    This wine bar is AMAZING! Such a great selection of wines, beers and light fare food. I highly recommend getting the wine flight with a meat & cheese board. The bread with cheese in oil was also very tasty. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. The space is clean & comfortable with a view into Urban Wine & Spirits. They also have outdoor seating which is nice when the weather is warm. I will be a regular here for sure.

    A quaint spot perfect for a drinking and conversing. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly, service was fast, and adequate pricing for the quality. We ordered the Bruschetta, it was fresh and tasty. We both ordered the wine flight and enjoyed our servers story behind each wine. They had a large menu of diverse wines and small plates.Definitely will be going back.

    Great place. Good menu of small plates and reasonably priced wines by the glass. Seating on sidewalk or indoors.

    Wonderful atmosphere. Unique and interesting wines. Friendly staff. Absolutely best wine store attached with the best sales person!

    Quaint, nicely decorated. Casual but “nice.” Good price points. Super friendly, cute, attentive staff. Great wine.The kitchen is a one-man operation behind the bar. Wouldn’t expect too much, but “decent” bites.Good date spot. Bites. Not for dinner though.

    Lovely place, good wines and the best appetizers. I loved it.

    Had a lovely time at this wine bar last night!The selections were great - I got a very tea-like orange wine and my friend got a very dry, clean white. I’m pretty picky about my whites so I was very impressed with how flavorful but well balanced it was. I’m definitely going to check back in a few weeks - I’ll be very curious to see what wines are highlighted with the changing season!

    Amazing cozy wine bar! Had a bottle of natural orange wine! Cheese board was on the dot! Will be back for sure!

    Such a lovely addition to the neighborhood! Excellent natural wine selection and I loved the zucchini flatbread. Great spot for reading my book and people-watching. Also, D rocks!

    Im really surprised that this place doesnt have more reviews, as it is really a nice option for a wine bar in the area.The vibe is on point for what youd want here. It is connected to a wine store and they really do seem to pay attention overall to the theme (especially in the bathroom with their decor/plants, which is always a huge plus to me!).Their glass menu is reasonable/not overwhelming and fairly priced. I was a skosh disappointed that 2/3 of the chilled reds they did not have (especially since theyre connected to a wine store...like why not just stock a different chilled red?). But the waitress was super nice and talked us through some other options and also bonded with us while we sat at the bar.They dont have a happy hour which would be a bit of a draw, but the prices overall again arent so tough. We grabbed some bar seats right when they opened but I can imagine that the tables get a bit overwhelming given how close together/small they are.

    Finally made it to this neighborhood wine bar and Im so glad I did. I will most definitely make this a regular hang out. Bartender/manager (owner?) was super friendly, informative and all around welcoming, not to mention the wine selection looks top notch.

    The wines are crazy - especially the orange one I got on tap!!! 🍷 It was just perfect with the flatbread! But the craziest part is how nice are the people working here - truly a gem in NYC!PS: the girl in the picture is a waitress and she’s so cute! Should I ask her out?

    What an excellent addition to the City! Ive had over a decade of New York three tier experience and I was excited to taste pours from varietals and regions I havent heard from before at entry level prices as well as speak with staff who truly care for the well being of their guests. Vini, Ian, and Omar welcome wine lovers of all types and Ill be sure to spread the word of this 💎. Thanks for a great time!

    What a great find ! The owner was behind the bar . He took the time to make sure I had a drink to suit my likes and that my wife had an excellent glass of wine . He gave us great recommendations on other local spots . Highly recommend!
