Wed-Sat, sit at the bar and ask for bartender JOY. She's a GAS!\nGreat spot for a late-afternoon glass of wine with an appetizer. Mostly poor execution from kitchen, excellent service.\n\n--hummus appetizer with sample of olives is great choice\n--crispy plantains with pepper are tasty and fun, crab dipping sauce, not enough crab\n--tuna salad with arugula, uninteresting\n--side salad for ciabatta \""sandwich\"" typical Dole bag mix (first visit) was WILTED and nasty. Shame!\n--chicken salad with dried tomatoes and goat cheese; way too much cheese\n\nNow, to Joy. She's a keeper. First visit, we struggled with the proper preparation of a Sapphire martini, but it was primarily the fault of our server's communication skills. Working with machine-made ice (you know, the stuff with all the flecks and shards that water down a proper martini), she primed the ice with a squeeze of lemon, drained, then prepped the glass with vermouth, in and out, then pour the STIRRED Sapphire in, drop twist! Congrats, my lady.\n\nIf you can get past the chick-chosen wallpaper (wrong) and perfect-sphere fake tabletop plants from restoration, the different-height tables mix up the room just right and make it feels shabby chic without the white.\n\nSay hi to Joy. =)
