Schwa

I think 2 stars is being generous but how can you give only 1 star to place that is supposed to have such an amazing reputation?
I really didnt want to write this review, but since I haven’t been successful with contacting Michael Carlson via phone, I hoped this might reach him because he needs to know about the «joke» of an experience I had at his restaurant. Someone needs to be held accountable. This is your reputation Michael.
My 6 friends and I had a 9pm reservation. A little later than I would usually want, but for such a popular place it was all we could get. We get there at 8:55, and are told very apologetically that our table is not ready yet. The gentleman asks that we give them 25 mins. He suggests a bar around the corner. We gladly go, knowing its a Saturday night… whatever. We come back 30 mins later. Table is still not ready. Well theres nowhere to stand in the restaurant so we stand outside for another 30 mins in the 10 degree weather. I notice the table is done. We see the people leave. But nobody is working to bus the table. I mean, if I knew I had a table of 6 diners who’ve been waiting an hour past their reservation I would be hustling my butt to make sure they get sat as soon as possible. So I walk in and stand by the table. Finally someone starts to bus it.
This is getting long so Im going to try and cut to the chase. We sit down and dont receive our first course for 45 mins, which isnt even food… its Bourbon… 20 or 30 mins later finally the food starts coming out. We took pictures of every dish that we received. It was supposed to be a 9 course meal, but in the end… at 2am!!! We realize we’ve only received 5 courses. 6 if you include the bourbon.
On my way to the bathroom, Im confronted by the kitchen who apologizes for the night. I talked very candidly with them and talked about the reputation we expected. They again apologized and said «Thats why we have discounted your bill.» Well, they gave us 15% off. 15%!!! When we only received 50% of our meal. Grant it… it was 2am. Everyone was tired. But obviously they were having issues if we didnt get sat till 1 hour after or reso and food didnt drop until 1 hour after seating… horrible. I would expect such things to occur at Olive garden. But not at a place with the reputation as this. Very disappointed… unbeleivably disappointed!

Went here with my boyfriend back in June. It was amazing. We were definitely the youngest people in the restaurant and the chefs made sure we had some fun! They took shots with us and brought us different alcohol to fit each tasting.

As much as I eat at Chicago restaurants, I should be writing more reviews. After visiting Schwa last night I am compelled to write a review. Having read both positives and negative about this place, I frankly had no expectation. All I knew was that one way or the other, this would an interesting experience. And it surely was. and some. The front of the restaurant is non-​descript, dark. Almost as if it is a shutterred place. But once in you are transported to a different world. Funky, gritty, groovy. U pick your adjective. The focus is the food and it was delectable. Each course was well thought out, inventive, clever and ultimately delicious. That grape jelly dish mid course is still lingering on my taste buds. This was a Michelin star experience without the fuss and if I may say pretension. A special word about the servers because I had read mixed things about this aspect. One word to describe my experience with them: delightful. It was one of the most memorable and interactive dining experiences I have had in a while. Each one of them had different personalities but they were all welcoming, funny, warm, playful. And as long as you had a good attitude they obliged. And if you wanted to be left alone that was fine too. So a big shout out to the team at Schwa. You are all fantastic! I did not get the names of most of them but one-​Josh: Rock on brother!
We are lucky to have a restaurant of this caliber in Chicago. I wish them all the best. And I cannot wait to return.

This was my first Michelin star dinning experience, yet definitely the worst dinning experience I’ve ever had. The music was too loud, the service was so-​so, but I will say the food was great. I read reviews before attending, and knew what to expect (for the most part) but what happened after dinner is not something I wish on anyone.
After dinner, I accidentally left my iPhone on the table. Of course I realized this after I already hopped in a cab with my husband, so we instantly called my number when our waiter answered my phone. He said, «yes, it’s here. We have it. We will keep it here for you until you get back.» So the cab spun right around and less than 5 minutes later we were there. When we walked in, we asked about my phone, but no one seemed to know what I was talking about. I then asked our waiter who said, «it was right here! It must have gotten lost!» Mind you he seemed like he was under the influence of drugs the entire time he was serving us. So my husband and I searched the entire restaurant top to bottom, including the back kitchen. My phone was never to be found. Needless to say, I was devastated and will never return to this restaurant or recommend it to anyone.

The food was beyond perfection. The quail egg ravioli was my personal favorite. All of the chefs were friendly, personable, and professional. Joshua took great care of us! Would absolutely recommend!

