| - Love this place. Love love love. Let's review:
Ambiance: Classy, intimate, romantic...great place to go on a date, or even go with a group of people. The patio is fabulous, with a view of the lake. Exposed brick wall, high ceilings...you can grab a table or a seat at the bar. I have never been here when it has been busy busy (which is fine with me), but there is always usually a group or two in there having a good time. There's also a pool table that's free to play, and some TVs so you can catch a sports game at the bar.
Drinks: Beer, mixed drinks, liquor, and of course, wine. Each season they change up some specialty drinks they have, and I usually try at least one each time I go. Otherwise, I'm a white wine drinker, while my boyfriend is a red. I prefer to go during happy hour, which is Tuesday all day and Wed-Fri 3pm-7pm ($4 draft beer, $5 wine, and some food is $6).
Food: I have never had a bad dish here ---the food is always so fabulous. Some things change every once in awhile. I love their cheese plate- you get several different types of cheeses with fruit, oil, and jam that I LOVE. It's pretty filling for just cheese and fruit too. Their buffalo chicken sliders: awesome. So good. If you're into fries, yolo fries are also good. I've had their smoked turkey ciabatta--so tasty, and I am usually reluctant try to ciabattas because it usually ends up being too much bread, but that was not the case for this sandwhich. I'm also a fan of their cheese bread. As I was writing this review I pulled up their menu to make sure I didn't miss anything, and it looks like they took something awesome off the menu---Latke. It was so good, if they did get rid of it, I hope the bring it back!!!
Service: It's all right. When they are busy, you can see how some of the servers get a little overwhelmed, but it's not too bad. Once while at the bar, I bought a round of shots for the group I was with. I told the bartender to make "whatever" for us, and he made the breakfast shot. I had heard about it but never tried one--take a shot, chase it with something else, and it's supposed to taste like pancakes with syrup. And oh boy, did it. It was so, so good. Cost about $35 for 4 shots, so ehhh, but they were good.
I def. recommend this place to anyone, even if you are not an avid wine drinker. There is a lot of construction on the surrounding streets right now as the city is rerouting the sewer system and connecting w. 73rd to the shoreway--so, at the time I write this review, you do have to take 74th or 76th to get to it. I hope the construction isn't hurting their business!!
I love this place.
