I'm not sure how I missed this place before. I'm deducting a few stars based on some low level service I received recently; otherwise I really like this place.
I had friends in town recently and we popped in here because I always forget about it. We sat down at the bar and said we wanted a flight/tasting. The bartender asked if we had a Groupon. I said no, but hold on. I promptly bought the groupon. He he .
He wasn't really happy about that. But I mean come on... he's the one who brought my attention to it. I'm a smart girl
the Groupon included two tasting and an appetizer plate. Since there were three of us and one really wasn't drinking, two of us used the groupon and one ordered one glass of wine.
The appetizer place was fantastic: cheese, crackers, grapes, etc. Well done.
We only got through 3 of our tastings before we had to leave.
Unfortunately, we got a phone call that a friend of ours' dad died. One of the girls was quite upset and visibly crying. As she was in the bathroom, two of us told the bartender that we had some bad news and had to leave immediately.
I'm a bit annoyed that he charged us for the extra drink and here is why:
we still had quite a few tastings left on our flights. REally dude? You see a girl get up crying, we tell you we have to immediately leave and you give us a $7 bill even though we'd BOTH only used up HALF of our tastings.
Bad form, sir. Bad form. I thought it was kinda lacking sense being as how we still had pours left. Come on. it evens out... at least that's how I think of it.
