JR The Wine Experience

Restaurant Bar

😠 these people have scammed me- I was “invited to a private dinner” and wasn’t told anything about the financials, and I was under the impression based on what employee told me that this was a free dinner for the loyal costumers of the place. I was later shocked that I have to pay for the entire dinne... People often mention wine, wines, experience, Jordanian, Jordan, good, service, great, amazing, tasting,

    these people have scammed me- I was “invited to a private dinner” and wasn’t told anything about the financials, and I was under the impression based on what employee told me that this was a free dinner for the loyal costumers of the place. I was later shocked that I have to pay for the entire dinner with no previous mention whatsoever about this. what was most disappointing was the lack of confrontation from their end on the entire situation. I’m not planning to come back here because of the rude behavior here.

    Came here to celebrate my birthday and had a fantastic time. Q took such great care of us and made our experience so memorable. We tried 5 different wines and they were all fantastic - high quality wines that are well made and complex flavors. Definitely come check out JR Wine Experience, and ask for Q when you visit!

    The greatness of an entity is measured by the caring actions of its managers and employees. Thanks Firas for your concern. Firstly I had an unfortunate experience then it was quickly handled to become a good one.

    We had wine tasting with Qusay. He was absolutely wonderful. His energy levels were through the roof and it was obvious he was very passionate about wine. When you arrive, you can ask for the tour of the premises and someone will give you a quick tour and crash course on it's history. Lovely decor, amazing service, good wine and very strong sangria!

    We came here a little early but they still allowed us to sit down. We ordered the wine tasting reserve experience and thoroughly enjoyed our server’s recommendations for both red and white wines. Our waiter originally brought us chorizo when we ordered prosciutto, and forgot our order of an additional platter, but these aren’t enough to bring this review down from five stars. I love this place!!!

    We had an amazing time at The Wine Experience. Our server Reyaj was incredibly knowledgable and friendly, and the wines themselves were delicious, really high quality. We are planning to return before the end of our trip to buy a few bottles. Thank you so much Reyaj and team!

    Great wine selection. Delicious food. I recommend going for the sommelier experience. You can select 6 wines. They’ll then guide you through the experience; giving a detailed explanation for each wine including recommended pairings.

    Absolutely best place to get introduced to Jordanian wine culture - the employees are absolutely passionate about the wine, and they are super friendly and helpful. Besides, this place also features a talented chef. We had a delicious dinner here. I would strongly suggest trying their prosecco - it is fabulous (not on the menu list, ask the waiter). All in all, 5* experience - wholeheartedly recommended for a proper dinner fare with a decent wine pairing. The place also has its own wine cellar with a decent selection of Jordan River wines available for sale.

    I was not expecting dirking alcohol in Jordan at all. And at all not a very tasty local wines from Jordan. This was a place full of surprises and a lot of great small details. As we mentioned our love for wine, we even received a wine tour, with the explanation of all the different wine sorts and the history of eine production in Jordan. Loved it. Recommended! Food/Wine: Very good Atmosphere: Very stylish place Service: Friendly, welcoming

    Good wine, good environment with excellent service. Everyone was so nice and we were even able to do some Art painting. We had wine pairing and learned about foreign grapes grown in Jordanian soil.

  • 5/5 Malecia B. 6 months ago on Google
    Great selection as far as wine flights where you can do a 3 glass or 6 glass tasting.

  • 5/5 Khaled A. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 iliad h. 4 months ago on Google
    Amazing place to try the local Jordanian wine. Also they do a wine testing experience for the JR wine. Highly recommended place.

  • 5/5 Liam P. 10 months ago on Google
    You have to stop here if you enjoy wine and want to learn about the wine culture and history in Jordan! Boasting an incredible selection of Jordanian wines from JR, we were also greeted with an introduction from the first Jordanian sommelier who was FANTASTIC and took the tasting experience to the next level. This is a true wine tasting, and ranges all the way up to rare reserve wines but can also accommodate entry level tastings as well. Can’t recommend this enough! Ask for Qussai, he is amazing.

  • 5/5 Donnelle M. 9 months ago on Google
    Fantastic wine bar in the middle of Amman. Local vineyard, albeit up in northern Jordan. Wines are served at W hotel (our hotel) and Royal Jordanian airlines. Try the flight, gives you a great experience of the difference wines they have. Hazar who served us and talked us through the wine is awesome and so lovely, knowledgeable and very proud of the wines. Must do if you love wines and want to try local good Jordanian wines. We didn’t eat there (ate earlier) but wished we had, looked and smelt amazing!

  • 5/5 Omar A. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing place! Thanks to Firas for the free “tour” at JR. This is a must visit while in Jordan.

  • 4/5 Justin S. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good spot! By far the most impressed I have been by Jordanian wine. I had it at few other places but this was much better. The service was first rate and I will be coming back.

  • 5/5 Jason T. 2 years ago on Google
    Felt like a different city... this was our first venture to the business district, and it was a complete shock - however the bar felt authentic and the food we had was fantastic. Must try the bruschetta medley, wish i could go back. Cured the disappointment of not having any local cheeses available... Bottle of Barbara was tasty to partner it in a great atmosphere. Only criticism like a lot of wine bars, is most people want to do tastings / try a few wines - however you are forfeiting too much value by doing so. Also, the service becomes almost non-existent if you don't go with the tasting (experience)

  • 5/5 Cyrus A. 2 years ago on Google
    Jordan wine is an awesome discovery as a frenchman. You’ll love it too. My favorite bottle is the Shiraz or Syrah as we say in france. This country has a lot to offer and wines are no exception

  • 5/5 Ibrahim O. 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly Staff, good Jordanian wines. Great platters ro go with the wine.

  • 5/5 Taylor H. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything about this restaurant is so great. The steak was SO good, best one I have had in a very long time. Issa the chef is very talented. The wine selection is also amazing and the service is excellent. 10/10 love this place

  • 5/5 MB C. 2 years ago on Google
    We had one of the best dinners in Jordan at JR. Chef Issa made the most AMAZING steak I've ever had - and I live in steak country in the US! The food was fresh, had generous portions, and was all around incredible. The wine was equally as tasty. We'd definitely go back if given the opportunity!

  • 4/5 Hala Q. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent food. Good wine. Wish they'd explain more about the wine, the differences etc... felt like we were just served 3 different wines

  • 5/5 Vera S. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Feron E. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the only spot in Jordan where you will find a tremendous selection of local wine. The food is also pretty good! Try their international cheese platter!
