Noticed this branch of California Vintage which was a lot bigger than their Central store. Overall was really well lit, had friendly staff, and was spacious and comfortable. It was also happy hour for oysters (half price) so we could not say no!Started off with a few oysters each, which were nice and fresh, not the juiciest, but given they were half price, pretty good value for money. Then got into some real food. Tried the mushroom and camembert bruschetta which was really nice with some carame
Started off with a few oysters each, which were nice and fresh, not the juiciest, but given they were half price, pretty good value for money.
Then got into some real food. Tried the mushroom and camembert bruschetta which was really nice with some caramelised onions in the middle. A really simple dish, but done real well. Perhaps a bit overpriced, but I guess you are paying a bit for the environment too.
Also got their mixed sliders, which were soft shelled crab, salmon, and minced beef patties. They were all quite good on their own, but also very small (even allowing that they were just sliders). They came with a few different sauces to sample, but none were good enough to write home about.
Overall experience was very pleasant though. Will be back to try out the scallop and avocado salad or their tacos. It is a nice place to feel like you are in the states or anywhere else with a more western vibe. And their wine tasting selection is huge!
