Best Wine Bars in Prospect Heights

This was our second time dining here. We loved it just as much this time as we did before. The pastas are incredibly fresh (and not over sauced with heavy ingredients) and the pizzas have that perfect wood fired taste. But the highlight this time was the service. Our hostess said she could easily accommodate our request for a window table (of note, the window seats overlook Ground Zero and have breathtaking views) if we didn’t mind waiting 20 minutes at the bar. We did that and enjoyed 4 different wines between the 4 of us. We highly recommend the Barolo. The wait was definitely worth it because we were seated in the corner window table that felt spacious and had a fabulous view. Next we were introduced to our server Ronnie who was fabulous at helping us navigate the menu and made our overall experience top notch. Ronnie’s service was impeccable, always around when we were ready to order, but not hovering, and a fun personality as well. We highly recommend eating here next time you are downtown.

This place never disappoints! We hadn't been in a few years and it was still delicious as ever. Everything is incredibly fresh- we had a few oysters, my partner had the scallops- just perfectly seared, and I had the oxtail ragu- their handcut fresh pasta will haunt my dreams...

Fabulous food and the Chardonnay was superb! The staff was so helpful and anticipated everyone’s needs. They even brought my grand daughter into the kitchen for a little tour. Great experience, will be back again!

Cozy, warm, basic staple food but tasty and well prepared. The tagliata was a very pleasant surprise! Will def go again. Great selection of wine as well.

Lovely spot for a late-summer catch up with a good friend. Tasty food - love the small plates and cocktails. Attentive but not overbearing service. Good place to return to
