  I think this might be one of my favourite wine bars! It was a Wednesday night so it wasn't busy - which I loved! In the city's west end is a small cozy wine bar, with about 8-10 tables and a large table for chef tastings.
  
  There was a nice selection of wines from all over the world. It wasn't you're typical French or Italian wine. I enjoyed that, we got to try out different wines from all over the world. After a few glasses of wine, we started to feel peckish so we ordered thyme fries - which were perfect. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, not too oily or greasy.
  
  I wish we got to try more food but the menu selection wasn't my absolute favourite. I wish there was more variety. I would most definitely come back here!
  
  Keep Eating,
  Angela

  Decent food and drinks. Terrible service. Could not understand why a service staff would try to kick me and my group friends out when we were still in the process of ordering more.
  
  Food was decent in which our group shared the duck parfait, Monk fish, beef cheeks, hen of the woods, and the mackerel collar special.
  
  Drinks I've opted for cocktails while my friends had wine. Cocktails were mehhh the better one was "The Harder they come" which had a nice depth to it as a booze forward cocktail. Pricing was quite step considering I had better at more refined places such as Le Swan for cheaper price point.
  
  Service was God awful. Condescending attitude at my friend for not pernouncing a wine a certain way or the fact that she tried to correct the way I said "BUMO V" when it's literally something I've drank before. (I've been to Pearl Morrissette and Burdock brewery.) Attention to detail lacked especially if you are coming off as a elitest but demonstrated a low understanding of how to take care of your guest. I was literally holding the menu waiting for her to ask if I wanted another drink while she went full on having a conversation with a individual working as a photographer for the restaurant. Server was standing less than a meter away so do I have to be rude and wave them down? I think not. Worse part was the fact that we reserved for a table of 4 and my other friend was just arriving. Server comes up to us to make it a point that they had a waitlist in the middle of our dining. I didn't know that we have a regulated dining time when I'm still ordering more items. I guess my money isn't good enough. Really sorry that I didn't order a bottle of wine to make the servers job easier. As a observant guest, I noticed that they don't exactly go around doing wine top ups either so I guess making a half decent cocktail is probably too much work for them.
  
  Ambiance was great though.
  
  Overall, come at your discretion. I will always make a point to help out a business. However, service was off putting and I will not step foot here ever again. Good day.

  The servers here are the worst.  Just non-stop making assumptions and rudeness because they want to get off their shift when it's not busy.  I work in the industry and couldn't help noticing just how clueless the staff are here.  After years of frequenting this place. I will not be going back.

  Imagine walking into a dimly lit room fully of loud chatter on a cold Saturday night. Bottles and bottles of wine lined an entire wall to your left, what looks like bookshelves full of more empty bottles of wine are at the back and menus w more wine choices are scribbled on chalk boards all over the place. I felt like a cozy den, but a den full of old and new world wines..... and I liked it. The seats along the benches on the left were mainly for pairs and there were small tables for groups of four or more gathered in the middle. That's what I remember from Mildfield wine bar.
  
  Wine. Surprisingly, their selection of wines was not robust. I guess I'm more of a Bordeaux girl, so I was slightly disappointed that they didn't have it listed on their menu. It was fun reading their descriptions and trying different wines. After trying a few glasses of their Greek, Spanish, Italian and French reds and still(!!) unable to find one that I really liked, I spoke w our server. She came back w a bottle of bordeaux from off the menu and we knew we had a winner. I guess I know what I like and tend to stick with it! Needless to say, after a couple glasses, we asked for the bottle and got the last one. Woohoooo.
  
  Food. Prior to coming here, I was actually looking forward to trying their Duck Heart Tartare. The warm brioche that came w the Tartare was amazing and the duck heart was Deliciousss as well. Tasted like steak tartare but w stronger flavours. Wasn't too chewy (like chicken heart could be) and wasn't gamey. I liked it.
  Cheese and charcuterie was good as well. Choose your own based on their list on the chalkboard. I liked the Sauvagine and Finocchiona. :D
  
  Anyway, my review for this place is that our server was pretty nice and accommodating. The place is a bit loud because it was kind of crowded, but its probably the same anywhere on a Saturday night. Selection of wines was okay. Not a lot of vintages. Food was tasty but menu is small. Resos are recommended.

  I came here on the Sunday night of the long weekend and it was relatively busy. It's extremely dim upon entering, which gave the place a really intimate feel. We sat on the patio, which was pretty spacious given the size of the place. We went solely for some drinks, and ordered a bottle of wine. I couldn't believe how knowledgeable the staff was about the wine. I was so impressed at the level of the detail in their ability to distinguish between the different kinds. We ended up ordering a white wine - the 2016 Am Berg, Bernhard Ott - which was recommended to us. It exceeded all of our expectations. It was refreshing and in some ways, comparable to a Riesling. I really enjoyed this place - loved our server as well. Great little date night spot for sure.
