New restaurant offers half off wine tonight

Need a reason to try a new bistro?

How does a deal on wine sound?

Lily's Bistro, the new Oregon District eatery we previewed in May, will celebrate its first month in operation by kicking off its Tuesday half off bottle of wine weekly special.

The bottles will be reduced with food purchase.

“This gives people a chance to try some of our bottles that they maybe normally wouldn’t,” Emily Mendenhall, general manager of the business located at in Dayton 329 E. Fifth St., said in a statement. “It allows the staff an opportunity to really talk about the difference between a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and a French Sancerre, or to introduce folks to some of our interesting wines from lesser-known regions.”

Lily’s, a casual-upscale restaurant, is owned by Lisa and Bob Mendenhall. The couple also owns Blind Bob’s nearby.

Here are other weekly specials:

• Monday — service industry night: drink specials for those who work in restaurants.

• Wednesday and Thursday — happy hour from 5 to 7 p.m: specials on draft beers, wines and unique cocktail.

• Friday and Saturday — late-night menu: dine on selected items and hang in the bar and/or patios until 1 a.m.

Lily’s is in the former site of Boulevard Haus/Cafe Boulevard.
