This spot offers a quiet, cozy vibe ideal for conversation, enhanced by classic films playing gently in the background. While the bartenders bring friendly energy, the rest of the service leaves something to be desired. It’s a fine date night option, especially if you're not in a rush. A short but solid wine list comes paired with prices that feel a bit ambitious.
An easy vibe for any mood. Whether I needed to hang with coworkers or be alone with a book, the ambiance plus service delivers. Dmitry brings congenial and classy conversation to any and all types. Whether it’s slow or slammed, he made it a great night for me and my guests. Not many places can claim a creative space, excellent selections, and a polished staff. Vanguard can.
A hidden gem! This wine bar has a low-key, unassuming atmosphere that makes it the perfect spot to share a glass of wine and actually have a conversation. They have a solid wine selection and good variety without it being overwhelming. The bartender, Dmitrii, was incredibly attentive and friendly, adding to the overall relaxed and welcoming vibe. Highly recommend for a cozy night out!
