We Olive Wine - Costa Mesa

DO NOT give this establishment your business. Today I witnessed two gentlemen be treated horribly by who I believe is the owner. They simply asked if they could order two glasses of wine and take it out on the patio. He said no. When they asked if another establishment would let them, he pointed across the way and said ?they might illegally let you?. When these two customers noticed that the business indeed had an outside patio and enquired if they could sit out there andhave wine, he said ?yes?. One of the men asked him why he did not mention that when he asked a minute earlier, the business owner/employee responded ?I thought you were talking about another patio?. Really? Is this how you treat yourcustomers? When one of the men made a comment under his breath/mask about this businessman?s rudeness, the wine bar owner literally lunged toward him very aggressively. If the counter was not separating them I believe he would have actuallyhit him. Everyone around us watched aghast. I mean we were there for a relaxing Sunday afternoon stroll around SOCO, not front row seats at a boxing match at Madison Square Garden. Stay away!

Great wine selection, amazing place for a glass of wine or even a bottle to share. Great location, fantastic staff. Truly the best.

Some of the best pasta in LA at the right price point. Delicious desserts too. Unfussy and informal. But the no reservations policy can get tough and the online wait list doesn't always work. Consequently there are long waits and rushed staff. This could be improved on. Otherwise just great!

Great staff. They really know their wine. Also order the cheese plate... large combo

This is one of the best places ever to hang out on a Saturday afternoon
