| - Relaxed place with a nice...albeit dusty patio/outdoor area.
Like Dean & Deluca in Southpark...this place also serves sushi?????Which I really don't get? Oh well.
Servers are very good and attentive though I find if you sit at the sushi bar it can be hit or miss. Also, depending upon the staff and/or day, I have found that staff sometimes get a bit wrapped up in "duties of cleaning, fixing, organizing, stocking...rather than serving and waiting on customers, so that continues to be a disappointment for me.
I find the lighting to always too bright in this place as is the lighting out side on the patio...its a wine bar folks....not a grocery store?
Food for me has only involved lunch, which their sandwich menu reads like a Dean and Deluca-esk list, but the quality doesn't even come close.......though the pricing is right on. I have to say, after a few times here at lunch, I'll only being drinking here going foward.
Furniture and decor just doesn't make sense to me. This isn't a neighborhood bar...it actually doesn't even have a bar. It is very laid back and if you can stand the noise from traffic...which is loud due to it being on a major through fair, then outside seating is better than inside.
I find folks like to use it as a jumping off point and for me, it is on my way home and on my way to the bars in the center of the city...or dinner places, so it will continue to be a favorite on my list........just not as much a favorite as the Wooden Vine of course *wink*
