Unfortunately, they were filled to the rafters on a Thursday, so they offered a sofa in the front of the restaurant. Which was fine, by the way, I just felt like all the action in the restaurant was just around the corner, literally. But even so there was plenty of atmosphere from where we were.\n\nOur server was busy but proficient, and we really enjoyed the antipasto and flatbread pizza. The wine was excellent. One thing that really caught me off-guard: dude wanted $5 for entry because there was music. Ummm, this is a wine bar/restaurant, not a music venue by any means. I'd expect that in Europe, but not Scottsdale on a Thursday night. The restaurant's website gave no mention of cover charges, and nor did any of the reviews I read on tripadvisor and yelp."^^ .
