I am giving it a 3 because we only had the salad a Mac and cheese and A side of potatoes am giving it the benefit of the doubt that everything else in the menu was good. The salad was good, the mac n cheese was not Mac and cheese it was noodles in a loose sauce that had a lite flavor of cheese but was a far stretch to a Mac n cheese. The smashed potatoes were pasty and bland. All and all not a great experience. Staff was excellent

Showed up at 8:30pm for a late dinner, told turned us away and told us that they where closing. Told the hostess that they need to change there hours on Yelp, it only takes a couple of minutes, yet we where inconvenienced by going out of our way by 15 minutes, change your hours on Yelp!!!

Randomly stopped in one afternoon. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a short rib sandwich, and it was not very exciting. Their meat was tender and juicy, but lacked in flavor. I was told they were famous for this item. Sides were potato salad and a salad. Both were ok. Meal was not worth he price though, especially for a quick lunch. $20+ for one person. Will not return.
(3)Johnny J.
My bartender was awesome!! But my 22$ meal tasted like Campbell chunky soup, confirmed by my 2 friends, all good tho
(1)Katy W.
I love this place. Always welcoming, I never feel uncomfortable going in for lunch or dinner and sitting at the bar alone. The food is always changing and their chalkboard specials have never disappointed. I am obsessed with the pan fried chicken with green chile/ricotta stuffed homemade crepe. The service is always good. The owners, Taryn and Jennifer set high expectations and I feel they hire the right people every time because the servers are always friendly and helpful even when the restaurant is on a 2 hour wait. All in all, one of my favorites and I'll continue to keep coming in.

Only had beer and wine on the patio with our dog but would definitely come back. Great service great ambiance great views of the square. Sophisticated yet casual. Really enjoyed the place.

We decided midday yesterday to eat downtown at Cuvee 928, a place we hadn't been for quite a while. The menu looked new to us, and had more options that appealed to us than we remembered on previous visits. We split the duck confit on sage dressing and the pan fried chicken on a crepe that was filled with cheese and had some green chilies added. Both were excellent, although the green chilies a bit hidden. The presentation of the chicken was especially nice. Since it was a Friday and the weather perfect, we had hoped to eat outside and listen to the music from Heritage Square. We snagged a really nice outside table, but couldn't hear the music for the noise of the crowd. Still, it's a great place for people watching, so the evening did not disappoint.
(4)Robert G.
Delightful dinner for two, one who had blackened ahi with polenta and broiled cauliflower, and I who had duck confit. Sublime.
(4)Tony D.
Nice location in downtown Flagstaff with friendly service. Food is excellent. We will be back.

