Editorial Review for Cavatappo Wine Bar – by Leah Hochbaum
The Scene
So small it barely fits 20 people comfortably, this mini slice of the Upper East Side is dedicated to fine wines. Mirrors strewn throughout make a valient attempt at enlarging the space, while tiny touches include a collection of vintage and oversized corkscrews bedecking the orange and exposed brick walls, and bottles stacked ceiling-high.
The Draw
For the amateur, a helpful menu separates wine into tangible categories--"full-bodied and robust" like the '98 Shiraz or "floral and aromatic" like the '03 Pinot Grigio. With eager-to-please bartenders that also allow a taste test or two and then pour your pick generously, the experience is especially relaxed and mellow. The young local crowd engages themselves entirely in talk, with Top 40 tunes barely in the background, playing softly from overhead speakers.

Insider Tips
On the MenuFinger sandwiches like a humus and roasted pepper combo go well with a variety of wines.

We met some friends here for a quick drink before going to a night club - it was great - good service and very relaxed atmosphere. Nice to finally have a good wine bar close by.

Great place to bring family. My husband and I love it! Wine can be a bit pricey. but everything selected was very reasonable. Just a nice place to drink. We loooove wine.
Pros: You get everything you go there for.
