It was kind of slow and quiet, probably because it was midweek.... Allowed our party of 8 to communicate at a normal volume. Hunter was our server tonight... He was very friendly, polite and very thorough on explaining the menu to us. We had some fantastic wine and cocktails. The Bees Knees was amazing and highly recommended... fruity and floral notes. We ordered several appetizers... a cheese tray, pickled beets, Brussel sprouts, beet hummus and onion dip. The sprouts were served with a blue cheese aioli dip and I am not one for blue cheese, but I loved the dip. My favorite were the pickled beets with cheese... They looked like red fries with hair when they arrived at the table. The night ended with a complimentary round of limoncello shots for the group... Absolutely delicious!!! One of the best!! Overall, great experience all the way around... will definitely be back!!

Although I will eternally miss Nabeel's (:(), Freddy's is a welcome addition for some casual-chic appetizer realness. I had an espresso martini to begin the night, followed by the "soup of the moment." Soup was ok, but I tasted my neighbor's kale caesar salads and they were great. I would come back just to get that salad. Yummy! My friends and I had a large group, but our server, Zoie, was fantastic! She even didn't mind splitting up the checks for us, which was awesome. We ordered several bottles of prosecco and shut down the place on New Years Eve. Oops.

Great place to spend a weekend afternoon. Waiting on the fun to begin with food and wine samples…read more Update: Despite the nice venue, gotta say there were some glitches that need to be worked out and shared. The event was advertised online with pre purchased tickets to start at 3. We showed up at 3 and were told that it actually started at 4. No problem, we had a drink inside and enjoyed the vibe. When we tried to cash out, it was a little difficult. There were extra people helping but they ignored me and my friend and walked away after clearing the men at the bar. When the bartender cashed us out, she charged us for the event that we'd purchase tickets for online and that was an ordeal trying to get a credit. As of the morning after, my bank account has a charge and no credit. All in all, I have 4 transactions (all charges) from them when there should be 2. The apps were a nice touch to the event and people seemed to be having fun.

We planned an afternoon here with the girls to celebrate a birthday. We sat outside. Although it was hot, the area is shaded and they had a couple of fans out. They also have a small, indoor air conditioned space with a small art gallery if you don't want to do the heat. The string lights added to the ambiance. Several of us had the wine flight (you choose 3). We also ordered a charcuterie board, olives, cornichons (pickles) and pimento cheese. Everything tasted amazing!!! You have to walk up to the bar to order. The servers were very helpful with making the wine selections. They also came to the table to clear glasses and to assist with any questions. Oh, let me not forget the honey! It was spectacular drizzled on the crackers and cheeses. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

To our surprise from 3:00-5:00pm on Saturdays they offer a pre-selected wine flights & a small plate for $20. We got to try wines from Spain/Portugal! I will definitely be visiting again!!

My favs of the night were The Initiation' Syrah and Alma de Cattleya Sauvignon Blanc.

They have a well-stocked bar and a selection of seasonal cocktails. They are however limited in their craft beer selection. They only have 5 taps and unfortunately the beer selection is not all craft. There is a nice seating area with plush comfy chairs around a fireplace. Two large screen TVs are mounted on each side of the fireplace make this an excellent spot for viewing sporting events. In some corners you can even find an intimate spot.
