50 Best Wine Bars near North Arlington

“Excellent service and food. Accommodating for dietary needs. They even took our group earlier than our reservation which was much appreciated as we were all from out of town and heading home immediately following lunch. Roasted potatoes, chicken francese, eggplant parm and sausage with peppers all got rave reviews.“

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

“Wonderful experience! The shrimp was delicious, the bread was fresh and perfectly balanced with the oils the shrimps are cooked in. The fish was perfectly cooked and you can’t skip the devils food cake! Sat at the bar and bartender was welcoming and very helpful as we assessed our choices.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Excelente, very nice, lo recomiendo!“

“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!“

“Super Cody atmosphere with great wine selection“

“This place has the dining texture of a Paris Bistro. The execution of dishes is classic French with asian & latin flavor profiles mingled in. Duck Rillets GET IT! Beet Salad. Order 2. This place doesnt miss many if any steps. Tight & Thoughtful wine-list excellent service. Also ask the knowledgeable staff about the speakeasy scene nearby….“

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

“Great service and a wonderful frose“

“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 💜💜💜💜“

“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!“

“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“

“This wine bar/lounge was a very nice surprise. We stumbled into it and were very pleasantly surprised about the quality of service, drinks, and food. The cocktails were artfully prepared in a beautiful thin glasses (I had La Rosa, with floral gin and clarified grapefruit and rose water with a hint of pink peppercorn, and my company had a classic martini), served ice cold. We tried two tapas-sized dishes: Quesadilla De Huitlacoche came with warm, hand-made corn tortilla with scrumptious corn mushrooms (huitlacoche) with delicately tangy Oaxacan queso. Flautas de Res -- rolled up crispy thin corn tortilla with fork-tender, juicy stewed beef rib eye -- were exceptional. It was bursting with flavor, absolutely one of the best Mexican food I have eaten. The staff were super attentive, professional and cordial and made us feel welcome an well cared for. This is a beautiful place and I would definitely come back!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“CARTA Wine Bar New York is a cozy, intimate spot perfect for unwinding over a great glass of wine. The selection feels thoughtful and well-curated, with options for every taste. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, ideal for quiet conversations. It’s a charming place to slow down and enjoy the moment.“

“The best wine bar in the West Village, a true neighborhood gem with an impeccably curated wine list and every bottle somehow feels like the perfect choice. The team is warm, knowledgeable, and led by real wine expertise without a hint of pretension.

Come for a glass, stay for a bottle, and enjoy delicious food too. So grateful to have a place this special in the neighborhood. Highly recommend.“

“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.“

“We dined at Farra during a later seating, and it immediately felt more like an intimate theater than a restaurant. The open kitchen is the stage, the chef at center, while the staff moves with precise, almost balletic rhythm. Watching the room flow was captivating in itself.

The food was exceptional—each dish visually composed with clear intention. We started with a raw tuna preparation that delivered a refined balance of spice and texture. The standout of the evening was the ravioli, coiled elegantly in a comforting miso broth. The mild shrimp filling allowed the deep umami of the broth to shine, creating a dish that was both thoughtful and memorable.

The duck showcased subtle asian influences, with a peanut layer and grapefruit providing a striking contrast of richness and brightness.

Dessert was also visually pleasing and had a wonderful taste as well.

Service elevated the experience even further. Sage and Heather were warm, approachable, and genuinely engaging, with an impressive grasp of the wine list and intuitive pairing recommendations.

Some come to New York for Broadway—we come for food. Farra delivers a performance worth applauding: beautifully synchronized, expressive, and deeply satisfying from start to finish.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Somm Time is a cozy wine bar with a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The selection is thoughtfully curated, making it easy to discover something new and interesting. I enjoyed the simple, well-paired bites alongside the wine. The atmosphere feels intimate and easygoing, and the friendly service makes it a great place to unwind.“

“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“

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

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

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!!!❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of hosting my engagement party at Parcelle Chinatown, and it was truly an incredible experience. The downstairs private space is intimate and perfectly suited for a cocktail-style event of up to 60 guests.

