I wandered in during a walk downtown and had an absolutely lovely meal. The food is delightful, thoroughly French, and artfully prepared. The drink selection is also quite impressive, and the staff is both knowledgeable and accommodating. I would highly recommend for a relaxed bite with friends, quiet nibble while reading a book, or quick escape after a long day at the office.
Phenomenal place to enjoy a European style “l’heure de l’apero” — go with a few friends, have a few snacks, and sip a few aperitifs while you decide where to go for dinner — or just realize your needs have been fully met after chilling here for three rounds!
I stopped in here while waiting for a friend to get off work. Got the Argumes Et Miel, which was very strong and delicious. Atmosphere was nice and it was pretty empty for a Wednesday afternoon, which seems to be par for the course for Raleigh. Will be back.
What a great place!! What a great spot to go and be with friends. Comfortable atmosphere. Excellent food. great service. Tal and Courtney are superb host for a our private party.
I am not sure why this place isn't busier, but glad it's flying under the radar because I don't want it to change one bit! Excellent bar staff who is always happy to make recommendations or stop for a chat, very interesting drinks selection especially ciders, and a huge vermouth selection. Have only ever had the deviled eggs, but they are a real treat. This is a real hidden gem in Raleigh.
Love the neighborhood vibe and friendly staff. Amazing selection of Vermouth. Opened a whole new world to me of a drink that I thought was just part of a Martini up until now. Great food.
Not cheap but no expensive. Good value. Only downside is that it tends to get crowded on weekends, but for good reason.
“Food & service were both excellent” -my fiancé
As I sit here finishing my glass of wine I can’t help but enjoy this awesome atmosphere and great music selection. We had cocktails, both fantastic. He loved his negroni and the Italian greyhound was perfect and so refreshing. Server was amazing. Just come in, take a seat, have some wine/cocktails/beer or all three and chat with your friends. That’s what this place is for and it is perfect for it.
Incredible vermouth selection, don’t know much about it, but the staff was very well informed and gave great recommendations. The meat and cheese board was AWESOME. Also great glass of wine :). All around very good. Will be back!
Their selection of Amari and Vermouth is incredible and the staff is super knowledgeable and helpful.
Just like the beautiful space the service here is warm, friendly, and inviting. A sneaky little spot to go ANY day of the week (except Monday's because they are closed). The meat & cheese boards are sure to please any charcuterie lover. Best of all this is a spot that brings a to beverage program DTRaleigh that wasn't being addressed anywhere else. All of the staff is very knowledgable (but Nikki is my favorite). They are all gifted at crafting tasty cocktails or just telling you about the latest wine they picked up. I have learned more about apertifs & vermouth here since they opened than all of my years bartending. I am grateful to have a spot to relax and unwind after work and stimulate my pallet with almost anyone. Cheers to a lovely location!
