Absolutely wonderful. Every step of the way. We couldn’t pick our favorite course, and as we tried, we just ended up naming all of them.

Fantastic food and wine along with great service makes for an awesome evening every time we visit Wink. The 5-course chef's tasting menu is always phenomenal -- interesting combinations in each dish that provide wonderful smells, tastes and textures -- that are paired perfectly with unusual wines from all over the world. No wonder that Wink is our favorite restaurant in the city.

Impeccable food and service as always! We all had the five course menu, which was creative and unique but approachable and absolutely delicious. Everything was perfectly seasoned. The atmosphere was lively but still comfortable and intimate. Expensive but worth it- we had the loveliest time.

Perfect for my wife's birthday dinner. She loved the personalized menu with her name printed on it and signatures from the full staff (front of house, servers & kitchen). It was our first visit and we'll definitely be back -- likely for more special events.

We enjoyed fabulous wine over a 5 course chefs menu. It was fresh and unexpected. Our server Austin was knowledgeable and funny. This place is a true gem and showcases wonderfully locally grown ingredients. I felt like I was at a family members home, inviting and not presumptuous. I cannot wait to experience it again.

We were celebrating our anniversary and ordered the 5 course tasting menu with wine pairings. The staff here was amazing. We were greeted by a "Happy Anniversary" on the printed menu and the house comped our ordered glasses of prosecco. The food was really good, the wine pourings were very generous and the service was perfect.

We went for a birthday and they printed his name on the menu as well as offering one that was signed with a birthday greeting. Very nice touch! We did 5-course tasting menus with wine pairings, one regular and one pescatarian (they also offer vegan and vegetarian). Everything was amazing! It was such a lovely evening and a perfect place for a special occasion, but also felt homey and comfortable. I would get any of the items we tasted again so I’d be confident trying anything they have to offer!

Went for my Anniversary, told them before going when I booked the reservations and they put Happy Anniversary ON THE MENUS!! & even did some extra things with our meal. The 5 course meal was absolutely worth it with the wine pairing, BEST food I’ve ever had. Flavors were incredible with the wines, VINCENT was the best server as well as very knowledgeable. My fiancé is gluten free so they made sure to make everything accommodate for her. I recommend this to everyone, they have a wine bar across the restaurant and it’s every bit as amazing before or after your meal. The price is totally worth it, I can’t wait to come back!

Excellent cuisine, very high level. Offers a la carte and multiple course tasting menus. Just be prepared for the small portions. Dessert trio (creme brulee, lemon, chocolate cake) was amazing; possibly best tasting dessert in my memory. Deserves 5 star. Also a wine bar next door for burgers and snacks.

Had a wonderful experience with Austin as our waiter. Enjoyed an unworldly experience with excellent food paired with wine that was presented in such a unique way. Will be returning for special occasions AND recommending this place to friends and family. Wine bar across the alleyway also has a happy hour. Perfect atmosphere to start off the evening before dinner, or to have some dessert wine afterwards.

Outstanding food (we did the 5 course tasting menu + wine pairing). Service by Austin was very professional, yet engaging. He was very knowledgeable on the food and the wine. We had a 6pm seating and it was quiet, by the time we were served desert, the noise level had risen to moderate. First class venue for that special someone in your life!