I have reviewed Cuvee 928 before, and, as then, five stars. Great service, very good food, and a wide and varied wine list that is not over priced. Whenever I come up from Phoenix, I have to go by. Nice to sit outside at the square and dog watch. However, a menu change inspires another 5 star review. Just had their ratoullie with roasted tomato sauce and my lord! Wonderful, awesome, sublime! I am not a vegetarian but was in the mood for something slightly lighter. A tight loaf of roasted, narrowly sliced veggies over polenta topped by a roasted tomato salsa. YUUUUUUMMMM. Sad that I can't have it again before I leave.Yep, it was that good I want another helping right now. Anytime, a restaurant inspires me to look up a recipe it is a rare and good thing. Now, if only they would bring back their equally perfect ham sandwich with carmelized onions! Thanks Cuvee!
(5)Matthew M.
One of my absolute favorite places. I would visit flagstaff, Az just to come here. The staff seemed young but very friendly. The outside seating was slightly dark but the patio seating to the side of the restaurant was wonderful. The wine list was great and the fish tacos were too die for. I eat fish tacos every where I go especially in Southern California and this place definitely competes with all of them. Thank you for making my night in flagstaff unforgettable!
(5)Jocelyn G.
Place seemed a little pricey at first. There was only two menu items on the Saturday brunch menu. So we picked between the two. We got our food and were a little surprised at how little we got. But then we tasted it......WOW! Some of the best flavor I've ever had. The food was so well seasoned I didn't care how little it was. I would recommend this place if you want good food but not a mountain of it. For the same price you could get a lot more food somewhere else, but it probably won't be the same quality. Would defiantly come back here on a date maybe, but not with kids or anything.
(4)Jessica R.
This little gem of a restaurant has the best draft beers and a cozy, romantic ambiance. Right in the heart of downtown Flagstaff, we stopped here for a late dinner and the staff was amazing. There was even a live band playing in the corner, and they were such a nice touch to this intimate place. The food was high quality, I would recommend it to anyone for a classy night out with friends or a romantic dinner for two.
(4)Sammie S.
My favorite spot in Flagstaff! I feel they truly care about their products and strive for satisfaction but also integrity. Beautiful combination of flavors from Chef James, there's always something exciting going on here!
(5)Megan M.
Delicious food! I had their chicken marsala meatloaf and it was very different in a good way. The sauce was perfect, and the mashed potatoes were the best part. The waitress was fairly new but still able to describe all the dishes we asked about and offer great suggestions.
(4)Callie A.
Ordered a cheeseburger and mushroom Swiss burger with smashed potatoes...one was overlooked while the other was undercooked. Mediocre at best.
(2)Linn P.
This place gives you the impression that it's really fancy, which is not the case in reality. Service was terrible and slow, food tasteless and expensive - plus they managed to mix up our orders.
(2)David G.
The five stars are taking into account that this is Flagstaff. In Phoenix, it would only rate four stars. But Cuvee 928 is one of only two choices for delicious, innovative, fun food in Flagstaff (along with the Cottage). Cuvee 928 is a wine bar in the historic area of Flagstaff, right on a little mall that often features street performers (in decent weather), and is especially lively on weekends. The wine selections are okay but uninspired, but the food is always good and sometimes very good. At lunch the feature is sandwiches, served on top notch breads and with special meats, such as honey glazed pork loin. The sauces and condiments are selected thoughtfully and add a lot to the sandwich. At night, the menu consists mainly of about ten entrees, and the ones we had were interesting, well-prepared, and tasty -- even the meat loaf. On the downside, you might find it somewhat cramped, and it can get very busy. Parking in the historic area seems tough at first, but just go a block or two in any direction and you will find a spot.
(5)Kier P.
Delicious food-excellent service-great location. Very dog friendly-brought my dog water without having to ask. We had Steak Caesar and a Chopped salad and they were both fantastic. Highly recommend :)
(5)Kelli L.
As always, the food and whiskey choices here were divine.
(4)Kayt B.
This is great place with great service. We went there last night for the first time. I had the pork oso buco and my husband had a skip jack special. Good selection of brew and wine. The price is very reasonable. 50 after bar tab and dinner for 2.
(5)Pietrina M.
Wow. First off, I cannot believe that no one has reviewed this place yet. In Heritage square, next to Monsoon, is Cuvee. My friend, a long time Flagstaffian, and daughter of a French restaurant owner, took me here. I think I have gotten everyone I know hooked since. The staff is amazing. All the women are gorgeous and even though there are no uniforms, they all wear sunny spring dresses and heels. The ambiance is lovely, and the patio is a must on a nice day. The lunch and dinner menu are the same. The vegetarian sandwich is great, but the best ever is the overnight brisket with a cheese fondue dip. Order extra dip, trust me. The sandwiches come with a small salad and the best couscous I have ever had. The ice tea is amazing, and they have a steak salad as a special sometimes, which is also great. Great place to go with girlfriends, cause it has a great dessert menu, which is hard to find in Flag. The barely baked chocolate cake with 5 spice ice cream is so good I crave it, and the creme brulee rivals that of any ritzy creme brulee I have had in major city's' French restaurants. If you are looking for the non-typical Flagstaff place (brewery, greasy spoon, etc) this is the place. TRUST ME.
(5)J. V.
Mixed bag, most of it good, but could be better. The mixed cured beef and cheese appetizer is outstanding, the entrees need work. The amberjack with polenta was tasteless even if it was nicely cooked, and the accompanying polenta and broccolini pretty anonymous; the latter specially was underdone and tough. The pork shank is generous, but if there was Earl Grey in there it took the night off... The risotto was like Army food: some of it was OK, some of it was undercooked, really inconsistent. The rest of the plate, bacon and sweet potato(?) was somewhat undefined, and kind of "hot" in the mouth. Subtlety was definitely not a component of this dish. The wine list is OK; the Bordeaux is grassy enough to pass for a Sauvignon Blanc, although the Macon Villages was austere and clean; Trapiche Malbec is just OK. Pours by the glass are OK, and the Riedel stemware is a plus. As already noted, the TVs are a distraction and downright gauche. In L.A., prices would be about 30% higher, but being cheaper and not better is just a wash. If they tightened up the food and made it a bit less "busy", this place could be really special.
(3)Tj R.
My girlfriend and I went here for Valentine's. It was busy, and they ran out of certain menu items, but what do you expect on one of the busiest restaurant days of the year. I had the locally trout and it was delicious. My girlfriend had the savory crepes and they were delightful. We had an exceptionally long wait, even with a reservation. But our server was nice enough to give us a on the house. I say that's great customer service! I agreed with other reviewers that the TVs are distracting and do not really match with the environment that the restaurant deserves. I would definitely try this place again when it's not so busy!
(4)Jason M.
Went again for another try last night. Started with the mushrooms with goat cheese and truffle oil. Terrible. Basically mushrooms soaked in balsamic vinegar, a few crumbs of cheese and 0 truffle oil. There was no hint of truffle oil. Presentation was lacking!!!! Not even any parsley to present it. I would not bother with that again. Super weak and disappointed! I had the osso bucco. Not bad. I'd say it was good but I felt it was missing depth in the flavor, tasted similar to stew made at home with cheapo ingredients! The meat was done nicely and it was a good amount of food for $22.00 I still wish they served a salad before the meal. It was at least 25min before we got our food. The atmosphere still bothers me. It seems kind of like a bar with pretty good food. I'd like it better if they at least made it a little more dinner like at dinner time. We wanted to sit outside but it was not inviting, nothing on the metal tables at all. It can be very loud inside, especially when you have narcissistic people sitting next to you! My wife had the trout, it was good. Service was fine. I just want a little more out of this place. Not a fan of looking at the liquor stock either from the dining room. At least make the patio that's covered an inviting spot for dinner before winter rolls along. But I suppose they have been doing it this way for while now so keep on trucking.
(3)Edward J.
Found this place after a few disappointing dinning experiences in Flagstaff. A local recommended it and it was great advice. Baked mushrooms with truffle and farmers cheese... I could eat it by the bucket!!! Yum. Tried the pork osso bucco and it was like I would have made it myself. Love this place
(5)Eleana H.
Came here for dinner last night with my bf dog in tow. We ate outside on the patio with two heaters on to warm us up. Waiter was very nice and patient. We didn't catch his name but he had a tattoo on his forearms. We ordered the squash spaghetti and the brisket .... The squash spaghetti was the highlight of my night ! Absolutely delicious . They were also very accommodating with our dog which was awesome. Although we are only just visiting from tucson ... I'll have this place in my mind if I ever come back :)
(5)Ron D.
Don't know if I have ever reviewed this place but have been here before several times. Nice selection of wines and good food. Just went on for a glass of wine and the spinach dip appetizer tonight and it was great. Good service. I don' think their prices are out of line either.
(5)Tom G.
If your a local you'll get served right away...from out of town, expect to wait a long time
(2)Jen R.
So I asked the lady on the phone, expecting a resounding "No", if "by chance, this place had a patio with heaters that's dog friendly.. Oh, and is the kitchen still open?" She said YES!?! So here we are in 34 degree temp, enjoying a perfectly poured glass of wine and the most extraordinary smoked salmon w/ egg salad appetizer (who knew?!?!) With our pup, of course. Enjoying the local downtown scenery. Thanks to Greg, our server, for braving the chill to come out here and serve us;)
(5)Bethie G.
The only word to describe the last visit to Cuvée is "exquisite". I cannot say thank you enough to Cuvée 928 for the exceptional service and dinner that I was able to enjoy with my visiting parents. Everything from the cocktails to the main courses of green chili Mac and cheese, New York strip cooked to perfection, and the specialty salmon was absolutely exquisite. It was such a joy to share a taste of our mountain town and the unsurpassed cuisine that we enjoy here courtesy of your kitchen and service. Thank you, thank you! (Leah was our server.)
(5)Animal L.
Went here for happy hour on 11/12. Had excellent service from Hugh. The macaroni and cheese was disappointing and dry and he changed it out, no problem, no hassle. The sliders were delicious. Crème brûlée delicious. Had a good red blend. Will definitely be back to check out dinner.
(5)Brianna T.
I looked up this place before heading up to Flagstaff and was expecting wonderful things. It was definitely supposed to be the dining highlight of the trip. First, the food: Spinach and artichoke dip for an appetizer. The entire table enjoyed it. I had the duck confit. Excellent, and the polenta was deliciously cheesy. The mister had the lamb meatloaf. He loved it, and I was pretty pleased with the few bites I had as well. My sister got the blackened fish tacos and said they were "Honestly? Disgusting." Everything about them was disappointing - from the sauce with too much mayo to the overall blend of flavors. Her hubs got the cuvee cheeseburger - pretty hard to mess that one up, but he was pleased. Overall, four stars for entrees. For dessert, I ordered the lavender creme brulee to share. The crust was so overdone, the burnt taste was overpowering. The mister commented that he could hardly taste anything but "burnt." Absolute garbage, and a huge disappointment. Knocked off a star there. The service. The boys got beers, and their drinks were replenished quickly. Our waters, however, were not refilled once during our dinner. I asked for a modification on the duck (it comes with a cherry-bacon sauce and I asked for no bacon), and apparently that was too confusing. Our server first said it couldn't be made without the bacon. So I asked, since it's apparently pre-made, if I could try the sauce first. She came back and said no, that I couldn't try it because the sauce is made with the duck. What? Either it's pre-made and I can try it, or it's not pre-made and I can get it without the bacon. After talking to another waitress, we got it sorted out. (It is not pre-made and I was able to get the accommodation requested.) The food was so good I won't dock two stars for service, but I felt $10 on a $72 tab was INCREDIBLY generous given the service we received. The first rule of serving is never to let a customer's water glass run dry. I stole water from the boys and left the empties where they could be clearly seen, and nothing. If we got better service, I might have enjoyed it. I would hesitate to recommend.

