I think the corkage fee was $5 a bottle, which still is preferable to spending a 50+% premium on a bottle of wine in a restaurant.
There were 14 of us there, probably 16 bottles of wine. Everyone got to try out different wines without having to a) agree and b) finish up one bottle before moving on to the next one.
Hmmm... It looks like they recently got a liquor license, but are still doing the corkage thing.

Like I said, BYOBs are great. But a place with no booze and no BYOB policy is a morgue.
