    Great place to eat and hang out with friends. The wine machines are amazing. Love the atmosphere. The owner is super friendly and fun to visit with.

    Forget the typical date night, check out the Lemur and surprise that special someone in your life! My wife admitted to me that she would have dumped me if it wasn’t for our first date here. The food is diverse - seafood from North Dakota’s many oceans, Napa Valley wines from ND’s many Napa Valleys, and exotic dishes from ND’s many jungles. Exotic fruit-infused-water on tap will take your taste buds over the edge. Entertainment that you usually only see at the Fargodome. You just can’t go wrong!

    I do not recommend this lemur. The atmosphere is terrible, the waiters are slow, the food is not tasty, the prices are disproportionately high for such bad service.

    Great standard menu and very exciting South American temporary menu. The self service wine dispensers are easy to use and lets you play around with trying many wines.

    This wine bar with a rather extensive menu was a gem to find in downtown Bismarck. My dining partner and I sampled several different wines and made our own "flights" using their card system to keep track of what we enjoyed. We had a delicious flatbread and a salmon bowl - which was excellent. The latter came with a side salad which was not really needed. The prices are very reasonable, and the place has a cool vibe. We will definitely come back.
