Wintonaire

The Simon Graduate School of Business hosts happy hour events all over the city for its students to socialize and network with fellow students and locals what seems every two weeks.

This place has been the best place so far! We were greeted by the owner's mom who asked each of our names, and told us about her sons who own the place. After chatting with her for a while we met one of the sons who was working the bar and was an absolute sweeheart! And the libations were deeeelish!

I didnt have any food, but I plan on it. I live right around the corner so I will definately be back for lunch or dinner. I am not sure if it was a marketing scheme or what, but usually we are greeted by some surly, disinterested security officer! I would prefer mom any day!

Had a great experience! Thanks again Wintonaire!

Pros:
Homemade chips
Tasty Wintonaire Panini

AMAZING!

Helping friends move into the city, and had the luck of stopping at the Wintonaire for lunch.

First things first, since I can't wait to say it.  FRENCH ONION SOUP.

Look at the fact that I visited in summer, I'm not a huge fan of soup when eating out.  But......the scent wafting to my nostrils summoned...no, commanded me to have a bowl.  Wow, is the best way to sum it up.

Salty, but not overpowering salty broth, a nice sized piece of french bread in the bottom of the bowl, and the chewiest, gooiest, most delicious cap of cheese.

I then had a burger, which was delicious.

The waitress was AWESOME on Saturday afternoon, as well as the barmaid that greeted us immediately when we walked in.

An excellent visit, and will definitely be back again, and soon.

If I'm enjoying french onion soup in this weather, I can only imagine what it'd be like in the winter.  

Oh, I'm going to be back.....you betcha!
