I circled the store 3 times and I felt completely overlooked by the staff.One staff member aiding a couple, reached for a bottle so close that her hand + bottle was almost in my face, without acknowledging me or saying 'excuse me.' I chose to leave after never being acknowledged and visit Melody, where they have a superior selection and the girl there was welcoming and helpful.

Stopped by on the way to a friend’s and the woman who helped me was so knowledgeable and passionate. I could tell they also really cared about the wine that they stocked and pour intentional into good, caring and interesting winemakers.

Such a good neighborhood wine shop! My only wish is that they made it more evident on their Yelp page, social, or website that they're only open for curbside and that you need to call ahead (D'oh! Should've checked out Tobi K's review ahead of time). I was given a gift card for my birthday and headed here on a Friday afternoon only to find that they're not open for shopping right now. The upside? I gave them a call and whoever was managing the shop was totally helpful, gave me a great recommendation, and I was able to pay over the phone for a contactless pickup. I can absolutely give five stars to that!I'm exploring natural wines lately and asked about a two popular-ish brands over the phone. They don't carry either, but the staff member went through a few similar wines while also highlighting the winemaker, where the wine is made, and the price point. How helpful is that? I'd definitely take a virtual tasting class or something like that if this shop were to offer it. Parking was easy on Bellevue and (especially when the world isn't struck down by a pandemic), this is a darling block with a great place to get your haircut (The Harbor) and a bagel shop (haven't been yet, but this was a nice reminder).

Amazing selection with very knowledgeable staff. I went in looking for a le costé bianco skin contact, which they had. Riley helped me pick out a new orange for me to expand my palette. She's a walking book filled to the brim about all the particulars of each and every producer they have in the store. Half the experience was listening to her talk fondly about each inquiry. Thanks Riley

Psychic is the secret headquarters of the natural wine movement in Los Angeles. Housed in an urban red brick building in the middle of a funky cluster of Silverlake bungalows, the lowkey shop features the most colorful, playful bottles in the city. If you want to feel cool, like you have a pulse on the LA bohemian beat, pull off the 101 freeway at Benton way and look for the wine glass logo with an all-seeing eye. The front window is plastered with leftist flyers calling for defunding the police and echoing rallying cries of Bernie campaign past. Sunshine streams through the massive front window dousing the natural wine in natural light. If you're still wondering what the heck makes the wine natural, ask the employees. Knowledgable and down to earth, they'll describe the tangy flavors and mouth feels created by the fermenting process in a relatable way to guide you exactly where you want to go on your vino journey. Dozens of bottles call out to you from the shelves with artsy labels giving the whole place a gallery vibe. The fridge is stocked with reds, white, pinks, and oranges that come in flat or bubbly options. There is a wide selection of prices starting in the low 20s to fit your budget. If that feels higher than the $3 Trader Joe's stuff you usually gulp, treat yourself to a whole new drinking experience.

A gorgeous wine shop! The staff is always willing to make a recommendation and their stock cycles frequently. Also worth checking out their olive oil selection!!

I was little bit concerned if the people there could be psychotic. But THEY ARE NORMAL. No fortune telling, no Tarot cards.

Stopped by for a bottle of wine on the way to the Hollywood Bowl and was warmly welcomed on the way in. They have a great, large selection of natural wines to choose from. I am not wine savvy so we asked for help choosing a white wine. The woman helping was knowledgeable and personable and made the process easy and quick. We chose from one of their chilled wine selections and it was great. I'll have to come back and try more!

Staff is really knowledgeable. Sometimes the vibes are a little sterile though. Still a great place to pickup a few bottles of wine.
