"This handsome, wine-forward bistro will open at 11 a.m., on Mardi Gras Day. An all-day brunch along with dinner service from chef Amy Mehrtens continues until 9 p.m. Copper VIne’s brunch is substantial, offering short rib ragu with pappardelle and filet mignon with frites besides the usual egg dishes." - Beth D’Addono
"A massive selection of tapped wine and a changing menu of sprightly American cuisine distinguishes this Poydras Street bistro from its downtown counterparts. Copper Vine’s crawfish beignets, which are their own specialty, really, are served on a bed of pickled chow-chow with a Meyer lemon aioli. The crunchy, savory delights are served at brunch and dinner. But that’s not all — Copper Vine also has sweet beignets on the dessert menu, an especially flaky rendition. Best paired with an espresso martini." - Beth D’Addono
"This gorgeous wine bar is key to the ‘Dome drinking and dining scene. With 30 wines and eight craft beers on tap, the options are many at Copper Vine, including everything from half-glass pours to a bottle, in case you want to create your own flights. For food, elevated bar snacks are the perfect place to start, but this spot is so close to the arena that you’ll have time to dig into its contemporary American brunch or dinner menu." - Beth D’Addono
"Chef Amy Mehrtens’ star is surely on the rise. The chef at Copper Vine, a CIA grad with an innate sense of what tastes good, dishes shareables like black truffle fries, crawfish beignets, and seared duck breast with pickled blueberries. She’s on a growth track, with the restaurant’s soon-to-be unveiled expansion to become Copper Vine Wine Pub & Inn, with 11 guest rooms in the newly built structure adjacent to the restaurant — Mehrtens is ready." - Beth D’Addono
"As always, Copper Vine chef Amy Mehrtens offers a tasty modern take on New Orleans feasting. Her menu is five courses for $60, with brilliant wine pairings for $50. Choices range from crispy pork belly rillettes, an apple and Gouda salad, broiled scallops, filet mignon, and pumpkin creme brulee." - Beth D’Addono
