  • Markku L.Mt Rainier Shiraz with grilled rare tuna fillet

    55555 by Markku L.

    55555 by Candice C.


  • Laura W.Fab wine selection! Menus looks wonderful too. About to tuck into short rib and a seafood stew

    55555 by Laura W.


  • JeffYou MUST try the spicy mushroom soup! Try it with a flight of sweet white wine of your choice.

    55555 by Jeff


  • DQ R.You can't go wrong with the Sea Salt Caramels. They're perfect!

    55555 by DQ R.


  • Braca T.Just excellent.

    55555 by Braca T.


  • meganBest wine-by-the-glass selection I've seen in my life!

    55555 by megan


  • Cortney E.Bottle selection is great and glass/taste list is solid if you're not hoping to see tons of West coast. Curried cauliflower was horrible, don't bother.

    33333 by Cortney E.


  • Brad A.The Halibut is out of this world. Goes great with a Nice Oregon Pinot J. Christopher.

    55555 by Brad A.


  • Bihter F.It was the best crab/mushroom pasta EVEEERRR....

    55555 by Bihter F.


  • Kevin H.can't go wrong with the lobster Mac and cheese! grilled salmon sandwich was also a delight! great ambiance!!!

    55555 by Kevin H.


  • Scott A.Great food, drinks, and ambiance - and some good evening light.

    55555 by Scott A.


  • Wes S.Cheese and cured meats were poor and unsatisfactory. Pretty disappointing for a wine and cheese bar...

    33333 by Wes S.


  • Vivy L.The Anderson Ranch Lamb and Proscuitto Meatballs (Pappardelle, moroccan tomato sauce, feta cheese and mint) was the most amazing pasta dish there! It was more flavorful than the lobster Mac & cheese!

    55555 by Vivy L.


  • Ines T.Love both the Spanish and the French wine flights - only $15 each! Do yourself a favor & order the poutine and lobster Mac & cheese. You're welcome. End the night w/the espresso tart & coffee!

    55555 by Ines T.


  • Tim L.Try the Scilio Etna Rosso, a tasty Italian red with plenty of raspberry, cherry, spices and mineral.

    55555 by Tim L.


  • Heather F.Don't feel like alcohol? The "Dry Soda" is excellent.

    33333 by Heather F.


  • Eric J.Looks like Bruce Wayne's penthouse from the Dark Knight. Superior wine list!

    55555 by Eric J.


  • ImpulseWine.comIf you're a fan of sparkling wine, odds are they have some great Champagne and other traditional style bubbly available by the glass.

    55555 by ImpulseWine.com


  • Jamie P.Lobster Mac and cheese. OMG!

    55555 by Jamie P.


  • Sarah B.The salted caramels with the Port pairing were amazing!

    33333 by Susan E.


  • Lauren D.The Brussels sprouts are incredible, and the cranberry chicken salad is delicious (despite not having lettuce)!

    55555 by Lauren D.


  • Marilyn W.Amazing wine, decent food, great atmosphere.

    55555 by Marilyn W.


  • ImpulseWine.comThey have a big selection of wine by the glass, so be sure and try a taste of something you're never had. Try a Soave, Chinon, Muscadet, or maybe something from the Jura in France.

    55555 by ImpulseWine.com

    55555 by Nils D.

  • Ti W.Price is fair but pizza is jut fine. Have some good wine on the list.

    55555 by Ti W.

    55555 by Fatima B.
