Stopped here with my boyfriend after a Flames game. I only mention that because I'm assuming that's why we got such terrible service - we didn't fit with the typical clientele? The server who seated us said they didn't have a menu, but rather, would get one of the sommeliers to recommend a wine to us based on our tastes. Okay.

I stumbled upon this Bar when I was reading Air Canada's contenders for best restaurants. I was surprised to see that it was only two blocks from my place. Point is, it's easy to miss. I am quite sure I walked by it at least a half dozen times and never saw it. It's SMALL. Very small. Only a few tables which filled up very nicely while we were there. The kitchen is open and also super tiny and explains the limited but delicious share menu. The wine list had plenty of choice including some orange wines. Would highly recommend it.

Only 28 seats--so go early, OR definite reservation.Ambience--simplistic, and cozy!A wonderful variety of wines--and more than one choice of rose!Charcuterie is always more than interesting.This time we tried the Shishito peppers---wow! very flavourful.Ask for their bread and house butter with this item!This is a great "secondary "location to enjoy that late night snack,and a full flavoured pairing!Still recommended.

Went for a wine testing with a friend and discovered that you can try a dozen different types of wine that I hadn't had the pleasure of trying before. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and they are affiliated with Metro Vino so you can go and buy the ones you like. The food was also amazing, simple and tasty.