Definitely one of my most memorable dining experiences ever. Never have I been treated so casually at what was supposed to be a «fine dining» restaurant and I totally loved it. It felt like I had known these guys for years. The chefs were all personable and fun to be around and clearly have similar music tastes as I do.
I truly did not enjoy 7 out of my 9 courses, but I am totally alright with that! While the flavors didn’t line up with my personal palette — I was impressed by the level of creativity exemplified in each dish and I would GLADLY return to see what else they’re going to come up with next!
If you don’t like the food, that doesn’t mean the restaurant isn’t good… it just means this particular menu, this time around, wasn’t for you! It’s very obvious these people can whip up innovate dishes, so you gotta be willing to try new (slightly bizarre) things.
I’m down with this spot — last Saturday was my first time coming and I’ll absolutely be back.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Not that Schwa needs yet another 5 star rating, but I’m adding it anyway. Hands down, one of the best meals I’ve had in Chicago and THE best combination of mind-​blowing food with a relaxed and fun atmosphere. The total package. Chicago has no shortage of fine dining, «molecular gastronomy», top quality chefs (Next, Goosefoot, Alinea, and on and on). But Schwa is the one place where you can go and experience one of these meals without the stiff atmosphere. You don’t have to be on your best behavior. You don’t have to dress up in an uncomfortable outfit. You go as you are, you get to act normal, and you will have a fun interaction with the chefs while having your taste buds dance the entire night long.
Because the items are so unique and creative, I’m not posting pictures or describing individual dishes. Half the fun of a place like this is knowing that whatever you are served will be phenomenal and going in with no expectations so each item can be a surprise. Also, the pictures just don’t do the meal justice. If you have food restrictions or allergies, let them know when you come in and they will accommodate you. But don’t limit yourself if there are foods you just don’t like. Be open to as much as you can. The one thing I like about Schwa that is different from other restaurants in this class (like Next), is that they don’t use so many ingredients that you’ve never heard of or that you did not know were edible just to show you what they can do. They use more familiar items and ingredients to make the best possible and most unique version of something you may have had. For example, their version of a fish fry? Something I could not even comprehend — there were combinations of complex flavors that I’ve never had and were amazing… and also a familiar taste that took me back to my childhood days of eating at Captain D’s. How is that possible? By pure genius. This underlying feeling of comfort with each dish just enhances the overall relaxed atmosphere that Schwa provides.
So here’s the deal for Schwa — yes it’s very hard to get a reservation. But my husband got one with only 3 attempts. The key is to be flexible — have a date in mind but be open to other days near that date. Be prepared that the date may get cancelled on you. Yes, they’re fickle like that, but it’s part of their boyish charm. Sometimes if you call, they may say «Do you want to come in tonight?» He asked for something near our anniversary (¹¹⁄₁₆) and we got ¹¹⁄₁₇. Which was perfect. So be prepared to make a flexible plan. It’s worth it. A lot of people have theories on the best time of day to call. He had the best luck with a 2pm weekday call.
The restaurant is BYOB and although they will tell you not to worry about it, be sure to bring something for the chefs. They’re not picky and they’re appreciative of everything. But bring something just for them. Don’t be that person who brings a 6 pack and gives a bottle to one chef. We took a bottle of wine for ourselves and a bottle of bourbon for the chefs and that seemed sufficient.
The cost is pretty good as compared to other restaurants in this class. The price varies depending on the particular meal of that day. The total for 2 before tip was $ 305, including tax, a $ 5 corkage fee and $ 15 for still water (wasn’t paying attention when he said there was a tap water option). That said, once you’re in this caliber of dining experience, I’m not sure that $ 50 here or there really matters. If you’re willing to splurge on this type of meal, just go for it.
Have fun with it. Don’t take yourself too seriously because despite the ridiculously high class culinary creations that these geniuses are making, they also don’t take themselves too seriously. There’s no pompous arrogance here. Don’t be afraid to get a little tipsy. The chefs like to share, so don’t be surprised if they come out with an additional drink or two that they think might pair better with that item than whatever you brought. By the end of the night, my husband broke his glass. Don’t worry about it. They didn’t. And the table next to us of 5 senior citizens (who had been to Schwa many times) came prepared and brought a case of unbreakable wine glasses. Veterans. My husband and I also did a shot of Jamieson in the kitchen with the guys to celebrate our anniversary (thanks Joshua!). That’s the type of place this is. And that is what makes it unique and a clear stand-​out over any other dining experience in Chicago and possibly the US. The food alone would keep Schwa ranked high in a very short list across the country… but the atmosphere and fun experience is what puts it at the top of that list and in a category all on its own.