I've been to Cuvee several times for lunch, and it's fine. Sandwich and cold cous cous salads. Ok. Sometimes the service has been great, other times slow. But whatever. A few weeks ago a friend and I popped in for a drink before an 8pm show- it was about 7:15. One employee told us to go into a second room, a second said it was closed for a private party that started at 8. We said we had somewhere to be at 8, no problem, we'd be gone before 8. She said ok. The second employee relayed this to the bartender in the second room, who said, you HAVE to be out by 8, do you understand?! We left. I don't need to beg three people to LET me spend money in their bar. If I worked there, I'd seat us and if we weren't OUT BY 8, remind us the private party was there and could we move out into the main room? But what do I know? I won't be back. What I've seen is mediocre and, again, there are plenty of places in town that won't make me beg to give them money.
(1)Amy C.
Happened upon it while in town visiting NAU. Super good food, especially the spicy chicken, ham, blue cheese panini!!! Great service- will definitely be back!
(5)James P.
This was a nice find! It was pouring down rain and they had underground parking - nice! We ordered a Cheese plate, it can with nuts (Great!) I also had the Chop Salad (Good). My friend had the Tuna sandwich, he said it was great!
(4)Robyn M.
Friendly neighborhood place. Patio is great. Jalapeño Mac and cheese fabulous!! I love coming here. Husband loves the steak.
(5)Larr G.
We have been eating at Cuvee 928 since it opened. We have also hosted a large party at Cuvee. We have stopped in for a light snack, full meals or just to have glass of wine. Does not matter, the service is always good and the food is excellent. For a real treat I suggest late afternoon or early evening, summer time of course, on the patio which is right on the square downtown. It is a wonderful setting. For lunch my wife and I will often share an Overnight Beef Brisket plate and something else from the menu. I recommend the Pork Tenderloin, Lobster Mac N Cheese, Stuffed Portobello or the Duck Confit. I have never been disappointed. Unlike some of the other folks who have reviewed Cuvee, I do not take issue with the prices, but then I have eaten at many places where dinner for two will run 200 to 300 bills, with wine. As I mentioned above, we hosted a party at Cuvee. We had the whole backroom. The menu that we chose was all finger food, with a few things from off the menu. Again the service was great. One of the things that I really appreciated was that the manager allowed us to bring in a birthday cake at no extra charge (many places will charge a small fee to bring in outside specialties). In this case the "cake" was a kransekager. Not some thing that you find on the streets of Flagstaff. My wife eats at Cuvee often enough (cannot be too pricey, then can it) that many of the wait staff remember her food allergies. Not bad and much appreciated. If you are visiting Flagstaff or just passing through walk around the downtown area and stop in for at least a glass of wine on the square at Cuvee.
(5)Crystal B.
Had another great dinner here last night! Fish tacos are delicious and the beet salad is amazing! Great location on the square and really nice atmosphere! Love it!
(5)C F.
I've eaten here 3 times since they opened. Once right when they opened and I wasn't a fan. I ate lunch and dinner there recently and they've certainly gotten better. For dinner, I had the daily special Mac and Cheese with andouille sausage, and it was totally worth $12 price tag. I would likely not have it again just because there are other things to try, but would recommend it. For lunch, I had the Rising Hy Pastrami Reuben with potato salad and mixed greens. This tasty sandwich is $10 and I would have paid $15. The bread is toasted in the panini grill and has a good crunch on the outside and a soft interior. The Rising Hy mustard is a local mustard with seeds and a bit of welcome heat. The pastrami was moist and full of flavor. The potato salad was excellent, I enjoyed the texture and the flavor. Friend got the beef sandwich with onion aioli and blue cheese fondue. He was less impressed saying the fondue could have used some salt and pepper and that the aioli was bland. The service these last 2 times was great and the waitresses were attentive. I will return to try some other things and see if the score continues to rise.
(3)Ashley S.
Went here for Valentines Day 2014. Really thought they would have a special menu for this romantic holiday, but they didn't. The decor was blah, tables bare but overall good food and wine. I think I'll come back for my birthday dinner.
(4)Juliette L.
Delightful! I really enjoyed this place. Best salad in miles and perfect ambiance.
(4)D D.
Overpriced incredibly small portions. Had salmon salad and it had less than 1 tablespoon of salmon. 2 salads 1 entree 3 glasses of wine and $60.00 !! Better food cheaper elsewhwere. Will never come back.
(1)Melissa J.
Wow this was an awesome lunch. I got a baked mushroom panini. The bread was great. The tomatoes on it were great. Everything on it was super great. I'm always checking out hot sandwiches and this one was a winner in my book. The cous cous I got on the side was also awesome. It didn't look like any cous cous I'd ever had before, but it was so delicious. I'd eat a bowl of that alone for lunch. Probably not the cheapest lunch you could have in Flagstaff but definitely one of the tastiest.
(5)Julie R.
Agreed- location is great.... so is the layout and ambiance. Cuvee 928 is right by all of the downtown Flagstaff bars. Additionally, this is a venue that can be walked into at 9:00pm and not feel uncomfortable ordering a leisurely dinner. Going off of another Yelp review, we ordered the Salmon App- very delicious is you like fishy seafood. The artichoke app was more popular amongst our party of seven. They allowed me to add on the side salad for ~$4 (a deal they no longer ofter but can be found on a 'pdf' online). I ordered the steak with mushroom sauce... and that's exactly what I got- nothing more nothing less (glad I ordered the side salad). You can't look at the online menu and know what they are going to be serving that night. I believe they try to serve a "seasonal" menu, but they are faster at preparing the food than they are at changing the menu online. Since we had checked out the online menu before hand, I was disappointed when those items were not on the current menu. The items we did order were acceptable.... BUT the fact that they were each about $25-not that impressed. I would really like to give Cuvee 928 more stars... but considering what/ how much we recieved for the price payed... I cannot do that.
(3)Brandi B.
yummy ever changing menu/specials, friendly waitstaff. accommodation cook. delicious food. good patio. lovely owner lady, very nice when i had a small mistake, also left my wallet there before & they held it. cant say enough nice things about them. miss u Cuve
(5)Zach C.
Every single time I am back in Flagstaff, I make it a priority to get to Cuvee 928 for lunch for the brisket sandwich with Israeli cous cous and salad. If they ever stop serving this sandwich for lunch, it could cause some serious problems for me. I highly recommend this choice for lunch (you will thank me) but if you decide to go with something else, I can say with conviction that everything else on the menu is great. Their meals are very well executed and they have a great wine/beer list. I miss you Cuvee 928.
(5)Rob S.
We were in Flagstaff for the day and wanted to find a nice place with a good patio to enjoy the weather on....Cuvee came up! Pork brisket sandwich was tasty and the hummus appetizer was a very pleasant surprise. Enjoyed our time on the patio eating our lunch and people watching. Will definitely keep it in mind next time I'm in town hanging out or passing through. Note: keep in mind this is a wine bar as well, with plenty of indoor seating.
(5)Sarah W.
Great food- too pricey for lunch!.. Me n my husband just spent $50 on a salad, a sandwich and hummus appetizer. Nice place, good food . $$$$$
(4)Neil C.
Friendly service and great drinks. What could be better?
(5)Mb S.
Been there once before. Service a little better than most places in Flagstaff. The menu listed on Yelp is out of date. The duck confit was delicious but a wee bit salty for my taste. The other diners were unimpressed, short ribs were a greasy mess; vegitarian selection is disappointing. Mahi Mahi tacos were very tasty but not spectacular. We all agreed OVERPRICED! TV with sports cast is out of place - its not a sports bar.
(3)Oliver K.
Going to Cuvee 928 is like being invited to a friend's house for dinner and agreeing to go because you heard that he lived in a really cool house, his mom was hot, and she cooked great food. It turns out his house was a cold icebox with cement floors, too many windows, and his mom was just OK-looking. His mom only knows how to take comfort food and add strange ingredients to make it seem hip and cool. It tastes OK, I guess. Fortunately, she keeps good beer and wine on hand. All her friends sit around the house drinking wine while staring at themselves in the window, and talking way too loud. When I tried to leave she took all my money and called my mom to say I had to cut her grass ten times this summer -- for free! What a rip!
(2)George P.
The absolute best dinner in flagstaff. Great beer selection. Top notch food prepared with care. Friendly service. A must try when passing through town.
(5)Pete S.
Hey this place is delicious.. They have some good beer, wine, specials.... Food is really good....
(5)Katie M.
Cuvee is always wonderful! We stop in here on most mondays for their burger and a beer special! We are always greeted with a smile, the waitress even remembers our order, and makes us feel very welcome! Not only are their burgers awesome, but we went there for corned beef and cabbage on st pats day, and I was blown away! I don't remember ever liking corned beef so much! Thanks for the amazing deals, killer foods, and great service (: Katie
(5)Ken S.
Ate there Monday night and we had a nice time. Food was good and so was the service.
(3)Alex A.
This restaurant is one of the best in Flagstaff in my opinion. Despite what others might say, the design of the restaurant is very elegant and provides and excellent romantic environment. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the low lighting and windowed front that opened up onto a snowy Heritage Square. As for the food, it was excellent. Our appetizer was delicious, set up the palette for our entrees and was the perfect size. The entree I had (brisket en crôute) was one of the few dishes I have ever had that surprised me with how good it was and how balanced the tastes were. My girlfriend said the same about her meal. Unfortunately, due to our further plans, we did not try the wines, but will the next time we return to Cuvée 928. The service was also very good. I got the atmosphere of a family owned restaurant with a small, knowledgable staff. Overall this is one of the best restaurants on Flagstaff. I would definitely recommend it to any of my friends and will surely return.
(5)Georgina D.
This is a great place to meet up with friends especially when the weather is nice. They do have outdoor heaters on the patio which is where I prefer to sit and people watch on Heritage Square Downtown Flagstaff. Have a nice bottle of wine and appetizers (good artichoke dip) and unwind the day.
(5)Sarah L.
Cuvee 928 is a must if you are going to Flagstaff. The food, location and service are all great. It's definitely a trifecta of awesome. We were only in Flagstaff for the day and Cuvee seemed like the perfect place to sit on patio and watch the world go by. Indeed, it was. I had a raspberry French75. I'm not really into fruity cocktails, so I was a bit nervous of ordering this, but if there's a French75 on the menu, you gotta order it, right? I was really impressed. It was a French75 with a little muddled raspberry, no fake raspberry or syrupy sweetness at all. Hooray! We ordered the smoked salmon appetizer. I appreciated that it came with cucumber slices and apple slices - really refreshing flavors with the salmon and dill creme fraiche. We also ordered fish tacos, which I've been dreaming about ever since. Seriously, I recognize I have a bit of a taco problem and could probably eat tacos every day for the rest of my life, but these were delicious. Lots of cabbage crunch, lots of spice and a generous amount of filling in each. They probably aren't great if you are trying eat in a prim and proper manner, they're a little messy. Finally, we finished dinner off with some Earl Grey Truffles. Dark chocolate with a hint of bergamot. Very smooth, very chocolate, very worthy of ordering on your own without intention of sharing. I've only been there once, but hope to get back!
(5)Sarah Y.
Cuvee 928 is by no means cheap, but it is totally worth it. I enjoyed every bite of my appetizer, salad, and entree. Even if it is relatively pricey, everyone in Flagstaff should try Cuvee 928 at least once.
(4)Ry P.
Third time eating here. Decent wine selection, ok prices. Filet was good, cooked properly, sauce was soupy but flavorful, earthy and robust. Chicken parm on the other hand was outright BAD. Fake prepackaged parm, over burned chicken on overcooked noodles. Yikes. Server recommended this atrocity, whereas decent menu items went unmentioned. Felt somewhat unwelcome (as locals).
(3)Sea H.
Try their potato salad and Avocado wrap, service was great and you just feel welcomed here.
(4)Roselyn A.
Great food and service, fantastic patio. Cuvee is an EXPERIENCE not to be missed. The cheeseboard is a favorite - but everything here is good!
(5)Russ Y.
Cheese plate is $12 and it looks like they forgot to add the cheese! Poor value
(3)Gretchen G.
Our dusty hiking group of four stopped in for a well-earned lunch. They made us feel very welcome despite our appearance. The brisket was heavenly and the veggie wrap was also delicious. We shared a bottle of Riesling and were soon human again. Thank you Cuvee'!

