For $5, you get to taste 7 wines or ciders. Even better, you cans redeem that $5 on any purchases made. They have private tastings and events which are great for groups as well. Our fav is the Capriccio red wine. You’ll be amazed at what MI wines have to offer. Embrace the “lake effect”.

This restaurant is notorious is SOHA. Our fam honestly thinks it’s overrated but we’re food snobs so take it with a grain of salt. They’re known for their skewer of onion rings. My wife loves to take her girl friends to the bar section for their mimosa flight. Don’t judge!
