    glass of wine
    Cassie D.

    Walked in and was immediately greeted. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and helped with my wine selection and gave me a couple of samples before I decided on the Loscano Malbec. My hubby had a beer and we shared an order of truffle garlic fries. These were AMAZING and the wine was so good that we bought 2 bottles to take home. This is a hidden gem, with friendly staff, great wine, great ambiance and a nice variety of food on the menu. We will be back soon to try out other items on the menu.

    Found my neighborhood bar, great location, easy to find, small and quaint with good vibes. Live music on Saturday was very nice. Food was good , had green chile pork and truffle fries ; so yummy. Drink was Japanese mule, refreshing and perfect!

    Happy Hour 3-5pm

    Nice place to meet for happy hour! I came here to meet a colleague friend for HH yesterday and we ended up staying close to their closing time. I arrived early and the staff here were really nice and initially I wanted to sit outside but staff said there was no shade at 4pm. So, I opted to wait at the bar for my friend. HH is from 3-5pm and they have plenty of sparkling, white, red or beers to choose from. My friend arrived around 4:30pm and she had a prosecco. I stuck to a Hefeweisen beer. We chatted for a bit and then ordered up some food for HH and we opted for the baked goat cheese and truffle fries. Both dishes were delicious! The only complaint is that we needed a few more slices of bread for the ample amount of baked goat cheese served. Staff were friendly and helpful and this feels like a nice, quaint neighborhood wine spot. The place is classy and music playing overhead worked for me as songs they played are also in my own play list. Bartender let us know that W-F there is also live music. I like this place and will come back, especially for live music and to sit outside.

    The food and service at this local restaurant are top notch! I haven't ever ordered anything that I didn't think was elevated above average. The ambiance is modern, clean and when weather permitting they have a great patio. It's small but not too small and they even have a big room for larger parties that is perfect. We had 3 dishes, shrimp capeletti, burrata & the cold beets. Everything was delicious. The shrimp were atop a perfectly prepared pasta with tons of flavor from lemon & capers. Bravo My Wine Cellar! I'll be back.

    Goat cheese was delicious and the weather was perfect for sitting outside. Service was fast and excellent!

    I'm obsessed with their tapas plates, and they have such a big menu! The Citrus Smoked Olives is warm, smokey, and the oil was sooo good with bread! The Tempura Cauliflower has a hint of spice in the tangy sauce! It's so delicious, and I'm obsessed with it! Pair it with Francois bubbly rose for the perfect girls night! Please go out and support this women owned, locally owned, small business! This place is so cute and their food is delicious!!

    Always check in before ordering. Never know what kind of discount you may get. This place has a very comfortable environment. Dim in some areas. Bar seating, main seating and outdoor seating available. You can make reservations and they have seating for large groups. Happy Hour is Tuesday -Friday 3-5. Food and drink options on the list. But...the food. So the chicken is done perfectly. Just way too salty. But the Mac and cheese/roast beef-ugh. Not for me. The cheese was really a white grainy thick cream and the meat had lots of fat in it. I know a lot of people like that. I am not one of them. Oh. And I asked about that wine special that is supposedly 50% off, the waiter said you can't believe everything you see on line. Also, the lavender waffles that drew me in, are no more. And they were "out of" two of the items on the menu that we tried to order. I really had high hopes for this to be a favorite spot.

The ambiance is higher class, with what I'd say a smaller seating area, which felt more intimate. Our conversations were not interrupted by anyone sitting near by.

They also offer a table side cheese wheel experience. I had picked out what I wanted to order before arriving, but was disappointed when I learned that the menu I had looked at was not the most current one. So I decided to order the Roasted Beet Salad and Fettuccine alla Bolognese. Both items were good and flavorful. We were given bread to eat with our entrees which was also good. I think most of my friends also enjoyed what they ordered. One of my friends ordered the Jumbo Shrimp Linguine which came with head on shrimp. That was an interesting experience. I would come back here and try other dishes. It looks they offer a happy hour/aperitivo menu that seems like a good deal.

    We stopped by Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant on a Friday evening around 8 p.m. for dinner…read more Located right across from the mall in Chandler, parking won't be a problem in the free lot that surrounds the restaurant. Ambiance (4/5): Nice-looking restaurant. And a spacious one at that. Once you walk in, there's a wine tasting area. Pass through that, and you'll see a bar area on the right and a sit-down area straight ahead. We ended up sitting at the bar. There were only two seats available, at the end of the bar, where the seating was much lower than the rest of the bar. A bit of an awkward set-up, but I'll take that any day of the week over waiting. Service (2.5/5): The restaurant was packed on a Friday evening. The wait time was an hour and a half which is pretty wild. Luckily, we found the last two seats at the bar. Service was about average. Not terribly friendly, not terribly efficient, but not bad either. They were out of the entree I wanted which was a bit of a bummer. Drinks (4/5): While they have a full bar, Cooper's, as the name indicates, is known for their wine. They even have a wine club. I ended up going with a wine flight where you get to try four different wines. There are some restrictions, but you can pick pretty much most of what you want from their large menu. It was nice to get a mix of wines I was interested in. I love the variety! Food (4.5/5): They start you off with some complimentary warm pretzel bread and butter which is always a nice touch. From there, even though they were out of my first choice, my second choice wasn't too shabby. I went with the chicken picatta which is one of my favorite Italian dishes. Good portion size with three breaded chicken fillets, plus the pasta. The lemon sauce was just right. A filling and delicious meal. My partner in crime had the Caprese flatbread, which I tried... also delicious. The first time I visited Cooper's was in Tampa many years ago. It's great to dine with them again (just try to avoid peak hours if you can)!

Dive bar feel that is clean and has charm and a great neighborhood vibe. The band in the corner didn't drown out our conversation and played old country music that was fun and upbeat. Our waiter was great offering suggestions and checking in on us regularly. Where the disappointment came in was our food and drinks. We ordered sliders, quesadilla, and the Philly cheesesteak. All of them were "fine" with the sliders being more bread than slider and same for the Philly. The quesadilla was the best of the options and had lots of ingredients packed in. Our drinks were also less than ideal as they seemed to have zero alcohol. If you are gonna drink go with beer since what you see is what you get. Cocktails were short pours and watered down. I even called them out after the first one and nothing changed with the second so I stopped donating. At the End of the Day, Good Time Charlis is not a bad stop and I'm sure the regulars are die hard. So if you go, let me help in my experience and simply order a quesadilla, beer of choice, and listen to the band...the best part of the night.
