The Warbler

For “the Foodie” - wine and beer pairings with a high-end, artistic menu. Located Off the beating path. Great date place. Michelin Star Rated. You need to “find it,” not a fancy off street location, but a real hidden gem if you’re up for a different menu and experience.

Always packed. No reservations taken. Prepare to go early and put your name in for at least 60-90 minutes wait, or grab an app and a drink at Grassroots a few doors down. Dark, candlelit and loud. Romantic date with place or food for a nice group dinner. Argentina’s Steak... “Bife Vesuvio” is the BEST!!
