I went there for the charcuterie board and wine. The staff was friendly, the lady server was patient and explained to me my options about the different meats and allowed me to taste the wine before making a final selection. I was disappointed since the menu for 2 doesn't apply for 1 person and they charge you $8 for each charcuterie or cheese selection. Charcuterie is both near, cheeses and some fruit in it but in this restaurant it's just the meat in the menu. Anyway, the lady server was more firm, didn't have a pleasant aura but was attentive and patient. The meat had a unique texture, I had prosciutto which tasted very hammy, the duck sausage was good and they only had one cheese available since it's seasonal which I didn't understand. The gentleman server gave me my bill and was very kind to me, very experienced and I liked his energy with the clients. The restaurant is clean, small and cozy. The food I selected or the cut of it was disappointing that's why my rating is 1 star. I didn't like it nor would I go back, wasn't for me. So for those looking to get a charcuterie consider going for a party of 2 or 4 and remember they only have one cheese if you're looking for more cheese options seek elsewhere. For one person it's more and they give it it you in a plate instead of getting a smaller board. They also served mine with some jam, and these tiny pickles of a sort, the bread is very soft texture and the interior was dark. The extra items weren't...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of visiting Lavaux Wine Bar in the heart of NYC, and it was truly an exquisite experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the stage for a delightful evening. The selection of wines at Lavaux is nothing short of impressive. Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur or a casual wine enthusiast, their extensive menu caters to all palates. The knowledgeable and friendly staff, specifically Jasmine, are more than happy to guide you through the options, ensuring you find the perfect pairing for your preferences. The attention to detail in the presentation of both the wines and the accompanying charcuterie board was exceptional. Each sip and bite felt like a journey through flavors, highlighting the thoughtfulness that goes into curating the menu. The cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere, complete with dim lighting and comfortable seating, created the perfect setting for an intimate gathering or a celebratory night out. What truly stood out at Lavaux was the impeccable service. The staff's passion for wine and dedication to customer satisfaction added an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. Their recommendations were spot-on, and it was evident that they genuinely cared about creating a memorable experience for every guest. Don’t miss out on the secret message party they do on certain nights too! Cheers to Lavaux for an unforgettable evening of great company and even...
Read moreI hosted a surprise birthday party for my husband here last night! 7 of us in the chalet. I booked about two months in advance because I have no chill (probably not necessary to book that early but it was for a December party so I wanted to make sure) and from the very beginning the customer service was wonderful! My original guest list changed a bit and they were very accommodating (from 11 to 7) and they also let me come a little early to set up some table decorations. Nathaniel was our host and also our server and truly made the night a success, from helping to choose the right fondue to coming up with a fake storyline to get my husband to go inside the restaurant and ask for my "work party's" reservation. The food, wine and service was lovely as was the chalet. It was quite warm inside for a mid-December evening and so cozy and adorable. They have a Bluetooth speaker inside and we designated a DJ and enjoyed lots of fun music. People were walking by us outside on the street telling us how fun and cute we looked! Just be careful of the bike lane as you enter and exit! ;) My guests had a blast. The entire night will be something my husband and I never forget. I probably won't plan another surprise party for a while (too much stress keeping secrets!) but this couldn't have gone any better and Lavaux (and Nathaniel!!) made it happen. I will recommend this...