Went here on a Wednesday night looking for a relaxing, upscale environment and that's exactly what I found. The staff was friendly, the menu was tasty, and the drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. I'll definitely go back.
(4)Donnie B.
Delicious food...Their 928 specialty cocktail was awesome.
(4)Amanda R.
We enjoyed a visit to Cuvee 928 on a really warm February day and sat outside on the patio. The service was great, so was the wine list. It is a classy but casual place and the food is fairly priced. We split a panini and thoroughly enjoyed it.
(4)Food E.
This place is classy. It's not overpriced and I don't feel uncomfortable if I'm just myself, not all dressed up like some of the patrons. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is fun. The patio is awesome in the summer, but generally hard to get a spot. Their menu changes frequently, using ingredients from other places, like Satchmo's, who I love!
(4)Andy F.
A little pricey but good food and nice ambience

Went to Flag for the weekend and stopped into this wine bar for a drink. Nice wine selection and drink menu, and the prices were reasonable. Services was fast and efficient. My only beef is that the red wine was served warm. However, the peach bellini was one of the best I've had in the states. Also, the patio was primo.
(3)Kyle R.
Since their expansion they are now a full service restaurant. They sell great food at reasonable prices. Relaxed atmosphere. I'm a total foodie and I've eaten at most of the known places in NAZ. It is my favorite restaurant in NAZ.
(5)Michelle L.
This is my absolute favorite wine bar/gourmet eats place! We live in Flagstaff part-time and our first and last stop is always Cuvee 928. The food is created with basic, fresh, and delicious ingredients put together in a fantastic way. The atmosphere is casual, elegant with a great patio overlooking heritage square - great people watching. If sitting inside, the all window walls make for a great view of downtown while savoring your wine. There are excellent daily specials on wine and food. With regular tastings and $10 bottle nights, there is always something great going on at Cuvee 928. I love this place!
(5)Will P.
Good food. I really like the atmosphere and service. Four stars for the price.
(4)Georgina D.
This is a great place to meet up with friends especially when the weather is nice. They do have outdoor heaters on the patio which is where I prefer to sit and people watch on Heritage Square Downtown Flagstaff. Have a nice bottle of wine and appetizers (good artichoke dip) and unwind the day.
(5)Sarah L.
Cuvee 928 is a must if you are going to Flagstaff. The food, location and service are all great. It's definitely a trifecta of awesome. We were only in Flagstaff for the day and Cuvee seemed like the perfect place to sit on patio and watch the world go by. Indeed, it was. I had a raspberry French75. I'm not really into fruity cocktails, so I was a bit nervous of ordering this, but if there's a French75 on the menu, you gotta order it, right? I was really impressed. It was a French75 with a little muddled raspberry, no fake raspberry or syrupy sweetness at all. Hooray! We ordered the smoked salmon appetizer. I appreciated that it came with cucumber slices and apple slices - really refreshing flavors with the salmon and dill creme fraiche. We also ordered fish tacos, which I've been dreaming about ever since. Seriously, I recognize I have a bit of a taco problem and could probably eat tacos every day for the rest of my life, but these were delicious. Lots of cabbage crunch, lots of spice and a generous amount of filling in each. They probably aren't great if you are trying eat in a prim and proper manner, they're a little messy. Finally, we finished dinner off with some Earl Grey Truffles. Dark chocolate with a hint of bergamot. Very smooth, very chocolate, very worthy of ordering on your own without intention of sharing. I've only been there once, but hope to get back!
(5)Sarah Y.
Cuvee 928 is by no means cheap, but it is totally worth it. I enjoyed every bite of my appetizer, salad, and entree. Even if it is relatively pricey, everyone in Flagstaff should try Cuvee 928 at least once.
(4)Ry P.
Third time eating here. Decent wine selection, ok prices. Filet was good, cooked properly, sauce was soupy but flavorful, earthy and robust. Chicken parm on the other hand was outright BAD. Fake prepackaged parm, over burned chicken on overcooked noodles. Yikes. Server recommended this atrocity, whereas decent menu items went unmentioned. Felt somewhat unwelcome (as locals).
(3)Sea H.
Try their potato salad and Avocado wrap, service was great and you just feel welcomed here.
(4)Roselyn A.
Great food and service, fantastic patio. Cuvee is an EXPERIENCE not to be missed. The cheeseboard is a favorite - but everything here is good!
(5)Russ Y.
Cheese plate is $12 and it looks like they forgot to add the cheese! Poor value

