The 3rd Corner Wine Shop & Bistro

The food was good but it took more than two and a half hours to get our meal and that was without dessert. I heard someone mutter that they had been at wedding receptions that were shorter. I really prefer the Ocean Beach restaurant.

Fellow New Yorkers, heck, fellow "Any City East Of Encinitas" -- if it's late at night, and you're starving and in need of some REALLY GOOD FOOD that doesn't completely bust your wallet, AND serves After 10PM, then 3rd Corner is The Place. The food is off the charts good. Seriously. The wine selection is superb. Heck, we joined the Wine Club so we could learn (and drink) about all the great wine...from all around the world. The wait staff is superb, especially KYLE, one of the leads of The Resinators (local rock/funk/reggae band), and parking is generally pain free (esp. late). Trust THE DAVE & TAMMY TOUR PODCAST, this place is legit (despite the somewhat dated, read: tired, decor).

Great selection of reasonably priced wine. Pick one at retail and add just $5 corkage to enjoy with dinner. Good selection of mains, well prepared at prices I can live with.

Incredible wine selection with great prices. Helpful staff and sommelier to choose the perfect wine for you. The set up is pretty unique too. It's like when you go to a restaurant and they let you pick your own fish from the tank. Except in this case, it's wine instead of fish. Only a $5 corkage fee too. The food was decadently seasoned and the portions were quite hearty. I had the ciopinno and they did NOT skimp on the seafood. I can eat a thing or two, and I was very satisfied by the time I got to the bottom of the bowl.

We haven't been here in about 4 months, it has gone better since we were gone.
We are late eaters, so we appreciate restaurants that are open late.
The food was awesome, get the chicken pate, it is amazing.
And the cheese and aged meat plate was yummy.
All the salads are good, and we had the super tender short rib.
Have fun with Luke while you are there, and enjoy a nice late meal.
