Riverview Wine Bar

As an anti-connoisseur of fine wine--not to be confused to think I'm not a super-consumer of it--I was very impressed with the sommelier-ish staff and their picks for me. Somehow, they interpreted the sophisticated wine descriptions I spouted off--"berry-ish," "grape-ish," makes my lips pucker like *this,*" and "light can't shine through it" was correctly translated to an Amerone--and came up with some superb recommendations.

Couple that with a nice bright neighborhood feel, slick jazz, and decent bites, I was perfectly happy sinking half my paycheck for what must have been almost two bottles-worth of wine I imbibed.

Honors for great service.

If you couldn't tell by the photo posts that I love the place, well then look at the photos posted cause I love this place. Great service, great food, a variety of wines and beers, and a perfect destination for a dinner and a movie (at the riverview theather for $2-$3 movies). Just can't get enough of this place! PLUS they are open on Tuesday now !!!!  Score!!!

A friend and I meet @ Riverview all the time.  They have a nice variety of wine and some tasty eats--all served up in a comfortable, casual atmosphere.  I loooove the fig pizza--amazing!  Plus the staff is personable & attentive.

While I have only been here with friends, I think it could also be a romantic date place too.  I should try that but I always leave the boy at home.  Maybe next time...
