I got to say, I was really excited to find out that wink and nod was reopening under new ownership after closing in 2020. I would frequent wink and nod prior to 2020 and it never disappointed. I went a couple of weekends ago and I have to say that my old-fashioned (a basic cocktail) was pitiful and It was apparent that there was a lack of the basic fundamentals of how to make an old fashioned and it was definitely sitting for a while as the ice was melting by the time it got to the table. The ambience will make up for a situation like this but I do expect better results next time I go.
Edwin is an amazing server with great attention to detail. Was very knowledgeable on drink recommendations and knew when to come by and check in on us by gauging the vibes. The staff overall seemed really supportive of one another and felt like a well-oiled machine. The food was phenomenal. I highly recommend the arancini and the shrimp parmigiana. SO GOOD. 11/10 would visit again.
We recently got married and the owner was nothing but kind and generous! Not to mention the drinks themselves were absolutely delicious. The vibe fits perfectly in to the speakeasy theme and they even dimmed the lights once it got later in to the night. The music is great with Alt j playing to boost the environment they definitely look in to every detail. We cant wait to go back and want to thank the owner again I believe his name was Shawn for a beautiful time!
Great drinks. Food was delicious ok, a bit salty on entrees but the apps were solid. Overall recommend for atmosphere. Staff were great! I’d come back :) Vegetarian options: Some vegetarian options. Maybe 1 vegan option. Could use more variety in this aspect
I hate to write this review because I’ve had many great experiences at Wink & Nod. Unfortunately, last night’s experience left much to be desired: it took 20 minutes to find a server and another 20 to get our drinks. In fact, our food came before our drinks. This place isn’t cheap, and a certain level is service is expected.
Amazing night out. The atmosphere is absolutely perfect, down to the unique music. The cocktails and food were fantastic and different. Our server was so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. You absolutely must check this location out for a date night or special night out.
Jakob (so) is a talented, deeply knowledgeable bartender and also a cellist. Go have a drink with him, it's worth it.
