50 Best Wine Bars near Lyndhurst

“I recently visited this bar and was genuinely impressed by the experience. The service was attentive and professional, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the moment I walked in. The food was impeccable—beautifully prepared, flavorful, and far above typical bar fare. A special mention goes to Linda behind the bar, whose warm, gracious demeanor made the evening even more enjoyable. This is the kind of place you look forward to returning to!“

“The food is fantastic, the portions are very generous and the service is great!“

“The experience was spectacular start to finish. Greeted nicely and service throughout was really excellent; paced well, not rushed or intrusive at all. really lovely. Hannah was great! We ordered from the restaurant week menu and a couple of other wise dishes (kimchi, bread and nori butter, patatas bravas). Of these the bread and butter was the least interesting, kimchi and patatas bravas were excellent. Starters -- frogs legs and hamachi, both amazing, cooked perfectly. Small plates -- soba a(with uni supplement) and celery salad, both excellent, soba was our favorite of the two. Salad was very fresh and nice. Entress, hangar steak and chicken sandwich. Steak in particualr outstanding -- cooked perfectly great sauce. Chicken sandwich is big and delicious Dessert -funfetti cake and panna cotta, both excellent. Drinks -- love the selections here boith zero proof and the wine/beer/cocktail options. Passion fruit marg and balsamic negroni excellent; sparkling hibiscus was really good and not to sweet. And the Cava by the glas very nice. The collab with brooklyn cider was a nice Basque style cider that paired nicely with the food. Overall, excellent and will be back!“

“My wife and I had the most lovely date night here. Customer service - for me - is what makes a place stand out in NY. Every single employee was the absolute best. So passionate, insightful and kind.
But yes. The food is also superb. Each dish is a little art piece. You can tell you are eating something that has been lovingly tested and improved upon. Such a treat.
And then the drinks. I had never heard of a single spirit on the menu. Had a blast jumping around and being taken on a ride.
And good hand soap. Gotta love good hand soap.
So yeah. It’s great. Check it out.“

“Love this please try the tasting menu with friends so delicious!“

“Awesome music, very good wine knowledge and fresh food to die for.“

“We had an amazing night at Aria on Valentine’s Day!! We were a large group who felt welcomed and appreciated. Owner made constant check ins, he also had a pretty great sense of humor and felt like an old friend!! We loved the wine suggestions and the foot was amazing! The decor was perfect setting for our celebration!! We will definitely be back to this spot again!!“

“Very lovely spot for a quick bite or a lovely chat with friends and beverages. Has a late night menu to ensure you’re not starving on your walk home.“

“We went here for my birthday dinner and I just wanna say from the start. The interior of this place is adorable. It is super cozy feels almost like a very rustic cavity. Feel kitchen is wide open for you to see everything that we were cooking which I love I had pretty high hopes walking in here and it has a pretty good reputation. They also own the sister restaurant a penny upstairs who I think has one of the best desserts in New York City so I put this place pretty high on my expectations.

Everything my hand was decently good it was good. Nothing was mind blowing though. The pit was a starter. It was strong good portion for you get for pate and went great on the bread

The jamon or prosciutto was also really strong and delicious. However, after that, I forgot what these dishes were I can’t even name them looking at the pictures anymore. The pasta was decent. The problem is after I left this place. I almost forgot this meal totally if it wasn’t for the atmosphere. It wasn’t for the space that I loved so much. It would’ve been quite forgettable for me.

Of course, the one of the most famous things they have. Here is the chocolate cake. It is huge decadent delicious I’m not really a chocolate cake person and we definitely have to take home, but I really love eating it the next two days.

I do remember also having some kind of steak with blueberries on it. It felt great Thanksgiving and I don’t know it’s like berries on my steaks personal choice. It’s a personal choice.“

“amazing for apéro - Highlighting that the cheese plate was $22 with only one piece of cow’s milk cheese that was delicious, but not a sufficient cheese plate for that price!

