• Bar and lounge • Forestville
We started In Good Taste in 2020 with one goal in mind, to make wine more accessible and less intimidating for the everyday drinker. Close friends and co-founders Joe Welch and Zach Feinberg collaborated with award-winning winemaker Matt Smith to source wine from top winemaking regions. Together they curated a portfolio of high-quality wines into tasting flights, featuring six or eight single-glass servings in our patented 187ml mini bottle.As our customers’ palates and preferences expanded, so did our wine selection. In 2023 we opened our first tasting room. Come join us for a flight!

    My son and I had a great experience Saturday the 22nd. They have nice heat lamps outside. The view is amazing, our server was so fun gracious responsive. His name is Samuel. The view was stunning. We could have a nice meal and enjoy the view of San Francisco. Beautiful clear night. We were plenty warm and the margaritas were incredible. ! I highly recommend, sitting outside when it was a bit colder spectacular. A lot of the tables inside the restaurant are along the windows with a nice view. 50% of the inside, seeing all along the windows with the Waterview.