I have reviewed Cuvee 928 before, and, as then, five stars. Great service, very good food, and a wide and varied wine list that is not over priced. Whenever I come up from Phoenix, I have to go by. Nice to sit outside at the square and dog watch. However, a menu change inspires another 5 star review. Just had their ratoullie with roasted tomato sauce and my lord! Wonderful, awesome, sublime! I am not a vegetarian but was in the mood for something slightly lighter. A tight loaf of roasted, narrowly sliced veggies over polenta topped by a roasted tomato salsa. YUUUUUUMMMM. Sad that I can't have it again before I leave.Yep, it was that good I want another helping right now. Anytime, a restaurant inspires me to look up a recipe it is a rare and good thing. Now, if only they would bring back their equally perfect ham sandwich with carmelized onions! Thanks Cuvee!
(5)Barry L.
We decided midday yesterday to eat downtown at Cuvee 928, a place we hadn't been for quite a while. The menu looked new to us, and had more options that appealed to us than we remembered on previous visits. We split the duck confit on sage dressing and the pan fried chicken on a crepe that was filled with cheese and had some green chilies added. Both were excellent, although the green chilies a bit hidden. The presentation of the chicken was especially nice. Since it was a Friday and the weather perfect, we had hoped to eat outside and listen to the music from Heritage Square. We snagged a really nice outside table, but couldn't hear the music for the noise of the crowd. Still, it's a great place for people watching, so the evening did not disappoint.
(4)Robert G.
Delightful dinner for two, one who had blackened ahi with polenta and broiled cauliflower, and I who had duck confit. Sublime.
(4)Kier P.
Delicious food-excellent service-great location. Very dog friendly-brought my dog water without having to ask. We had Steak Caesar and a Chopped salad and they were both fantastic. Highly recommend :)
(5)Kelli L.
As always, the food and whiskey choices here were divine.
(4)Kayt B.
This is great place with great service. We went there last night for the first time. I had the pork oso buco and my husband had a skip jack special. Good selection of brew and wine. The price is very reasonable. 50 after bar tab and dinner for 2.
(5)J. V.
Mixed bag, most of it good, but could be better. The mixed cured beef and cheese appetizer is outstanding, the entrees need work. The amberjack with polenta was tasteless even if it was nicely cooked, and the accompanying polenta and broccolini pretty anonymous; the latter specially was underdone and tough. The pork shank is generous, but if there was Earl Grey in there it took the night off... The risotto was like Army food: some of it was OK, some of it was undercooked, really inconsistent. The rest of the plate, bacon and sweet potato(?) was somewhat undefined, and kind of "hot" in the mouth. Subtlety was definitely not a component of this dish. The wine list is OK; the Bordeaux is grassy enough to pass for a Sauvignon Blanc, although the Macon Villages was austere and clean; Trapiche Malbec is just OK. Pours by the glass are OK, and the Riedel stemware is a plus. As already noted, the TVs are a distraction and downright gauche. In L.A., prices would be about 30% higher, but being cheaper and not better is just a wash. If they tightened up the food and made it a bit less "busy", this place could be really special.
(3)Tj R.
My girlfriend and I went here for Valentine's. It was busy, and they ran out of certain menu items, but what do you expect on one of the busiest restaurant days of the year. I had the locally trout and it was delicious. My girlfriend had the savory crepes and they were delightful. We had an exceptionally long wait, even with a reservation. But our server was nice enough to give us a on the house. I say that's great customer service! I agreed with other reviewers that the TVs are distracting and do not really match with the environment that the restaurant deserves. I would definitely try this place again when it's not so busy!
(4)Tony D.
Nice location in downtown Flagstaff with friendly service. Food is excellent. We will be back.
(5)Jason M.
Went again for another try last night. Started with the mushrooms with goat cheese and truffle oil. Terrible. Basically mushrooms soaked in balsamic vinegar, a few crumbs of cheese and 0 truffle oil. There was no hint of truffle oil. Presentation was lacking!!!! Not even any parsley to present it. I would not bother with that again. Super weak and disappointed! I had the osso bucco. Not bad. I'd say it was good but I felt it was missing depth in the flavor, tasted similar to stew made at home with cheapo ingredients! The meat was done nicely and it was a good amount of food for $22.00 I still wish they served a salad before the meal. It was at least 25min before we got our food. The atmosphere still bothers me. It seems kind of like a bar with pretty good food. I'd like it better if they at least made it a little more dinner like at dinner time. We wanted to sit outside but it was not inviting, nothing on the metal tables at all. It can be very loud inside, especially when you have narcissistic people sitting next to you! My wife had the trout, it was good. Service was fine. I just want a little more out of this place. Not a fan of looking at the liquor stock either from the dining room. At least make the patio that's covered an inviting spot for dinner before winter rolls along. But I suppose they have been doing it this way for while now so keep on trucking.
(3)Steph H.
I am giving it a 3 because we only had the salad a Mac and cheese and A side of potatoes am giving it the benefit of the doubt that everything else in the menu was good. The salad was good, the mac n cheese was not Mac and cheese it was noodles in a loose sauce that had a lite flavor of cheese but was a far stretch to a Mac n cheese. The smashed potatoes were pasty and bland. All and all not a great experience. Staff was excellent
(3)Ariel F.
Showed up at 8:30pm for a late dinner, told turned us away and told us that they where closing. Told the hostess that they need to change there hours on Yelp, it only takes a couple of minutes, yet we where inconvenienced by going out of our way by 15 minutes, change your hours on Yelp!!!
(1)Matthew G.
Randomly stopped in one afternoon. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a short rib sandwich, and it was not very exciting. Their meat was tender and juicy, but lacked in flavor. I was told they were famous for this item. Sides were potato salad and a salad. Both were ok. Meal was not worth he price though, especially for a quick lunch. $20+ for one person. Will not return.
(3)Johnny J.
My bartender was awesome!! But my 22$ meal tasted like Campbell chunky soup, confirmed by my 2 friends, all good tho
(1)Katy W.
I love this place. Always welcoming, I never feel uncomfortable going in for lunch or dinner and sitting at the bar alone. The food is always changing and their chalkboard specials have never disappointed. I am obsessed with the pan fried chicken with green chile/ricotta stuffed homemade crepe. The service is always good. The owners, Taryn and Jennifer set high expectations and I feel they hire the right people every time because the servers are always friendly and helpful even when the restaurant is on a 2 hour wait. All in all, one of my favorites and I'll continue to keep coming in.
(5)Lisa S.
Only had beer and wine on the patio with our dog but would definitely come back. Great service great ambiance great views of the square. Sophisticated yet casual. Really enjoyed the place.
(5)Sammie S.
My favorite spot in Flagstaff! I feel they truly care about their products and strive for satisfaction but also integrity. Beautiful combination of flavors from Chef James, there's always something exciting going on here!
(5)Megan M.
Delicious food! I had their chicken marsala meatloaf and it was very different in a good way. The sauce was perfect, and the mashed potatoes were the best part. The waitress was fairly new but still able to describe all the dishes we asked about and offer great suggestions.
(4)Callie A.
Ordered a cheeseburger and mushroom Swiss burger with smashed potatoes...one was overlooked while the other was undercooked. Mediocre at best.
(2)Linn P.
This place gives you the impression that it's really fancy, which is not the case in reality. Service was terrible and slow, food tasteless and expensive - plus they managed to mix up our orders.
(2)Jocelyn G.
Place seemed a little pricey at first. There was only two menu items on the Saturday brunch menu. So we picked between the two. We got our food and were a little surprised at how little we got. But then we tasted it......WOW! Some of the best flavor I've ever had. The food was so well seasoned I didn't care how little it was. I would recommend this place if you want good food but not a mountain of it. For the same price you could get a lot more food somewhere else, but it probably won't be the same quality. Would defiantly come back here on a date maybe, but not with kids or anything.
(4)Matthew M.
One of my absolute favorite places. I would visit flagstaff, Az just to come here. The staff seemed young but very friendly. The outside seating was slightly dark but the patio seating to the side of the restaurant was wonderful. The wine list was great and the fish tacos were too die for. I eat fish tacos every where I go especially in Southern California and this place definitely competes with all of them. Thank you for making my night in flagstaff unforgettable!
(5)Jessica R.
This little gem of a restaurant has the best draft beers and a cozy, romantic ambiance. Right in the heart of downtown Flagstaff, we stopped here for a late dinner and the staff was amazing. There was even a live band playing in the corner, and they were such a nice touch to this intimate place. The food was high quality, I would recommend it to anyone for a classy night out with friends or a romantic dinner for two.
(4)Edward J.
Found this place after a few disappointing dinning experiences in Flagstaff. A local recommended it and it was great advice. Baked mushrooms with truffle and farmers cheese... I could eat it by the bucket!!! Yum. Tried the pork osso bucco and it was like I would have made it myself. Love this place
(5)Andrew B.
Went here on a Wednesday night looking for a relaxing, upscale environment and that's exactly what I found. The staff was friendly, the menu was tasty, and the drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. I'll definitely go back.