Overall, very good wine and good appetizers but with small portions. Bread was good“

“Amazing and interesting menu. Each dish was exciting and fun. We realized after our meal that we accidentally ordered and ate all vegetarian. Get the cheezits and the squash rings! The schnitzel was delicious as was the carrot hummus. Whatever that chocolate caramel dessert with marshmallow on top is… GET IT! Maybe get two.“

“Omg, where do I begin….

The ambience and vibe amazing!!! Food was delicious, drinks were fabulous. Had a cheeseburger, included was melted cheddar cheese and mushrooms. Also came with a salad which was sooo good. This place made thee best chocolate martini.

Olivia, the server was also amazing, so sweet and attentive. She made the experience even better, couldn’t have been happier. And the bathroom was very clean and smelled so good with a scented candle.

You will not be disappointed…. So happy my manager recommended this place.“

“Excelente, very nice, lo recomiendo!“

“This wine bar is AWESOME! We had sooo much fun; Food was OUTSTANDING and of course the wine was great as well! Great VIBE... Definitely will be back ... ***** 5 Stars!“

“This was the most delicious Georgian food I’ve had since I was in Georgia. Our server, Marite, was a delight. She made wonderful wine recommendations. We will definitely eat here again.“

“I'm a longtime neighbor who has been coming to the space since the late 2000s. I even liked whatever was going during late COVID years. I was emotionally boycotting the new menu because I loved Prime Meats. While I'll forever miss the pretzel and mustard, charcuterie platter, french fries and wursts and pickles, the new place has the same combination of new and reliable. The menu is outstanding and so is the service, cocktails and ambience. Thank you for the consistent excellence!“

“We had a great time here with our daughter and her significant other. There was a great selection variety of happy hour small plates and wines/cocktails and we ordered additional regular menu it items as well as a bottle of wine, which was only $60. We had a "window" seat which gave us some privacy and the wait staff was outstanding.“

“Vanguard is an absolute gem just steps away from the chaos of Times Square. Tucked on a quiet corner, it feels like slipping into a little dream world — warm, cozy, and instantly welcoming. The atmosphere is intimate without being stuffy, the kind of place where you can actually hear the person you’re with, relax, and just enjoy your glass of wine.

The service was truly outstanding: kind, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful without ever feeling pushy. You can tell they care about what they’re pouring and about making you feel at home. It’s the perfect spot to escape the noise, sip something delicious, and slow down for a moment in the middle of NYC. I’d come back in a heartbeat — Vanguard is the kind of place you almost don’t want to share so it stays your little secret.“

“Such a hospitable team!! We walked in without a reservation and were told they had a spot for us but had a reservation coming in 30 mins. They immediately made us feel welcome and even made us feel comfortable and confident we could order a few plates of food in that time. We ordered three plates that all came out quickly with enough time for us to enjoy. Every plate was uniquely Lei, perfectly balanced and seasoned.
It was a quick visit but I’m already looking forward to my return“

“Great service and a wonderful frose“

“Perfect experience! Exquisite wines, delicious food, attentive service. Some places should be much more hyped than they are, such as this one!

“Wine was ok, but the cake...........................insane“

“Cozy wine bar, so glad we stepped by before the rush. The service is attentive and the ambiance was warming. Felt like having dinner with friends at home. Wine pours are generous. Only had the snacks, def come back to try more options. Very clean establishment. Ask for Luca, very informative on wine selection, so very friendly.“

“Overall rating: 4.8

My friend took me to this place for after-work drinks and it’s such a cute spot for the area. While the wine was tasty & the staff was so nice, no happy hour? Not even a small one? Cmon.

Definitely want to come back for a date if I’m in the area.“

“Absolutely loved this neighborhood gem in Brooklyn. We sat at the bar and the bartender was so nice. We had their amazing cheese burgers with fries, everything was excellent including the atmosphere. The perfect place to hang out in Brooklyn for a casual meal or drinks.“

“There were no alligators in sight, unfortunately, but the service was excellent. Emma and Lena (I think) were very welcoming. I was the first drip coffee order of the day (this was around 4pm), but they were still accommodating. Convenient location, a crisp air temperature, a carefully curated bookshop. Bread upon request. Also milk and/or cream upon request. And bathroom upon request. Good service, whether requested or not. Would recommend“

