    Great neighborhood wine bar. Lots of tables for 2 so a great spot for a date or to catch up with a friend for you to grab a cheese plate and a glass (or two) of wine.

    Love the decor and the ambiance in this bar. Great little gem to get together with friends or host an event. The bartenders are awesome.

    Try the Crème de Noyaux here. Pink in color, this Dutch liqueur gets its amaretto-like flavor from apricot kernels. It's also an ingredient in the Pink Squirrel. Read more

    Great new spot on the UWS. Great atmosphere, drinks and service. Extensive wine by the glass and bottle list. Cocktails are A+. Definitely a place to check out for drinks and a bite.

    Jennifer Klein, creator of The Dakota Bar is an "Upper Westside Wonder" says the NY Post. Winner of "Restaurateur the Year" and unanimous acclaim for her lovely creations, class, and special charm.

    Used to be light music and nice low-light ambiance. Even though lighting isn't bright, it's still more than before and music is loud Billboard Top 50.

    Solid uptown bar - a well-kept UWS secret with a great cocktail menu.

    Great menu, but they are definitely still working out some of their new-restaurant kinks.

    Pretty flashy new contender to add to the list of UWS wine bars. Roomy, great atmosphere, friendly staff.

    Low key spot. Good cocktails but very little beer selection. Nice ambiance at night.

    Great place for an afternoon glass of wine. Pretty large cheese selection. Maggie, at the bar, is really sweet!

    This place is really expensive and they only have bottled beer. Cool Sousaphone chandelier though

    Overpriced drinks and nothing special - was expecting more given the fame brought by the Beatles

    This place sucks - feels like one of those spots that you search and search for, then get here and it's a disappointment. As we speak "Grease Lightning" is playing.

    Overpriced for a mediocre wine list and cocktails, and freezer-to-microwave appetizers.

    $14 a drink for a very rude staff. Waitress rewrote our tip after we left!
