This little house in Aurora not only has a nice wine selection and "neighborhood" bar, the food is usually very good. In the winter, it's a warm atmosphere inside the small bar, that never feels too crowded despite the close quarters. Tables are available, for larger groups(8-10) the back room feels more intimate. There is also an additional private room available.
In the summer, the outdoor patio adds to the space, and service is still good even though you aren't indoors. Later at night, there usually a roaring firepit that keeps the patio a feasible option even on chillier nights. My absolute favorite? The jalapeƱo poppers. Not deep fried, but cooked with chorizo, cheese and a creamy sauce w sour cream for dipping. My very favorite place in the area.
