The wine list contains a many different options from all over the globe, but focuses on European wines. We ordered wine flights off the chalkboard by the bar. While I enjoyed the selections I received, Jonathan was less excited. However, he was happy with the wine he ordered by the glass after that. Coming from California we are used to seeing more wines from that region, the Pacific Northwest, Australia, or New Zealand on the menu. I found the increased choices from European vintners a welcome change for me.
Now, for food, we ordered several different tapas to share. By far our favorite food item was the sauteed mushrooms. They were wonderful – wild mushrooms perfectly prepared with marjoram and madeira. After finishing our first order, we asked our server to bring more! In addition we enjoyed the oil-cured tomatoes on grilled bread. This dish was also intensely flavorful and good to share. Other tapas we tried were the cheese plate, the charcuterie selection, and the duck. While everything was good, the mushrooms and oil-cured tomatoes were most memorable and what I look forward to going back to eat again soon!
