We require that everyone in your party orders a main course. Thank you for your understanding during these difficult times.

Carved out of what were once Schaller & Weber’s smoke houses is a chic and intimate enclave modeled after an Austrian style wine bar or Heurigen opening up into a beautifully lush weingarten, a true oasis on the Upper East Side.

    Food was scrumptious! There was one gentleman who was serving, bussing, and hosting. He was terrific!

    It was a bit loud for me, but that was more due to the people who decided to sit right next to us when there were many available seats. We truly did enjoy the food and plan to be back, hopefully not when the loud people are there!

    I felt really bad for the hostess who also was the waiter, server and busser. She never even got a chance to refill our empty glasses. Why have one person in charge of absolutely all the tables while also seating, refilling and cleaning? This made zero sense and therefore the service lacked as all the tables remained full the entire time. Will not be coming back and would not recommend coming here, unfortunately. Regretted bringing an out-of-towner. The food was good and the ambiance was nice.

    We didn’t love the limitations on the wine, and the hanger steak was a bit livery-while the vegetarian soup a bit like a dill dip, the rest, fish entrees, cheese and meats, side dishes, were lovely.

    This spot is a treasure and deserves FAR more patrons than it is seeing (at least in the evening I spent there). The lack of street frontage is likely holding the potential back a bit but if you are wondering and are ok with, or enjoy a sort of “covered backyard” type experience then this place is for you. Additionally, the food is excellent, fresh and unique. The sides were a highlight as well. Pleasantly surprised by it all but shocked that we pretty much had the place to ourselves.

    Food was great, service was great. It's a tiny place but there's a good amount of space between the tables so it was nice and quiet. Highly recommend the charcuterie board - we let the waiter choose and it was all delicious. Going back soon to try the fondue.
