My only issue is with the bruschetta. I didn't realize we were building our own and I didn't care for the layout or the ricotta toppings. I'll just skip it next time. The lamb and shrimp were succulent! The sweet and savory combo of fig and prosciutto plays with your tastebuds. Wine Grotto is always a winner!

The flatbread a couple of years ago to now, omg... the mushroom flatbread with ground waygu is fantastic! The buttery crust plus the surprise of waygu. Can't go wrong!! We ordered the meatballs and olives too. Everything was great. Love the vibe of the wine grotto too.

First, to make getting here simple, this is the bar and lounge at the Sheraton…read more Here I was, staying at the Residence Inn and thinking, "Gosh, I really don't fell like cooking after this looongg day!" I decided to check out the bar/lounge at the nearby Sheraton and have to say, no wonder Marriott decided to buy these guys! They have great beers on tap and great food. I had the sliders and the Santorini salad, which has fried artichokes on it. The sliders were great. Straight up beef patties on a brioche-like bun. No filler, slightly thin, but still tastes great and beefy. Just what I wanted. The Santorini salad is about twice as big as I thought it would be for $9. I really liked the greens which included butter, red, iceberg and romaine lettuces. It also had goat cheese, olives and fried artichoke hearts. Yum, but I couldn't finish it. Since I'm at the Res Inn I just took the rest with me. I also had the Blond ales on tap. Their big deal is supposed to be the wine selection, but the beer selection is very good. Perfect for slider night! Full, refreshed and ready for he long plane rides home tomorrow.

The food and service here are really good, and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxing. Located in the lobby of the Sheraton, you almost miss it because it is so quiet. The ambiance is a little dark but not really dark - so perfect for relaxing. There is an unobtrusive TV above the bar for sports enthusiasts, but it is quiet to allow for conversation. The food ranges from quite good to really, really good. The bruschetta is distinct and fantastic. The mixture is served separately from the crustini, ensuring that the bread doesn't get soggy. And it has little pieces of fresh mozzarella in it to add even more freshness! Their fried mozzarella is also quite good, clearly freshly made. A friend had their salad and got blackened salad on it and really enjoyed it. They are happy to customize orders, whether that be food or drink. And they are happy to make drinks extra strong, so that's never a bad thing!

We grabbed a spot immediately at the bar and perused the wine list. Our server was generous with letting us sample before committing to a glass. I tried orange wine for the first time and decided to stick with whites. A Riesling from Saarland hit all the right notes. For food, we ordered shrimp cocktail. 3 plump shrimp over ice with a side of cocktail sauce and shavings of fresh horseradish arrived. We savored every bite. Next up was the venison tartare. It was a unique take on the meat, mild in flavor. I would absolutely order again and recommend. If ladder 4 is on your list to check out, do not hesitate to go. I think you'll find that it's a very satisfying place to visit on a night out.

From the moment we walked in, the romantic, cozy vibe set the tone for a great evening. But the real star? The food. We are obsessed with the fresh bread and house sauce served as an appetizer--I honestly could have made a meal out of just that! I had been craving something with yellow peppers and was thrilled to find a chicken pasta dish that featured them. It hit the spot perfectly--so flavorful and satisfying. The rest of my family went with the chicken fettuccine Alfredo, which was equally delicious and creamy without being too heavy. If you're missing Moro's like we were and looking for a place with authentic flavors, great service, and a romantic ambiance, do yourself a favor and give Magadaleno Ristorante a try. You won't be disappointed!

Love the owners commitment to ensuring it's a great drink. * Friendly staff. * Plenty of wine choices as well a variety of beers and ciders. *Wine flights- always fun *You can order pizza from the local pizza place. *There are chips and pretzels available. *The gift shop is always costly as the wife always gets a shirt or something. What could be better: * Honestly have no complaints. Only thing that would be better is a few more snack choices

Vesper is a fun little spot in Core City. Want to have a drink while you peruse through their vast…read moreselection of cookbooks and chef oriented literature. Their food menu is mostly lighter dishes, and while I didn't eat anything, I did watch them bring out the mussels to the couple next to me and they looked really amazing. While I was there I got a chance to meet and talk to the owners and they were really nice and attentive. They have a nice drink menu with a wide choice of wine (obviously) but also some interesting liquor and beer options. Their cocktail program is actually quite unique. If you want to buy bottles though, I think this is where they excel, because they have some really nice bottles available for sale, which of course you can drink on the spot, but they do charge a $20 corkage fee, which is why I knocked them down a star. I can understand if you're bringing your own bottle, but if you're buying the bottle there, I think it's kind of crazy to have that high of a fee. Just my opinion though. Other than that, the experience is great and definitely a great spot to go before or after dinner at Barda or Puma.
