Ok. My first yelp review. In fact my first ever. I'll be gentle with me. if you grew up in Sunnyslope like I did then you would know the shock I felt when I heard that a wine bar could exist in the local neighborhood for drunk dive bars so sleazy that Charles Bukowski wouldn't dare step foot in them...... is only as likely as Charles Bukowski actually writing something good!
Note to Chuck: Hey Chuckie, just because you were pissed and drank more booze in a night than most of us drink in a month doesn't make you a great writer.. no matter how much glory the hollywood hipsters heaped on you...
But I digress.
Bomberos is a fresh fun cool little place to hang out in the Slope'. I think that the wines by the glass are VERY over priced for the location. I mean holy cow, this is Sunnyslope, not Los Angeles.
That being said I know they have some ok wines by the bottle for 30-40 dollar range.
The "bar" is small and tiny and really only good for 1-3 people... Outside is much nicer and roomier.... Really, I like this place more for the outside of just sitting with some friends and chilling... listening to some music. The menu is predictably safe.... ( please , for the love of God, add some sopresseta to the speciality meats dish...) the wines ho hum and the service, well not so much.
All in all I will be back, but only because my expectations are not as high as the people who think this place is so great, kind of like the same people who think Chuck Bukowski is a great writer... 2 stars for just having a wine bar in Slope and the great outside area. I'm a tough bastard...
