This space was home (for years) to the old Boccherini's Coffe & Tea House. It's always been a quaint and relaxing space to spend time in. Albany-ites were so sad to see Boccherini's go but now .... we have Sweet Red's in its place!
You can order from a list of beautiful wines (lots of sweeter dessert options here) or you can even bring your own bottle and they will open it and pour it for you. I always like to try one or two of their wine flights to taste which goes better with what I'm eating and tasting.
Tonight I also decided to try the tomato basil soup - I was starving. It was delicious and full of basil flavor!
We ordered the cheese board, knowing that it would fill both of us up and we felt like playing and flirting and creating fun combinations of nuts and cheese and fruit. It was perfection!
The atmosphere here is perfect for a romantic date night. The lighting is low, you can tuck yourself in the back and enjoy your food.
The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable about the wines and food! They answered all of our questions without a blink and when my flights of wine came, I got to hear all about each of them.
Tonight we also did something we rarely do: we ordered dessert! No need to order coffee, the wines went wonderfully with our chocolate dessert!
Overall, we adore this place. The art on the walls, the ambiance, everything just screams 'relaxing sexy date night'. It was perfect for our mood! Love it!