i have been thinking about this for days. because i want nothing more than to give schwa five stars. can’t do it.
first and foremost, my reservation process was a breeze. called, someone picked up, got the date i wanted. maybe this is a small miracle, but IDGAF. this made me very happy indeed. the person i spoke with was so great, too.
for the next week, all i could think about was the adventure i was going to have at this legendary establishment. couldn’t wait to bring a gift to the chefs, since i am a lover of quirky traditions like these. so excited.
the food was unbelievable. just amazing. the raviolo, which i had been fantasizing about for seven days, exceeded expectations. i want to eat an entire vat of them. and the final dessert — a curry ice cream with smoked chocolate — it left us breathless. such special dishes. really spectacular. and walking past the kitchen to catch a glimpse of these dishes being assembled with such artistry and care; that is really really special. the diner is a component of the kitchen, and vice versa. there is no place like this anywhere in the world. and, as a lover of hiphop, the loud music was a welcomed part of my experience. fucking fantastic.
i want schwa to be a part of my life forever.
but i don’t know if i can go back, for one very specific reason.
vomit. vomit, as in puke.
i noticed a woman sitting by herself, with a sort of happy, dreamy, dazed look in her eyes. she was directly in my line of sight in the tiny room of schwa, and it became clear that she was a friend of the kitchen staff. cool. but then, things took a turn. the happy, dreamy, dazed look was due to being completely obliterated drunk. it started innocently; i thought she had something caught in her throat. nope. one second later, she started dry heaving. then, her cheeks filled with vomit. she swallowed it down. her cheeks filled again. a thick white stream started to dribble out of her mouth and down her chin. she covered her mouth with a napkin. swallowed. cheeks filled up again like a hamster storing up. this went on for a good twenty seconds, and holy shit, i did not know what to do. no one in the kitchen noticed. the woman sitting next to me said «ohmygod, no», and turned her head and covered her eyes. finally, the drunk gal bolted to the bathroom, where i assume her gorgeous meal met its fate. one of the chefs who was taking care of us came by, and i told him what i saw and asked if she was okay. he sort of laughed and said she was fine, and i said she didn’t seem fine. i was instructed not to think about it anymore. uhhhhhh… i’ll try? and then, of course, the raviolo course, which i had been dreaming of, was promptly placed in front of me. the sauce, the same color as the vomit. i forced myself not to think about it, as instructed. and yes, the raviolo was truly spectacular. truly. but, shit, you know? i had to make a concerted effort to not think about puke for the rest of my night at schwa.
and that’s why i can’t go back. because that’s how the brain works. because if one wants to see people puking in public, they can choose any wrigleyville bar. but you guys??? c’mon. you’re one of the most acclaimed restaurants in the world. you should know when someone is overserved.
i love you, schwa, but telling me not to «think about it» didn’t work for me. i know myself well enough to know that the ghost of vomits past will haunt me if i try to dine with you again. insert sadface and broken heart emojis.

I agree almost entirely with David’s review.
I have heard of Schwa through research, and thought it would be a must try Michelin Star restaurant when the time was right. After several call attempts, we had our reservation. First impression was ‘okay this is interesting & very different from all the other ambiences we have experienced on this list.’ But I was open-minded…after all if the food is good I rather have it in this ambience than a uptight one (Tru).
Given the price for the meal I thought is would have been fair if I had even enjoyed half of the 9 courses.
The restroom was also unisex which for the price tag and expectations we had for Schwa is was unexpected.
And Pellegrino for $ 20…
As for the food, my rating on each course runs the entire spectrum (like David’ review). There were a few dishes that were good but nothing I thought that that were absolutely fantastic. Then there were a few dishes that I will give credit for being unique and involving very skillful preparation like the 7up gelatin encased oyster… but for taste did not live up to the creativity. Then there were some courses that were so ruined by being over-​salted or so sweet for my palate that honestly just ruined my experience here. All three of their sweet courses I had tasted but left the rest on my plate because the flavors was quite inedible for me. I was very confused of the goal of most of the desserts and the flavor profile they were trying to achieve.
While I am glad I had the experience, I wish we had the $ 350 (price for two incl. gratuity) spent on numerous other of the amazing restaurants in Chicago

I loved it! Best meal I’ve had in Chicago.
The whole experience is very private and intense– be ready.
I cannot comment on the reservation process since my date took care of that, and I just showed up :). We brought spirits for the chefs and they did us real good :)
They were playing heavy metal the night I went.
I’d go back in a heartbeat!

