    Should be called "City Library"

    Went there with friends to see a Bob Dylan-type singer perform. The staff treated people like it was the symphony hall, not a restaurant/bar. People were literally not allowed to talk. If you made noise, you were scolded by the rude and obnoxious staff. Yeah, they should keep people from being obnoxiously loud, but if they're just having a conversation, that should be fine. There is not enough "good" about this place to make up for the overtly rude staff.

    Nice atmosphere, good food, terrible service

    The food and atmosphere in this private club/event space is actually quite pleasant. However, the service is so incompetent and brutally slow that you forget all the positives. I recently had a very casual dinner there with appetizer and entrees (no desserts). The meal took 2 hours including 25 minutes to get the check back after we first requested it. I've given the place 2 chances and each time the service has been poor. If management doesn't work to fix it the place will be history.

    A night when we couldn't stop smiling

    We had bought tickets for a Jeff Daniel's concernt, then read the subpar reviews of City Winery service, so we were a bit wary. However, a pleasant surprise awaited us in the form of solicitous staff, a great dessert, good wine and an outstanding show from an underrated treasure that is Jeff Daniels. We will be checking City Winery out again.

    Good food but poor service!

    I have to say that I was really excited about and completely disappointed in my experience. My husband and I went for wine and tapas a few weeks ago. The place is huge and looks like a great place for an after work happy hour. Pros - great wine list and some tasty food (the polenta coins were excellent). Cons - I think I am still shocked by how poor the service was. The attitude of the servers was astounding. One server literally threw our dessert onto the table (I think the couple 2 tables over actually jumped a little). When we tried to pay, the server returned and said our card had been declined. We politely asked her to run the card again (this is a card that cannot be declined), and she snapped that she had and demanded a different form of payment. We gave her another card, but were very suprised by the attitude. Upon returning home, we checked with the credit card company, who informed us that the card had been swiped once, but didn't get a proper read so the message "please swipe again" was sent.

    Don't go for lunch

    So i work in the area and wanted to check the place out for a while. There site lists a menu that i thought would apply for lunch but to my surprise only sandwhiches and wine was available. In addition to that you're not allowed to order cheese which make no sense because the fridge is right there. Cheese is only available during dinner. While the food was tasty the service was poor and the atmosphere was lacking. I think dinner would be a better experience but for now i can only speak about lunch.
