I agree completely about the wonderful wine selection and you can buy a lovely glass from behind the bar to try before you buy. But not nearly enough has been said about the food!
I stopped by the first time to check it out with my mom who is from out of town but loves wine. We met the owner that day and learned about the store and restaurant.
Since then, my husband and I have dined there twice. Each time the food was simply superb. These people really care about their food!
We ate at the bar the first night and were in the perfect position to see the various dishes come out of the kitchen lots of lovely fresh salads with mancheo cheese and some nuts in a slightly spicy glaze on top. We ordered one the second visit and cant wait to have it again. The dressing was so tasty too. I highly recommend the crispy chicken. It's served with a mushroom gravy over faro. I would order this every day if I could! The faro was something new for me and a cross between barley & rice. We decided it was a rather healthy comfort food full of flavor.
We also ordered a side of fries and they had some delicious herbs on them, were hot, and tasty!
They do not seem to be in a hurry so it is a relaxed environment. You may need to flag them down to let them know you are ready to order or request your check, but they were great at keeping our water/wine glasses filled.
I understand that the wines by the glass change frequently, so guess there will new things to try each time we return.
Don't miss the doughnut dessert.
