    Sweet new spot in Lauraville, just north of the Safeway on Harford Roas. The Den's main vibe is cocktail bar, though beer and wine are available as well. The location is the former home of Wilson's Tavern and has been nicely renovated. The house cocktail menu is interesting and accessible. I'm not generally a mixed drink aficionado but found several nice choices. I ultimately had a St. Patrick's Day special called "Kiss Me I'm Irish" which was un-effin-believable. Vanilla vodka, Creme de Menthe, Irish Cream, and chocolate. Holy crap. No food service yet, but you are currently welcome to bring your own food. Service was as awesome as the drink from owner/bartender Mike and his assistant. Can't wait to return!!!!

    Such a vibe! Pulled up with my male friend and we had the BEST time. Mike Jones (lol) is literally the best bartender on this side of town--hands down. His energy, customer service, and drink game? Top tier. The vibes were unmatched from start to finish. We'll definitely be back. Love it there!

I'm not actually sure but the cocktails are good. I think the vibes when I went was off. Granted I did go on a weekday where it was pretty empty. I did really appreciate that they were chips of ice in the cocktail, cause it was a really hot day, so I made sure that the drink stayed really cold and delicious. Water is self service. They shift their menu a lot which I think is really nice for the community. The cocktails are on the pricier side they think they start around 14 or 16 which I think is a little too much for a local neighborhood bar.

The vibes are right and the bartenders were nice and chatty, the only reason this place isnt "my" place and doesn't get 5 stars is because they dont make a very good dirty martini and thats like base level. I asked for it extra dirty and I could barely taste the olive brine, I actually had to have him pour more in front of me lol. Also service was a little slow. So for grabbing a quick drink with the girls sure, but staying as a regular nah.

I really liked the vibe of the space. The breeze under the pavilion was the perfect accompaniment to the evening, and there was plenty of seating. I did feel like the food portions were a little small for the price, but I enjoyed the chicken and potatoes. I also wish more of the wine selection was available by the glass instead of only the specialty wines by the bottle because we ended up choosing from the house wine options. I did have a glass of sparkling wine, which was really good. I'm planning to come back with a friend to give it another try.

He told us a little history of the wine bar and gave great recommendations for drinks and food. I ordered a whisky sour and for food we had potatoes, beats and a delicious slaw. It was a great experience. If you are looking for a chill relaxing wine bar then Fadensonnen is the place for you. I really liked that they not only served wine but also cocktails and beer. I will definitely be back soon. Cheers!

The food was great, portions SMALL. Prices above average our total was over $100 and we don't drink alcohol and just 2 of us. Appetizer, 2 entrees and 1 soda 1 juice. It's a splurge and I wish it didn't cost so much. Waiter could've been more attentive by checking on us - I still tipped 15% a small ding for calling her over twice and no one else was seated. Maybe they had a rush after 8pm ? No live music no customers came while we ate. Hidden expensive gem for a Saturday.

I made a reservation because I expected it to be crowded. We had to wait a few mins for someone to come and seat us. Upon seating, we were notified they were out of several items. There was 1 bartender & 1 waiter for the entire restaurant. The decor and music was really nice. We ordered drinks, they later said they were out of the non-alcoholic sangria, but we got another drink. The drinks were ok, there was an interesting taste to the lemon drop martini that I couldn't put my finger on. We had to flag the waiter for several things (napkins, plates, forks). He was nice but overwhelmed being the only person for all the tables. The Thai chili wings were amazing but there weren't many wings for $13. We both ordered the catfish meal. The catfish was delish, the greens were ok (needed more salt & vinegar but hot sauce helped). The yams were really good. The macaroni and cheese was not good at all. It had no flavor and no cream/roux. It was literally just melted cheese and noodles. The jazz night was just a solo sax player (she played a few great songs) but I was expecting maybe 2 or more musicians. I will not be returning.

