But the food was delicious and really fresh. It tasted like it was cooked here. We had the shrimp appetizer and the Sicilian pizza and they were both delicious. The pizza had really good crust, yummy sauce, artichokes, red onions, and pepperoni. I was so impressed with the food when it's clearly a winery. I got a non-alcoholic sangria and it had a wine flavored aftertaste. So I didn't like it, but I don't drink alcohol. It was better with a little sprite added. So no mocktails, but food is worth it if you don't drink. Service was very attentive and friendly. Cute ambiance with a modern, clean look.

How you serving collard greens with turkey tails and no cornbread? Also given they are a "winery", I found the copied and poorly cut paper in a leather binder as a wine list laughable and limited. The decor and vibe were giving along with the chicken. However, since I like to drink when I eat not likely to have a repeat visit.

Since we were a fairly large party we were seated right in front, so I only had a glance of the remaining tables. Our server Imani was Fantastic! She was very attentive, friendly and warm. She made us feel welcomed and treated us as though we were regulars. As a matter of fact All the staff treated us like family. I only took photos of my plate however everything look appetizing and delicious. The falafel was good, however even better with the sauce on the bottom. We also had hummus with fried chickpeas on top...nice crunch. The salad was delightful (maybe a touch more dressing) loved the pop of pomegranate. I ordered the Salmon (though some of my broccoli was a bit over charred) was delicious. For dessert we all had the crème brûlée. All in all, everything was executed perfectly, appealing to the eyes, very flavorful and scrumptious. We were so impressed we asked to talk with the chef!

Good food, great desserts, wonderful service, and modern, rather charmless ambiance…read more I have had the occasion to visit this restaurant a few times for post-conference dinners and have also dined here both solo and with friends. The fried halloumi and the goat cheese flatbread are my favourite items on the menu, and there are a plethora of vegetarian options to choose from. The desserts in particular deserve a shoutout. Service is always very warm and I always feel well looked after. The ambiance is super "classy", but the overall effect is a bit charmless. I will return to Bar David, just because I am in the neighbourhood and it is convenient for work-related purposes, but would likely not return in a hurry if I move. If you are already in the neighbourhood or are visiting the university, Bar David is a great option, and you are sure to enjoy the food and service.

One of the best meals we had in Chicago. Excellent all around…read more The arancini were rich but also somehow light, the gnocchi were pillowy and soft. The gelato was creamy and delicious. Service was attentive but not smothering. (And as a vegetarian, I was glad to see they even marked their desert menu with dietary notations. It really increases my trust that a restaurant is run by people who know what they're doing when they know pana cotta isn't vegetarian.)

They light a new candle on your table and it was fun guessing how many hours it takes for the candle to melt all the way down. We came during dinner time and sat inside. We shared the Arancini, usually comes in 3 and they made 4 for us, since there were 4 of us. Very delicious and we all just took our time savoring the flavor. So good and it is also GF made with rice flour. Next I had the Umbricelli con Sugo d'Anatra. House made spaghetti with duck meat. Noodles were firm and didn't twirl on the fork easily. But it was really good. There were plenty of duck meat shredded and chunks. The cherry tomatoes were a bit tart to me, so I didn't eat them all. For dessert we shared the Tortino al Cioccolato Valhrona, like a chocolate lava cake. Very soft and rich chocolate. Had orange pieces throughout. Came with coffee gelato. Also shared the Vanilla bean panna cotta. Smooth creamy and light, reminds me of crème brulee. Had lots of cherries with crumbles of cookies. Both desserts are GF. I actually like the chocolate more... couldn't resist. They cleanup and give you a new plate and or silverware after each course. They are very good at keeping your glass of water refilled. Very friendly staff.

Reviews were good so we came in on a Monday evening. The interior is so cute! Velvety comfy green chairs at the wine bar, smaller lounge tables and couches in the rest of the place. There is a separate room for gaming. We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted by Aria L. She was so courteous and helpful, offering us suggestions on the wines and snacks. They have a great happy hour from 4-7p for $20 wine bottle which is fantastic. The house white was good, although they ran out after a glass and I went for the Simi sauvignon blanc which was so good. The parmesan truffle fries are a MUST. Just $8.99 for a nice sized bowl of crisp, tasty fries with fresh parmesan shaved on top. MM! I had the 12" cheese lovers pizza which had burrata cheese on top oh my GOSH that is gooooood. It's rich so I had plenty of leftovers for the next day. My friend got the 12" Diavola pizza which she loved. My other friend got the Italian panini ($13.99) which he said he was not that crazy about, but he did enjoy the atmosphere and the Guiness. It is a chill place to have a nice conversation without having to compete with loud music or chatter. We are planning to revisit the next time I am here, this was a very enjoyable evening.

I…read morespecifically gave the address and specific department and even called the day before to verify all the information I gave. They still couldn't get it right. Hours went by without the flowers being found. I had to call several departments speaking to different people just to locate the flowers myself and then beg a facility receptionist to help. They ended up calling maintenance to drive a cart to take it to the right department which was an entire block away. This flower shop also needs to keep Joann away from new clients. At first, she comes across friendly but that wears off very quickly. She gets extremely rude, sarcastic and impatient. When I called the day before my delivery to confirm the details, she picked up very annoyed and ran me off the phone saying "I have it all down correct now stop calling!" Aside from the terrible customer service, I wouldn't have felt the need to write a negative review if they had just dropped off the flowers where I asked and tried to confirm several times. Nice flowers - terrible experience.
