Menus
We serve dinner seven days a week,
lunch Monday - Friday, and brunch Saturday - Sunday.
Wine enthusiasts will notice right away that there’s something special about our beverage menu.
Our wines are carefully curated to create a mix of light to heavy-bodied, from Italy, America, France and elsewhere. We work hard at finding delicious bottles, some of which you’ll find for five times the cost on The Strip. We like to say we’re democratizing wine drinking.
All glasses on our list are $10-11, all bottles $40-44. Beers range $4-up and cocktails are $12.
At lunch 11-3 p.m. weekdays, we have select red, white and rose wines for $5 each and cocktails are $8.
We also offer a reserve list of specially selected wines that are priced above $45. These are all hand selected, very special bottles offering remarkable value to our guests.
