The Stem & Stein

I'm giving it 5 stars because: Ally and her sister (Jess?), behind the bar, ALWAYS remember my favorite wine. They are knowledgeable about wine and will special order a case of something that you like; they are locally owned, they (and the patrons) are honest. I accidentally left my purse there on a Friday night and when I called them upon opening on Saturday, they had it for me behind the bar to pick up, NOTHING was missing. Their large recently-installed back patio will be a nice place to hang out in the Spring.

I don't care for the food here, it's kind of reminiscent of a frat party menu (SORRY!!!!). I understand the young couple who own S&S have just sold (or will soon be selling) this place, so perhaps the food will improve. It has a super cool neighborhood vibe.

Check out Stem N Stein, if you're forgetful, don't use the purse hooks under the bar. ;-)

This place was cool.  Do NOT let the strip mall look fool you.  They have neat seating in the back, and live music on the weekend.  We didn't eat, but it smelled good.  The wine and beer selection is very good.   They regularly rotate the unique draft beers, so it's fun to taste new stuff on draft.  Very good place for a first date too.

What a place:) Enormous selection of wine and beer. Jess is the best! Remembers us and the wine we like and brings over the bottle. Wine tastings are wonderful and the live music is fantastic! We have listened to live music inside and out in the patio area and it was so good. Great places to go for a couple or just to anyone who wants to sit, sip on some wine, and listen to the music on a warm summer evening. Very friendly! Music is never too loud, just pleasant soft rock. You won't be disappointed!
