The Scene – This lofty, casual space takes the fear out of wining and dining with a user-friendly menu and patient, whip-smart servers. Rowdy professionals crowd up front at the oval bar and "Tavern" area, while the low-ceilinged, intimate "Cellar" beckons formal diners. – – The Food – The contemporary American fare is bold and hearty: Wild mushroom risotto is a near-entree sized bounty of garlic, Asiago cheese and chanterelle and black trumpet mushrooms. Entrees wow as well: zinfandel-spiced pork chop is delicate in a grain-mustard chantilly, while grilled lamb T-bone…

Great hang-out spot

by Lombardo22 at Citysearch

My friends and I have been frequenting this place for the past 5 years, it's one of our favorite spots. We always have a great time, plenty of wine, plenty of cheese....need I say more?? I love choices and that's part of what keeps me coming back, I always get to try something new. Service is usually good - a friendly, cool environment, lots of fun, not too pricey either.

Best Cheese Menu in the City

by rightfielder at Citysearch

My coworkers and I come here at least once a week to nosh on cheese and drink wine after work . We always have great service, (or trust me, we wouldn't be back), I brought my wife here for our anniversary last year and we ate in the more formal dining room and it was a perfect evening. We made the reservation online through open table and wrote in that it was our anniversary, well they sent over 2 glasses of sparkling wine (it was great too, not cheapo) to start our evening, completely unexpected, but what a nice touch. The food is always good, the wine is great, the service is great and the cheese menu is fantastic.

I can't believe anyone would recommend this restaurant.

by Ricksrule at Citysearch

Really, what are people thinking. I was so offended. The service was horrible, the food really, gosh, I can't even describe how much I was disappointed with the food. The flavor just wasn't there! The service was far below par, and I just can't imagine that place has been open for 9 years. There are far better ways to waste your money, DON"T GO TO BIN 36!!!
