Uncorked Wine Bar - 900 E 7th St, Austin, TX 78702

Reasons you might like Uncorked:

1)  Patio is pooch-friendly.  Tara M's pit, Mia, had a happy time at Uncorked, with plenty of attention from servers and customers alike.  The employees will even bring out a water dish for Spot, or Fluffy, or whatever you named your dog.

2)  You can bring records to the Uncorked patio, on your way to Rio Rita for the record-player party, and not have to worry about them melting in the 93-degree sun.  Uncorked has ample trees to keep you shaded.  You might want to cover your drink, though.

3)  If you're with a bunch of women, you and your friends may discover yourselves as the subject of a local artist's rendering.  And said artist will thankfully enhance your bustline much more than God did.

4) Monday Happy Hour (3-7pm) means half-price glasses of whatever bottles are already opened, which is almost everything.

5)  Even illiterate people can order wine successfully here, as each wine on the menu has pictures to tell you what color it is, how sweet it is, what flavors you'll taste, etc.

The one and only bad thing about Uncorked:  Don't bring your quiet friends to the patio, at least not during rush hour (okay, so, that's pretty much always on 35).  You'll hear I-35 traffic noise much more readily than your socially timid friends.
