu includes panini served with kettle chips, salads, bruschetta and brushcetta plates featuring smashed avocado or fig jam, apples, and brie, and a house specialty of charcuterie boards — including the namesake “Local” created with three meats, cheeses, vegetables, and dipping sauces. It was created to fill a void in the Las Vegas/Henderson market for a simple wine bar with delicious food, great energy, and a homey atmosphere; it’s open daily from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. (11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sundays)." - Bradley Martin
