I came in with my friend on a Thursday evening and it wasn't too full. It's located at the end of…read morethe downtown so it's a nice place to grab a small bite and a drink before walking around, which is exactly what I did. I ordered the savvy spritz wine cooler and my friend ordered the cherry lavender rose. I loved that the spritz wasn't too artificial tasting since a lot of places tend to be. I wish it would've been a little stronger but I get that it's more of a fun cocktail wine that's meant to be light. The food here was insane. We ordered the Margherita flatbread and while it's simple the quality was great and the cheese was super good and had a nice pull. The vibe here is great it feels very safe having mostly had women patrons. The music was nice and definitely gave it a special vibe that you don't get just anywhere, there was a lot of Prince going on and Stevie Nicks ( I love). I'll definitely be back soon! Also the owner was super friendly and seemed like he was happy to be there.

My friends and I came here for a GNO and got to choose our own seating, so we picked the little lounge area with the sofa in the corner Our server let us try a few wines for free and we ended up ordering a bottle. We also ordered the fig, arugula, and prosciutto flatbread and it was so good. The cheese plate came with a Spanish chili oil and it was bomb. Our total came up to $133 for 3 people, which wasn't too bad. Our server was friendly and chill. The only issue was that we were never offered water, but everything else was great. I would definitely come back here

We went for a glass of wine each, but the food is what blew my mind. I ordered the chicken kebab (pictured) and my husband had an eggplant dish, and both were phenomenal. I cleaned out my plate, and mind you, this was after my full four course meal dinner lol But the service is the stickiness. The owners are a wife and husband duo. You just get joy out of watching them serve their customers together. And while this is my first time here, I think this will be a favorite!

We were immediately welcomed with warm, crispy, delicious bread on the table as soon as our full party arrived. Spaghetti Carbonara - amazing! Creamy with plenty of protein and pasta itself was perfection Seafood Risotto - we didn't like this as much. The rice was a bit on the firmer side, but still really delicious! Calamari Fritti - it was okay. The batter was super crispy but a bit on the harder end which is different from the usual delicate batter I've had at other places We were too full from our meal for dessert, but the owner came over with some almond biscotti on the house which was super sweet of him! Definitely would come back to try their other offerings. Such a homey restaurant with cool vibes.

Decent service, okay food. This place is easy to make a reservation for a large group…read more For appetizers, we got the bruschetta. This was good and 2 orders was enough to feed about 10 people with one slice each. The server did take away the leftover pieces without asking if anyone was going to eat it though. For the main dish, I got the Penne con Pollo. The dish was a bit bland in my opinion and was not really memorable. My dish was one of the last ones to come out and before it came out, a server had come around with a bowl of parmesan, offering it to those who already got my order. However, since I got my dish after, I never got the chance to ask for parmesan. For dessert, I got a slice of tiramisu, which I also thought was okay. There was uneven amounts of lady fingers (took a photo of the better side but the opposite side was mainly just cream). Probably could use a bit more dusting of cocoa powder as well. I did feel that the service felt a bit rushed and disorganized (such as forgotten utensils), though it may have been a one off day.

Parking is bit limited, but I was able to find parking a Saturday afternoon, since the other businesses did not have too much going on. Once you enter this space you will see a massive wall of tins to your right, and to your left there will a be a fridge with beer and other drinks. Also to your left a beautiful bar, that it's soft color palette will make you smile. We were greeted and helped by the owner. She used to work on HR and now she is following her passion. She is so friendly, and such a great host, that it almost felt like I was visiting a long term friend's business. Now the menu it's extensive with tins from Portugal, Spain, and many other places. Highly recommend that you consider making it a boards because the bread is so yummy. She made recommendations on wine pairings, but of course you pick. It was such a cool experience to pick tins, and chill by the bar. Super cool concept. If you are a fish lover this place is a must visit.

Didnt get around to trying the food but had two glasses of wine and was a little underwhelmed by the selections. Given they ONLY serve wine, I thought they might have flights in addition to glasses. But I didnt see any flights. While the service was fine, I did sort catch them lounging around in on the couches on their phones while on shift. I get its slow but its just not a good look. The location is right at the end of a street so there are constantly cars making u turns and coming in and out of parking. So sitting outside isnt terribly ambient. IDK, it was truly a fine experience but I have no desire to go back.
