Vinatería - Broad Channel

This was my friend's last place to try out before she went back to France, and we had a wonderful experience dining here. The service was great even prior to us arriving at the restaurant since I called several times to ensure the kitchen would still be open. The kitchen was almost closing, and they allowed us to order in advance. Based on the reviews, we both ordered the black spaghetti. The black pasta was cooked perfectly and so flavorful! If you're into seafood, this is a must-have. We got the olive oil cake for dessert. This was delicious and not overly sweet. The service was great and we really enjoyed our dinner. I'm looking forward to going back and exploring more of the menu.

Excellent food, rich flavors. Nice atmosphere, quick service. I would wish for some light, even just votive candles or something for the tables in the middle where we were seated. It would also be great if the door was not kept open by waiting deliveries when it's freezing outside.

We loved our early relaxed dinner at this cute and comfortable bistro. The happy hour is a bonus with delicious bites and seasonally designed cocktails. We tried the bacalao croquettes and Bleu cheese fries. Then the black spaghetti with seafood in an olio sauce. Excellent! We will be back for the friendly vibe and good cheer that is sometimes hard to find in Manhattan. Thumbs up. Make a reservation if you know your plans as this place is a soon to be sought jewel.

Vinatería is such a special place. Everything we ordered was delicious, the vibe is great, and the service is warm and welcoming. Can't wait to come back :

My first time here. There was no consistency in portion or presentation of the food. The mac and cheese was not cheesy at all the sauce was not equally distributed throughout it had some dry spots and it was overly salty. The blue cheese french fries lacked imagination had 2 to 3 sprinkles of crumbles not sure if the french fries were hand cut and the ketchup was out of a bottle. Some people received 4 pieces of foccacia and we only received 3 and the foccacia was not served warm. The Thyme drink was extremely bitter. Great location and the restaurant could be cleaner and needs a little maintenance attention.
