If you are looking to "wine" down this is the place to go! Hello Vino has a relaxing, cozy atmosphere and a great selection of wine. They offer other signature cocktails and delicious food! They do tend to fill up quickly during the busy summer weekends, so call a head of time to see if they can accommodate your group.
