It's kind of dusty
like an old bottle of wine.
just a bit of cheese.
D'vine, you leave me conflicted. Nice bartenders, interesting and way above average food. The bartender actually asked for a temperature on sliders. Sliders! I asked for med-rare, and they actually came out that way! There is a very nice selection of cheeses, a great wine by the glass/flight program. That being said, there's this kind of unkempt grittiness to the place. Dramatic chandeliers, with all different bulb wattages. Sit at the bar, and it just looks disheveled. An ATM is what greets you at the door. A little spit and polish would bump this up to a 4 star. I give 4 stars for the food, 4 stars for the wine list, 2 stars for atmosphere. I should mention, the bartenders are exemplary as well, and a great patio in the summer to watch the human drama of the warehouse district. And you do need alcohol for that. 3.5 out of 5 total.
Carry on.
