I couldn't find 6 bottles of our favorite McCormick Vodka (From Weston...shopping nearly local), so a nice gal working there climbed the ladder to look up top and didn't find a box there, so she went in the back and found one for us. She was amazing. I didn't catch her name, but look for the helpful Gen Z gal with the huge smile. She's amazing. THANK YOU!!

The entire evening took about 2.5 hours and we walked home with plenty of leftovers and they emailed us the recipes too. Highly recommend.

The pretzel was good though, and my daughter had fun!

We arrived a little before start time. A bar open shortly after 6:30 and the program began closer to 7 o'clock. The chef demonstrated what we were to do and then we were sent to our cooking stations to replicate the dinner was cooked in segments where we would cook , then eat a course then instruction, then back to cook. Chef Sergio was laid back and funny. He told stories and explained the reason behind processes. I noticed there were typographical errors in the recipe sheets handed out. Chef was aware of them but didn't seem to care. Sometimes he did not follow the recipe exactly, using an order different from the recipe which made it confusing when we were released to our stations to prepare. The class ran from 6:30-10:30. The staff was helpful and kind. We enjoyed the small breaks in the cooking segments. Two of the recipes were precooked. (Appetizer & dessert). You were allowed to take home all the leftovers. I can't wait to try these recipes out at home.

I was recently in town for a convention and happened into Cellar Rat the first day in town. While…read morewe were looking for wine and spirits, what we got was so much better! While sipping a taster of a great wine, we asked about restaurant recommendations that were not just BBQ, and Kevin took my information and sent over an extensive list of places all within walking or streetcar distance from Downtown. We were invited to come back later in the week for the Tuesday and/or Friday wine tastings. After gathering some work friends, we decided to attend both of those events, and they did not disappoint! I told everyone I met with about Cellar Rat and their personable staff. We will be back next year!

Lots of seating options: on the lawn, under a covered patio and inside. The bar area was huge and had whiskey, non alcoholic options and of course wine- theirs and international ones. Food menu had some great options. We bought a bottle of German wine (we didn't like any of their wines) and ordered the charcuterie board and the apple/sausage flatbread. The flatbread was delicious! The bread was soft and yet a bit crispy on the edges and the toppings were plentiful. The charcuterie board had plenty of cheeses, cold cuts, flatbread slices, vegetable salad (?) and dipping sauces. I was disappointed there were no olives though. We sat on the covered patio that had overhead heat lamps which helped to keep us warm. I loved the vibe there! All the servers were so friendly and everything was clean and well kept.

If you buy enough booze, you can get into the Grand Reserve Club where you can get access to allocated bottles and other cool perks, such as free classes with distillers and vintners.

As part of a birthday party, we joined some friends at Amigoni for the first stop, and we all loved the ambiance (stunning, calm, lovely staff) so much that we stayed over 3 hours! We sat in the back bar/barrel room area (back bar was closed that day), but it was a great space for a larger group to be able to spread out and not take up all the space in the front bar area. The barrels gave the room a cozy feel! I'm a fan of wine, but a lot of our friends are not huge wine drinkers--so while they have a lot of great wine to taste (I'll get to that soon!), they also have local drafts and non alcoholic options for your friends/family members who aren't into wine or who don't drink. For their wines, when I went on a Saturday they had two wine flight options, which the staff said they change about every two weeks! I got the basic flight to get a better idea of their standard wines, and I wasn't disappointed with any of them--and as others have noted, they are pretty heavy with their tasting pours, just FYI! I was able to try the Urban White Blend (chardonnay and viognier), Cabernet Franc Rose (one of their original makes from the early days), Sangiovese, Zinfandel, and the Select (petit verdot and tannat). All were lovely and delicious! Thanks to everyone at Amigoni Winery who made the birthday celebration special, cozy, and delightful! Can't wait to go back and enjoy more wines next time!

The space was in a pretty quiet street, across from a pretty non-descript office building. I wasn't expecting too much inside but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the interior had much more personality than the outside. The interior had high ceilings, the bar was on the left and before we sidled up to the bar we explored the space. There was an upstairs space that looked down into the lobby and the rear area had a bar and was also nicely decorated. The rear area had a little more people so we decided to go back up front. We decided to do both of the tasting options and share. I enjoyed the limited production tasting better and the reds over the whites. Like with a lot of tastings, the wine club was pushed but since I was only staying one more day I wasn't interested. However, our host did give us a taste of the T10 which I enjoyed so much that I bought a bottle of that. I shared it with some people who know and enjoy wine and they were also pleasantly surprised with it.
