Editorial Review for Bin No. 220 – by David MacFadden
In Short
Masculine furnishings like steel stools and original brick walls recall the neighborhood's industrial age, but the fishmongers have long since vacated, and now the young and well-dressed haunt this sexy nook. The exclusively Italian wine list is divided according to the personal selections of co-owners Calli and Sandy, with 20 choices available by the glass. A small-plates menu features both panini and tramezzini (Italian-style club sandwiches).

Had the red flight of the day and shared the cheese plate. The wine was overpriced, but good. The service was excellent--friendly and attentive. The wines were explained, but the cheeses were not--leading to suprise cheese taste testing...and the cheeses used, while generally highly edible, were all very uniform in texture and color, making for a bland presentation). The large-sized plate was generous enough for three. Was worried there were only stools before going, but there were some comfier tables. Other menu selections looked interesting, but slim. In general, the prices were on par or better than at other wine bars, likely in part because of the ultra-cute and cozy, but remote (in Manhattan at least) location off of South St. Seaport. I would go again.

me and my girlfriends love going to this place, we always share a bottle of wine with a cheese plate. It's totally relaxing, no waiter trying to rush you out, no men trying to pick you up, no tv showing sports. It's like the perfect bar for women-and as it turns out 2 women own it, so I guess they built it that way! Way to go! and as a perk the guy who works there is very cute and so charming.
Pros: atmosphere
Cons: none
