The extensive food and wine menu is enhanced by the restaurant's delightful and sophisticated atmosphere, as well as the live music and weekly events, which include jazz, salsa, comedy and open mic.

It is closed this Monday night, not sure why. Anyway, I can still access the Abigail free public wifi from the classic black park bench just outside the door. Great place even when closed.

All-day menu extending from morning coffee and muffins to lunch and dinner small plates like asparagus-and-early-garlic soup, and panini filled with blue cheese, leeks, and pear. Read more

The whole menu is great. The mussels in cream sauce are incredible! They also don't judge you if you ask for more bread with that great sauce.

Staff Pick! Will (Membership): Though billed as a wine bar, they serve lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch. Delicious food and the bottle selection for wine is both extensive and reasonably priced.

Try the Smoked Mac N Cheese - so good. The flourless chocolate cake is fantastic, as is the apple crumble. Both are served with a perfect complement of creme fraiche.

This is where Jim McCray hangs out most often. He might even work there on occasion. If you see him, give him a swift punch in the groin, followed by a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Order the oxtail. So melt in your mouth that a profound sadness came over me once I had picked the bones clean.

Staff Pick! Katie (Curatorial): Little pricey for the quality, but if you want a slightly-nicer sit-down place, it works. They have a theme for every night, from salsa dancing to blindfolded dinners.

Staff is nice. Owner is great. Good live music and atmosphere. Food is good and wine is reasonably priced.

Pumpkin soup is amazing but only available in the fall. This place is outstanding and perfect for those wanting to support local and organic.

Best avoided. Absurdly slow service on a slow night, the waitress/hostess was unfamiliar with the menu, and they were out of nearly half the wines on their list.

Come out and hear me play this Thursday, February 11th from about 8pm to 10:30pm. That's a whole lot of me playing the guitar and serenading you.I do get a break in there somewhere. Read more

the live jazz is a nice touch but probably a deliberate distraction to a painfully slow kitchen.

Staff Pick! Kathy (Curatorial): Jazz brunch; keep a look out for their dark dining project it is so much fun.

Sorry. This place isn't that great. everything is about 40% more expensive than it should be, and the quality is pretty bad. Can't recommend.
Sean MannionNovember 14, 2009
Good food & coffee. Was disappointed in service until they offered a free round of mimosas.

Get the flourless chocolate cake! It's to die for!
