Annex Winebar

Terrible.
I'm pretty sure the people giving this place high marks either work there or are friends.  Very rude service (we were told they don't do table service after being told to take a seat anywhere).  I gladly went to the bar to get us drinks when the bar 'lady' yelled last call in my face (at 9:30pm on a Saturday).  
Please people, go to a liquor store or Safeway, buy a bottle of wine (the same stuff they're selling here for twice as much) and enjoy it in the plaza for free.

How do I like The Annex?  Yoooowoooooo is what I sing when Mommy pulls into the parking lot!  A cool and quirky stop for wine tasting of  boutique, family-owned wineries, from sparkling to big cabs.  But my tail is still wagging.... beer, live music (thank goodness my little brother Moose doesn't dance, that would be embarrassing), and great food specials.   AND did I say shopping? Hand made leashes, collars and doggie beds made out of a wine barrel.  You can relax inside and watch sports, learn more about wine from the staff, or see Mommy beat Daddy at board games. Outside you can hang by the fireplace, sitting on wine barrel chairs. It's on a busy street, but no one seems to care.  Emily and her person, Margie, are super-sweet, I always get a treat.

Neither bar nor restaurant but something very awesome in between. Cozy intimate friendly welcoming place. Great unique wines and wonderful food. Music as well. A home away from home.
