Weve been there twice now to listen to Jazz. We really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. They do have wine and cheese, but if you want something more substantial, it comes from their sister restaurant The Wooden Match, which is just across the parking lot. The Match is a cigar bar, so the food is much more in line with that than a wine and cheese bar. An assortment of large, decadent (and very good) sandwiches. There are a few salads, but the emphasis is on the gluttonous side. Not that this is bad, just letting you know what to expect. Also, since the food has to be delivered, service can be a bit casual if the place is busy--not necessarily a bad thing if you are there to listen to music.The building is an old train station, long and narrow. It is split into maybe 6 rooms. Most rooms have tables and chairs, but a few have couches. If youre there to see music or to be part of the buzz, you would want to be in the center room with the bar. Or pick one of the further rooms for a more laid back experience.The whole place is a bit unusual, but it really works.

We love the Artisan Wine a d Cheese Cellars. The staff is friendly and helpful. They usually have live music in the weekends, and the setting is historical and beautiful. It is handicap accessible. While they don’t have their own kitchen, you can order food off the Wooden Match’s menu. They do have meat and cheese plates that are made in house.

I went there for an event I was invited to. The place was nice but the bartender was very unprofessional. Someone spilled a drink by accident and I asked for a towel to clean it up. She told me I had to wait until one was available. 20 minutes later I asked if there was one I can just use myself she said there arent any that I would have to wait. 5 minutes later she comes over cleans it up and tells me to be careful next time. Its a bar with drinks and food.. Stuff happens. How are you a bartender and not know that? I definitely wouldnt recommend this place.

Ive been to the Artisan during regular business hours and for two events ( a birthday party and a high school reunion). Each time, the service and the food have been excellent. Though not vast, the wine and liquor options are well selected. And I love the charm of the building, the ample parking, and the option of stopping by the Wooden Match during the same visit. It always feels comfortable, no matter the day or time of week. I highly recommend it.

Good place for a drink. Live music and good wine selection. It can be a great place to go with a group because of the rooms which have couches or a large dining table.

This place is a gem! High vaulted ceilings, exposed brick walls, rich mahogany wood beams, barn-style doorways, exposed metal ductwork, and displays of abstract artwork give this cozy space a mixed vibe of rustic, barn house, and industrial. A talented local musician was playing tunes on his guitar, flute, and harmonica while showcasing an eclectic range of songs from classic rock to reggae. In the main area, theres a bar with seating and about 4-5 tables. Its small, but doesnt feel cramped. Upon peering down one side of the hallway, I saw a small lounge area with a couch and a formal dining area to accommodate large parties. In the other direction, there is additional seating with small bistro style tables as well as a spiral staircase that leads up to a small loft area with several leather armchairs. What a unique and adorable setup.As for their wine and cheese menu, it is quite limited. I was surprised that they didnt have a more extensive wine and cheese menu given that the theme of this establishment is wine and cheese. However, you are able to order from the Wooden Match menu, which is the establishment right across the adjoined shared parking lot. I got the brothel burger and my boyfriend got the Compton salad (yes, this girl gets the burger and the man gets the salad haha). My burger was a 10oz beef patty with crab cake, but the flavors of the crab cake got lost in my mouth. It was probably too much filler and not enough crab meat. However, my patty was cooked perfectly and I very much enjoyed my burger. The homemade chips that came on the side had a strong burnt aftertaste and were almost inedible. My boyfriend had no complaints on his salad. Also, the service was excellent.After the meal, we wandered around and ended up in the cozy loft area where we shared an intimate conversation over a glass of wine.
