| - SWANK. Not what I would say could be considered casual at all, so put your fanciest duds on and prepare to spend your dough if you want to be able to actually eat here. I'm just lucky i didn't have to pay :).
Vin Room is a tapas bar, which a good choice of offerings. Our server was very knowledgable with wine and food pairings, and I actually found a glass of wine I enjoyed (I'm not a wine drinker).
We were feeling a bit adventurous, so we tried things we had never had before, or aren't served on many menus. Like the bone marrow. It looks a little gelatinous, but tastes amazing - yes!
Equally good, were the oysters (fresh), bison tartare, grilled octopus, cheese croquettes and Israeli couscous.
Again, unless you have the money to blow, this isn't a place where you'll leave having to undo your top button. It's good for a special occasion, or something different. It's conveniently located in the Mission district, and has a great patio in summer on the roof.