(4)Jen R.
So I asked the lady on the phone, expecting a resounding "No", if "by chance, this place had a patio with heaters that's dog friendly.. Oh, and is the kitchen still open?" She said YES!?! So here we are in 34 degree temp, enjoying a perfectly poured glass of wine and the most extraordinary smoked salmon w/ egg salad appetizer (who knew?!?!) With our pup, of course. Enjoying the local downtown scenery. Thanks to Greg, our server, for braving the chill to come out here and serve us;)
(5)Eleana H.
Came here for dinner last night with my bf dog in tow. We ate outside on the patio with two heaters on to warm us up. Waiter was very nice and patient. We didn't catch his name but he had a tattoo on his forearms. We ordered the squash spaghetti and the brisket .... The squash spaghetti was the highlight of my night ! Absolutely delicious . They were also very accommodating with our dog which was awesome. Although we are only just visiting from tucson ... I'll have this place in my mind if I ever come back :)
(5)Ron D.
Don't know if I have ever reviewed this place but have been here before several times. Nice selection of wines and good food. Just went on for a glass of wine and the spinach dip appetizer tonight and it was great. Good service. I don' think their prices are out of line either.
(5)Tom G.
If your a local you'll get served right away...from out of town, expect to wait a long time
(2)James P.
This was a nice find! It was pouring down rain and they had underground parking - nice! We ordered a Cheese plate, it can with nuts (Great!) I also had the Chop Salad (Good). My friend had the Tuna sandwich, he said it was great!
(4)Robyn M.
Friendly neighborhood place. Patio is great. Jalapeño Mac and cheese fabulous!! I love coming here. Husband loves the steak.
(5)Larr G.
We have been eating at Cuvee 928 since it opened. We have also hosted a large party at Cuvee. We have stopped in for a light snack, full meals or just to have glass of wine. Does not matter, the service is always good and the food is excellent. For a real treat I suggest late afternoon or early evening, summer time of course, on the patio which is right on the square downtown. It is a wonderful setting. For lunch my wife and I will often share an Overnight Beef Brisket plate and something else from the menu. I recommend the Pork Tenderloin, Lobster Mac N Cheese, Stuffed Portobello or the Duck Confit. I have never been disappointed. Unlike some of the other folks who have reviewed Cuvee, I do not take issue with the prices, but then I have eaten at many places where dinner for two will run 200 to 300 bills, with wine. As I mentioned above, we hosted a party at Cuvee. We had the whole backroom. The menu that we chose was all finger food, with a few things from off the menu. Again the service was great. One of the things that I really appreciated was that the manager allowed us to bring in a birthday cake at no extra charge (many places will charge a small fee to bring in outside specialties). In this case the "cake" was a kransekager. Not some thing that you find on the streets of Flagstaff. My wife eats at Cuvee often enough (cannot be too pricey, then can it) that many of the wait staff remember her food allergies. Not bad and much appreciated. If you are visiting Flagstaff or just passing through walk around the downtown area and stop in for at least a glass of wine on the square at Cuvee.
(5)Crystal B.
Had another great dinner here last night! Fish tacos are delicious and the beet salad is amazing! Great location on the square and really nice atmosphere! Love it!
(5)Bethie G.
The only word to describe the last visit to Cuvée is "exquisite". I cannot say thank you enough to Cuvée 928 for the exceptional service and dinner that I was able to enjoy with my visiting parents. Everything from the cocktails to the main courses of green chili Mac and cheese, New York strip cooked to perfection, and the specialty salmon was absolutely exquisite. It was such a joy to share a taste of our mountain town and the unsurpassed cuisine that we enjoy here courtesy of your kitchen and service. Thank you, thank you! (Leah was our server.)
(5)Animal L.
Went here for happy hour on 11/12. Had excellent service from Hugh. The macaroni and cheese was disappointing and dry and he changed it out, no problem, no hassle. The sliders were delicious. Crème brûlée delicious. Had a good red blend. Will definitely be back to check out dinner.
(5)Brianna T.
I looked up this place before heading up to Flagstaff and was expecting wonderful things. It was definitely supposed to be the dining highlight of the trip. First, the food: Spinach and artichoke dip for an appetizer. The entire table enjoyed it. I had the duck confit. Excellent, and the polenta was deliciously cheesy. The mister had the lamb meatloaf. He loved it, and I was pretty pleased with the few bites I had as well. My sister got the blackened fish tacos and said they were "Honestly? Disgusting." Everything about them was disappointing - from the sauce with too much mayo to the overall blend of flavors. Her hubs got the cuvee cheeseburger - pretty hard to mess that one up, but he was pleased. Overall, four stars for entrees. For dessert, I ordered the lavender creme brulee to share. The crust was so overdone, the burnt taste was overpowering. The mister commented that he could hardly taste anything but "burnt." Absolute garbage, and a huge disappointment. Knocked off a star there. The service. The boys got beers, and their drinks were replenished quickly. Our waters, however, were not refilled once during our dinner. I asked for a modification on the duck (it comes with a cherry-bacon sauce and I asked for no bacon), and apparently that was too confusing. Our server first said it couldn't be made without the bacon. So I asked, since it's apparently pre-made, if I could try the sauce first. She came back and said no, that I couldn't try it because the sauce is made with the duck. What? Either it's pre-made and I can try it, or it's not pre-made and I can get it without the bacon. After talking to another waitress, we got it sorted out. (It is not pre-made and I was able to get the accommodation requested.) The food was so good I won't dock two stars for service, but I felt $10 on a $72 tab was INCREDIBLY generous given the service we received. The first rule of serving is never to let a customer's water glass run dry. I stole water from the boys and left the empties where they could be clearly seen, and nothing. If we got better service, I might have enjoyed it. I would hesitate to recommend.
(2)Sarah E.
I've been to Cuvee several times for lunch, and it's fine. Sandwich and cold cous cous salads. Ok. Sometimes the service has been great, other times slow. But whatever. A few weeks ago a friend and I popped in for a drink before an 8pm show- it was about 7:15. One employee told us to go into a second room, a second said it was closed for a private party that started at 8. We said we had somewhere to be at 8, no problem, we'd be gone before 8. She said ok. The second employee relayed this to the bartender in the second room, who said, you HAVE to be out by 8, do you understand?! We left. I don't need to beg three people to LET me spend money in their bar. If I worked there, I'd seat us and if we weren't OUT BY 8, remind us the private party was there and could we move out into the main room? But what do I know? I won't be back. What I've seen is mediocre and, again, there are plenty of places in town that won't make me beg to give them money.
(1)Amy C.
Happened upon it while in town visiting NAU. Super good food, especially the spicy chicken, ham, blue cheese panini!!! Great service- will definitely be back!
(5)C F.
I've eaten here 3 times since they opened. Once right when they opened and I wasn't a fan. I ate lunch and dinner there recently and they've certainly gotten better. For dinner, I had the daily special Mac and Cheese with andouille sausage, and it was totally worth $12 price tag. I would likely not have it again just because there are other things to try, but would recommend it. For lunch, I had the Rising Hy Pastrami Reuben with potato salad and mixed greens. This tasty sandwich is $10 and I would have paid $15. The bread is toasted in the panini grill and has a good crunch on the outside and a soft interior. The Rising Hy mustard is a local mustard with seeds and a bit of welcome heat. The pastrami was moist and full of flavor. The potato salad was excellent, I enjoyed the texture and the flavor. Friend got the beef sandwich with onion aioli and blue cheese fondue. He was less impressed saying the fondue could have used some salt and pepper and that the aioli was bland. The service these last 2 times was great and the waitresses were attentive. I will return to try some other things and see if the score continues to rise.
