"Good Measure is a great new wine bar in Atwater Village, and it’s perfect if you’re looking for a low-key wine night in an environment that isn’t a total snooze. It’s owned by the Bar Covell people, so expect a massive wine list, tons of free pours, and bartenders who’ll probably teach you a thing or two. The food menu is also quite solid. Get the pork rillettes." - Brant Cox
"Although the pared-back design of Good Measure, an Atwater Village wine bar, leaves something to be desired, you're not here for the decor; rather, you're here for the pours. Sit at the bar, which overlooks the private tasting room, and prepare for an educational evening with one of the city’s top industry pros. The wine list is divided into colors (pink, white, and red) and then again by body—a helpful approach that makes things easy to decode." - Krista Simmons, Hugh Garvey
"This lovely neighborhood spot from wine vet Matthew Kaner has one of the strongest lists on the Eastside, with well-priced vintage bottles and an expansive glass list for those just dipping their toes. The food plays a good accompaniment too, with a great burger and a wide array of wine-friendly dishes that works for casual nights at the bar or sit-down dinners with a crew." - Matthew Kang, Farley Elliott, Crystal Coser
"Atwater Village’s Good Measure is doing an even more robust happy hour, running Sunday through Thursday and offering half-off beers and bar snacks, plus discounts on wine." - Farley Elliott
"Owner Matthew Kaner’s corner restaurant has expanded next door to take up kitchen duties for Village Tavern, a well-worn gastropub right on the Glendale Boulevard strip. They’re going to call the new place G by Good Measure, kind of like Marc by Marc Jacobs but for the Atwater restaurant world. Where Kaner’s Good Measure is a wine-focused evening destination with art on the walls and proper mood lighting." - Farley Elliott
