I love places like this. It is adorable and unique and intimate and perfect. The outdoor patio looks like a great hang out spot (but obviously it is too hot for any of that just yet) and the interior is small and intimate. I was surprised when I walked in as it was much smaller than I thought it would be- but who knows where I got the idea that it would be a gigantic place.
Our server was hilarious and fun- he happened to be from Ohio and informed me he was a Buckeye (I'm from Michigan, but I'm not a Wolverine so Buckeyes usually don't hate me) and was pretty cool about taking my fun jabs at his home state. He was super attentive and even was nice enough to give me directions home (horrific sense of direction). I kind of wanted to be best friends with him. Anyway...
I had the one organic glass of red wine on the menu (he brought me a sample first) and the Pasena. Both were great beverage choices. I also got to nibble on the tomato/mozzarella and flaked tuna bruschetta and was pleased with both. I'd go with the original.
I dream of the day that I find such a cute little place on the West side (feel free to suggest one if I'm missing it). The atmosphere rocks, and the unique booze options only add to the charm of this place.
