Great for fine wines
Good for special occasions
Great for creative cocktails

In our charming space, each day begins with stoves being lit, wine glasses being polished, and staff tasting wine. Here, we’ve cultivated a ripe passion for providing sustainable, eclectic farm-to-table fare and an unparalleled wine list that spans the globe. Our work with local farmers culminates in an abundance of seasonal dishes that are as much an expression of place as they are an immersive sensory experience. At 626, all are welcome, tradition is respected, and the novel is explored. Unwind, imbibe, and savor.

As ever, extraordinary food, beautifully prepared, attentive staff. The best plant- based menu anywhere, with offerings for those who like to add meat and seafood to the table. If I could give it 100 stars, I would.
