Washington PostJanuary 22, 2015About as friendly and hassle-free as a wine bar can be, Pursuit has pleasant bartenders who have no problem discussing and recommending the 3 dozen selections, including a quartet that comes on tap. Read more
Rosie HendersonJune 23, 2015Great wine selection. You can create your grilled cheese and wine flights. Monday is Heavy Pour Day, every 3 glasses equals 1 bottle.
MichaelSeptember 23, 2016The meatball marinara grilled cheese is excellent and the shrimp was almost as good. Nice place for sure.
Chris GoldenJune 15, 2014Wines are great but definitely also get a cheese board to compliment. Upstairs is cozy, downstairs is fun and outside is awesome
Christopher WestcottSeptember 20, 2014I love this place! Definitely try the Sinful Gin. Also, making your own grilled cheese is awesome.
Just amazing the meatball grilled cheese is tops 👌🏻👌🏻
RyanOctober 27, 2014Sat upstairs completely alone on a school night. Cheese and meat board is worth it. Oh and wine is great too.
Lee GrigsbyAugust 9, 2014Great atmosphere and superb bartenders and ANY of the grilled cheese combinations are to die for!!! @pursuitwinebar
Hanna B.September 23, 2014Heavy pour Mondays means your glass of wine is 1/3 of a bottle. And the build your own grilled cheese is delicious!
Sarah DAugust 10, 2014Brunch is great, especially the breakfast sandwiches with garlic aioli. A hidden gem.
Salsiccia picante e fontina fettuccine is pretty much perfect.
Emily D'AlessandrisAugust 12, 2014Grilled cheese, great music, and fine wine. All things lead to a good night!
Lucille BJanuary 31, 2016Good thing the wine doesn't come in a box, or Buster would destroy the bathroom.