(3)Ashley S.
Went here for Valentines Day 2014. Really thought they would have a special menu for this romantic holiday, but they didn't. The decor was blah, tables bare but overall good food and wine. I think I'll come back for my birthday dinner.
(4)David G.
The five stars are taking into account that this is Flagstaff. In Phoenix, it would only rate four stars. But Cuvee 928 is one of only two choices for delicious, innovative, fun food in Flagstaff (along with the Cottage). Cuvee 928 is a wine bar in the historic area of Flagstaff, right on a little mall that often features street performers (in decent weather), and is especially lively on weekends. The wine selections are okay but uninspired, but the food is always good and sometimes very good. At lunch the feature is sandwiches, served on top notch breads and with special meats, such as honey glazed pork loin. The sauces and condiments are selected thoughtfully and add a lot to the sandwich. At night, the menu consists mainly of about ten entrees, and the ones we had were interesting, well-prepared, and tasty -- even the meat loaf. On the downside, you might find it somewhat cramped, and it can get very busy. Parking in the historic area seems tough at first, but just go a block or two in any direction and you will find a spot.
(5)D D.
Overpriced incredibly small portions. Had salmon salad and it had less than 1 tablespoon of salmon. 2 salads 1 entree 3 glasses of wine and $60.00 !! Better food cheaper elsewhwere. Will never come back.
(1)Melissa J.
Wow this was an awesome lunch. I got a baked mushroom panini. The bread was great. The tomatoes on it were great. Everything on it was super great. I'm always checking out hot sandwiches and this one was a winner in my book. The cous cous I got on the side was also awesome. It didn't look like any cous cous I'd ever had before, but it was so delicious. I'd eat a bowl of that alone for lunch. Probably not the cheapest lunch you could have in Flagstaff but definitely one of the tastiest.
(5)Alex A.
This restaurant is one of the best in Flagstaff in my opinion. Despite what others might say, the design of the restaurant is very elegant and provides and excellent romantic environment. My girlfriend and I enjoyed the low lighting and windowed front that opened up onto a snowy Heritage Square. As for the food, it was excellent. Our appetizer was delicious, set up the palette for our entrees and was the perfect size. The entree I had (brisket en crôute) was one of the few dishes I have ever had that surprised me with how good it was and how balanced the tastes were. My girlfriend said the same about her meal. Unfortunately, due to our further plans, we did not try the wines, but will the next time we return to Cuvée 928. The service was also very good. I got the atmosphere of a family owned restaurant with a small, knowledgable staff. Overall this is one of the best restaurants on Flagstaff. I would definitely recommend it to any of my friends and will surely return.
(5)Juliette L.
Delightful! I really enjoyed this place. Best salad in miles and perfect ambiance.
(4)Julie R.
Agreed- location is great.... so is the layout and ambiance. Cuvee 928 is right by all of the downtown Flagstaff bars. Additionally, this is a venue that can be walked into at 9:00pm and not feel uncomfortable ordering a leisurely dinner. Going off of another Yelp review, we ordered the Salmon App- very delicious is you like fishy seafood. The artichoke app was more popular amongst our party of seven. They allowed me to add on the side salad for ~$4 (a deal they no longer ofter but can be found on a 'pdf' online). I ordered the steak with mushroom sauce... and that's exactly what I got- nothing more nothing less (glad I ordered the side salad). You can't look at the online menu and know what they are going to be serving that night. I believe they try to serve a "seasonal" menu, but they are faster at preparing the food than they are at changing the menu online. Since we had checked out the online menu before hand, I was disappointed when those items were not on the current menu. The items we did order were acceptable.... BUT the fact that they were each about $25-not that impressed. I would really like to give Cuvee 928 more stars... but considering what/ how much we recieved for the price payed... I cannot do that.
(3)Brandi B.
yummy ever changing menu/specials, friendly waitstaff. accommodation cook. delicious food. good patio. lovely owner lady, very nice when i had a small mistake, also left my wallet there before & they held it. cant say enough nice things about them. miss u Cuve
(5)Zach C.
Every single time I am back in Flagstaff, I make it a priority to get to Cuvee 928 for lunch for the brisket sandwich with Israeli cous cous and salad. If they ever stop serving this sandwich for lunch, it could cause some serious problems for me. I highly recommend this choice for lunch (you will thank me) but if you decide to go with something else, I can say with conviction that everything else on the menu is great. Their meals are very well executed and they have a great wine/beer list. I miss you Cuvee 928.
(5)Rob S.
We were in Flagstaff for the day and wanted to find a nice place with a good patio to enjoy the weather on....Cuvee came up! Pork brisket sandwich was tasty and the hummus appetizer was a very pleasant surprise. Enjoyed our time on the patio eating our lunch and people watching. Will definitely keep it in mind next time I'm in town hanging out or passing through. Note: keep in mind this is a wine bar as well, with plenty of indoor seating.
(5)Sarah W.
Great food- too pricey for lunch!.. Me n my husband just spent $50 on a salad, a sandwich and hummus appetizer. Nice place, good food . $$$$$
(4)Neil C.
Friendly service and great drinks. What could be better?
(5)C R.
Went to Flag for the weekend and stopped into this wine bar for a drink. Nice wine selection and drink menu, and the prices were reasonable. Services was fast and efficient. My only beef is that the red wine was served warm. However, the peach bellini was one of the best I've had in the states. Also, the patio was primo.
(3)Kyle R.
Since their expansion they are now a full service restaurant. They sell great food at reasonable prices. Relaxed atmosphere. I'm a total foodie and I've eaten at most of the known places in NAZ. It is my favorite restaurant in NAZ.
(5)Michelle L.
This is my absolute favorite wine bar/gourmet eats place! We live in Flagstaff part-time and our first and last stop is always Cuvee 928. The food is created with basic, fresh, and delicious ingredients put together in a fantastic way. The atmosphere is casual, elegant with a great patio overlooking heritage square - great people watching. If sitting inside, the all window walls make for a great view of downtown while savoring your wine. There are excellent daily specials on wine and food. With regular tastings and $10 bottle nights, there is always something great going on at Cuvee 928. I love this place!
(5)Will P.
Good food. I really like the atmosphere and service. Four stars for the price.
(4)Pietrina M.
Wow. First off, I cannot believe that no one has reviewed this place yet. In Heritage square, next to Monsoon, is Cuvee. My friend, a long time Flagstaffian, and daughter of a French restaurant owner, took me here. I think I have gotten everyone I know hooked since. The staff is amazing. All the women are gorgeous and even though there are no uniforms, they all wear sunny spring dresses and heels. The ambiance is lovely, and the patio is a must on a nice day. The lunch and dinner menu are the same. The vegetarian sandwich is great, but the best ever is the overnight brisket with a cheese fondue dip. Order extra dip, trust me. The sandwiches come with a small salad and the best couscous I have ever had. The ice tea is amazing, and they have a steak salad as a special sometimes, which is also great. Great place to go with girlfriends, cause it has a great dessert menu, which is hard to find in Flag. The barely baked chocolate cake with 5 spice ice cream is so good I crave it, and the creme brulee rivals that of any ritzy creme brulee I have had in major city's' French restaurants. If you are looking for the non-typical Flagstaff place (brewery, greasy spoon, etc) this is the place. TRUST ME.

