H2 Huth & Harris Wine Merchants

"Food and atmosphere was incredible. Service, however...was a little slow. Server was very nice and polite and knew the menu well. But took forever to show up in-between the few times she DID show up."

"I have been to dinner at Huth & Harris downtown several times in the past 5 years, and thought it would be a great place to take my boyfriend and his friends for his birthday. The meal started off great, we selected two bottles of wine (screw top- important lol), 2 cocktails and many items off the menu. Combined our bill totaled over $400 for 4 people. After receiving our bill I noticed a “corkage” fee. Now the food here is decent, but is terribly overpriced for what you receive. One of the benefits of coming to this restaurant is that they are also a wine merchant and sell wines at market price. This is the first time I was ever given a “corkage” fee ($7 PER bottle.) we did not receive fresh glasses between bottles and our waitress didn’t even pour our wine for us! I’ve worked at many restaurants and I understand corkage fees. This is a tacky and ridiculous hidden fee to sneak on your customers bill in this case- but after our table discussed this for a few moments, the owner Whitney decided to come out and argue her point as to why they charge corkage fees on wine, even bringing another local restaurant’s name into the conversation- “we COULD charge high prices like X.” I have more respect for a restaurant that charges menu prices without putting hidden fees in the very fine print of their menu, which she made sure to remind me that it WAS on the single paper drink menu provided for 4 people. I was totally embarrassed that she continued to argue with me after I told her I wasn’t interested in further conversation (twice- I said “I am not here to argue with you.”) We were one of only two tables in the restaurant that night, and I did not demand the corkage fee to be removed, so why even continue this awkward encounter? It’s sad that I will not be returning to this restaurant after our treatment last night. The service has always been subpar but rudeness from the owner is intolerable. If you’re going to charge a corkage fee, instruct the waitress to inform the guests and also change the glasses between bottles and POUR the wine for the guests. This isn’t the first time a waitress has dropped a bottle of wine at the table and left without offering to pour. I’m sure the owner feels justified in their steps of service and additional charges, but I will not recommend them anymore."

"Went there for lunch and it was phenomenal! I forgot to leave a review when I previously visited for dinner, there are OK restaurants and there’s this absolute gem of an establishment."

"We had an amazing meal in a very cool atmosphere. I love that it's a smaller venue with a chill vibe. The lamb chops were redunk!!!! Will definitely go back."

"Had a wonderful experience dining at H2 Nosh this afternoon. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, it’s upscale but cozy at the same time. The dishes themselves are also elevated to match the ambiance, the smoke turkey sandwich is a MUST try! I was full but couldn’t stop eating it, it’s so full of flavor and both the kale and potato salad that are side dish options are both packed with zesty flavors and wake the taste buds up. The squash soup was spicy and savory I liked it also. The cheesecake was the only thing I had an issue with, I’ve never had a warm topping on a cheesecake and I couldn’t make out the flavor that it was to have been."
