Emily WilsonNovember 10, 2018Amazing wine and tons of fun. Menu changes all the time; Ruffian is doing things their way. But but but- if the cauliflower soup happens to be available, get it!
- Incredible selection of interesting wines from around the world, including Portugal, Hungry & Georgia. Talk to the friendly owners / sommeliers at the bar, and have your mind blown glass after glass.
Micah ChilesSeptember 28, 2018Great interesting wine list, tons from uncommon, old-world places - Georgia, Slovenia, etc. Knowledge, kind staff especially if there is a wait. Ventilation is poor - the back can be a bit smoky
Jessi SinghAugust 29, 2017A true gem of a place! They are truly hospitable, sharing way beyond their incredible wine and food offerings. I love that they are generous storytellers and that they engage genuinely with guests.
Nick LosiNovember 3, 2018Fantastic atmosphere, fun and authentic and patient somms, and a wine menu that challenges and rewards all do a disservice to describing just how much of a gem this spot is.
Amazing wine bar with an incredibly unique wine list. Ask the the bartenders for a recommendation!
AdrienApril 15, 2016I had the chance to stop by while they were cooking, the lamb pie and beef brisket pies smelled amazing. Wine list very sophisticated
Ina LiFebruary 21, 2016A great selection of wine with a continuing developing bar menu. Try the red wine Braucol! Friendly owners on service :)

Nicolette RomeroApril 16, 2016Cozy spot where you can watch them cook your meal right in front of you. Great wine selection! 🍷
- DoubleDeuceOctober 15, 2018Sit by the front so that you can enjoy the smells of the cooking but beware, your clothes will flavored (wonderfully!) too.
Steven YMay 17, 2016Amazing happy hour deal from 5-7PM - 5 appetizers for $5 each and an affordable selection of wines by the bottle as well

"Charcuterie plates are solid. The radishes with butter add a fresh crunch to the cheeses & meats you’ll order. The chicken liver mousse is fantastic but it’s plating makes it look unappetizing."

"Tomato tartine and a Pinot from beaune, perfection."

"Add ons (extra rich, spicy, tendon, extra beef) start at $2. A bowl of noodles can easily cost $20 but it’s worth it. Broth is flavorful. Wish they had more sides so I can enjoy more of their food!"
Heidi - 9.0
"Beautiful space and amazing herbaceous cocktails - just follow the menu and ask the tender for guidance. Only problem: hard to reproduce at your neighborhood bar."
Melissa Weiss - 8.6
