The wonderful guys working the exchange setup a table for us, which is so sweet. Great service, will return just because of that! But alas I needed food - check! and a nice glass of champagne - check! Champagne is only by the bottle, but they have a great variety. The Prosecco by glass was good, but I wanted a little something more. The tequila and whiskey/bourbon selection is vast for a wine bar, I was wildly impressed considering I'm not actually a wine drinker. The flatbreads are huge and the charcuterie board was fantastic! Can't wait to come back

I love that they have N/A bevs inspired by the alcoholic ones like spritz and mules - the huckleberry mule was fantastic. My girlfriends and I shared the charcuterie board and bruschetta - they have a smaller charcuterie board as well but the one we got was perfect for a group of 4. The bruschetta came with 3.

We had ordered a soup flight (bisque, chilli), flatbread with burrata, crab cake, lobster roll and a poke bowl. The only dish that disappointed me a bit was the rice bowl - I had a poke bowl in mind, but you have to order the fish separately, which defeats the entire purpose of a poke bowl. There was more rice than toppings, and the dish overall felt a bit dry. Everything else was pretty good. No complaints. Service was good. Overall a decent experience.

They changed their entire menu and the food is amazing. We got the brussel sprouts, Italian chopped salad, shrimp scampi, braised short rib, and butterscotch budino.

The place has always been beautiful so that was no surprise, such a great spot!

My server Karen was top notch and very informative and attentive. They served a focaccia bread which was amazing, I would go back just for the bread.

The serving size was generous, the pasta was prepared perfectly, and the sauce was delicious, however my chicken was overcooked.

Passion and knowledge - that was the impression I gathered after our trip to Class VI…read more The owner has a legitimate passion for wine and charcuterie. The variety of wine available on the menu is good, and the variety of charcuterie is even better. A friend of mine had suggested we try this place just the other day. It's been on our list, so we tried it last Saturday. We were greeted and seated promptly. The seats and tables are comfortable. There is a bar area with a flat screen TV set, and there was a good crowd at the bar when we arrived. Our server passed out the menus, which took a minute to take in. Do we go with a cocktail, or wine? We decided to go with red wine. For the wine, we went with two different glasses (one for each, but we shared). My wife went with the A & D Merlot, which was very bright with a surprisingly smooth finish. I went for the Ivory & Burt Cabernet, which was a good cabernet. The charcuterie is named, so we went with The Frank. It came with a good selection of sausages, cheeses, and mustard, along with dried blueberries, dried plums, and crackers. The selection and flavors worked well with the red wines we had selected, and the wines did a nice job of clearing the palate before we dove in on another cheese or sausage. I noticed they had a wine club - you can sign up for $35 a month (month by month charge, cancel anytime). If you are a wine club member, you get 20% off your purchases. We joined on the spot, got 20% off our ticket, and the two bottles of wine from this month. This isn't your usual DeKalb bar. This is a nice place with solid service. The art on the walls in some cases is for sale, and the owner's personally curated wines for sale are stocked on the back wall. We wrapped up with desserts - my wife had their Chocolate Mousse, and I had their Strawberry Cheesecake - these are served in small glasses, and are just perfect for finishing up. If you are looking for an interesting place to visit, this is a place you NEED to visit.
