    Randomly strolled by and the vibes were immaculate that we had to stop back by after dinner for a night cap. Vinyl store with wine/cocktails and light bites. Happy hour 3-6.

    Records for sale
    Evangelene G.

    We were trying to find something to do during the holiday break. I found this one and well, it's a record store-radio station-restaurant and bar! That checked all the boxes. We got there five minutes before opening which kind of startled the staff but we were allowed to browse the records. As soon as the bar/restaurant was open, I indulged in their happy hour menu. I will admit I liked the poblano tacos. It packs heat, but that's why there's cocktails. The carnitas taco was just as good. I would like to try other menu items on our next visit. By the time we left, the place was filling up. If we were staying overnight, I would definitely check it out for fun and games.

    Walked by this place while strolling one evening and heard the music. It was so fun to vibe to the live music while browsing vinyls. The atmosphere was fun and we enjoyed their non-alcoholic cider.

    Super cute wine bar with delicious white wines and charcuterie board. The records are so fun to look at and the service was fast and great!

    Basically.......record shop meets bar or vice versa. To be honest, I think I was more impressed with the bar than the record selection. Most of the records in the bins are new with some used ones sprinkled in. As someone who frequents record stores, I found the prices here to be higher than usual. The selection was just OK, but they did have a few collectibles posted on the wall. On the other hand, the bar itself is well appointed, open, well designed with a wide selection of alcohol to choose from. There is a small stage for a performer, and there's art for sale in the form of record art on the wall. It's definitely a nice place to grab a drink, but I came here looking for some records and left disappointed. It reminds me of someone trying to add their hobby to their business. Still worth a visit though, as the photos/video below attest.

    Vinyl side

    decided to stop by here to check it out. the vibe of the location is nice, has a gothy punk retro yet sophisticated theme. sorry if i didn't describe it well. the bar is beautiful, the record side is nicely in the open. art on the wall is awesome. i know vinyl's are the NEW old thing to have but prices were a bit up there. Don't mean to be rube but just peel off the old price tags..sorry homie. But don't let this comment stop you from checking it out, there is street parking as well as a parking lot in front. I wanted that Carly Simon vinyl... im a homie that likes them old rolas.

    Margaritas
    Cherylyn A.

    Came in a Saturday night to celebrate a birthday. Enjoyed some margaritas and a DJ spinning some jams. We enjoyed ourselves and appreciated the table seating they had available for those who wanted to sit down and chill. If you're ever looking for some vinyl to purchase while sipping on some drinks this is a cool spot in Napa!

    My wife, cousins and I went here Sunday night and they had a DJ playing music and a TV playing in the background playing some scenes from Mardi Gras then after we order drinks they decided to put on mammy on YouTube for some reason. Our drink was watered down and we never got our nuts and olives we ordered. Only black people in there maybe we came on the wrong night.

With a wasabi and fennel infused vodka, it was too unique not to be curious about. Upon arriving and looking over the menu, SEVERAL cocktails stood out to me as intriguing to try. I started with the Wabi Sabi which was as interesting as it sounded. While I didn't pick up on fennel, you do pick up on the wasabi, but in the most subtle of ways. Think maybe lime/ginger sparkling water with just a hint of spice. Refreshing and different for sure. I also tried the Mucha Lucha w/ cilantro infused Siete Leguas Blanco, chorizo infused mezcal and cubes made of hot sauce that make the drink have a bit more of a kick as you allow them to melt. I did the HH chips and guac which was also accompanied with a tasty Chipotle sauce. Damn good actually. It'd be excellent served in a variety of ways. The deviled eggs aren't going to blow your mind, but I like that you get 4 different ones- and simply because I love eggs, I'd order them again. (They just wouldn't be a dish that brings me back). The bartender was great- helpful and attentive, even as more people began to filter in for an early afternoon. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Napa to check out some other menu options.

So of course, after our spirit tasting at Napa Valley, we walked a short distance to the ArBARetum. We grabbed a table outside and the two gentlemen in our group got the complimentary cocktails. We also ordered the Pastrami Nachos, which was a big hit. We had a short but enjoyable visit here but didn't want to be late for our dinner reservation, right next door at Scala! Of course, we'll return for more great cocktails and friendly service!

We all had such a good time that we returned again on Sunday with more friends and had a blast! Its nice to see that's there is a place for the locals to go and display there talents.

We popped in and found JV behind the bar, spinning great music ahead of an event they were hosting. He made some drink suggestions and they were 100/10! I got the Manhattan and Old Fashioned while my wife got the white gummy (wish we got a picture of them but the quality was perfect). The energy was instantly welcoming and refreshingly unpretentious. Great tunes, great atmosphere, and a bartender who clearly knows how to make great drinks. We asked what music they normally play and they responded it depends. At their busy times it's mostly hip hop and R&B, other times the bartender's will throw some music on. I would suggest stopping in to have a great cocktail and see what they're playing. This was a fun, unexpected stop that made our night even better. Shout out to JV for the fun experience! I didn't catch the other staff members names but they were funny and welcoming as well. Here is a picture of JV in a stitch beanie his Manager brought him.

Upon entry and seeing people dressed very relaxed, my assumption was curved. The inside was relatively small, we sat at small table in the back near the "kitchen" food pick-up area is the best way to describe it. Our waiter was okay, provided us the nightly specials and acknowledged our Anniversary. Nothing beyond the standard greeting. Drinks: very basic in my opinion; subjective I get it. Me and my guests were not wow'd. We had to ask for additional supplements for the Lavender Lemon Drop and Georgia Peach or something Peach with bourbon, peach puree, etc. Appetizers: PrimeRib Sliders, Fried Coconut Prawns and Lobster Bisque. Again taste is subjective, being from the south, flavors and richness is a MUST. I can't say we got that. Our guest throughly enjoyed the prawns and said the sauce was GREAT. I'm use to a VERY rich, cozy Lobster bisque and this missed the mark, and there was barely any lobster. Entrees: 8 oz Filet Mignon, Prime Rib, Crab enchiladas and Scallops. Filet was requested as medium, came out almost done, no pink in sight. While my guest was disappointed, they didn't feel like the battle of waiting for it to be corrected, disappointing. Prime Rib, was okay. The guest barely finished it. Pan Roasted Maine Scallops, were okay, cooked fine. Meal ended once a gnat landed on the crisp crackers. Crab Enchiladas: A very unique dish. Plentiful for sure; taste basic. Essentially a taco with all the fixings with crab sprinkled in minus a shell. No dessert for us; however, we were offered a cupcake with a candle for our anniversary. While this review is my/our experience, the restaurant missed the mark with this basic, dry store bought cupcake. I refuse to believe this was made in house. Perhaps one of the menu dessert options would have been better. We'll never know. My expectations were not met. Hope yours is.
