I can’t believe I hadn’t been to Cello before this week! It is the quintessential wine bar - intimate feel, dimly lit and a wonderful vibe! I had two glasses of the happy hour Sauvignon Blanc but definitely want to return to try some of the delicious items on their menu. Special shout out and thank you to Yasmin for the wonderful hospitality and service! Highly recommend!
I feel like this place is a hidden gem and everyone needs to discover it. The food was so delicious and I mean every single dish that was served. We ordered appetizers and drinks. The old-fashioned was not only a great drink but when they smoked it in front of you, it was taken to another level. And the service was also top-tier. Extremely attentive, very kind, and welcoming, never left waiting for anything. I can't wait to visit again, I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant.
They have great wine options and fun cocktails with wine. Really enjoyed the quaint atmosphere.
A serious weekend of city walking only has one outcome.
A summers evening sangria.
Christ. I’d go back to New York just for a sip.
The perfect ratio of 10:1 (red wine:other ingredients).
The perfect clink of the ice cubes.
The perfect glass shape - massive, yet dainty… say what you like about that.
This was a treat.

Stumbled on to this place just walking down the street. Limited but solid food menu. Wine list falls short for a place with wine in the name but it was fine. Service spot on at first but drifted once food was served. I would go back for sure in hopes the service was an off night.
On our first night in New York, we wandered around and stumbled upon Cello Bistro — and what a beautiful place it is! We were immediately drawn in by the wonderful atmosphere. As we walked in, we could see the chefs preparing food, and it looked so good that we decided to order a few nibbles. Well, what can I say — the food was amazing! The flatbreads were incredibly tasty, and the dip we had was out of this world. I absolutely loved the place, and if I return to New York, it would definitely be one of my top spots to revisit.
A cute cozy place. Good for dates.
I love their rosemary garden cocktail
Really great atmosphere and really nice bartenders. The flatbreads are also really recommended. The Fig and Prosciutto Flatbread is our favorite.

I was looking for a place for a special celebration, being Friday night I thought it would be more difficult for me to find a place in the area without having reserved. Here they had free space and the atmosphere was pleasant, the musical selection was excellent and also the cocktails were very original, I recommend the mango one with a spicy touch.
Vegetarian options: There were several dishes for vegetarians, both snacks and main dishes.

Carlos and Steven are the absolute best!!! We visited from Boston and the second we walked in we were welcomed with warm friendliness. Steven takes his time and puts love into his food. He takes his craft serious. Carlos makes an amazing drink and has a great personality. I will be back!! Truly enjoyed my time with these guys 💕

My team and I for work put together a nice Networking Reception and had the pleasure of hosting it out at Cello Wine Bar last week. Cello and its' staff were beyond helpful and coordinated in the organizing, facilitation, and execution of the event. The food options (We ordered 5 platters) were all delicious and the open bar for a 2 hour event was very fairly priced. The event ran very smoothly thanks to the staff, and the team and I were VERY pleased with the event. The success of our event wouldn't have been possible without the team at Cello!
