Hosted a welcome drinks for my wedding here and it was the best decision we’ve ever made. The service was exceptional and the food choices we made impressed our guests. The guests were raving about the meatballs and grilled cheese. Wine is also top tier and paired well with the oysters we had. I would highly recommend this location to host events.

A class act—deeply involved,...

Went to Ester's Wine Shop & Bar with a group of women. Perfect spot! The charcuterie board was divine, and the staff gave great wine recs. A few of us even bought bottles to take home or gift. Easy & inexpensive public parking next door. Highly recommend!
