The Patio Wine Garden
Featured In
Bank Atcharawan knows his wine. The former lead sommelier at Lotus of Siam now curates a similarly impressive list at his own restaurant, Lamaii (one of our favorite spots for date night in Vegas), and digs even deeper into the world of fermented grapes at another venture, Patio Wine Garden. Formerly a dessert concept, the bar and lounge mixes Asian small plates, cheese, and charcuterie with an eclectic but affordable wine selection. Natural wines and serious cult favorites are specialties, served in a loose, casual environment that's almost hidden inside a routine strip mall. Most of the available wines are lined up behind the main bar with a staff member always ready to recommend a bottle to pair well with the hamachi ceviche or grilled pork shoulder bo ssam. Despite the name, Patio Wine Garden doesn't actually have any outdoor seating, but the interior is warm and cozy with dim lighting, wood decor, and faux greenery.
