The place is very nice design, we got the seat requested previously so it was very pleasant. The wine selection it’s amazing so it’s the music and ambiance. Fresh venue, good lighting and nice service. The main attraction of Analog I think is the vinyl player and music changing. It wasn’t very sloth this time compare to previous visits, maybe the gentleman was new , but I think definitely the change of albums should be a focused transition and smooth instead of pausing completely the music or else. Just a suggestion. 👌
