Great wine list, tasty chocolates. ”
- “
With such a huge wine list, though, who would? ”
- “
The design is awesome - sleek and modern and though they leave the lights dimmed, there is lots of soft, flattering lighting as well. I'm a real foodie and I can't stop going back to Ayza. I love that they have a menu of staples, but change out key items ”
- “
The wine was great and we had this mushroom pita thing and some hummus and both really blew us away. ”

Ayza is a nice place to come with a date to have a glass of wine or to sample chocolate. ”

All she wanted to do was recommend the wines by the glass -- which seems silly since I was prepared to order something much more expensive. ”
- “
We loved our wines and the cheeses the waitress picked were great, and served in the most stunning manner. ”
- “
The only drawback was that they wouldn't let me make a reservation so we had to wait a while, but that meant a glass of wine at the bar to get the night going, which was actually a really nice extra. ”

Nonetheless, the wines are stellar and the food delish. ”

They have a good winemenu and some great drinks as well. ”
- “
Its a great palce to bring a gal for a drink or for dinner. ”

The waitress was very nice, but the menu was far from considered a wine bar. ”

It started out with just a trickle and now it's this hip wine bar that wars some of the best wine bars in New York, a city that's full of them. ”

They have this really cool space that's totally urban chic, with the steel and wood and all the wine showing upstairs. ”
- “
Yes, there's good chocolate and good wine. ”
- “
The server, who had brought over our wine glasses put the menu on the table, which she put down "standing" Before we knew it, the menu tipped over, crashing into the full glass of red wine and a glass of water. ”

And they have a really robust menu and some great wines by the glass, but no one is as pretentious as they are in some of the other trendy wine bars. ”

They have great wines by the glass too. ”

The owner came by and helped us pick a great wine and we had this amazing meal. ”

Ayzy has delicious truffles from Jacque Torres, and paires them with great wines. ”

The food is divine and they do a really good job of helping you pick wines that will go with it. ”

The neighborhood is not so exciting, which makes it even nicer that this fabulous wine bar has graced its streets. ”

The whole wine and chocolate concept is brilliant. ”

felt Ayza was a little pricey and the appertizers were not the best but it's a wine bar I can't expect anything more. ”

Thank you for being amazing and a great wine bar in a city of lot of wine bars that all start looking the same You are not the same. ”

I'm not a wine snob, butI hate it when wines by the glass are just the crp wines that taste like they come from a box. ”
- “
Still the food's pretty good and that have a nice wine list. ”
- “
In my book, that makes it the best wine bar in New York. ”
- “
I'm not usually a fan of sweet wines, but they have this white port that's so good -- and the whole thing is just luxe and lovely -- it's cool but friendly and the outdoor patio is a key -- and amazing spect since lots of wine bars are a bit sitfiling. ”
