The service was great! The food was pretty good, definitely worth the $25 I paid on groupon. My favorite was the bacon deviled eggs. We really liked the red wine option which was a merlot. My biggest complaint is that when we got the check (so that we could figure out how much to tip) the check said groupon deal $88 + $2.18 tax, and at the bottom was hand written "Suggested gratuity $18". Just because thats how much the groupon was worth doesnt mean that was how much our food/wine was worth. We checked the menu and our food totaled $38 and the only Merlot on their menu was $36, which brought the total to $74 before tax. We rounded up to $80 and tipped on that. I was disappointed because the totaled amount on the check and the suggested gratuity were dishonest amounts. Unfortunately were not sure if wed go back without a groupon, which is a bummer because we live just a few blocks away.

Went here with a party of six for a friends birthday. The service was terrible, it took forever for our food to come. Almost an hour to wait for a salad and then it took another hour for some other dishes to come. The service was terrible, the waitress dos not check into see if we needed anything else and gave us few updates about the food. We ordered guacamole and it was gross, literally nothing but mushed up avocado, no seasoning not even salt. Also I waited I line for 10 mins to the bathroom because the door locks by itself sometimes. Please fix your door, especially since there is only one bathroom. The music was okay and the cake we had was great but otherwise not a place I would ever come back to.

I want to love Therapy. Its a beautiful space, full of comfy couches, a nice bar and a deck in the back. The problem is with the wine. Its not good. Ive gone back again and again in hopes that the selection will improve, but it hasnt. Its a wine bar, without anyone steering a proper wine list. Every red is sweet and young and lacks any complexity to speak of. Worse, the prices might be cheap for a wine bar, but considering at least a couple of those bottles are on the $10 shelf a block away at Olivino, the local wine shop. Its a shame. I want to be here three times a week and all afternoon on the weekend, but it just doesnt work. What they need is a good sommelier to pick up a proper selection.

Nice, chill neighborhood spot. Unfortunately, they were out of several wine varieties and food items when we arrived, but understandable in the off-season/dead of winter. Malbec was out, but our friendly bartender poured us a glass of petite syrah that was deliciously full and earthy — just what we like. Normally, they only sell this particular wine by the bottle, but it was extra thoughtful of the staff to pour single glasses to customers since they did not have what we originally wanted. Looking forward to returning in the spring/summer so we can enjoy the warm weather (and a glass of malbec) on their patio.

This place has outdoor seating in the back which is cute and low-key... however if you are like me and prefer indoors u can sit at the bar (lol closer to the drinks) or they have a huge couch which is like half bed half couch its dimly lit but still makes for a good photo op.. Sliders sliders sliders they have a few options like crab cake, bbq pulled pork, and burgers theyareall delish unfortunately they are doll sized so dont come here hungry just ready to drink! Last but not beat the heat heat with there popsicle processco drink!

this is a nice low key neighborhood spot. good place for after work drinks on fridays. the atmosphere is very open and casual. the bartenders are very cool as well, but the food takes a very long time to get out. I went here for brunch once as well, and it was a cheese platter. It is hit or miss really, but if you are looking for a nice lounge and drinks they get that very right.

Therapy is a great hangout spot for locals. They have a strong wine selection and a great soundtrack. The food leaves much to be desired as most things are cooked on a George Foreman grill. The cheese plates work well though. Bring cash as tips are only taken that way. Stay with your friends and watch the game. Two flat screens are a nice addition to this upscale bar.

Why dont they have fresh food?!? Serving prepackaged food thats just reheated is not a way to get customers to want to come back. The Groupon Couples Night out deal is a ripoff. The wine that is available through the deal is horrible and cheap. Reduced the rating from 2 stars to 1 star.

Had a really good experience there after work with my friends. The liquor was on point. We got complimentary shots after paying the bill. The menu was too deli for me and the serving sizes wasnt very appealing. Great hang out and the ambience superb. Will visit again .

Very comfortable, cooled out atmosphere on a Sunday evening. Great service, friendly, accommodating staff; not particularly gourmet-flavored selections but adequate. Would like to try the better wines in the future. Used a Groupon to sample the experience.

Cute backyard, but not much of a kitchen, the pulled pork sliders though were excellent, but the cheeseburger ones sucked, make sure they have buns and try the sliders, spinach dip was great but the salads bleh.. Kind of pricey for what you get.

I really love the vibe of this place. The bartenders are warm and conversational and they have some interesting options on their wine menu. Its been ages since Ive been here, but I can still taste a chocolate-y red I had here that was unreal.

Beautiful quite atmosphere where you can hang out with friends and have great conversations. Soft music that sets the mood and encourages deep intellectual conversations or just relax and enjoy a glass of something good.

I like the setup and cozy feel of this place. They play good music and have a descent, but limited offering of wines. After several visits the service seems consistent and the servers are attentive and polite.

Its a great option in the neighborhood. But the service is spotty. Once a waiter spilled two drinks in a row! Its staffed by kids who are a bit disinterested, but its good they have been given jobs.

This place is always amazing. Ive been coming here for years after discovering it when I lived in the Richmond. I highly suggest it! The crab cakes and the burger the way to go.

One of my homes away from home! The staff is great, the vibe is friendly and not pretentious, something like a "Cheers" feeling... A good place to chillax and get your sip on.

Not bad at all, great cheese plates, awesome drinks! Bought Groupon deal, so even better for the money. Otherwise a bit pricey and cheaply made eats. Go for the ambiance.
