An Evening with Martha Stoumen
$55.00 per person

Mar 12, 2025 only
7:30 PM
In honor of women's history month, we're hosting Martha Stoumen, the visionary behind her eponymous Martha Stoumen Wines who blazed trails to redefine the art of natural wine. After years of apprenticing around the globe, she returned to California where she has been committed to sustainable farming and minimal intervention winemaking. She not only has produced exceptional wines which have been getting rave reviews, but has also championed a culture of patience and respect for nature. $55 per person includes three tastes of some of Martha's favorites—Vermentino, Nero d'Avola, and Benchmark Red, a co-ferment of red and white varietals— along with pizza and snacks from the kitchen. Enjoy a few bites and her delicious wines and maybe meet with Martha herself!

Terrific bistro with creative takes on the usual bistro offerings. Every dish we had was delicious and inventive. Great service. Fun cocktail offerings and wines by the glass. Waiter made great suggestions. We want to return to try more of the dishes especially the pizzas and pastas.

Our dishes turned out to be quite different than we had anticipated but all were very good. The restaurant is rather expensive and what always gets me is that they charge $6 for one slice of bread and butter. Service was good. However the sommelier tried to pass off wine whose vintage was different than what was listed on the menu. But it turned out to be a very nice wine. Noise levels varied, sometimes quite loud and then the noise would recede.

Two of us got the lamb dish. It was flavorful but mostly fat. We complained and chef sent us two new pieces, which was very nice, but again just a tiny morsel of meat amongst the fat. The third person ordered chicken and it was mostly bone and not a lot of meat. Unfortunately we were all disappointed. High Street was always good so we were surprised.

Delicious food and amazing service. They really had some cute Valentine’s Day specials. We had the Wagyu steak for two with a chopped brussels sprout salad and mashed cauliflower.

Scallops were flavorful and expertly prepared. Pasta is also delicious. The lemon olive oil cake is a treat.
