Overall very positive experience. Running a wine bar in a town with so many wine options is bold. Wine menu has enough local and non-local offerings that it is worth a look, but not so many that you get lost.I was amazed at the downtown Livermore feng shui of the patio seating area and would return just for this reason.Service was great.Seems that the menu has been organized by color and by grape which is typical, but would have preferred some additional delineation for local, regional, French, Italian, etc., to help with decision making. Looked for a Tempranillo and was disappointed with my options, but there were options. Would have preferred more offerings by the glass.

Food tastes great, beautiful presentation, service (Sylvia and Matteo) were amazing and front patio setup is awesome

Does not disappoint! Delicious food! Excellent service! Beautiful setting.

Great. Energy and atmosphere excellent food and wine and cocktails. Friendly service

I came in with a group that apparently heard great things about this place.I ordered the cauliflower base pizza.What I received was the worst pizza I have ever had. No exaggeration.The "cauliflower" base was not made "in house". It was more than obvious and I will explain why.The base was not cauliflower and if it was, it was probably some artificial paste combined with SOMETHING that made this whole extraterrestrial mix, impossible to chew. It had no taste, no flavour and it resembled the texture of a shoe sole. The topping was, no exaggeration, a mountain of mozzarella cheese melting on top of the base. Because the base was a shoe sole and clearly artificial, the whole mozzarella topping was falling down off the base, every time I would move the plate. Despite the spectacle, I tried to cut a piece and give this "dish" a try. I took a bite, tried to chew it, put it back on the plate and that was it.My friends were actually laughing, asking what is wrong with my pizza. I told them that wasn't pizza.It is beyond belief how something like this has been approved to be served to customers.

Tulio was amazing and gave us a fantastic experience. The wait staff was well trained and the food was on point. Our potatoes were a bit cold and when we mentioned it they brought out an entire plate of hot ones for us. I would suggest their salmon, it was impeccably cooked and I loved it, though I'm not that much of a fish person. I definitely recommend and plan to return.

We enjoyed the atmosphere and service. The menu lacked variety but the wine list made up for it. Came here for a birthday meal, both entrees were good. Bottom line, we'd return for another visit, but so far it's nothing to rave about.

Service was very friendly and food was amazing! The location is set back into the street which reminded me of a restaurant I went to in Florence. Very quaint.

The food and service was excellent. It was a great experience.

Nice little place, very close to downtown Livermore, or rather almost on the downtown strip. Perfect place to come and continue the wine party after the nearby wineries close down for the day. Good collection of wines, but at the same time good collection of cocktails too. Love the outdoor sitting and sometimes they have live DJ music too. Good, smiling, courteous, servers too...