“Food service and wine was amazing. Thanks guys!!“

“My friend and I were there for Bastille Day! Such a cute place, intimate and cozy. Fantastic wine list and food wars delish. Extremely friendly staff. Would totally come back.“

“We always have a great experience at St Jardim. The menu is excellent with a good range and everything we had was really well done. The service is always very attentive and helpful, especially with the wine selection which has nice depth. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, which makes it a comfortable place to spend an evening.“

“Food was really good. The Amish Chicken and Jerk Short ribs were delicious. Server was great. Kitchen seemed to get a bit backed up a peak time. That gave us an opportunity to taste their pull apart bread (whoa), which they brought out due to the wait.

We'll be going back.“

“Cute little date spot with some delicious food options to pair with their extensive global wine list.

The food menu blew us away, we loved everything we tried — highly recommend the Polenta, the Octopus with potato salad, Iberico selection, pan de queso with honey butter and the beignets with toasted fennel“

“Wow! While waiting for my dinner reservation, I googled Wine Bars near me and Brick came up as an option. With such great reviews, I had to try and it didn't disappoint.

Fernando was beyond friendly and helpful. A great selection of wine and the goat cheese was on point.

This is an unpretentious wine bar where you feel comfortable. Service was great without being overbearing. I loved it!“

“Strongly recommended! Perfect meal. Every dish was perfect mixed of flavors; and portions. And the service added on the amazingness of this place. We are looking forward to next season’s menu.“

“Good location, close to the Financial District. The vibe is relaxed and chill, with friendly staff and a welcoming crowd. The food looks nice and is solid, nothing mind-blowing, but decent (maybe I’m just picky after living in Japan). A good experience with friends.“

“Totally set up for safety great food and something special about this place and it’s owner.“

“I will be coming back immediately! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Shout out Stephanie - she let me charge my phone behind the bar and try the wines I was choosing between. And a beautiful outdoor seating area that was perfect for a Friday happy hour!“

“Great atmosphere - nice bar ware-great service.“

“Amelia outdid herself. Fast,friendly and a great sense of humor She's a pistol!“

“Lovely little place to have some wine and little bites or plates.
In Spain we are used to small places where you stay at the bar without sitting having dinner, a glass of wine or whatever; it was really nice having this experience in New York.

Food is good, wine as well, a bit expensive (portions are small… cheese board is a bit poor), but wait… it’s NYC it’s kind of normal.

The guys at the bar kind and smiley.

We enjoyed a lot our night and we were lucky to find a spot!“

“Had a lovely meal to celebrate my 50th birthday, the food was so good and the service was fantastic, I would highly recommend“

“A most wonderful atmosphere, outstanding service by Mickael, and incredible wine 🍷 list. It’s on our must visit list when in the East Village! Highly recommended indeed!!!“

“Super good service from everyone working ! The orange wine was really good which surprised me because I’ve tried it before and didn’t love it how I loved this one. I had a small app something with truffle and it was DELICIOUS. Will be back“

“My wife and I went to the Grove in Los Angeles last night and we had dinner at "Sogno Toscana," an it was outstanding. It was perfect in every way; great food, great drinks, outstanding and friendly staff, beautiful location, etc. I love Italian food but I can't think of one Italian restaurant that I like, until "Sogno Toscano." The food was outstanding, and there was so much more we saw go by that we can't wait to go back and try. And the drinks were outstanding. I love martini's and they served the best martini I've ever had. Giacomo was our server and took great care of us. He's from Italy and "Sogno Toscana" brought him to America when they opened their New York restaurant, and now he's in LA for this new restaurant. Although very busy, the entire staff were very fun to be around, and most of them are Italian which is also great.“

“Omg this place is amazing, if you are a truly new yorker or just visiting this place is wonderful wine and the atmosphere, especially if Remi is serving you, such an amazing soul complete the whole experience, definitely i will comeback with my best friends!!“

“Cork Soho is a place with such a wonderful atmosphere - you immediately feel at home. Great wine selection for all tastes, delicious cheeses and charcuterie and the most attentive service. The place is stylish, hip and cozy at the same time. You truly don’t want to leave.“
