I wish I could give this place five stars but the end of the night has me frustrated which is why…read moreit's four. I'll start with the positive. The food is fantastic. Steak bites, truffle fries, brownie skillet... I want to come back just to try more food alone. This was insane and the pricing was good, the value was good, and I even ordered truffle fries to go because I loved it so much! What is super fun is that they now have wine tastings on Tuesdays and it is a great deal. $12 for four wines. Someone tells you about each wine and it's a great way to sample a bunch of wines, both local and not. I was super excited about that! I will again, come back to do that! Lots of positives there. And our server was very sweet. She was checking in and making sure we were doing well. I wish I knew her name but sadly I don't. But she was so kind and had a great personality. And everything came out fast! The vibes are also good. I love the outdoor seating/patio options for a hot summer night. And it was very lush. It's funny because I had never heard of this place before but it is in a fantastic area near Night Ramen and Provision Bakery (two amazing spots). Breakfast at Provision, apps and drinks at My Cellar Wine Bar, and maybe a dinner at Night Ramen. Haha! Just kidding, but again, great spot. Here's where I have issues. I worked in the restaurant industry for six years. I understand staying over close and even coming in close to close is a no no (at least for me). But we arrived at 7:30 pm and stayed until 9:45 pm. One of my best friends is getting married so she wanted to show us her dress and share her excitement. At 9 pm (note they close at 10 pm), they turned on the lights, began sweeping, closed the kitchen, and even at one point blasted music. We asked the waitress when they closed the wine bar. 10 pm. But what frustrated me the most is that the manager (I assume) came over and was acting extremely condescending. "I know you girls are having such a good time!!" And was trying to usher us out. Girl. You don't close until 10 pm. It's 9:45. If you didn't want us to stay, then maybe change the hours. I don't care if we are the only ones there. It was extremely rude and the way she said it felt, as I said, condescending. Like we were young and dumb or something. As a diner, I expect great service. Which we got for the most part. But to kick us out before it closes is unprofessional and frustrating. Of course we left, but god forbid a girl get excited about her wedding and wants to share all about it. This left a sour taste in my mouth and again, if you wanted to close early, maybe don't tell patrons the actual time you close: 10 pm. We bought a lot and a bottle of wine. Let us finish our glasses and I promise we will leave before close. I would still come back, but maybe I'll go to Vine and Wheel or another wine bar first.

Popped in for the first time, and I'm kicking myself that I didn't know this spot was here before…read morenow. The staff was so well informed about wine selections and the libations were amazing! I sat next a wall/door that would open during nice weather, and as we were leaving there were groups of people playing mahjong! How cool! I hope to come back before they move their location downtown.

I have not been here many times, but it always holds a warm place in my heart for its unique…read moreposition, hidden away among OCC's shoppes, a lesser-known gem for those lucky enough to discover its charm. The first time I was there was many years ago, when the warm fireplace with couches was a centerpiece and memorable. It's upstairs, off the street, windows looking out. I finally made it back with a friend, and we had a great time; however, as John C. said in his comments, I can relate to the (still current) problems they seem to be facing with only one employee available, and no one to make the cheese fondue we were looking forward to. We settled for a cheese and hummus & olive plates, which were good, just not what we wanted. I do not recall the fireplace going. There were a couple of other parties seated at tables, and it seemed as though our server was a bit overwhelmed. He did know about the wine, which we appreciated. I do not wish to write off this special place and am hopeful they will make improvements based on reviews like this one.

Now unfortunately I don't have a ton to say. My friend and I stopped in to grab a glass of wine…read morebefore a play. We got there right when they opened so we had the place to ourselves. It was pretty magical since it was absolutely adorable in there. There were two staff members who were so cool. One (of course I don't remember the name because I'm the WORST with names) was so friendly and talked to us for a while. They made some recommendations, chatted for a little, and really made out short time there really lovely. 100% will be back for dessert and a glass of wine.

So I first want to be clear that when we went, we had a coupon that gave us one free appetizer or a…read morefree glass of house wine per person during happy hour. So we did go to use that (although or waitress didn't read it I don't think because she only gave us one free glass of wine when it said per person). But that's not a problem! We were grateful nonetheless! So yes, we did go to happy hour. This board was really nice, but they never said what each item on the board was. So I have no clue what the meats and cheeses are. For a place that says they are known for boards, you'd think they'd share what is on our board. I think the value is alright for what you get! But I would say that there are other places around (Cork and Cask) that have a better value for your buck! This is still a gorgeous presentation and it's a good chill vibe at this spot. The wine was good. But I don't know if I'd come back unless I had another coupon I fear.... And the service was not great even though the place wasn't super packed. Sad because I hoped I would've liked this place better but maybe I'll come for dinner!

Went there for girls night and had a lovely time. It was kind of quiet (prob because of the snow)…read more We were greeted by a kind young man who took care of us the whole night. Service was excellent, food was delicious, and the drinks were great. I enjoyed our time there.

We went here for the first time yesterday. It's a very cute spot tucked away in the Highlands Ranch…read morearea with a deceptively large space. Loved the complimentary bubbles! We came for happy hour and tried the hamachi crudo, burrata, and crab cakes, which were all done really well. We'll definitely be back for dinner sometime!

This was our first time here and came across it when in the area and search "wine bar". We saw…read morethere was a happy hour from 3-6 PM, so we stopped by. This is a cute place in a strip mall. We were immediately sat on the patio around 5:45 PM. We were greeted and given "welcome bubbles". What a nice touch. After about 5 minutes, we were finally given menus. Other people were sat around us, so we waited to ask for the happy hour menu. We ordered the chef's choice charcuterie, a cocktail, and a glass of wine. The drinks and board were yum, but not quite a wine bar as there were very limited option by the glass. Also, we had to ask for plates and silverware where this is a basic item. While deciding on dinner, we were approached a couple times by the 2 servers in the section. One was friendly, the other, not so much, rather indifferent and made us feel a little uncomfortable and not very welcome. This kind of set the tone for the rest of our night. We ordered the "family share" chateaubriand. We realize this is an expensive cut, but the portion is definitely not a sharing cut, around 4 oz. It is closer to a single entree. When it arrived, the plate was cold, like the meat was lukewarm and the cauliflower was ice cold. Again, we had to ask for silverware and plates for this "family style shareable" plate. We brought the cauliflower temperature up with the server and got new cauliflower after we were done with the rest of the meal. Also, I sat with an empty wine glass and no one stopped to ask if I needed another glass. When the servers did stop by, it was a short interaction and we never even had a chance to ask before they were already walking away. We saw so many people come in and out that they must be doing something right, but for us, our experience was mediocre. If our meal would have been the correct temperature (it was well prepared, just cold) and better execution on the service, we may have had a better experience.
