The Corcoran Group: An intense wine bar that you’ve probably walked by a million times and never noticed. The sommeliers are AMAZING as are the Ostrich Sliders and the Bobotie Pies.
Dulcita Coco: Perfect date night place with some of the best South African wines I've ever had outside of SA. Possibly my new fav wine bar in the city :)
Steven Vega: The best place in town for either a nice meal or wine and snacks. They have an amazing selection of wine, cheese and dried meats for their bar snacks as well as a great dinner menu.

Spanish Restaurant · Upper East Side · 72 tips and reviews
Nikki Vargas: A very charming tapas place with vines intertwined on the ceiling and wine bottles accenting the decor. Great food and wine. Small so better make a reservation if you have a big party
Spencer Vairo: Excellent happy hour prices for the area. The fries are amazing, get them with the special sauce and ketchup. Can't go wrong with either the red or white sangria, both are delicious
Ian Antal: I have a weekly craving for the Brussels Sprouts and prosciutto. Great range of wines and prices, and incredibly personable service. Wednesday nights live Spanish guitar music. PERFECT for dates!
Dana Markiewicz: GREAT hidden wine bar. Tell Heidi what you like and let her choose your wine...never a bad pick, plus EXCELLENT food!
Matt Kim: Menu changes frequently, but can't go wrong with any of the dishes. Great wine and bottle beer list. This place is tiny, though, so get here early!
Wendy: The paella is a amazing! Not too salty or greasy and the right amount of seafood chorizo! A great selection of wine. Call ahead to reserve a spot or risk waiting a while!

New York Habitat: This Michelin rated restaurant makes for a great special occasion dinner. The best value is had in the 3 course prix fixe, or you can splurge for the 6 course tasting menu with wine pairing.
Douglas Elliman: An elegant and high-end French eatery. The staff is always friendly and conversational. We love the eight-course “Grand Tasting,” which is paired with wine flights!
Daniel Boulud: My first restaurant will always have a spot in my heart. Go for the tasting menu with wine pairings and let our excellent team of chefs and sommeliers guide you through an enchanting meal.

Lynn: Not easy to accommodate a vegan but they rose to the occasion. Loved the tomato eggplant soup and the asparagus; great wine list too!
Amber G: Food is very English but delicious. Try the cocktails--they make great use of just beer and wine. And if you're lucky enough to get Renee as your waitress, all the better!
Anastasia Bezverkha: Tuna tartar and 🍺&🍷 selections!! Very cozy atmosphere. Good place to get a drink and avoid frat boy parties on the UES.