Been there once before. Service a little better than most places in Flagstaff. The menu listed on Yelp is out of date. The duck confit was delicious but a wee bit salty for my taste. The other diners were unimpressed, short ribs were a greasy mess; vegitarian selection is disappointing. Mahi Mahi tacos were very tasty but not spectacular. We all agreed OVERPRICED! TV with sports cast is out of place - its not a sports bar.

Going to Cuvee 928 is like being invited to a friend's house for dinner and agreeing to go because you heard that he lived in a really cool house, his mom was hot, and she cooked great food. It turns out his house was a cold icebox with cement floors, too many windows, and his mom was just OK-looking. His mom only knows how to take comfort food and add strange ingredients to make it seem hip and cool. It tastes OK, I guess. Fortunately, she keeps good beer and wine on hand. All her friends sit around the house drinking wine while staring at themselves in the window, and talking way too loud. When I tried to leave she took all my money and called my mom to say I had to cut her grass ten times this summer -- for free! What a rip!

Cuvee is always wonderful! We stop in here on most mondays for their burger and a beer special! We are always greeted with a smile, the waitress even remembers our order, and makes us feel very welcome! Not only are their burgers awesome, but we went there for corned beef and cabbage on st pats day, and I was blown away! I don't remember ever liking corned beef so much! Thanks for the amazing deals, killer foods, and great service (: Katie

Ate there Monday night and we had a nice time. Food was good and so was the service.

This place is classy. It's not overpriced and I don't feel uncomfortable if I'm just myself, not all dressed up like some of the patrons. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is fun. The patio is awesome in the summer, but generally hard to get a spot. Their menu changes frequently, using ingredients from other places, like Satchmo's, who I love!
