We came here for happy hour on a Monday evening and we were one of the only customers in a nearly empty restaurant, so service was pretty efficient. We almost had the entire staff catering exclusively to us. I’d say the restaurant kind of feels like a cross between a bistro bar and a 50s restaurant with dim lighting. Once we took a look at the menu, of course we had to get a wine flight.
Between 2 of the $13 wine flights, we ordered a Melon de Bourgogne, Merlot, Gamay, and then we were recommended a Rose Grenache, and an an orange wine, which was interesting.

$ 7 Chicken Liver Mousse:
okay! It was topped with chives, served with cornichons.

$10 Jamon Serrano Croquetas:
good! definitely fresh, because it came piping hot. I had to cut it in half and let it steam for a few minutes.

$19 Octopus Carpaccio – pickled capers and pickled peppers, pomegranate:
great! very tangy taste, get it if you like sour flavors

$29 Duck Leg Confit – Grimaud farm duck leg with gratin dauphinois, salad, duck jus:
excellent! crispy skin on duck leg with green salad and radishes helped lighten it up.

When we got our bill, it came tucked inside of a French paperback, which I thought was a cute touch. We got full from happy hour, though two items were not from the happy hour menu. I give Amelie a 9.2/10

Amazing local spot for great wines, small bites, and cozy chic vibes. The team are super helpful in guiding you on choosing your beverage of choice, and the food is a nice complement. Also you can use the Blackbird app to pay and earn rewards, which is cool.

We discovered this place by chance simply looking for good places near cable car stops. We arrived just in time to have happy hour prices on two flights of wine and a cheese and meats plate to share. Then we followed up with full glasses of our favourite wines and another cheese plate. They had some lovely sauces and honey to accompany the cheese and the baguette was wonderful. There was a lovely vocalist and guitarist playing Portuguese songs and jazz standards. We speak both French and English and were served in both. This really stood out as a wonderful experience.

Awesome happy hour, make sure to get the customized wine flight! For food, we had a vegetarian flatbread, fried artichokes, and pistachio goat’s cheese, all were so flavorful.

When I found out about this wine bar I just thought “another wine bar in the city” but now I would highly recommend this destination, it’s more than just “another wine bar”. We were in the neighbourhood and came to the happy hour (4-6) and we were pleasantly surprised. The wine flights had a huge variety to pick from and the cheese/meat board was super filling. The staff is friendly as well! I lived in Spain and this experience took me back to the bars in Madrid. Plus there was live music after 6.

Wine was really not good—do not go here for wine. Atmosphere might be nice another time, but the night we went it was really loud club-like music. We got the artichoke appetizer though and that was good.