Absolutely totally ridiculously in love with Schwa, its food and great staff (platonic philly brotherly type of love).
Lucky again to manage a reservation. I’m so comfortable there — delicious food, «chill» staff as my dear friend correctly pointed out, and lovely ambiance. Great value food too.
Details of the meal? Who am i to rate them one by one? i’m just a humble iranian born champ (tea partier call us ayy-​rabs).
Have I had better food elsewhere? who cares? nowhere else is Schwa.
Y’all hurry up and knock on their doors assiduously to get in some night.

I became aware of Schwa through the grapevine as a must-​do experience, IF you can get the reservation. After several call attempts, we had our reservation with another couple. The place is small so being seated is entirely dependent on one particular table, which in this case caused us to wait until 10:30pm to be seated for our 9:30pm reservation.
Given the price for the prix fixe menu, being able to BYOB is nice, except when you see them pouring one of your expensive bottles of wine to another table, and when you don’t really have a choice in what you drink when — they just take all your booze to the back and bring out what they feel like at a particular time.
As for the food, my rating on each course runs the entire spectrum. There were a few dishes such as the quail egg ravioli and chocolate pasta that were absolutely fantastic. Then there were a few dishes that, while quite foreign to me, I will give credit for being unique and involving very skillful preparation like the 7up gelatin encased oyster. Then there were some courses that were so ruined by being over-​salted that they were almost inedible. Just not good, at all.
While I am glad I had the experience, I wish I had my $ 275 (price for two incl. gratuity) and bottles of wine back and had spent it on numerous other of the amazing restaurants in Chicago.

This spot has been on my «to do» list for several years, and wow… it did live up to the hype! Yes, it is dark inside. Yep, there is LOUD music (pretty cool stuff). Yeah… it is way cool that the chefs are the servers. They were friendly, attentive, and informative on our visit last night. Woohoo, the food is FANTASTIC, creative, fun, and delicious. I am not sure which course was my favorite, as they were all so unique and delightful. The ravioli was stunning. Pastrami and celery soda was mind blowing. Loved the fish fry. The cheesecake was devine. Plus, everything in-​between was AMAZING.
What an experience…

I’m not going to review the price because I didn’t pay for it.
I had a pretty cool meal and it lasted more than 3 hours with drinking involved. At dessert, the staff and remaining tables were all family.
Fulfilling and… «earthy». I don’t even know what earthy really means. Dishes taste gritty, as if dug from the ground. Clean, tho. Earthy. The opposite of hearty.
If there was a main course demi-​heure, it involved chicken and lots of cruds (raw fish). Those were nice. I wouldn’t eat their frozen ants in peanut butter with celery sauce again. Probably not ever.

I wrote a comprehensive review the last time I was at Schwa so check that out for lengthy details. I’m going to keep this one short & succinct.
+Food is amazing. 9 courses that taste unearthly and are presented to blow your mind.
+Brother Ali, Atmosphere, and Talib Kweli are some of the artists playing over their sound system. They blare what I like to call White Boy High music, so if that isn’t your thing, might want to bring ear plugs. It’s my thing so I was loving it.
+Service is always amazing yet stays cool & casual.
+It’s a 3 hour affair. Both times I’ve gone it’s been a little over 3 hours of a dining experience so be ready.
+BYOB. Remember you’re going to be there for 3 hours so bring enough liqs accordingly. Don’t be a douche and give the chefs your leftover boos (like a table of drunk idiots in suits/​fancy dresses did last night)…bring them something intentionally.
+Our bill came to $ 353 for two with tax & tip. It’s pricey. Real pricey. But remember, you’re not spending anything on drinks, you’re getting a life changing meal prepared by a master of cuisine, and just generally you’re going to have an awesome time. Worth every penny.
Most casual fine dining you’ll ever have. Come as you are. Chill out, relax with friends, eat, drink and be merry. Schwa is a must do and Chef Michael Carlson is a culinary genius.

