Sommelier-run wine bar offering eclectic small-production bottles
"“Garagiste” originated in France as a somewhat derisive term meaning a small-scale winemaker that doesn’t follow tradition, but the creators of Garagiste Wine Bar have reclaimed it for themselves as knowledgeable curators who help others do exactly that. This Arts District wine bar focuses on helping people discover eclectic, small-production wines. As a separate service, the team can help collectors build a personal cellar by providing recommendations at various taste levels and price points. Charcuterie plates are available for dining in, and bottles are half-off if you take them to go." - Jennifer Smith
"The sommelier-owned wine bar is the first of its kind in the Las Vegas Art District. With a menu of 13 pages of wine options, both wine aficionados and those who are just getting into it can find something to love, often with a helpful recommendation from those behind the bar. Grab a seat on the patio and order a charcuterie board if dining in, or get a bottle for half off when you buy it to go." - Janna Karel

"A downtown Las Vegas wine bar that was a finalist in the Outstanding Bar category last year, recognized for its curated wine program and local prominence in the James Beard Awards circuit." - Nicole Adlman
"A downtown wine bar that opened in 2019, Garagiste Wine Room and Merchant is the only bar in Las Vegas to earn a James Beard nomination. Operated by hospitality veteran Eric Prato, a former head sommelier at Bouchon, it functions as both a wine bar and a starting point for building your own wine cellar. The menu offers about 30 wines by the glass and hundreds of whites, reds, and rosés from throughout Europe and beyond, a welcome inclusion in the booming Las Vegas Arts District. The cool gray interior is modern and leans industrial, and there's a sidewalk patio for dining in with a glass of wine and a charcuterie board." - Janna Karel
