What a treat we had tonight at the Antidote Wine Bar. We stopped by right at closing and Chris the owner (and the cheery lady from Brooklyn) were gracious enough to let us have a nice glass of wine. We started chatting and it turned into two glasses and a very friendly and interesting conversation. Thank you Chris and special mention to Eric who was very accommodating after closing time and very professional. We are thinking about going tomorrow night. A real treat.

Nice place, good wine selection, French food, amazing taste, delicious Small plates. Wine list starts from 40 and up, starters from 7-10, and main 16-20 …

Perfect place for after work drinks and nibbles. We sat at the bar. Amazing wine selection and they do nibbles like olives, cheese, charcuterie.

Great selection of natural wines. The food was very good too. The staffs were were friendly but it was really busy that we had to keep asking them for water. However, they do not provide gluten-free breads.

Really good wine list. You can shop for wine too. The anchovies and rillete were really good. Nice outdoor seating to people watch.

I stopped by today to get a gift for a friend I know is into natural wine and I mentioned that I know little about it. I bought a bottle with Chris (the English one) and then I had a couple of glasses of wine with some cheese to learn a little while I'm here. The wine was good and Chris was very informative and social. He clearly knows wine very well but was patient explaining it to someone who's new to this type. I recommend this store to you whether you want to buy wine bottles or have a drink here they all seem to do this for the right reasons. Passionate about wine.

Gorgeous little wine bar! Beautiful atmosphere very friendly staff and great natural wines. Will definitely be one of my top recommendations

Spectacular spot for wine and charcuterie. Would HIGHLY recommend the pictured wine — a chilled red that was incredibly juicy and refreshing — chef’s kiss, the Burrata with peaches, and a board to split. The atmosphere was hopping, yet quaint for a weekend night. Loved every minute here. Will be coming back!
