Uptown Network

Overall: I didn't expect to like this app. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how simple this app was to use to help select wines at a recent dinner at Naples Tomato. There are several different ways to pick the wine you want, but I liked the option of pairing wines with food. The application walks you through the process, and you can start over or refine your search if you want to narrow down your options. The Positives: This is a great example of an app that improves an existing process -- ordering wine. In typical situations, I find myself asking waiters for recommendations - and rarely find those recommendations anything more than a guess. This app was great and I expect lots of restaurants to use something like this. The Negative(s): I wish the app had a way for me to store my wine selections for future reference. Would also like it to be for my phone as well, so I could look before going to the restaurant...

My wife and I went to Shula's Steakhouse for our 5th anniversary. When we sat down, the server greeted us with an iPad that had this app on it! We fell in love with this iPad menu almost immediately! It was so easy to use and really easy to navigate. For someone who doesn't know a lot about wines, this was a dream come true. Having all the information in front of me in a tangible and exciting manner really takes the intimidation factor out of choosing a wine. Beyond that, there were food, cocktail, and dessert options as well! All with great descriptions and pictures! Say goodbye to having to guess what you order is going to look like! What I loved the most is that it was an upscale iPad menu and not a distracting eye sore on the table. I have been places that have those menu things on the table where you can play games and pay, and I am not a fan of them. This menu does not take away from the dining experience at all. The server is still there and attentive. Where as I feel like the table top option with games can almost replace the server, this menu is like a tool for the server to be even better! We loved it and I can not wait to see more of these pop up everywhere!!! Ps: the app that you can download in the App Store is amazing as well. It is just like the menu you see in the restaurant! 5 Star 100%

This app is wonderful! It makes choosing wine so much more fun and interesting. I love that you can sort by varietal and vintage to find the perfect wine to go with dinner. We have found the descriptions to be spot on and it's nice to read a little more information than the server may have for any particular wine. I also love being able to email the tasting notes for any given wine so that I remember to enjoy it again next time. This app is also much easier to read than a traditional wine list. Great job!

Totally love this app. SO easy to navigate. You don't have to be a wine geek anymore to feel empowered in a restaurant! I can simply select the SEARCH BY FOOD PAIRINGS option, and the app quickly delivers a list of wines to match any menu item I choose! It's by far the most user-friendly app on my iPad. I frequent Naples Tomato quite often, and I will be using the Personal Sommelier app each and every time I go. It totally enhances the dining experience. BRAVO!

Simple, yet profound - and easy to use. The details that were thought about to orchestrate this app go above and beyond my expectations. Love the ability to switch restaurants. It made a lasting impression on my dining experience. Thank you!!! Oh, and it's available on the App Store - DOWNLOAD FREE - and check it out …... you will be pleasantly surprised, as was I.