My friends suggested that we dine here for restaurant week which was a sweet idea. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by the friendly hostess who took us to our seats. Then our waiter explained the menu and gave us some time to decided what menu we wanted to order from (Restaurant week brunch menu or regular menu). We chose the brunch menu. For the brunch menu we were able to choose a appetizer, entree, and a dessert for $35.00. Not too bad. For drinks I ordered PIRATE PRINCESS which was Ron del Barrilito 2 Star Puerto Rican rum, passionfruit, miso honey, lime, and togarash. It was a perfect balance of sweetness and a little bitterness. For food we ordered the shrimp and corn patties, and the pan roasted salmon. The shrimp and corn patties were delicious. It was packed with multiple flavors and it was seasoned really well. The pan roasted salmon was cooked to perfection. It was flaky, and seasoned very well. It came with Ramen noodles that I thought were going to be temperature hot however, they came room temperature which was fine. They were seasoned very well. The ambiance was very nice. It gave like 1950's/ 1970's vibe. Old marble tables, antique pictures on the walls. It seemed like the building use to be a house prior to it becoming a restaurant. It was a great time. If you are in the Hampden area I recommend giving this restaurant a try. I am looking forward to visiting again for dinner. Cheers!!

I tried a glass of the 2024 Karl Josef Piesporter, and it was sweet without being overwhelming. It has a laid back vibe, so there's no rush to leave. It's a great place to sit and chat for a while. They're dog friendly, though I will say the dog next to us got a little active with their friend, which was a bit distracting. Overall, it still had a quaint atmosphere. The service was on the slower side, but we weren't in a rush. Just keep that in mind if you're looking for a quicker stop because this spot might not be your best pick.

And I would say it was a bad start...now to give them a little credit the wine was good and we also received a free shot from the bartender. But other than that it was downhill. Now my man had already paid for brunch which we were completely disappointed because when I tell you it was bare!?! I've never seen a "brunch" that didn't come with pancakes, French toast, some type of meat to choose from etc. This buffet "brunch" had quiche, soupy shrimp and grits, smoked salmon, bagels, and Caesar salad. Are you serious!? If he didn't get the discounted tickets it would have costs $40/pp!? Then on top of that they add 20% gratuity and the bill came out the over $90!!! And this is with (2) glasses of wine and one cocktail he got. Now he didn't show me the check but how in the hell is that work $90!?! So I don't know if they charged us for the "free" shot!?! The restaurant inside was pretty nice and put together for a small venue size. The outdoor area was set up nicely to be shaded from the sun and see and feel the water and people watch. But it's a hell no for me...too overpriced and the buffet was trash.

    So this place was recently bought out. Just a few notes: the menu has changed, for the worse…read moreIMO-not based on the food flavors, more the choices. The place looks like it changed its model from restaurant to bar food & pizzeria menu. The old place had a chef picking items from the garden and changed its menus daily. I am sad about that. One look at the front page of their menu tells me we are eating from the delivery truck with dressed plates. But keep in mind they are using a different work model which may work better on my wallet. Other points; I also noticed their liquor store is expanding so this may be a welcomed addition/place for them to make their money. They are open on Sunday for takeaways. Finally, nothing has changed as yet about their beers on tap. They offer a good variety of beers, from tap to bottle or can. I am interested to see if the clientele change for the better.?.

The place was ready for us, when we said we would be there a little early. And our waiter, Manny (I think he's the only waiter), did his thing again. He brought out a really good mixed drink for my friend, which she really enjoyed. And he bougied up some sprites for my other two friends, which made them feel nice and fancy. I enjoyed my appetizer sampler. I'm not crazy about Pretzles - but this pretzel was fresh and sooooo delicious! Like a soft cloud, I just had to share. The shrimp tempura was also very good. It was a good choice for me. I was pretty comfortable after that, so I got some chicken wings for my main course, with more Thai chili sauce. The wings were really really good, though I'm not a drum stick fan. If I could go back and just have flats I would. But they were finger-licking good. The music from the bar next door wasn't too loud, as I remember last time. Everyone enjoyed their appetizers (got another believer in the Brussels sprouts, the soup was still faithful, and the tater tots made you wanna slap somebody's mama). I appreciate that everything always comes out hot at Reds. No one is getting anything cold unless that's how it's served! Really pretty and chill vibe to the place too. You can dress formal, or be dressy casual, or just plain. You'll never feel like you don't belong there. Just a good place to be. Always enjoy it there.
