I was eating when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I wrote up this review
I could have sworn it was happy day
The place was full of people
There was a bottle of vino everywhere
Trying to figure what to order
You know I didn't even care
They say two cocktails vodka, vodka
Party over
Oops, just on time
So tonight I'm gonna party at Vintage 95
Vintage 95 in the little hot spot of downtown Chandler. I love this location and always enjoy coming to Chandler away from the crazy crowd of Scottsdale.
Vintage 95 is wine bar that serves up some contemporary American style food with local and fresh ingredients. The place itself is beautifully put together; classical mansion style! I came with a date and we started with looking at their drink menu. Vintage 95 has a awesomely constructed wine room with a chandelier to show it off! My dated ordered a cocktail drink while I just shot for the Tempranillo. For out food we started with the Artisan board with aged Gouda, Prosciutto, pickles, salted almonds, bread, grapes, and crostinis with a strawberry jam. Overall, a solid start to my wine; the aged Gouda was solid cheese, but perfect texture to mix with our pickles and cured meat. The strawberry jam was totally fresh and meshed well with our bread and crostini. For our entrees, my date ordered the Flatiron Steak while I went for the Pork Chops. Both protein was cooked to perfection, which we both ordered medium. The brussel sprouts was excellent according to my date whom doesn't really eat brussel sprouts. My pork chops has a perfect sweet bite because of the roasted cherry tomato and lemon mustard cream while the texture was slightly chewy. It came along with an over-easy egg too!
In the end, Vintage 95 is definitely one of my go to spots or my "ace" when it comes to places to recommend. - Enjoy!
