A big variety of food. The specials are interesting. I chose the cheese ravioli special with wild mushrooms. Friend had marinara pasta with sausage. We had a starter the cheese burrata and the prosciutto on the side. The cheese was soooooo good. Vanessa went out of her way to make us happy. We had to send the pasta back as it was too spicy for my friend. They remade it and it was perfect for her. I had a blanc de blanc champagne but there was no fizz and the waitress happily got me a different sparkling. I loved the ravioli. Great ambiance. Highly recommend.

Overall rating would be a 4. The Burrata Cheese & Prosciutto…read moreapp was a definite 5 as it was outstanding! The Chicken Picatta was also a 5, very tender with great flavors. The Chicken Shrimp & Sausage Carbonara was a 4 as the sauce was very thin for a carbonara. The Fettuccine Alfredo had great flavor but the sauce was breaking so it gets a 4. The Tiramisu was fantastic, so a definite 5. The wine selection was impressive and the wines we selected were great so wines got a 5. The bartender was not at all friendly or engaging, made no attempt to offer wine selections or explain anything about the wines, it was more a 'what do you want' sort of thing, so unfortunately she gets a 2. Our server, Rachel, was friendly but unfortunately just not very good. Forgot to bring one of the side dishes we ordered, never returned to the table to check on our meals or to see if we need anything else, so I would give her a 3. Valentinos is a restaurant we would certainly do back to in hopes that the service rises to the level of the food and wine.

I was not a big fan of the rest of the menu, so I don't know if I would come back here. Food is a bit on the salty side. Our visit was in the evening (Sep/ early Oct), and there was a waft here and there of a stench like sewage? I am not sure why the bar seating had this odor when the bathrooms were on the other side. Was a bit unappetizing but we tried to ignore it. Service was fast when it came to our ordering and drinks came out quickly. Food was on the slow side. See my pics. The seafood chowder special soup was good. The cheese curds were greasy and salty but not bad. My bro had the pickle burger special and he enjoyed it.

I was really excited to check this place out after seeing their cocktail menu online, and in some…read moreways it definitely lived up to the hype. The drinks were excellent--well-balanced, creative, and clearly made with skill. There was also a live musician performing during my visit who was amazing and added a great atmosphere and really elevated the overall vibe. Service, however, was a mixed experience. One of the bartenders (a newer female bartender) was very friendly, attentive, and showed a lot of potential--she made a great impression despite seeming a bit new. Unfortunately, the other bartender completely brought the experience down. He came across as rude, disengaged, and honestly like he didn't want to be there at all. I understand it was a busy night, but there was very little sense of urgency from him, and wait times felt longer than they should have been--even factoring in the crowd. That said, I do understand everyone can have an off night, and given how good the drinks and atmosphere were (plus the positive reviews I've seen elsewhere), I'd likely be willing to give it another shot. Overall, great cocktails and ambiance, but inconsistent service keeps it from being a top-tier experience--for now. I will be happy to update following a repeat visit.

Both drinks are fantastic, depending on your mood. They offer some snacks for purchase, but one of the best parts is that you're welcome to bring your own food, making it a great place to hang out without feeling limited. It's the perfect place to meet up with friends, catch a live performance, enjoy trivia night, or check out one of their many other events. Their website has an updated list of what's coming up, which makes planning easy. Adding to the ambience, you'll find a few tables that are actually chalk board tables so you can draw or play games on the chalkboard tables if you want. It's so fun! The staff has always been kind, welcoming, and great at crafting drinks. Take Flight Spirits is definitely one of my favorite local spots!

First off, the ladies who work there (shout out to Lily and Alicia!!) were so friendly and so helpful when they took the time to go over the menu with us. The food here..... omg. Coming from Chicago we have high expectations for food, and this place EXCEEDED them. Caviar on the menu in a small town dive bar? Yes please! Everything we had was just so good... that we had to come back for a second time before we left. I tried to order the bread/cheese/jam plate for a second time, but seemed like everyone else loved it too as they were out! The burgers, the oysters, the steak, even the french toast...were also outstanding. From the outside it looks like you're going to walk into a real simple, small town dive bar. But inside has SO much more to be explored. Highly recommend anyone that's in the area to stop in here, you will not regret it.