I have heard so much about this place and after a few times calling (since December) we finally got in.
Atmosphere is quaint and blah with very loud. It was 9 courses and my boyfriend and I go to a lot of tasting menus and I thought this was just ok. I was surprised how expensive it was without any pairings. In fact, they charged us $ 20.00 for a bottle of Pellegrino. I wouldn’t go back here especially since Chicago has so many amazing places to eat and where you can find creative foods with wine pairings for a similar price. Sorry Schwa but maybe you had an off night, however, with the difficulty getting a rez, mediocre food and gauging of prices, I wouldn’t come back.

Difficult Reservation — Somewhat Worth The Effort
Atmosphere: Love it. Rap/​Hip Hop — Into It (Wiz Khalifa was on repeat). Laid back. Relaxed. Not pretentious.
Food: The meal was overall inventive and well-​executed. With that being said, some things meshed well, others not so much. The food was solid, but I wasn’t overly impressed with any particular dish. My expectations were extremely high which was probably why the meal in its entirety left me underwhelmed.
Service: Standard. Nothing special which lends credence to their philosophy of being all about the food.
Would I come here again? Eh. I’m glad I did, but moreso so I could cross it off my culinary bucket list. Also, dining for 4.5 hours is not my thing.
Recommended? Mostly for those who truly appreciate culinary creativity and don’t mind dining for hours on hours to experience it

I can only speak to my personal experience, but eating at Schwa was wonderful! Regardless of its online reputation, I definitely recommend giving this place a chance. It was well worth it!
I called on Wednesday around 1 and had no issue getting through and scheduling a reservation for the following week. I had a funny feeling they’d cancel on me, and I was right. They called me to reschedule and were very nice and accommodating even though their reason for canceling definitely seemed like a lie. Oh well whatever, I rescheduled for the following night.
I let them know upon making the reservation that I am a vegetarian. They were happy to accommodate and my food was delicious and just as beautiful as my meat eating boyfriends’ meal. I will say the courses take some time to get going but by the end of the experience you will not leave disappointed! Some of the dishes probably won’t blow your mind, but flavor-​wise they will not disappoint. Most dishes were like nothing I had ever eaten before (my first molecular gastronomy dining experience).
The chefs/​servers were very nice. We did not bring them any booze as some people here have suggested. It did not seem to matter either way. The music was at an appropriate level and the atmosphere was chill. I actually appreciated the casual environment. It was a good way for a person like me (25 year old, casual foodie) to experience fine dining without feeling out of place.
The bill for two with tax and tip was over $ 300, so just be aware of this before going in.

