REVIEW | Ovest Cucina e Vineria

Ovest Cucina e Vineria, a cantina inspired Italian Kitchen has recently set roots in the ever growing King West District. With its wide pane windows, it definitely sparks interest to anyone walking by to take a peek inside to find out whats going on. Oh, and we forgot to mention, it's also a wine bar, meaning this might be the next go to place for anyone that wants to grab a drink during happy hour or on the weekend. 



While we think of most Italian restaurants as more rustic and homey, Ovest Cucina e Vineria gives a slight modern twist to Italian dining.



The interior of the restaurant accentuates clean lines and polished furnishings but incorporates that signature Italian home cooked feeling with a brick open kitchen concept.




As a wine bar, Ovest features their wide selection throughout the entire space whether it's a makeshift wall between dining areas or filling the floor to ceiling space with wine racks. It's definitely a great way to showcase their wine menu. If you need a suggestion, their house sommelier, Giammarco di Loreto is on site to give you the perfect pairing to your meal.



To celebrate their opening, we sampled a variety of appetizers and Italian classics and we were definitely impressed, especially as a few of the dishes supported the local culinary industry.
