I had originally given them a one star review. Was contacted by Chris the owner with an apology for a reservation they canceled. They asked us for a second chance and we gave it them. They totally made good and we had a very pleasant evening.

I came here for dinner with a few friends and overall had an ok experience. I wasn't feeling particularly hungry so had a glass of wine, the sourdough with olive oil and salt, and their soup of the day. The sourdough was delicious; the soup was too salty but creamy and warming.My biggest disappointment was the service. My first issue was the general lack of attentiveness. I walked in and was left standing awkwardly at the doorway for almost 10 minutes. I even made eye contact with one of the staff and they didn't bother coming over. I finally made my way to the back and told them I had a reservation for 6 people. They then proceed to tell me that they don't have the reservation because Open Table has been down. No apology, no attempt to rectify the situation... seriously? Luckily, there was a larger table wrapping up their meal, so I didn't have to wait too long, but I was very disappointed in how they handled that situation.Not sure I'll be back.

Very disappointed in this restaurant. We made a reservation one month ago for six people. Two days before our reservation we get a note from them saying, "So sorry, we are closed for a private party on Dec 14th...." Did someone just book the entire restaurant three days ahead of time? Did they include any type of discount along with their apology? Nope...none of that. They simply tell our party two days before our reservation, "Sorry buddy...you are out of luck. Wish you all the best in finding a new reservation for 6 in an area typically booked weeks in advance."Certainly not the worst problem in today's world....but disappointing all the less. We will never go to this restaurant in the future.

Quaint place with a small, but nice selection of wine. Great service from the charming manager, Maya. If I'm in from Madison, WI again, I will visit.

Lovely bartender very fine a complete transformation from the mean lady who used to work at the location. Give it another chance this lady is NICE and plays oldies!!!!

The menu and wine selection, while brief in both cases, provided us with some delicious food and real “finds” for the imported and domestic wines. We sat at the counter and were treated to attentive service and information on the wines and wineries. This is one wine bar we would certainly return to.

Lovely little spot! Nice wine, nice service, very chill vibe. I only had olives and almonds and wine but it was so nice!

Very good wine and tasty bites to eat! Good atmosphereRecommended!
Stopped in for restaurant week special to try a few dishes. Good wine selection and super cute interior. Definitely a small establishment so I would suggest a reservation to make sure there is space. We got the charcuterie board which I hope was just sized down for the special because it came on a small plate and I would have been disappointed if that was the full size for the price. Everything was tasty though. Really liked the fresh salad with seasonal fruits. Would certainly stop by for a happy hour if I'm in the area!

Always a great time and amazing wines ♥️

This is more of a bar than a restaurant, but the flatbread and salads were good and the service was attentive. We ate here before a symphony, and it was nice to know that we would get out in time. Service was quick.

Really enjoyed my time here and the bartender/waiter was super nice and friendly! We ordered the bruschetta and a bottle of rosé wine from Provence. Overall the drinks and vibes were great.The bar is small so finding seating in the evening or during their busy hours may be difficult depending how many people you go with.

Perfect spot for a date or catching up with a friend. It was a rainy night so there weren't a lot of people so it was quiet and cozy. Service was super friendly, and accommodating to menu tweaks. She also emptied the bottle for my last glass. Great value!
