About us
Silver Star comes from a lived belief that life is simply better together, preferably with a fun drink in hand. Founded by Ash Rickole, who has spent over a decade in the service industry from behind the bar to the host stand to management, Silver Star is her way of claiming her favorite part of hospitality: celebrating people, moments, and good times done right. Reira, her right-hand woman and general manager of Wrench & Rodent, brings her expertise, leadership, and sparkle behind the bar as Silver Star’s lead bartender.
A Thoughtful Pour
We’ve partnered with Merenda Wine, a neighborhood wine bar and bottle shop in Oceanside, California, known for its personal and intentional approach to wine. Merenda focuses on small producers, thoughtful farming, and bottles chosen for how they drink at the table rather than trends or labels.
When you book with Silver Star, you’ll have access to Merenda’s wine selection at a preferred bulk rate, with guidance from a team that genuinely loves helping people drink well. Whether you’re looking for something celebratory, food-friendly, or a little unexpected, Merenda will help curate wines that feel right for your gathering.
