According to a recent Daily Herald article, Nirvana Wine & Grillerie will soon move locations and expand to the new Hawthorn Row development.

“I chose Hawthorn Row because it was the right opportunity at the right time and a great fit for us,” said Danny Caldwell in the Daily Herald article, who acquired the business in 2014. “I have been trying to move Nirvana for years, which is very difficult to do.”

“Nirvana is a full-service restaurant serving lunch and dinner, hosting group events and featuring a wine shop and wine club. More than 90% of what is served is never frozen with offerings including hand-cut meats, homemade stocks, soups and breads, said Caldwell adding, the restaurant is committed to sourcing the best and most environmentally sustainable ingredients and wines.”

“Wine is sourced from family-owned and small production wineries and about 50 wines by the glass are available. The restaurant is closed about five times a year for six varietal wine tasting and three-course chef featured pairing hosted by a winemaker.”

“The new location will be 2,563 square feet and have 50% more indoor seating while remaining intimate, Caldwell said. A private dining room will be able to host one or two events for about 50 people simultaneously. The bar will be bigger, more secluded from the dining room and have more of a “bar atmosphere,” Caldwell said.”
