Marco Canora and Paul Grieco's Park Slope branch of Terroir is opening tonight. The space has been ready for some time now and with a liquor license finally on premise, they're ready to go. Starting at 5pm tonight, you can go get your hands on some good times, riesling, beer, bar snacks, and plenty of other good grub. Menus are after the jump.

Signage is up at 284 5th Ave in Park Slope, home to the fifth outpost of Terroir, chef Marco Canora and sommelier Paul Grieco's wine bar. The space is ready for business, but still waiting on its liquor license. It should come early next week and then the (Rhein) coast is clear.
Hours of operation and menus are taped to the front window. The menu has a little something for everyone in the form of "Little Bar Snacks," "Fried Stuff," "The Best Panini In All Of Brooklyn," Charcuterie, Cheese, "The Sweet of Sweets," Bruschetta, Salads, and "Cool Stuff That You Must Eat." Click ahead for a look around the slick interior.

Marco Canora's veal meatballs and Paul Grieco's rieslings will be in Brooklyn soon. Terroir Park Slope is "Opening soon...like really soon!" The grey plywood that was covering the facade has been taken down and reveals a couple of sleek glass windows and a big glass door.
Signs on the windows pay homage to Great Lakes, the former dive bar at 284 5th Ave that had "super cheap beers" and "super smel of stale cigarettes."
Here's a sneak at the progress being made inside the place. Exposed brick and rafters that made Great Lakes so cozy have been cleaned up a bit and will give Terroir Park Slope that classy, rustic vibe-a-rino. This is going to be a great place to go for a glass of blaufrankisch in the middle of winter.

The year 2012 was only two days old we heard that the guys behind Hearth and Terroir were opening a Terroir outpost in Park Slope. The location would be the newly vacant Great Lakes space on 5th Ave and 1st Street. The dive bar closed its doors at the end of 2011, after opening them 15 years prior in '97.
Six months after it was announced Terroir was moving in, the tired, green facade that housed Great Lakes sat dormant with the old, plywood sign still up. A "For Rent" with a number to call hung above that. Maybe it took a while because Paul Greico, the wine genie responsible for Terroir's success, was busy winning James Beard Awards. Either way, construction has finally started at 284 5th Ave. The building has been completely gutted and the old windows on the 1st Street side of the building have been boarded up.
There hasn't been a date released as to when TPS will open, but sometime this fall seems very likely.

These photo's come to us via chef Marco Canora over at Hearth. Apparently a cab decided to crash into the restaurant last Friday around 11pm. A tweet from the chef tells us, "Thankfully, no one was hurt."
