We'll transport you to the vineyards of Healdsburg, the lusciousness of Willamette Valley, the sidewalks of the East LA, and the world-renowned kitchens of San Francisco. All without leaving NYC. 

We're your neighborhood wine bar, and an homage to our many decades spent living on the left coast.

Our space features an airy, open floor plan, designed by award-winning architect Kimberly Ackert and her team at Ackert Architecture (who hails from the Golden State) with a stunning wine bottle lighting installation by the celebrated architectural lighting designer Derek Porter. We hope the clean, minimal design accented by warm, natural wood and plant life, evokes the feeling of living and dining in California.

 

More than our love of food + wine, we love people.
And we deeply believe in running a conscious business.
One that puts People First.
Equity in food + wine (and the world) is important to us.
We hope it’s important to you too.

To that end, we’ve curated a pretty rad selection of West Coast wines, 100% of whom are women, POC, and/or LGBTQIA+ winemakers and owners.

We also ask the hard questions - not just about how they make their wine, but about their labor practices, and commitment to bringing more transparency and equity to the wine industry.

We also serve a selection of California-inspired small plates, which are just as thoughtful (and delicious) as the wine selections. Oh yeah, and the whole menu is gluten-free.

P.S. (We) are Eric and Stephanie…nice to meet you!

 

Our belief:
Taste is highly personal, and subjective. We want YOU to be your own wine "expert."

That's why we offer the unique experience to taste every single bottle of wine before you buy —everything from rare Cabernet Sauvignon to award-winning Pinot Noir to small-production orange wines to the best rosé, and everything in between.

Grab a glass or a bottle - your choice.

Whether you're a seasoned pro or are just beginning to learn more about wine, our team has your back. With friendly (read: non-pretentious) service, wine tasting events, workshops, and more, we hope to be your go-to resource for all things West Coast food and wine.

We can't wait to see you soon!
