I enjoyed this place immensely. The service was impeccable, the little snack I had was delightful and it was simply a wonderful little place. Good wine and the atmosphere was great

I wish I'd found it sooner!

Could someone update your opening days / hours because I was coming for dinner and you guys are closed. Thanks.

Doesn't live up to the hype. Give Lucinda's a miss.
Went on a Thursday, not busy, Server was very impatient while I selected my wine. Very few choices by the glass and not remarkable.

Food was tasty but very small portion. I am sure there are many better wine bars in this wine and foodie town.

Small and personal with no compromise on genuine service and amazing food. I would recommend leaving it up to the staff to pick your glass of wine - went back multiple times and discovered a new favourite each time.

Loved our experience so much we came back the next day on our trip to Hobart. Couldn't fault the wine, staff or food.

Lowely wine bar with interesting options to pick from. All food here are served cold. The cheese pastery was very good with wine. The food was slighly overpriced.

I had Lucinda on my places to visit in Hobart for so long and we were so disappointed. We were greeted warmly, sat down and ordered a wine, it was downhill from there. After explaining we were there for dinner, we sat there sipping our wine for what felt like almost 30 minutes waiting for the waiter to return to take our order. In this time, he served three other couples, and continued to chat and have conversations with what seemed like regulars to the wine bar and the other staff. We then had to ask if we could order food, after eating oysters the empty plate sat there again for a while before anyone took it away. We almost decided to get up and leave but decided we’d stay, giving them the benefit of the doubt. At this point we almost felt like we were a nuisance being there, and felt the food and wine was fairly overpriced for what it was. From their socials, Lucinda seems like a buzzing place with an enviable menu. The food is ok - but we felt like this venue can’t decide on whether it wants to be a casual wine bar that is more suited to a quick, easy drink that is more social than anything - or more of an a la carte vibe, which it’s Instagram seems to give off. I’d recommend picking one or the other, otherwise you’ll continue to disappoint. We most likely wont be back.

Hobart needs more places like this. Even though it’s a wine bar, food is executed brilliantly and you’re guaranteed to find a wine that goes with it that you’ll like! Relaxed and down to earth.

Amazing food & wine - but the service is incredibly poor and missing. Have left twice since our first experience, each time the waitress served us water and then never returned for orders (after 30 minute waits). I have heard many stories of this bad service now.

Ever changing snack-sized menu is always excellent. Wines are leaning towards the natural end but they have a good balance between classic styles as well. Two dog friendly tables outside. Vegetarian options are usually excellent.

Just fantastic. What a surprise and delight! Food and service fit for a fine dining resturant without the price tag. Lovely little spot

Excited to try out this place - once served wine, expecting waiter to come back for food order after putting away bottle. Did not come around at all for a good 40mins and continuously went back to two other parties. Felt ignored. Didn’t get attended to in the end. New parties came in and they were attended to multiple times.

Can understand it was busy but there were only 3-4 other parties.

Went to another place for dinner.

Cracking vibe, wines, food and service. We let the servers select the wines for the night and were treated to some different and super interesting wines that were out of the box.

Not sure why this place is 4.4. It is a sold 4.9-5.0. Great food and wine plus unofficial David Walsh sightings.

Good food, and great wine. The scallops with wakame jam are absolutely worth a visit - even more so if you can sop up the delicious buttery goodness left over with some bread. Very keen to return to see the menu change and develop over time.

We did not enjoy. I was very excited to visit here as they have lovely social pages and photos. I enquired about a booking and was told they don't take any which is fine. We rocked up (4 of us) and waited about 10/15min for a table which again is fine.
Finally managed to get a table outside, it only had 4 chairs, one of us stood around and waited then asked for a chair they said they could not give us a chair but offered a milk crate instead. Again - fine.
Finally got asked about what type of wines we liked. The premise of the restaurant as I read is that they offer a few to try when you explain what you like. I got offered one and I didn't like it and asked to try others. After I was told that they thought me what I asked for - mineral, not sweet. Anyway, so it is my. Taste that is bad, but I tasted sour. Got another glass in the end.

Went I side to use the bathroom.saw some spare tables inside. Asked if we could move in instead once or if one opened up. Instead they haven't to somebody else who was just walking in.

Felt unwelcomed, like we were a nuisance to them. Wines were nothing special. None from Tasmania.wated to love this place, but it was the worst we visited on our trip. Wouldn't recommend.

What a great place. Amazing selection of wines complimented by an excellent bar menu. The knowledgeable and welcoming staff (hi Cassie!) guided my wife and I through a wide and constantly changing range of by-the-glass natural wines. A new generation of wine lovers bringing a fresh and accessible approach to enjoying wine.

Disgusting, ageist place. We were visiting from Victoria and our concierge recommended this establishment. Yes, we’re close to 50. Have never, ever felt so unwelcome in any premises. Still scarred. Doubt you’ll be there the next time we are. Truth time.

Visited on a recent trip to Hobart on a Sydney wine seller’s recommendation and was so impressed. The wine was lovely and the person serving us (maybe the owner?) was so helpful. We weren’t expecting to be able to eat as there was nothing vegan on the menu, but he was happy to just come up with some dishes and it was some of the best, most interesting food I’ve eaten at a restaurant in a long time, and we live in the vegan hub of inner west Sydney!
