Admittedly, I have not been, but 3-star Michelin rating brought lines a block long. The super hype has died down and there is an upgraded reservations system, so give it a try!

Cool little wine bar with awesome small plates located on the grounds of the Historic Old Naval Hospital. Not terribly cozy in the winter, I find it most enjoyable during warmer weather. Same chef as Rose's Luxury.
