But, but but but what happened to the 3 star treatment... So my daughter and a slightly annoyed father (me) arrived around five pm, with the boss (wife) arriving a few minutes later. You know the feeling of dread when you're the first person in at a disco, or walking through downtown Beverly Hills with sixteen feet of toilet paper stuck to your fake Louboutin shoes,.....Iol just felt like writing something interesting, but nothing of the sort happened...sorry.
Yes the place was empty but it did fill up pretty fast. A very cute waitress started to tell us about the wine options. We started with a German white wine, we where told that the nose would be oily/plasticy which sent my wife on a oily tangent IE. That's all she could talk about for twenty minutes. Second choice was a Rose' and sorry but I can't remember a thing about that. Then it was two reds one produced by a guy in Long Beach and one produced in a chateau in France (I'm sure that's true,). At this point a remembered I had a 2.5lbs Tomahawk Ribeye steak with Morel sauce to make at home so that's where this story ends. I'f your looking for wine tasting this is a good choice. Ohh yeas the charcuterie board 3 stars...Who would give a wooden plank with some cheese and sausages that cost more than most people make an hour a four or five...
Read moreI've been reading a lot lately about finding a "third place". A place outside of work and home where you can relax, socialize, build your community. Wine on 2nd fits the bill.
The owners and the staff are so welcoming, as are the other guests. The vibe is perfect. Chill, calm. I got the baked brie and it was absolutely delicious! Is one of my favorite dishes anyway and when it's done right, chef's kiss. I paired it with a sparkling wine and it was exactly what I needed.
I'm already in love with this place, parking is easy, the location is great. Come and go grab a glass of wine and then go enjoy the Christmas lights or come here after. It's easy to get to, incredible ambiance. I can see why it won best wine bar last year. I expect it will do it...
