Review from Amanda F.
2/22/2012
While I always enjoy drinking with friends on a Saturday night, I no longer pretend that I am a young, college aged girl. I'm not sure my body could handle the amount of shots and drinks my 22 year old personality rocked in my college prime. Thus why now it's nice to find a place that still offers the equal drinking consumption pleasure at a more age appropriate scene. 750ml was the most adorable wine bar I've been to in a while. The laid-back atmosphere was very cozy and I enjoyed the small group we had but also could have seen myself on a date here as well. The staff was exceptional and made the experience even more meaningful. Not a wine drinker? No problem, there seemed to be diverse menu of beer as well. While small, it shouldn't be overlooked as a destination for wine, friends, and good times.
Went on a Saturday night with some friends; we did have a reservation which I highly recommend as the restaurant is small. Due to size, large groups (+6 ) would probably not be as comfortable. Had a friend who had connections with the owners and we got the best seats in the house (a table with couch like seats near the window). Score one for the night!
We decided to meet for drinks; so this review only contains a wine drinking experience. The wine selection was great and very diverse. They pack a decent wine selection into this small place. Not only can you choose wine by the glass or bottle listed on the menu, but peruse a little around the shop and they'll open up any wine of your choice. I had a Malbec (wine by the glass) and Pinot Noir (from one of my favorite wineries in OR). Best part? The Pinot Noir was able to be corked up and I got to take it home in a doggy bag to enjoy more at home. Score two for the night!Listed in: My Yelp 100 Challenge: 2012!

I really do not enjoy leaving this review. I used to love this place and then they changed the furniture to plastic chairs and benches as hard has a rock. A first class wine selection with great service and furniture like something your would find at Wal-Mart. Reminds me of wearing a Tux with tennis shoes. It is so cold and unappealing we will look for a new place.

Close to West Side Bakery in Pilgrim Square. Independently owned, local wine bar. Great selection of wines that you can buy per the bottle to take home or drink at the table. They offer flights of wines to test out and 1/2 price corkage days. Free W-Fi access -- the place is full of patrons checking iPhones.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Trendy decor that is comfy, like an overstuffed club chair. They often feature owners of wineries, who will sign a bottle of their wine. Great local business. -

A friend invited me to 750ml when I was visiting. It was pitched to me just as a wine bar, but the business is somewhat more nuanced than that.
The concept is a wine store where the patrons can consume their purchases immediately if they so choose. That means that wine bottles are essentially retail price, and the house charges a $10 corkage fee per table per night. So you and your friends can pay $10 and drink as many bottles at retail price as you so choose.
The price of wine bottles ranges from about $6 to $150 that I could see. There may be more expensive selections scattered throughout the store, but I didn't look that hard. The shelves have a good variety of wines arranged in more-or-less intuitive categories, by varietal and DOC. Cheaper wines are on the lower shelves, pricey ones at the top. There seemed to me to be a bit of a gap between the really cheap and the moderately expensive. The wine selections between about $12 and $20/bottle were somewhat lean.
In addition to swilling wine by the bottle, the store offers tasting flights for a very good price ($7.50 the night I was there), and various kinds of snacks are available through 750's own kitchen, and Vaccaro's, which provides pizzas right through the back entrance.
In terms of atmosphere, 750 is great. Low lighting, lots of dark wood offset by plaster-white walls, tasteful decorations and an interesting layout.
One issue we had was that the service was a little bit slow. The owners basically run the place and even on busy nights, they only have one other server working the room. If our server got caught up talking to someone in the far corner, we'd have to fetch her, or try to snag one of the owners as they waltzed by.
Last thing: The bathroom wasn't heated. Be prepared for a refreshing zing if you have to sit down. -

750ml is a welcome addition to the area!
With hot food catered by Vaccaro's, great appetizers and desserts to compliment the generous selection of wine, 750ml boasts all the makings of a great evening out with my wife and a few close friends.
I've also enjoyed less formal business meetings here and the atmosphere is fantastic. It's private enough due to it's thoughtful layout and no one packed in, and the music collection - frequently featuring the likes of Dave Matthews Band - is played at an adequate volume to contain conversation.
The service is also above average. The owner has made several spot-on recommendations for us and has remembered our tastes from our initial visit. -

A nice cozy place to have a glass of wine after work or before going to dinner. Lots of variety and friendly service. Really like the relaxed and laid-back atmosphere.

Love this place. Great atmosphere, great seating, phenomenal service.
I love their pinot noir tastings, I always find something new that I like. And the food is quite divine. It's not made on site, but the cheese platters and salads are worth sticking around for. -

This is a great spot to meet some girlfriends and share some conversation.. and wine, dur. You can get beer, too!
Choose a retail bottle from their store and have it corked, or order by the glass. I think they have tasting events too, but I haven't participated in one of those.
The food is pretty good, if a little pricey. The waitress explained that the food is ordered from another restaurant and brought in-- so that must be the reason for the upcharge.
On my last visit, I ordered the caprese salad. It was fantastic, and served very prettily. I don't usually order capreses since I make them at home all the time.
Enough about the food though, this isn't the point of the place. The wine is good, lots of different price ranges. There's a variety of conversation areas to sit... tables, couches, chairs.
I love this plaza, too! West Side Bakery, yum!
If you live in Akron, have friends, and like wine... go here! -

My husband and I first came here about a year ago, and pop in every now and then (although I don't know why we don't go more often). It's very cozy and chill. It might be one of the only places where you don't have to shout over loud music and talking.
The only thing that I would like to see an improvement on is possibly adding a little more snacky-things. If I have food, I'm more likely to keep drinking wine =) -

Great service, great food and the wine selection is amazing. I truly did not expect such an experience in Akron/Canton. The patrons were also terrific. Reasonable prices...
