The Scene – Configured like a wine cellar, this cozy restaurant in the basement of Old Town Shopping Center offers Italian and American staples in a pleasing date-night atmosphere. The restaurant makes use of nooks and crannies to create a comfortable, relaxed ambience conducive to hand-holding across the table. – – The Food – Cheese fondue is the signature dish; the traditional Swiss and Gruyere mix and the equally fine cheddar and ale blend are best with sliced cubes of fresh French bread. The wine-grilled artichoke appetizer served with green and gold aioli makes a…
Great choice for dining in Los Gatos!

The Wine Cellar is one of our favorite restaurants. This is where we held our employee Christmas dinner this year since La Fondu was such a disappointment the year before. All eight of us were raving about our meals and we were impressed with how well they managed to serve quickly on such a busy night. We all love the ambience at The Wine Cellar. My husband and I like to pop in there for a glass of wine and an appetizer when we're shopping in Los Gatos. It just has a great feeling there. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The employees are friendly and the service is fast. I highly recommend the short ribs! The only dish we did not like was the "apple crisp" for dessert. It simply was not sweet enough to be a dessert and the topping was not crisp at all. When I gave this feedback to the waiter, he said that there are so many people who come there specifically for the apple crisp, I realized that their recipe is one you either love or hate. But everything else was outstanding, including all the other desserts we ordered. Definitely two thumbs up.
So-so

I read through many reviews to determine the best restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday. The menu looked promising and the management showed that they really cared about their business.
We ordered the abalone, which was pretty tasty. My salmon was also pretty good and so was my husband's duck (order it medium). The sauces (on the abalone, salmon and duck) were the highlight of our night; they really complemented our dishes. At the end of the night, all the food added up to a bit over $100 (without wine). So, everything ended pretty well; nothing special.
I personally thought that our last celebration at Crimson restaurant in Los Gatos was by FAR superior to the Wine Cellar. It was cute, romantic, the food was AMAZING, and the bill including appetizer, 2 entrees, and dessert, and wine was only about $85. I loved it.
Our experience at Wine Cellar paled in comparison to Crimson. I won't be visiting Wine Cellar again because there was really nothing out-of-the-ordinary there.

I just had Valentaine's day dinner with my husband there.
OMG, it was a great dinner! I have never had such tender lamb chops before!
Great wine, great atmosphere, great location too.
I had crab cakes to start off the evening. Crispy outside, moist/soft inside.
I love that waldorf salad with maple vinegarette.
My husband really liked the Tiramisu. I had Napoleon to finish off the evening.
This place never disappoints me.
