We are so happy that we did the experience was amazing. As we walked in we were quickly greeted by Anthony, who also was our server for the evening. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the menu. He was able to answer all of our questions that we had about the menu, we had a lot, and guide us through our dinner. We started the dinner off with some cocktails. My girlfriend order the Mockingbird which is their non alcoholic option and I ordered the Espresso martini. Both were fantastic and delicious. For food, we ordered the Heirloom Tomatoes, Pacific Tuna Crudo, Mussels, Sourdough bread, Branzino, and finished with dessert. Everything was delicious and obviously made with passion.This place is definitely on our list to visit again when we are back in the Phoenix area.

All of their dishes were well-thought and balanced- refined without overdoing it. Will be recommending to any/every foodie that goes to Phoenix.Shoutout to whoever insists on solely playing Khruangbin radio, too.

Prices have gone up drastically (many were under $30) and selection has changed to cater to upscale clientele of the restaurant. It was fun to take a chance on a bottle that you’ve never heard of, but not now that they are mostly all in the $45-$150 range. It’s a shame that this place has morphed from a chic, neighborhood natural wine shop to an overpriced wine cellar for a restaurant next store.

Hands down the best place to buy wine in Greater Phoenix!

My husband and I own a private chef business, so we buy a pretty decent amount of wine for our clients and ourselves. We travel all the way from the far Southeast Valley to shop at Montecito. Great prices, excellent and unique wines you can't find elsewhere, and an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable staff!
