21W 52nd Street (between 5th Ave & Avenue Of The Americas) New York City NY 10019+1 212 582 7200
21 Club embodies the essence of classic New York City and it is here where you can have a taste of old New York glamor at its best. The signature drink is a "Southside", invented at 21 Club and this bar has been pouring manhattans since the days of prohibition. It is a graceful townhouse setting with a Club Room complete with humidor, and a Wine Cellar tasting menu; but the famous 21 Burger (Slide ... read more > -

2 E 55th St The St. Regis Hotel New York NY(212) 710-2277
Named for the Adour River which flows near the chef's hometown - Adour Alain Ducasse is evidence to the great chef's return. It is fashionably wine-centric in rather a grand venue housed in the St. Regis Hotel. Designer David Rockwell calls the interior “wine-inspired" in a back-to-basic theme, decorated mostly by well-stocked wine coolers, suitably framed with wrought-silver grape vines. The chef ... read more > -

Veritas was the daughter of Saturn, the mother of virtue and the goddess of truth in Roman Mythology – Veritas means truth and having a good time with food and wine. This restaurant and wine bar is neither stuffy, nor overbearing and will impress without being pretentious. The wine list belongs to the original wine-geek club; when the owners realized they had 3 000 bottles and weren't able to take ... read more > -

36 E 4th St (between Lafayette St & Bowery) New York NY 10003(212) 375-0100
House-made pasta, Sicilian meatloaf, classic ragù Bolognese, house-marinated olives and peppery Ligurian olive oil swirled in linguini with baby clams – diners at Aroma Kitchen and Wine Bar can often not believe their luck. This Italian restaurant dips into a variety of regional cuisines and the bonus is Vito's (the sommelier) wine list which is all-embracing in Italian array. Patrons who drop in ... read more > -
