  1. Great date spot and knowledge staff!  The ricotta cheese crostini and cheese platter are also good for a light bite.

  2. im really impressed by this place. walk in and one of the first things i notice is they're playing great hip-hop music. dig. intimate lighting and couples whispering, who all cleared out at 11 pm to "have sex and pop an ambien" (yes, i said that out loud to the bartender. that's who i am.)

    service was extremely friendly and attentive. she recommended a "refreshing, funky" white wine that paired well with the wine & meat platter. served with a little thing of pesto and plenty of bread. thank you, i hate places that skimp on bread.

    i enjoyed sampling different flavor combinations, all of which made for a variety of flavor explosions in my mouth. frankly i wish i was a more sophisticated taster and remember-er of the things i eat so i could dive in deeper. haha oh well. ignorant yelp reviewer till i die, am i right 🙂

    this was the perfect taste of new york culture i had sorely missed down in the Caribbean. all in all i felt right back at home coming into this place. thanks.

  3. Classy and intimate wine bar right along the border of Chelsea/West Village along 8th Ave. We came here after dining in Meatpacking and it was a perfect spot to cap the night. It gets pretty crowded on weekend nights, but it's never really been too intense. Great selection of wines and specialty cocktails.

    The lounge area next to the bar is a great spot, as well. However, it's almost TOO "cushion" – my only complaint, which really isn't a complaint, I guess. :p

    Big fan!

  4. great vibe. comfy high rise leather booths. not crowded. pretty attentive service. the music can change genres aruptly but still a great place. good to come with friends and/or date

  5. Excellent wine bar. I have been a few times and it has never disappointing me. Mostly seating space but some standing room at the bar as well.

    Pros: Great wine selection (even has orange wines), attentive service, exclusive atmosphere, sophisticated well-dressed crowd.
    Cons: Not in my neighborhood. Why must all the cutest places be in West Village? 😛

  6. Adorable! The perfect little date spot! I loved it from the second I walked in, there's a small bar and a few high top tables with a couch that wraps around. You could tell a lot of people were on dates.

    They have a cute cocktail and wine menu. We ended up with a bottle of French white. Happy to report the waitress did know her wine, yay.

    The food menu is fairly selective, cheese, olives, charcuterie, small crostinis and sandwiches. We did their three cheeses for $15. I was a fan, you can small pieces of cheese with bread and some accompaniments. We also ordered 4 crostinis; they were all good.

    My only complaint was the service. They had two people busting their butts for an entire restaurant. They were both super sweet though! Adorable spot, I'll definitely be back!

  7. Cute little wine bar in the West Village. There are so many places to choose from in the area and I don't think this one stands out as particularly amazing, but I do like the atmosphere and the exposed brick on the walls. The candles and eclectic music selection added to the intimate nature of the space.

    I came here recently on a date and it took us a while to realize you had to go up to the bar to order-servers do not come around to take your order if you're seated at the tables. It's a cute spot to come on a date; lighting is low, it's loud but not so loud you can't have a discussion, and you can walk around the West Village before/after.

  8. Nice, dark, cozy, if not nondescript bar in the Village. Came here after a hefty meal to meet up with some friends. The booths are cozy and the drinks are stiff enough. Not much else you can ask for or say about it.

    I could see myself going back, but right now can't think of any specific reason why I would do that. Yeah, it's like that…
