It's been a while since my husband and I have been up here, and with patio season and summer…read more(almost officially) here, we thought this would be a great time to revisit! We ordered the deviled eggs appetizer, my husband ordered the crab cakes, and I ordered the lettuce wraps app as my main. The crab cakes were really good (I had a bite or two), and the buns were unexpected but delicious! The lettuce wraps were also very good, but honestly not what I thought a lettuce wrap would be. I've seen other pictures of them that were much more traditional finger food for brunch, so not sure if they changed them entirely or if this is just dinner version. Tasty, but obviously not for picking up... it would be tricky to wrap them up in that tiny piece of lettuce and I did not want to get dripped on with the sauce. So, if knife and fork lettuce wraps were a thing - this would be it! I think the bib lettuce makes it hard as it's so frail and flimsy, so if I had any suggestions, maybe it would be to try wrapping them from a head of lettuce for a bigger, more firm piece of lettuce. Dessert was a strawberry shortcake. Nice finish to a richly flavored dinner. My husband asked for an espresso and it came in a huge mug. Not sure if this is standard, or if they ran out of demitasse cups. Service was more attentive on front end, but less as they got busy and our server got more tables. I asked another server for water refill and then a manager brought us a dessert menu since our server disappeared. He showed up with the check and we had to tell him we wanted dessert. We made reservation through open table and got seated immediately. When we left, the little lobby area was packed so we definitely went at the right time. I think the servers were getting a little overwhelmed (and I cannot blame them). Still a great view and worth the hassle of finding parking in downtown Alpharetta.

Everything was delicious and excellent. Solid flavors, ample portions. We did have some leftovers, but $75 for the Paella is a pretty hefty sum. With the Resy deal it was well worth it, but without it I'm not sure I'd get it again. Still, plenty of other things to choose from and I'm sure everything is excellent. All things considered, an overall solid restaurant and definitely better than an "ordinary" 4 star meal!

The Bacon Wrapped Dates were some of the best I've ever had. The bacon itself was noticeably high quality and perfectly cooked, which made all the difference. Combined with the sweet dates and glaze, the dish was absolutely outstanding. We both got the Apples & Blue Cheese Salad with serrano ham, which was fresh, flavorful, and perfect for summer. My friend loved her shrimp tacos as well. The service was warm, attentive, and just super friendly. We sat on the patio and had a relaxing lunch despite the summer heat. Being in the heart of busy downtown Alpharetta, parking can be a bit of a challenge, but that's simply part of the territory and certainly not a knock on the restaurant itself. This wasn't a full dinner experience, just a quick stop while we were in the area, but it definitely lived up to the hype. I'm already looking forward to coming back, spending more time, and exploring the rest of the menu.

So pretty and thoughtfully appointed. A neutral setting that had comfortable seating and lovely lighting. Probably a good idea to bring your readers if you need them to see the menu! Haha! Our server was lovely and so relaxed. He explained many things on the menu to us and offered guidance as to what he thought we might like. He did not miss a mark! We all had a cocktail Very refreshing! Then we got the 8 Spread Sampler. It came with a variety of fresh traditional spreads. Some I was familiar with and others I had never had before. Each was amazing and paired together on the fresh lavash and bread, the four of us ate them all, along with the little tray of olives and olive oil that come to the table while you're looking at the menu. We also ordered calamari. Fantastic. Served with two spreads that enhanced the flavors! They were chunky calamari pieces, but tender! By this time, we were all feeling full, so we skipped mains and went right to dessert! We had rice pudding. It did not disappoint! An incredible custardy texture that held its own on the spoon. Pleasantly flavored and not too sweet! I also had a Turkish coffee that had me wide eyed and ready for the rest of the evening! Truly delightful meal. The restaurant itself is so pleasant to be in. Our server (I wish I got his name). He offered lots of explanations and guidance when we asked what he thought. He did an excellent job moving us through the plates! We were not rushed at all and felt like we could have stayed (if our stomachs allowed us) longer to have more of the menu! We will absolutely be back! We thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening! Thank you!

I can't speak on how dinner is here, but for lunch? It's pretty good! Fortunately, it wasn't very…read morebusy when we visited. It's a beautiful spot to go overall though I would hate to come by when it's busy just because of how some of the seating can be quite close to others. They have a lunch course, which is what drew me to stopping by to begin with. 4 courses for lunch at $25? That's surprising, and a lot more food than I normally go for when grabbing lunch. You start with a choice of soup or salad, and they change it every day supposedly. I opted for soup since I haven't had a yogurt based soup before, and it was nice though you can taste the sourness of the yogurt. Then you can choose from the listed spreads, and my friends and I each chose a different one to try as much as possible... and they were all great! I liked the mutabbel the most out of all of them, a good smoky eggplant with some fried onions for more depth of flavor. The hummus was nice, though my heart has a favorite elsewhere so the one here didn't sway me. The htipiti though? Most flavorful of them all and feta forward. For the entree, I believe they give half of the amount they normally do for dinner, which makes sense, but it's all still filling nonetheless. I liked the adana kebab the most as the meat was tender and well seasoned. I was already way too full for dessert, and it had to be a rice pudding the day we visited for lunch, but I still ate it up all the same. It was creamy, not very sweet, though the pistachios were kind of stale. We had a good time, and I like that we were able to bring the spreads home because they were perfect to snack with afterwards. I'd love to stop by for lunch more often, but I'm not really in the area, so I guess I'll have to visit for dinner.

The signage out front is even confusing because I think you could still see "Wine Me Down" when I went a few weeks ago. I was looking for a wine bar and was excited when this place popped up in my search. I walked in and quickly realized it was more so a sports hookah lounge. So my review is based off the wine bar expectation. The wine selection was very limited and extremely overpriced for the quality of wine they were offering (Stella Rosa was on the menu, a glass for more than an entire bottle at the store). I only glanced at the food items but those seemed a tad expensive too. If you want to watch a game then I think this could be a good option! I just wish it was more clear what this place is and what the current name is so folks aren't misled.
