“Delicious food! Definitely coming back on date night!“

“Amazing“

“Food is amazing! Service goes above and beyond. Had the uni soba, truffle gnocchi, and the pork chop. Both noodle dishes were on the smaller side, but definitely worth every cent. The pork chop was massive, definitely would recommend sharing it.“

“My partner and I love cafe mado and have previously dined here but not in a minute.

Place de fetes was truly a 10/10 experience. They are so creative and seasonally aligned. The menu is delicious and exciting.

The service is wonderful and kind.

If you can, come here, order a lot and enjoy the nice vibes“

“Amazing food, great service and knowledgeable staff! Definitely recommend for vegans and non-vegans alike. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Neighborhood gem. Great decor, homey, comfortable but well appointed. I have dined here alone and with family, both times it was a good atmosphere. GM Michael is really good and runs a good staff. The food is delicious- good for all types of diet restrictions. Fresh ingredients well prepared. Last but not least also great cocktails. Host and server were friendly and attentive. I will for sure be coming back here!“

“The food is elite. High quality Italian at a reasonable price. Great atmosphere and service. Plus a great playlist softly played in the background. You need to make a stop here if in the mood for Italian.“

“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.“

“Did know what to expect but everything was absolutely delicious. I got the Baba Bowl and added avocado and the apple bottom drink was yummy!“

“We had a wonderful experience at Musette celebrating my husband’s birthday! They were very accommodating for our group of six, but I strongly recommend making a reservation!The evening felt easy and enjoyable from start to finish. The wine flights were excellent and a fun way to try a variety of options. Both the Musette flatbread and the salmon flatbread were absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. On top of that, the service was fast, friendly, and attentive, which really made the night special. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you Musette Team!“

“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.“

“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.“

“With Others has been my favorite wine bar in NYC for quite some time. I love stopping in with a few friends for a glass or bottle of wine and some snacks, or booking their Sunday wine school for a fun weekend adventure. I hosted a birthday party in the backyard a few weeks ago. Everything was perfectly handled! Lauren and the staff helped me pre-order wine and food and kept everything running smoothly. Would highly recommend for parties!“

“The place is a vibe. The atmosphere and esthetics is everything. It has a great vintage, cozy, bookstore mature feels with these bold eclectic open frames. Food is good. Well presented but lacks flavor. Where the food lacks in the drinks make up in style. Service is attentive but not amazing. Overall. Great time. Great vibes. Would recommend and go again for the feel, not the food.“

“Just the best. Favorite wine bar in the world, bar none (no pun intended… maybe a little though). Up until coming here for the first time four years ago, I was largely tepid (at best) when it came to wine. Then their incredible selection opened up a whole new door to wine I didn’t even know existed. Turns out, Eastern/central European wines are my favorite, and their thoughtfully curated menu never has any shortage of options to try and fall in love with. Bummed they don’t have their covid-era outdoor patio situation anymore, but thats obviously not that deep. Staff/somms are so kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and personable especially to chit chat with about wine or, like, anything else. Big thanks and love to them for helping me figure out what wine is my vibe. I love Ruffian always forever.“

“I did my 25th birthday celebration here and it was perfect! The staff was extremely attentive and made sure my guest and I were well taken care of the entire evening. The food and wine was delicious. If you are thinking about having an intimate event here, do it!!“

“We had a nice time, and the food was good. We were however told to leave as there was another reservation waiting (we were hence offered a drink at the bar which never came), and the doorman got angry at us for opening the door in the wrong way.
So would have been perfect if not for those two departure hick ups sadly.“

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

“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.“

“Amazing food and very friendly! Our waiter was a hoot and made the atmosphere even more entertaining and inviting. Thanks for showing this Tennessee gal- your Mediterranean ways 🤤😄“

“I had a really thoughtful and lovely experience here. We were celebrating a birthday and the team - starting with the door guy and then to the lead/captain, whatever they call it. They made sure to help us out in any way possible and I was fully ready to have a typical ny experience, where they just have no patience for groups. Thank you for all of your true and genuine hospitality! <3“

“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.“

“best place to enjoy wine and food. Friendly environment and staff! Highly recommended!“

