| - I wanted to love this place, really I did. I mean, how can you not love a place where the tag line is "Where wine is food"? But, it's the food - or rather the size of the food - I have the biggest problem with.
My friend and I stopped in with the intention of splitting a dessert and enjoying a couple glasses of wine. Based on the glowing recommendation of our friendly server, we opted for the apple pie with carmel sauce, topped with a scoop of vanilla gelato.
Be prepared, especially if you are expecting a traditional slice of apple pie. What arrived at our table was a miniscule tartlet, about the size of a small cupcake, graced with a tiny scoop of vanilla gelato. For 8 bucks. I could have easily fit the entire thing in my mouth in one bite. Hardly suitable for splitting, which our server should have warned us about.
In its defense, the dessert certainly was tasty. The wine was wonderful. And the atmosphere is cozy. But, as others have said, the portions are TINY - at least in this case.
I'm not sure if it will stop me from visiting again, but next time, I'll make sure to eat before I go!
