  I photographed an event here. It was very cool. The staff is very nice. Lots of space to spread out. Nice sound system and a great stage. Everything about this venue was amazing. The wine is out of this world. I highly recommend it. This is a New York City staple. Go get it!!!!

  They book great people here; the musical entertainment is amazing. The food is also good, and there are good, if somewhat overpriced, wine choices. The thing that kills it as a venue is City Winery's insanely annoying business model of putting 4 people at a 2-top...then 16 people at 4 2-tops pushed together. So you're guaranteed to have strangers sitting in your lap, and if you're really lucky (and I seem to be an awful lot) they will then talk through the entire set. The service is hit or miss; sometimes we get pleasant servers who really try to enhance the evening, and other times we get impatient, clueless, hassled folks. Upshot: don't go unless you really, really love the main act, and you don't mind listening to the next table (inches away) catch up with each other while you strain to listen to the music.

  Ive been a City Winery NY customer since they opened. This place is peerless. For those of us who mourned the loss of the Bottom Line, City Winery is the evolved successor. The room is much more spacious, the food and service is in another category altogether. Any of the few less than complimentary reviews here have to be very atypical and isolated since I've literally dined and been at 100+ shows in NYC and Chicago and can't say there's much that can be improved about any aspect of the CW experience. I've also spent a life in retail and the difficulty of having a large, ever-changing staff with thousands of customer interactions weekly who are as consistently on the same page as the CW staff is as rare and exemplary! They consistently go the extra mile and have always tried their best to please. No one's perfect, including some patrons, but my many City Winery experiences in both locations over the past 8 years have been consistently wonderful and beyond my always high expectations! The music, the staff, the food and wine make this a unique and special place in every way.

  Acoustically, City Winery is one of the best of the NYC boroughs vast and sundry small performance venues. High quality sound enhances the performances by skilled musicians (obviously, and it needs to be said). The meals at the Barrel Room, the adjoining restaurant, are terrific. The staff there, and those on the concert floor and behind the bar, are really good. Here is where my review may be different than those by many people who show up here: come to City Winery to see a concert and have a drink and go to Barrel Room to have dinner. Period. Full stop. Do not seek a dinner theatre experience when you buy tickets for a concert. Eat dinner first. Show respect for the musicians by not chomping food, clanking utensils, talking with people about your dinner, and detracting from not only your experience as a concert attendees but that of the audience members who are seated near you. While multisensory experiences are a modern thing, and they are indeed wonderful, people who expect to have a complete restaurant experience while professional musicians are performing 50 feet away from the table are bound to be disappointed. And their priorities are off. Come for the concert and a glass or two of wine or your favorite cocktail. Eat dinner before you arrive. THAT is how the experience at City Winery is best done.

  We had a horrible experience at the City Winery. Both the waitress and manager were rude and nasty to us. We ordered hamburgers and we waited more than an hour to receive our food. Other guests at our table came in and ordered food way after us and they received their food promptly. When we inquired about our food, the waitress told us that the manager was taking care of it. After still waiting more than 20 minutes later, I asked to speak with the manager. When he came to speak with me, he was very rude and obnoxious. After that, the waitress blamed me by saying that because I ordered "well done fries" that was why my order was taking so long--really? - over an hour! The waitress made several additional rude comments to us as the afternoon went on. At one point I turned to her and said-what did we do to you for you to treat us so badly? She just walked away. Unfortunately, I will never go back and I will never recommend the City Winery to anyone, even though it is a great venue to see bands. The music was great but there are so many other places to see great music and receive good service at the same time.
