Pursuit Wine Bar serves up an inviting selection of global wines by the glass paired with delicious nibbles in a cozy, date-night setting on H Street NE.
"At this H Street NE fixture, which relocated in 2019, owners Shawn Ross and Adam Kelinsky feature wine flights ($22 to $26) and bottles from all over the world. A food menu boasting homemade pastas and panini. New American tasting room Irregardless also offers a strong Virginia vino list across the street." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb
"Pursuit Wine Bar & Kitchen also permanently closed after service on Sunday, December 17, ending a nearly 10-year run along the H Street corridor." - Tierney Plumb
"In Pursuit of Fine Wine Owned and operated by college pals Thomas Boisvert and Kathleen Davis, this inviting H Street spot pairs an eclectic global list of more than 30 wines by the glass (including a few on tap) with well-chosen nibbles like hearty bruschettas and build-your-own grilled cheese sandwiches. Creative offers like "Heavy Pour Mondays," where one-third of a bottle fills each glass, and their nightly "Standby Flight List," a five-wine sampler for only $15, have made the Pursuit a local favorite."
"The Pursuit is the place to be for popping quality bubbles at affordable prices. A French brut, Italian Prosecco, and Brazilian rosé all can be had for less than $20 a bottle. Pickup orders can be made online." - Travis Mitchell
"Pursuit Wine Bar has been a notable exception, but the strip does lack a traditional Italian-American place." - Tierney Plumb
