They have a great bartender named `Sean`

Sean does make really amazing cocktails

psst... Antonio is making fried chicken! We'll have it for dinner tonight and tomorrow if it last that long.

Redwood is open. The bar opens at 4 and the dining room at 5:30. Happy hour from 4 to 7 in the bar.

I was in for a quick bar snack last week.

So, just to set expectations, the menu hasn't changed at all yet. Not that this is BAD - the food there before was fine and well executed, just not a draw if you're not in the area.

From what I originally heard, he was rolling out a new bar menu at the end of this month. However, since this promotion says "preview of the new bar menu", I wonder if that's been delayed a bit.

A new dinner menu was not expected until later in March.

We're going to put the majority of Antonio's new bar menu items on early next week and transition completely on March 13th. Dinner menu changes still slated for late March.

Does "access to" the wine tasting just mean entry to the building? The mention of "half-price on all wines" implies that the wines at the tasting aren't actually part of the ticket price. Is that the case?

Ditto for the preview of the bar menu, actually--are the small plates part of the $20?

The wine tasting is part of the ticket! 20 different wines will be available for you to sample. If you want a full glass, we will offer every wine on our by the glass list (over 15) at half price.

The food is included in the ticket! Some dishes will be passed, others available at stations in the bar & lounge.

It really is a great deal!

Hope this helps
