Restaurants With Cheap (or Free) Wine
By Citysearch Editors, New York
The economy may be in a slide, but why not reassess the situation as a glass half-full? Plenty of New York restaurants offer wine discounts, whether it's half-priced bottles at swanky eateries, prix fixe menus that include a bottle, or, for you super-lushes, free wine that just keeps on flowing.
