    Beefini Panini
    Hugh N.

    Decent food, on both Panini Chicken & Beef. The drink menu is really nice with many variety selections of wines and beers (some locals). Service is good -- Brandon is very friendly & good communicating since he seems to be the only person runs the show. It has a cool vibes with up-beat musics and dogs friendly. The parking situation is a bit tricky -- few spots reserved for the restaurant -- not sure where to park if these reserved parking are not available. We enjoyed out dining, just had a little trouble with the parking spot.

    Come for the excellent curated wine and beer list and find yourself staying for the warm convivial vibes and customer service. If you arrive a stranger you will definitely leave feeling like a regular. Love supporting a great local small business too. I highly recommend the chicken liver pate, but all the tapas here are yummy!

    Caesar salad

    We stopped by on a whim and had 2 pizzas, the Caesar salad and beers. Both pizzas we ordered, the Margherita and the Baci White Pizzas were amazing. Light crisp crust and very fresh toppings. Our server Brandon was very friendly and we had fun hanging out on the patio and listening to music. We will definitely be back!

    Just love it here. From the second you arrive Trish and Larry welcome you like family. The selection of wine and beer is vast. If the bottle is open... you can sample it. Today I did the Bruschetta. The Lox was fantastic. On Noble Bread with just the right amount of cream cheese/capers/dill. The apple and goat cheese and pepper were fantastic as well . 2 great wines to complete my visit. A must if you love a great place... good vibes and awesome Libations!!

    Came to the Greedy Hamster at about 8 on a Sunday night. There were only about 2 other parties eating at this time, and both was finishing up. I ordered the traditional 12' Pepperoni, bacon, and mushroom pizza. The pizza was good, especially for the price of 15$. My only issue with this visit was that it took 45 minutes to get my pizza, which seemed excessive considering i was the only customer with an order at the time. Greedy hamster has a cool atmosphere, the inside looks like a dive bar but also has outdoor seating as well.

    A wine bar, but not a fancy one. I came here for a date night and had a good time. I think I was expecting something upscale because it's a wine bar but it was very laidback, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's a very small and casual bar. My partner and I split a bottle of wine and ordered food. The hummus plate was delicious. The only con is the size of the place. It's very small so when the kitchen is in use it gets hot in there, we moved over to their lounge which had more space and better AC. The staff was friendly and helpful with their suggestions. I'll come back again.

    Amazing drinks, atmosphere and the best server/owner Brandon! Very chill hidden gem with phenomenal service and great environment. Highly recommend!

    Cozy lil place with a surprisingly diverse menu of food offerings. Wine and beer bar, liquor drinkers go elsewhere if you cannot enjoy a glass of wine of a cold beer. Nice shady outdoor patio and seating, accentuated nicely with lights. They have a larger room right across the path. They do beer clubs, wine clubs, and other events. Limited parking is one of the knocks on this place. And also hard to locate if you're unfamiliar, as the designated parking spots are behind the building around the back. What you can expect though that makes up for it is charm, friendly service from the bartender and cook, intimate setting, aesthetically pleasing atmosphere, and tons good food at good prices.

    Stopped in for Wednesday happy hour as my friend and I hadn't been here since the change in name/management. Service was great and Brandon was super friendly behind the bar. Tons of interesting and fun wines to pick from and beers both on tap and in cans to suit any preference. They have an awesome deal on Wednesday for a pitcher of beer and a pizza or bruschetta board for only $20. While the beer was delicious the pizza was just so so (my husband said the leftovers tasted like Dominos). For being made in a fancy looking little oven and having fresh dough/ingredients it honestly lacked much flavor. Still giving this place 5 stars as I came here for beer and just decided to try the food because of the special deal - I'll just order a small snack and skip the pizza next time. Great vibe here and I'm sure I'll be back.

GOOD! inspired by taco bell's baja blast hahahah). they TREATED us to all three of their current desserts on the menu. it was the most pleasant surprise i could've imagined. my favorite was the flourless chocolate cake! it was like a thick, rich brownie, had passion fruit cream to "lighten it up" and a caramel-like taffy on the bottom my brother and sister-in-law both said their favorite was the gulab jamun (which is basically like little fried dough balls/donuts, influenced by indian flavors and spices). the mille-feuille was also fantastic - the pastry was light and airy, cream wasn't too sweet and also very light, shaved cheese on top made it have a savory bite, and the jam alongside it was strawberry rhubarb. service is always amazing, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable; it seems like everybody working here truly enjoys it. quite literally already have a reservation booked at valentine and will be coming back here beforehand. update: came back for more drinks (fernet & coke, spaghett western, negroni) and their lamb flauta. all AMAZING! and amazing order to whet the appetite before dinner at valentine.

Regardless, we gave it another shot and we were much happier the next go around. Record players in the corner and a fireplace on the opposite side of this dimly lit bar created a cozy vibe on a chilly Saturday night. We arrived right at opening and the bar filled up quickly but the volume still made it easy to have a conversation and still have an intimate night out. The drinks, this time, well balanced and delicious. My wife had the the Pantera Rosa and I had the Last Word. Both were delicious and not overly sweet. I love a good "Last Word" but the tea added a welcome and subtle layer. A nicely created cocktail without shaming the original. Servers were attentive, constantly filling up water, and making sure we were well taken care of. We will be back!

Honestly, everything stood on its own without needing wine. The carrot dip, paired with a great selection of vegetables, was a refreshing way to start. As someone who loves sweet potatoes, the sweet potato with green harissa is a must-order. We'd never had chips with serrano ham before, but they were surprisingly addictive and disappeared fast. The highlights of the meal were the duck breast and the pissaladière (puff pastry with anchovies). The duck was tender and flavorful, and the pissaladière was a standout. Who knew anchovies on pastry could be that good? We ended with the ricotta cake with poached pears, which was light and not overly sweet. It reminded me more of European or Asian cheesecake than the dense, sugary American style. The ambiance is chic and thoughtful, with great use of color. Loved the details, from the tiles to the furniture to the typography. Service was excellent, and it felt like the founding team was actively running the place. The menu changes seasonally, which gives us a good reason to come back!

I got the chicken orzo along with the lime icebox cake for dessert, and both were absolutely amazingggg. The chicken orzo was phenomenal. The lemon flavor throughout the orzo was bright, fresh, and flavorful without being overpowering, and the tomatoes were the PERFECT addition because they balanced everything so well and added a little sweetness and freshness to the dish. But the chicken... wow. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside while still being super juicy and tender inside, which is honestly hard to do. Every component of the dish worked together perfectly. Magnificent is genuinely the best word for it. And the lime icebox cake was the perfect ending to the meal, refreshing, creamy, flavorful, and not too heavy after dinner. Honestly, I'm sitting here craving the food again just looking back at the pictures I took. This is definitely one of those restaurants that sticks in your mind long after you leave.
