Description: Located in a sleek industrial loft, this laid-back wine bar is perfect for both oenophiles and amateurs. The wine list features bottles from Spain, France, and Chile as well as American vineyards. A well-edited selection of beers can also be found on tap. The bar’s Mediterranean menu offers what chef and owner Alfredo Patino has dubbed “roadside Mediterranean cuisine.” On Tuesday, imbibers who show up with 5 CDs can play DJ for a bit with Patino’s mixing equipment. Those looking to hear more professional beats should visit on Friday nights when a real DJ spins. There are also appetizers that are priced reasonably, including staples such as French onion soup and pastas. Reservations can be made online during noon to midnight hours daily except Sunday. Take advantage of bottle specials on Monday and Tuesday.
