ABOUT

THE TELL ME BAR is a natural wine bar located in the Lower Garden District, walking distance from The Superdome and WWII Museum.  We have an intimate, relaxed atmosphere with a tropical mid-century Italian design theme and a large outdoor patio. We have an extensive, meticulously curated wine list and snack plates of cheese, charcuterie, conservas & caviar.

You’ll find us around an unassuming bend under the Cresent City Connection; if you think you've made a wrong turn keep going and you'll find our hidden oasis!

Uznea Bauer

Uznea’s wine mentor at Bacchanal used to say ‘wine chooses you’; as if the path was chosen for one by the fates. Indeed it’s mysterious, sensual law has kept her an intrigued devotee ever since… first as the wine director there, subsequently in winemaking internships in France & Oregon, and eventually as the co-host of various experimental residencies & wine pop-ups around New Orleans. Alongside Cory & Tyler she evolved those times into what is now THE TELL ME BAR.

Cory Cartwright

Cory once drank a bottle of wine that changed his life so much that he left his job and started a wine importing company. He’s still chasing that feeling and THE TELL ME BAR is the current part of that journey.

Tyler Robinson

Tyler is a New Orleans fixture with a passion for food, wine, and all the beauty of the world.
