Outstanding, wonderful, amazing! It was beyond our expectations! The servers were extremely knowledgeable about the wines and the food pairings. We were able to talk with the chef too who was extremely kind. The atmosphere, wine, and food were absolutely amazing!

Absolutely fantastic dining experience! The food was incredible and the wine selection was top-notch. Phil was an amazing host, incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating to our dietary restrictions (gluten and dairy-free). He made us feel right at home. Taylor the chef was also very helpful and even showed us what he substituted in my meal to accomodate my diet. This is hands down the best meal I’ve had in Durham. Can’t wait to come back!

One of my favorite chill spots, even when by myself. The staff are kind and engaging. Taylor the chef is an artist. I recommend the special events where food and wine are paired over several courses. The chef accommodated different dietary restrictions for these events too, like no meat.

Not sure how I’ve missed this gem! Dined here before an event at DPAC. It was an ideal location, a very short walk. The food, drink, and service were amazing. We shared the buratta appetizer. I had the sweet corn carbonara. My table mates ordered other pasta dishes and flatbread. Wonderful selection of wine by the glass. Everyone was pleased with their meal. I’m looking forward to my next visit!

Had a great meal and some really tasty wines.
The three pasta dishes we tried were good:
corn carbonera, duck bolognase and the shrimp with lemon grass. The corn carbonera got the best review from the table.
Service was wonderful! Everyone who came to the table was friendly and very knowledgeable.
Will go back soon.

The staff is always so friendly and knowledgable, and it helps that their patio is dog-friendly :) The wine selection is great, but the food is absolutely outstanding. We ordered the Spicy Arrabbiata and Beet Wellington off of their new menu and we couldn't believe how tasty they were. It's so refreshing to see such creative vegetarian/vegan selections as typical restaurants offer the same, boring thing. Can't wait to go back!

Great retail selection - many regions and varietals well-represented. Very nicely-curated by-the-glass list that changes frequently. Don't sleep on the food menu! The chef has serious talent. Fun events - some full-blown dinners with wine pairings; some wine-focused tastings with winemakers. All the staff is great - knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and able to dial-in wine recommendations. Also a nice, flexible event space. Definitely a "must go" when in Durham.

This is an amazing place. The staff are so nice and incredibly knowledgeable on the wines they offer. If you like wine, then prepare to stay awhile as they have a restaurant that absolutely backs up the high quality wines. The sliders and flat breads were incredible. I’d sign up for any one of their future wine dinners after today’s lunch.

Intimate and pleasant. The service is careful and welcoming- the chef of the menu takes his time and really creates a well balanced and lovely meal. The staff is great with personal picks and options to pair. Definitely a weekly spot :)
