   The dining area is satisfactory lit but not too much, it’s quiet and welcoming. Service was excellent and attentive to details. The old fashioned I had was great, had to have 2 just to make sure. The duck was prepared nicely and paired well with the sweet potato puree and Brussel sprouts. Will dine again for sure.

   My wife and I I only go out to a fancy restaurant once or twice a year. We were excited to go to Up Cellar for the first time because it is closer to us on the South Side. It did not disappoint! The food was delicious, the mood and ambiance were perfect, and our server, Taylor, was fantastic! She provided very helpful insight on the menu, was attentive but also gave us time between each course to enjoy our date night, and really helped make the evening special. We had the deviled eggs trio, French onion soup, Denver wagyu steak, duck breast, and bask cheese cake. The eggs and soup were AMAZING! We had never had either wagyu or duck before, and Taylor helped recommend the temperature of the duck for my first time. She suggested Medium, which was a great call. It was very good. Obviously , the wagyu steak was delicious as well. Unlike any steak we’ve ever had. Just melted in your mouth with so much flavor. She helped us decide on the cheesecake for dessert, which was the best choice for the end of that meal. We each had a couple of glasses of wine, and I had the Dark & Smokey cocktail after dinner, which was incredible. Plus, since we were celebrating a late Valentines Day, and my wife’s new job, we each got a complementary glass of champagne! We cannot recommend Up Cellar highly enough! Thanks to everyone there that helped make our night special.

   Service is always wonderful, food for the prefixed meal wasn’t the same standard i think you will see on a regular night, but we will try again for sure.

   The food, while quite good was a bit simple for the price point. The drinks were excellent. The atmosphere is comfortable but lacks uniqueness. Small details were amiss. The hostess bolted up the stairs. Food for every course arrived well before the drinks, and in the case of the entree, the food was finished before the drinks even arrived. Would expect a cloth napkin at these prices. A visit here will leave you full and happy, but not necessarily wowed.

   We ate here on Valentine’s Day. Have been here before. Valentine menu was preset with some choices for a set price of $150 for 2 people. A 5oz glass of wine was going to cost $16, so ordered a bottle of wine for $58 as this seemed to be a better value. Also ordered one Valentine special Prosecco drink for $13 and one smoked Old Fashioned for $18. My husband ordered a Wagyu steak. Flavor was good, but sliced very thin. Came with mashed potato, but no vegetable. I ordered the Maine Scallop meal with linguine. The three scallops were medium size. Crab cake appetizer was large & very good. Dessert also good. Was surprised by the 20% “Valentine” surcharge automatically added to our bill. Was this supposed to be the tip?? Prefer to do our own tipping. We had a very good waitress, so tipped her another $40 cash to make sure she got a tip. By the time we left the restaurant, we had spent $300. Food and service good, but did not feel the value was worth what we paid for it. Will be back as we like the restaurant, but prefer to order off the menu and pay our own tip.

   What a little gem of a restaurant in Bargarsville. AMAZING food, WONDERFUL service, expertly procured wine offerings. When we travel through the area, this will be on our list to stop whenever our schedule allows.
