The ambiance was kind of nice at first: very rustic bar scene with a few tables. Nice and romantic when they put on the mood lighting, but once the live music started up, it got a little too loud and a little too country for my taste.
The Groupon deal included a glass of wine with your meal and a glass of wine with dessert, so I had a Riesling and prosecco. Winegasm prides itself on serving local, organic, and sustainable wines. The Riesling was surprisingly good: sweet, with a smooth finish. The prosecco was tasty, too, except it smelled a little like generic bathroom hand soap. We had a cheese fondue with bread, apples, prosciutto, bresola, speck, coppa, and soppressata. For dessert, we had a chocolate fondue with strawberries, banana, marshmallow, and pound cake.

Dinner was decent, but not amazing. I mean, it's probably hard to go wrong with putting melted cheese /chocolate in a bowl and cutting up the dip-ables. I did have a very strange experience afterwards though...I suppose my alcohol tolerance was surpassed and all that heavy cheese and chocolate was not agreeing with me. On the excessively long train ride home, I nearly puked! Not to say there was anything wrong with the food, per se, but I know I won't be eating so much, drinking so much, and then hopping on a New York City subway any time soon.
Yikes! Thank you for being the guinea pig for the rest of us!
