We had an absolutely wonderful lunch at Wine Sellar today; perfect in every way. Even the green salad was spectacular! My salmon was the best I've had recently, if not ever. Super crispy crust on top and beautifully flavored. Even the blanched or poached baby radishes were fabulous! My husband's duck confit was also excellent. The service here is always experienced and pleasant. This is truly a special place for lunch or dinner.
