    We loved having happy hour and shared some entrees. Everything was so tasty and delicious. We had preordered the oysters happy hour and they accidentally had miscounted the dozen. So they discounted our cocktails, which we were very appreciative. Will be back again!

    Elvis and Merina were excellent. They lifted our spirits, treated us like queens and really made the occasion very special. A great neighbourhood wine bar and restaurant with consistent service and quality of dishes.
