The Wine Program
Chef Michael Kramer's modern Italian restaurant sits on the second floor overlooking Falls Park. The wine program is strictly Italian and American, a perfect complement to handmade pastas and freshly shucked oysters. Italian selections span Piedmont (Barolo), Tuscany (Chianti, Brunello), Sicily, and Friuli, with American wines from Napa, Sonoma, and Oregon.
The Value
Past specials include Wednesday Night $22 Classic Italian entrée with a $22 paired bottle, a remarkable value for a restaurant of this caliber. Regular wine dinners (a recent one featured Monte Bernadi with a guest chef) add educational depth. The cocktail program uses artisanal Italian spirits. Entrées run $24 to $38.
Why Wild Card
A strictly Italian-and-American wine program is a deliberate constraint that pays off. The $22 pairing nights turn a polished second-floor restaurant into an accessible wine education. The combination of oyster bar, handmade pasta, and curated Italian wines is unique in Greenville.
🎲 The Bottom Line
Jianna pairs handmade pasta and a raw bar with a focused Italian-American wine list and $22 pairing nights. Overlooking Falls Park from the second floor, this is where restraint in the wine program creates a better experience.