“Cutest little neighborhood wine bar! The staff is very knowledgeable about all the wines they have available. (Shoutout to Austin and Tiffany.)
My friend and I stopped in on a Monday night after dinner. They let us try several different wines in order to make our selection.
Very intimate/cozy vibes and reasonable prices. Would be a great place for a date night!“

“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!“

“Loved the food and cocktail menu. You can tell that the establishment knows their food, wine, etc and it comes off in the drinks and food!“

“freakin awesome spot! they treat you like Famiky.. Bogart keeping the place safe and fun, Carlos mixing the most tastiest
cocktails (i had an old fashioned where Carlitos brought the smoke!!) and Chef steve filling that empty
void in your stomach. we cant wait to see you all again!“

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

“Great small and quaint bar next to the 7 line this was like my fourth time frequenting this wine bar. The bar itself is very cozy and with unique decor. Besides serving many wines they have cocktails with unique names and beers. We were there for happy hour and had wine with a spread. We also ordered a charcuterie plate. We enjoyed playing a card game and stayed until the jazz performers played their numbers. We really enjoyed our night.“

“Lovely place. We got the 5-course prix fixe, which let us sample lots of different dishes. Everything was interesting and delicious. The staff was so lovely, personable and warm. I won't lie, in these days of hard budgets, this will be a splurge for many (we went with the help of a gift card!). With tip, it came to about $250...that's a lot for two people. Was it worth it? Yes!! But is that kind of expenditure hard for many right now? Also yes. Still, I am so glad we went, and I am thankful to the staff for the great food and service. This place is terrific for a special occasion.“

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

“First time visiting Zagaya's and it was lovely! The food, service and ambiance were excellent.Very welcoming staff! I'm not a big cheese eater but I really enjoyed the cheeses we ordered. Loved the Apple Cider Tej (warm)! Perfect for a chilly night! Will definitely go again the next time I'm in Brooklyn.“

“I'm reluctant to spread the word about this amazing spot. The team maintains pleasant demeanors without exception. The bill aligns with what you receive. The food is worth coming back for! The place occupies a prime area and the staff was attentive throughout our visit.“

“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!!!“

“I cannot say enough good things about my experience at this restaurant. The food was spectacular. I will dream about it. Service was prompt and polite. Best middle eastern food I have had in a long time. If you are in the area, you must stop by. It’s worth it!“

“The food at Bar Bira was absolutely delicious! everything we ordered was packed with flavor. Service was great, friendly, attentive, and helpful without being pushy. I’m not a wine expert, but the staff did a great job guiding us to something we liked, which I appreciate it.“

“Fantastic service and wonderful wines!!“

“Bro They Created Like The Best Matcha I’ve Ever Had In My Life 😭 If yall come here. PISTACHIO Matcha Iced w Oat Milk. That shit is crazy. Life changing, It was so good I had to walk in and ask the manager the recipe for this. But I recommend anybody to try this if you trying to get into matcha“

“Great night of friends, family and wine!“

“Lots of fun….Get Jen as your waiter …1 of a kind!“

“Great atmosphere, great staff. They have pool (full size with no playing area restrictions), darts and bocce. An amazing selection of wines and sandwiches that are so big and fresh- it's a must visit. Mr. B Bar, an Italian bar in the heart of NYC. Located at 231 E 33rd St“

“Really cute wine bar with comfortable bar and table seating. Cocktails and wine on happy hour with dollar happy hour oysters. Lots of great charcuterie options! We had oysters, an espresso martini, and happy hour white wine. It was cozy and comfortable. Really liked visiting here“

“What a pleasant experience. It was a perfect place to hide from the rain and get an amazing cocktail and amazing bites. Its vintage and warm feel was incredibly inviting and comfortable. It's a perfect place for a first date, seventh date or a night out with friends. I had the privilege of having brunch here with a friend I hadn't seen in years and it was amazing. Service was great, but also gave us space and time to catch up. We ordered a perfect balance of sweet and savory. Would 100% go back.“

“We ABSOLUTELY loved it. The food was fantastic so delicious especially mama’s bread!! The wines were divine 🍷 🍷 😋 The owner was gracious and the service was awesome- we will be back!!“

It's such an ideal NYC neighborhood hangout- the food is ALWAYS outstanding, and the ambience (think cool jazz tunes, no tvs) is exactly what I need after a long overstimulated day.“
