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!!“

“Beautiful meal. Usually I’m skeptical about Chinese fusion, but everything was executed perfectly at Lei. The celtuce had a delightful crunch, which was paired nicely with a rich, but light and slightly tangy sauce. The Cabbage with yuba and morels was also very warming and had a great depth of flavour without being too heavy. We also ordered the shao bing, which, while simple was delightfully crunchy and paired nicely with the slab of butter inside. The mains, however, were the real star of the show. Many come for the sweet and sour beef short rib, and I will say it’s a must order. It pairs wonderfully with the side of rice, and it is very tender and flavourful. The Hand-rolled cat’s ear noodle with lamb braised in cumin and tomato was also very special. The noodles come out perfectly al dente, and the broth is, again, rich and fragrant without being overbearing. Surprisingly, I also really liked the Eight treasure rice pudding with sticky toffee. It was a great twist on a traditional Chinese dessert, and the slightly salty caramel paired with the ice cream and sticky rice was a nice conclusion to the meal. The wines on offer were also excellent, especially the dessert wine. We tried a South African straw wine, which was very very special and unique. Overall one of my favourite meals in New York as of yet. Very innovative, very hard to book, but very worth it.“

“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!“

“I made the trek from Manhattan to try out Liar Liar. It definitely didn't disappoint. The food was beyond spectacular and the service was great. I highly recommend the chicken and waffles, they were the best I've ever had. The space itself is beautiful as well. A lot of original exposed brick and creative decorating that make you feel right at home. This place was built and designed with love, you feel it the second you walk in.“

“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!“

“I absolutely loved coming here and will be coming back! My friend and I were looking for a nice establishment in LES to have our quarterly girl chat lolll. Although we did not make Jadis HH (happy hour), we still wanted to experience going to a wine bar. Our server/hostess, Natalie, was very lovely and made great wine suggestions for someone like me, who is not particularly knowledgeable about wine. She was very informative and attentive, which gave us a nice balance compared to other establishments where staff might be overbearing/neglectful. We started with the Kir Royal drink (Natalie's recommendation) and it was just what I was looking for :) The burrata appetizer, which was perfecttt. I ordered the Branzino Fillet, and my friend ordered the Skirt Steak (from the big plate section). We were highly satisfied with both of our meals. The crème brûlée and Moscato were a perfect way to wrap up dinner. Usually, when I eat out, I always have to take leftovers, but everything was the right portion. Not too small or large...just the right amount for you make room for the next thing lollll. It's a perfect place for date night or if you want a quieter place to catch up with friends. My friend and I honestly had no complaints about each dish and drink that was brought out to us. I wish I had taken more photos, but I was too lost in the sauce with how good everything was. Plus, I like supporting family-owned/small businesses as well :)“

“Vanguard on the Upper West Side has become a staple for us since we moved to this area 4 years ago. The interior is so charming, the wine selection is always great (and rotates every season), and the folks who work there are absolute gems! Getting to know Isabel and Jacob behind the bar has been such a joy, and they always give the best recommendations. Don’t sleep on the charcuterie board and other light snacks - they’re all delish!“

“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!

We ordered the duck pastrami and the mushroom dumplings, both were delicious! Bread was so fresh.“

“Super Cody atmosphere with great wine selection“

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

“Had a wonderful time here for my birthday yesterday! Service and food were excellent, especially this tuna tar-tare Roxy-style with whipped avocado and caviar. The management also went out of their way to make my night, which I really appreciate. The Roxy continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in town!“

“One of the of absolute best places we visit in Manhattan, super cute and charming. Incredibly friendly staff and very delicious drinks. The decor is super cute and my whole experience there was great 💜💜💜💜“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“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.“

“Casual, friendly atmosphere,eclectic menu, looking forward to my next visit“

“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.“

“This place is so phenomenal. The bites are exquisite - each one bright and balanced. The vibe is immaculate - charming and cozy and intimate. But what really sets Elvis apart is the service. Sam, the bartender, is one of the best in the business: kind, attentive, and easygoing. Every human I’ve dealt with there has been so caring and lovely. You can tell they enjoy coming to this place to work and I can understand why. I love hanging out here. Great to hang with friends. Phenomenal for a date night. You could really bring anyone here and have an exquisite time. Really fair prices too. 10/10“

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

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

“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!“

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

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

And also the music… he s also the dj!!! :)
I can t say enough!!! I’ll be back again and again!!! See you soon Hugo!!!❤️❤️❤️“

“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!“

“Delicious food. Fresh, tasty, high quality ingredients. Huge portions. Great low key atmosphere. Joe, the owner, was welcoming, full of suggestions, and was a great person to talk to. Will definitely be going back.“

“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.“
