    Restaurant is small and hidden behind a small bar area. Easy to get a reservation the day before a Friday 7:30pm slot, restaurant was not full which led to a slightly disappointing atmosphere. Food was world class and outstanding. Tasting menu brought surprises and well executed, friendly service. Discovery wine pairing was well thought out and good value (relatively). Would recommend.

    Restaurant 1890 was truly a lovely experience. Definitely opt for the wine pairings. Keith, the sommelier, elevated the evening with his expertise, selecting wine pairings that were both thoughtful and intriguing.

    Unbelievable attention the entire evening all the way around. Keith was very knowledgable of the wine choices and the fixed tasting for dinner was a delightful surprise and didn’t disappoint. Thank you for a wonderful evening
