2012 | Best Place to be a Noncommittal Drinker

Great service and tasty small plates. But perhaps the best thing about Vinoteque is its approach to selling wine. Like most restaurants, several picks are available by the glass. Unlike most restaurants, you can buy into any bottle on their list, with a two glass commitment- each costing 1/3 of the bottle price. Once opened, the remainder of the bottle is now up for dibs by the single glass and is advertised on a list inside the restaurant. If you decide on thirds, the fourth glass is paid for and you keep the bottle. A really great rotation technique of a pretty impressive selection! A lovely spot for intimate gatherings and dinner parties.
