I've been working my way down this street. I've been to Market at the Fig and Flying Fig and finally got around to trying this place, Market Avenue Wine Bar. Next up - the coffee shop.
The patio, even though in front of the restaurant on the sidewalk, is quite quiet and comfortable as this restaurant is on a one way street with only a few other restaurants. Adjacent to the Flying Fig's patio, this one has some park bench seating with pillow cushions.
Market Ave doesn't have a large entree section on their menu, but they have a decent selection of really good tapas and surprising to me a large pizza menu. The pizzas are very Italian in my mind based on the topping options. I got mine with Basel ($.50), olives ($.5) and salami ($1)! Such great flavor! The pizzas are quite carb heavy though as they're served on French bread. But it's so good and flakey. The presentation is neat too - served on a thick slab paddle shaped wooden cutting board.
The appetizer/tapas that's my favorite was the small red stuffed peppers. Served cold. Amazing flavor! I would say the serving is only enough for one though.
The service is friendly and contributes to the at home atmosphere.
I highly recommend visiting this place when you need somewhere relaxing to eat, drink and unwind. Dogs welcome on the patio.