Dinner at Schwa is like approaching an ultra-​high-​maintenance girl at a bar. She’s been spoiled with free drinks 1000x times by the disingenuous and now her radar’s all whacked out. (ladies, use the «like a drunk d-​bag that expected me to put out» analogy).
She is Schwa – the praise went to their heads. Now they expect tribute as norm and installed a bipolar set of tests to determine if you’re worthy of dining. The rite of passage:
— — –
find ++++ to skip the hints/​getting a seat advice.
— — –
1) Calling
«Is it the right time? Hope I don’t get that burger king bit.» 12−4pm on open days is best by most reports.
2) Reaching a human:
If it rings repeatedly, nobody’s home. Straight to voicemail means slam them with calls; they’re on the line. Called Wednesday, 2pm, immediate voicemail. *Redial* *Redial* Got a person.
3) The phone convo + res:
Have a cc ready. You’re reserving at least two $ 110 seats. They’ll want a number in case you don’t show because there’s a 1% chance of that. Swallow your pride and forget the ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ chance that they’ll cancel. Remember that Schwa plays harder ball than Susan’s parents in Seinfeld when they trick George into showing them his non-​existent house in the Hamptons.
And don’t be a turd: «I’m available 24/​7″ or „I’ll be your best friend“ will both probably get you canceled. They’ll ask for a res date. I gave them two weekend evenings one month in advance. They offered multiple times both days and asked for allergies. We confirmed. „Goodbye“
Breathe a sigh of relief.
4) The waiting game
So now you have a month to wonder „When’s that dreaded call coming?“ While waiting, plan a backup that’ll accommodate – not Pequods, that’ll be packed – or setup a later res you can cancel if Schwa doesn’t break your heart last minute.
5) The second call
48 hours before my res and I missed it. Was it a cancellation? My fingers fumbled. Voicemail: „Vinny from Schwa, calling to confirm. Call me back.“ Played it cool and waited 8 minutes.
„Schwa, this is Vinny.“
„Hey Vinny, you just called. I’m confirming my res.“
„Ok man, we got you.“
„Great Vinny. I’m bringing you guys some beer from B — -. What styles do you like?“
„Ah man, you don’t have to.“
„Yeah but I want to, hear you guys appreciate good stuff.“
„Uh, We’ll drink anything. IPAs.“
„Sours?“
“We love sours»
«Awesome. I’ll bring a few you guys have never tried.»
«Thanks man. See you.»
6) The last 48
2 days to go. Keep sweating. From what I’ve read, they will cancel up until one hour before. With a 6pm res looming, we started celebrating at 5:10, downed a fourth cocktail, and cabbed crosstown mid rush-​hour. The cabbie drove like the devil. No Hendrix’ Crosstown Traffic on the radio.
7) 6:00pm, Friday, 11/​15/​2014. No note, door opens. We enter…
++++
Glowing but dingy from the hanging bulbs and paint combo, seedy looking red kitchen through the small window and open doorway. That’s where the six cooks are. Vinny comes out, greets, and gives us choice of 2-​top. We choose the heater seats by the door.
Music is not too loud. Once at capacity (7:30 on Friday), Schwa has a good buzz, like crowded (not packed) bar. If this is too loud for you, don’t think of going to Aviary.
Service. it’s already been noted: not ISIS but definitely a mixed bag. Servers quoted different ingredients to different tables. Their conversation skills could use some sharpening, too unenthusiastic to explain even techniques.
Bring alcohol for them but don’t sweat. My hard-​to-​find gifts were met with the same enthusiasm as another table’s crown-​royal: a monotone «You guys are awesome.» Again, after 1000x free drinks, it’s the act of tribute they expect. Don’t shower them with sought-​after gifts (their job since you’re paying them $ 100+pp)
Savory/​/​Sweet Scorecard (out of 10):
8−6−9−6−4−3−5−7−8 /​/​9−8−10
Savory dishes varied wildly. Consistently SWEET, NOT salt. Confusing combinations:
— a perfectly cooked scallop smothered in allspice and white chocolate
— roe totally masked by gooey plantain and banana
— black cod and beer foam?!
Combinations ranging from questionable to bizarre, the small proteins overshadowed. Positive savory memories include
1) the quail egg ravioli
2) sweetbread mustard bites with daisy cutter IPA.
And then Schwa shifted again. the desserts were stellar.
1) The chimay crème brûlée is easily the best cheese course to grace my lips. Tangy and rich, fermented huckleberry supplies the acid.
2) The pickled watermelon and rind with unagi ice cream was one bite, a delicious marriage, bright and refreshing while sweet.
3) Finally came the build-​your-​own parsnip rootbeer float. 3D, time-​sensitive, playful, and above all, tasty.
Having seen other diner’s reviews/​pics, I’d risk Schwa again. Current menu is weak on savory; past menus seem stronger. Desserts seem consistently great across reviews, so Schwa is 4−5* after savory improvement. Then book a res so it’s at capacity (after 7:30) with hopes of the legendary shots/​partying.

The reservation was worth the blood, sweat and tears it took to snag a spot. This was definitely the biggest, longest, memorable foodgasm of all. I wish I could recount the taste, name or appearance of the nine courses, but that would be too much like right. What I can tell you is everything I put in my mouth was incredible. These guys are sooooo talented and genuinely enjoy what they do.
How do you get in on the fun!?? Well, call the number like you are trying to win four tickets to hear One Direction, Prince or Sade (or your fav artist). The voicemail will be full so keep trying. When the phone is answered, don’t get confused if they answer saying Domino’s or Burger King. They are playful and unorthodox, but it is worth it.
It’s BYOB so bring whatever floats your boat. There are no ice buckets brought to the table to white wine or rose. Prepare to have them chill it for you. Plan on spending about 3 hours feasting.
The price is a lot cheaper than most restaurants of its caliber, so you should bring a bottle of Jameson for the chefs. … As a side note, while we licked the bowl and squealed about each course, the cooks were chomping down on pizza that was delivered. Gotta love it! There’s no place like Schwa.
