What People Are Saying About Bar Veloce
The Editor

The Scene – This wine bar practically gleams on this slightly shabby stretch of Seventh Avenue. Its frosted-glass entrance leads into a clean, almost gallery-like space. Inside, the object of veneration is clear: Brick walls set off the perfectly stacked rows of wine bottles behind the long, unfinished wood bar. Early in the night, arty neighborhood folks join with an after-work crowd. Later, a post-dinner and date crowd trickles in to enjoy the grown-up, but not stuffy, ambience. – – The Draw – If reasonably priced glasses of wine served by friendly suited bartenders…

Love this Place
by Luvable4u
All I can say is this place makes you feel relaxed and is a great place for glass of wine or a share bottle for a date or after a long day at work. Try the Solo Reggiano and the Olive Paste Bruschetta. Warm, cozy, and if the mood strikes, even romantic!
- Pros: Great Wine and Great Atmosphere
- Cons: Nothing

Thank God there are other locations....

Bar Veloce is a great set up. I frequent the one on 2nd ave, and decided to venture to this one because of the proximity to my office. I think Ill be staying on the east side from now on. The food and wine is always great here. The problem is the staff, actually just one bartender. When I think wine bar, I think personal cozy staff. However, the main bartender made me and my group feel akwardly uncomfortable. He needs to get off of his power trip and realize that the people who tip him are on my side of the bar. Seriously, I really felt insulted and had no idea why. I would reccomend Bar Veloce, just not this location.

Loved it!!!
by i_love_nyc
Read about Bar Veloces' in NY Magazine. We visited both locations last night and fell in LOVE with it. The overall experience was just simply fantastic. The service was cool and memorable, the bartender was very professional and not too chatty (we like that). The products they delivered was great! We'll definitely make this our hot spot in nyc!
- Pros: Service, Wines, Bar Snacks & Desserts, Atmosphere
