I recommend this place.
My companion and I came for dinner on Thursday night, our waitress suggested the $45 prix-fixe menu, and the options were great. The wait time was short, and we were seated in the back of the restaurant where it wasn’t too noisy. Overall, a very nice atmosphere perfect for a date night.

Great food but bad service (inattentive and low enthusiasm) and the chairs are TERRIBLE. All of the bar chairs have a leg that’s off balance and seat cushions that are slightly tilted down so you feel like you’re falling.

I wanted to finally visit the little wine bar, not far from my new home and do some work this evening. I wasn’t super annoyed when the water was poured so high that it overflowed on my clothes, or when I ordered a glass of wine and was brought out the incorrect one or when they brought out the wrong food order, or even when I asked for the check three times. I was disappointed when I saw that a gratuity was added, and I was a solo Diner. Perhaps this is a practice because they have sadly encountered multiple people who were not considerate enough to tip however, as a restaurant and Bar Owner myself, it is a minimum requirement for me to tip 20% even when the service is mediocre. I generally tip 40 to 50 as a practice when service is good. I don’t know what to attribute the need to add a gratuity for a party of one, but I at least took solace in knowing that I tipped the back waiter more than the gratuity that was offered from the server. My hope is that the owner or whomever the decision-maker is reads this review from a fellow Restaurant Owner and simply does better so that customers don’t feel as unappreciated. Again, if this has been a common practice and several servers have left without being adequately compensated, this action is justified. I can only express how it made me feel.

A cute little vibe just go get you some wine and chill inside there. I really like the vibe.

The service here is deplorable. Last night around 8:30pm Sunday 9.21. The bartender wasn't welcoming, no greeting or hello and then proceeded to chat with guests at the end of the bar for an extended period of time. Completely ignoring my friends and I waiting to place our order. Then my friend asked if we could order and one of the servers (Russian girl with a bun) said she's not responsible for taking orders and said the bartender is busy and to just wait. She gave us an attitude and was really rude. Then we just decided to leave and she continued to argue with me and go back and forth about it. i've never had an experience like this at an establishment and it's my 1st time writing a review! I will NEVER go back to this place. Really bad team and they need to rework their staff & management. ASAP.

Burgers good, fries decent, ambiance good, servers kind. The Caesar salad tasted like something out of a bag, maybe it was? The crackers were stale on charcuterie board.

Hot night in New York. We decided to have dinner indoors, but the air conditioning was off, which made it quite uncomfortable. The Barawine Burger was very tasty, but when it came time to pay, they had already added almost a 24% tip with no option to change it, and then they asked for an additional tip on top of that. This was our second time here, but we don’t think we’ll be coming back because of this abusive practice of trying to charge customers extra tip.

I went to Barwine on Lenox Avenue in Harlem with my friend and her husband, and it was such a nice experience. The place has an upscale but cozy vibe—very clean, stylish, and tucked away in a great spot.

My friend’s husband ordered the leg of lamb, my friend had a steak, and I went with the chicken Caesar salad. Everything looked amazing, and we all agreed the food was delicious. I had to drive, so I just had a ginger ale, but it paired perfectly with my meal.

It wasn’t too busy since we went kind of late, which made it even better—calm, relaxing, and a perfect setting to enjoy a good meal. The service was on point, and overall I’d give the food and the whole experience a 10/10.

Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to!

Average food, terrible service. Our waiter kept forgetting about us so I had to track her down multiple times. I could understand if the restaurant was crowded, but it was fairly empty. I will never eat here again.

Can we talk about the sloping bar seats?!!! Like WHAT?! Wine selection is subpar. Sangria is your best option. Food, meh!
However, great location to ppl watch.

There’s a point of France here in Harlem. The ambiance is cozy and warm with ambient lighting and great drink specials at the bar. The house Rosé is delicious and a nice pairing for the season. We went for Valentine’s Day and there is not any strangers here just folks you never said hello to. Wonderful date night atmosphere and nice size portions with a French flair!

Don’t walk, run here and stay a while.

One of my to go to places in Harlem, beautiful looking lounges .

Only negative I have is that the service is inconsistent. Not sure if it the lack of staffing. But overall I still love the spot