From the very beginning, Art was extremely responsive and attentive and honestly, he’s the reason I chose this venue. Finding a great space in NYC is one thing, but finding someone who manages events with this level of care and professionalism is rare. He went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered and that the evening unfolded exactly as I envisioned.

The entire team was exceptional. The bartenders were quick and consistent, and the service overall was seamless. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the hospitality and the food.

I’m so grateful to Art and the whole team for such a smooth, beautiful, and unforgettable night. Everything was executed flawlessly!“

“This is a bit of an upscale tapas bar, knowledge staff, not obtrusive. It did remind me of some upscale places in Spain. Go eat tapas the Manhattans with chocolate rim omg! Food was good too!“

“Vibes here are so laid back and the happy hour specials are so affordable. It feels like an oasis compared to the surrounding bars.

Bartenders are so chill and talented. Shout out to Al for being such an awesome person to talk to. If you are waiting on a res to a nearby place, this is the place to hang out“

“The food & service were great! Will definitely return.“

“This is a super cute little spot. It has a very charming heated back patio if you are looking to have a drink with a friend safely during the pandemic.“

“Coming to sauced brings a wholeness to that you’ve been searching for your whole life. It will shape you as a person, as a wine drinker, as a new yorker. The unpretentious front gives away when you enter and the sweet staff invites you to find your place. If you have later plans, cancel them because you won’t want to leave and all other experiences will diminish in mere thought. For any scenario, sauced is where you should be. For any night, you will be well taken care of. For a spectacular night, Pasha and Eric will redefine excellence.“

“A truly memorable brunch experience. The rooftop setting is stunning, with elegant décor, beautiful natural light, and a relaxed atmosphere. The perfect place to enjoy a leisurely brunch and take in the unique ambiance. Highly recommended.“

“Every time we take a trip into the city, we make sure to visit the Cookshop. Love the staff. So friendly and they make the best margaritas! Jiro (sorry if I’m misspelling) is a great bartender.“

“Best place in New York, great people and great wine!“

“Food is very good and staff very attentive though menu limited. It's too loud! Music is fine but not when you can't carry on a conversation or hear the servers. I don't understand why anyone thinks that's a good thing.“

“I went to Harry's for my birthday dinner while visiting NYC in May 2025. Everything was absolutely perfect. Best beef wellington I've ever had. The service was outstanding. The drinks were delicious and the creme brulee topped everything off. I plan to dine there everytime I visit NY. I would recommend to any and everyone.“

“Accueil est cordial, le personnel professionnel , la nourriture est très bonne. Un petit coin de Provence à New York. Ambiance sympa 👍🏻“

“I stopped in yesterday with my girlfriends as a trio exactly at 5pm and we were able to get a booth. I loved the cute decor. 90s music and relaxed atmosphere. The shining star of the evening was the Happiest Meal deal…. Do not skip the burger! It is so delicious. We tasted a variety of aeperol spritz’s which were all tasty but my favorite was the classic. Our server Ike was super attentive and friendly, gave us helpful recommendations and playful banter, such a sweetheart. We will definitely be back for Happy Hour (and the burgers). Thanks for a great girls date.-Veronica“

“I’m a long time fan of Bees Knees. Best place ever!
Find this perfect hideaway with the most delicious selection of cheese and wine. Among other deliciousness. Did I mention it was delcious?! lol And they have an adorable outdoor area!“

“Fantastic wine selection and friendly staff. 😊
The glass entrance door, however, decided to make a dramatic exit and broke as I left — I ended up testing the emergency room. Highly recommend the wine; do not recommend the door's stunt work 😬“

“A hidden gem that deserves a great review. I️ worked in Newark for years, and a place like this is exactly what the city was missing. The bottle selection is interesting - not the usual suspects. And the music sets exactly the right mood.

Newark needs more small businesses like this. It's the type of place that'll bring the energy back to this city. Will definitely be back.“

“Dara is a great bartender!“

“The food was delicious and the service even better! Definitely a must when in New York. The dessert was amazing with a tad sea salt to end off the night. The general manager Asher was quite the hoot and always made sure that his people were taken care of!!“
