Le Plonc

Small wine bar with appetizers and some entrees. We only had wine so I can't speak for the food, but the service was excellent if not too quick. The atmosphere is decent. The $7 glasses of wine are just ok. The bottles from this list are $35 so at this price point you can't expect to have amazing wine. Good variety though there's many Italian wines. We thought the red and Brut were decent. What's strange is that on the next page of the menu it jumps to $70 per bottle. Then it continues to high prices but there's no higher end wine glass options. I'm not sure how they expect people to pay that much for a bottle when their glasses are inexpensive and nothing to shout about. Overall I think the menu is flawed but if you want a cheap glass of wine, snacks, and good conversation then stop by with a friend. I probably wouldn't eat here for dinner.

Great wine bar, select wines and food options available, which is great, because you know that everything they offer has been purposefully thought of and introduced to their menu. We had the oysters with a glass of Lambrusco and beer. When I accidentally (drunkenly) dropped my beer they were kind enough to replace it even though I was the clumsy one. Friendly staff and great ambiance, we look forward to making this one of our go-tos.

Downtown Mountain View needed a place like this. Lounge environment, reasonable wine prices, indoor/outdoor seating - where I can feel like a classy grown up catching up with a friend. Not sitting at a stuffy bar, not feeling rushed or pressured to finish my drink or meal. Food is great! I was surprised by how good the first time I ate there. I normally poo-poo avocado toast - but their avocado toast with burrata - yum yum! And recently enjoyed $2 oyster happy hour - always a win. Instagram worthy food presentations! Only reason to not get five stars is that on my most recent visit - I thought the mid-day service was lacking. We weren’t greeted when we entered, even though the hostess saw us. The hostess and the man working the kitchen seemed more interested in flirting with each other than providing us a table and menus, and in the type of environment - wine bar, lounge atmosphere, with the type of food they offer, I expect the service to be a bit more on top of it. However, when I’ve been served by the manager (when they first opened) - he was super welcoming and helpful.
