City Winery has a lot of potential right in the middle of downtown Boston between two major spots by the Garden and Faneuil Hall area. Because of this, parking is extremely limited and expensive.
I will start with the wine which was absolutely excellent. I had a Cabernet Sauvignon the was nice and strong, dark red, full body and typical flavor expected of this vintage. I also liked their menu, which made it pretty easy to choose the wine, based on what you were eating, so that you could pair them better, I felt that this was a great idea on their part.
I came to the City Winery for an event and had the Halibut which was good, but the side dishes were a bit cold. I am not sure if it was due to the event, that maybe the meals were prepared ahead of time, but overall the food was not bad, just a bit cold. The charcuterie at the start of the event was good too, nothing great or fancy, but I do feel that I would definitely come back, because the place looks amazing, very well decorated and has a very fun and romantic feel at the same time.
Service could have been a little bit better, but it is hard to measure this piece, when you are at an event.
All in all, I am definitely going to give this place another try when I am in the area. The place has a ton of potential and based on other reviews around the concert venue and other activities, it seems like a fun place.
