City Winery
kl133120 on May 11th 2013
Some days a glass of wine and a good show are about all you want out of life. Fortunately, City Winery provides both. This sexy space makes a great music venue (the Roots were doing a warm-up when I went!), and offers a killer, Napa Valley-style wine list and food menu to seal the deal. They even offer tastings and classes if you’re looking to get your knowledge/drink on at the same time. Take a seat at the bar and strike up a conversation; most patrons are amicable. But a heads up: avoid the nights where there isn’t some form of event. The space is big enough to feel awkward without a mutual distraction.
Bottom Line:
- Size: cavernous
- Atmosphere: jovial
- Outdoor space: nope
- Seating: yes
- Food: yes
- Live music: most days of the week, see website for schedule
- Crowd: friendly, wine-and-music loving bunch
- Staff: pleasant and knowledgeable
