Editorial Review for Enoteca Viansa – by Daniel Liszt
In Short
Sunlight dancing through picture windows and garlic-shaped hanging lamps brightens this hybrid marketplace and wine bar. Approximately 100 grape lovers can huddle at the white marble bar or on sofas as they sample vintages from the Viansa winery, one of the country's largest producers of Italian-style wines. Four food-pairing platters complement the vino--from a nuts and olives medley to cookies and truffles.

A perfect place to sip fabulous wines and chat with friends. (A good spot for a date as well). The atmosphere is sophisticated and modern. The staff was really helpful and knowledgeable. Most importantly, the wine was out of this world!!
Pros: good wine, nice atmosphere, great date place

Awesome place to meet for a first date, the staff is super knowledgable and ready to give a fun wine lesson on tuscan varietals and wine making, in a romantic atmosphere. You can even do some food pairing with some small plates, italian cheeses and charcuterie, and antipasti. A fun place to meet friends for the start of the evening, or to end up at the end of the night for a night cap of dessert wine and truffles.
Pros: smart staff, great food, cool music
Cons: maybe too smart, small portions, eclectic mixes
