Entwine

This trendy little restaurant in meatpacking could have been great but everything really fell short when I went this past Saturday night. A group of friends and I made a reservation for 8 people that they gladly took. Once we showed up to sit down though the host had told us that they were having a private party in their downstairs space and that we would have to move an hour into the meal. I’m not sure what kind of restaurant would think people are ok with their server coming to the table in the middle of the meal and making the entire party move to another spot. If I wanted to do that I wouldn’t have chosen this mediocre restaurant in the first place. After arguing with the host for 10 minutes and threatening to leave they magically found a spot for us in the back room.
Once we sat down things seemed to be going fine. The server we had was very nice and the drinks were quite good. If I didn’t enjoy the drinks this would be a 1 star review. Atmosphere is bland. If you like sitting in a dimly lit room with boring music this is the place for you!
The menu isn’t very extensive. Mostly small plates with a couple main dishes. We ordered a cheese board to start which was fair. I ordered their chicken sandwich. The food looked pretty good when it came out but once I bit into my sandwich I was extremely disappointed. To call it a chicken sandwich is fraudulent and that’s being nice. I think there was maybe one chicken wing worth of chicken on that sandwich. It really felt like I was just eating a bad grilled cheese on a brioche bun or something.
Before I forget, the place totally forgot to make my friends order of the chicken thighs. Everyone else at the table had finished eating. When we asked to cancel it she assured it would be right out. Of course it would… We agreed to wait a bit longer but told her she must take it off the bill. She reluctantly complied with our request.
I really wish that my group and I just left to find another place to eat. Entwine was utterly boring with mediocre food and a pretentious staff. Definitely do not recommend.

Very sweet and cozy little place, but the music was too loud and, above all, completely inadequate. Here you’d expect some quiet jazz or blues rather than loud 70s disco and 80s rock hits.

Intimate than the other neighboring bars; friendly staff and bartender, awesome drinks!

Nice bar in west village. Very calm. Great for dates. Food not bad. We took lamb chops, mezze platter and kale salad. Kale salad was kind of useless containing kale, grapes and almonds only. The décor is very cute. I think i will come back.

It’s my favorite place in the West Village to have a conversation over some drinks. I’ve been going for about a year, and the quality is consistently good.

Excellent little wine bar. There is a bar up front, with a small room in the back and an outdoor patio. We had requested a table on the patio, but quickly requested to be moved inside. It was a cool summer night, but the patio was somewhat stuffy. The other problem with the patio is that the downstairs kitchen ventilates up into the patio, so there is a smell of exhaust and grease. Nevertheless, the request to be moved inside was happily granted. The wine list is a little pricey, but the wine is good. It skews heavily to the reds, but the whites are good as well. Service is helpful and friendly. It was a pretty full house and there were only 2 servers, but there was never any delays.
Tip for the guy sitting at the table next to me. This is a classy little place. You probably should’ve realized that they don’t server Red Bull before you ordered it!

Found this great little spot off the beaten path in West Village. Great drinks and food. I tried the avocado toast and ordered the Simit sandwich. We had a cheese assortment for an appetizer to start. The toast was very good. The sandwich was just perfect. Thank you for the great experience!

Came here for a couple of cocktails before a dinner. Could you please take longer to bring us 2 drinks? That would be great — its a Saturday night and I am thirsty. For the inflated prices I expect my server to have a little jump in their step. Instead as we exited, we saw the server and the bartender watching youTUBE videos on a cell phone. Disappointing.

Such a gem! Had a great time with friends in the downstairs area the space/​drinks/​service was perfect for a 30^th birthday party!

Beautiful rustic bar area and cute outdoor patio. While the ambiance is there, the food falls flat — the beets in the beet salad were canned, the meze platter was lacking in taste and the Turkish cured meat (pastourma) was prosciutto on a good day. I wanted to like this place and thought the staff was friendly but the food was disappointing.

I wanted to love Entwine, I really did.
Atmosphere is definitely the best thing about Entwine– I’d give it 5 stars with no hesitation. The inside is intimate, cozy but not crowded. The back room has nice art (I liked the «van gogh») and a fireplace. There’s outdoor seating, too, in the back, which looked lovely.
I went for brunch, which is perhaps where I went wrong. I just was not impressed by the food. I ordered an omelet, and it was ok, but nothing special. The bread that came with it seemed a little stale to me. It was also rather small.
Our service was slow and not very friendly. Looking at the other reviews, perhaps I just had a one-​off experience.
I wouldn’t return for brunch, but I might try it again for dinner and/​or drinks.

I planned a going away party here and at least 6 people showed up that I had not planned on! The staff was beyond accommodating (we moved 3 times) and so wonderful! Food was amazing and of course the drinks were divine! We sat outside for a bit and then moved into the back room and both were comfortable. I can’t say enough about the staff and how kind they were, despite being very busy.

Would never recommend this place. It took about an hour and a half before we got our order, which was just wine and one appetizer. We got the mushroom/​goat cheese toasted bread and it was cold and small with no flavor. They were also out of the first three wines we tried to order. When we asked if there was space to sit outside the waiter was extremely rude and hostile. Also extremely expensive for what you get.

Fantastic drinks! I had the Grapefruit collins and bloody mary! Food was so-​so, was expecting a bit more for the price (Grilled chicken sandwich was mostly bread and had very little chicken) and no sides were served, so it wasn’t quite enough for a hungry crowd. would definitely go back for the drinks though!

I can never say enough in regards to how much I love this spot. Their food is great, the bar staff are knowledgeable, and inventing and experimenting with new cocktails and concoctions on a weekly basis. Fantastic late night spot, seats in the back, or at the bar is my personal favorite. They also have a gorgeous and intimate party/​dining room downstairs with a full bar, great for private events.
Love this place

PRO: Perfect, intimate NYC hideaway. Seriously: stay out, this place is MINE.
CON: Not always easy to get a spot inside.
Hard to beat this one. Atmosphere is intimate, lighting is perfect, food is affordable and inspired, drinks are fantastic and the bartenders are charmers. Again, don’t go. You’ll hate it. Stay out. ;)

Go here if you want an intimate atmosphere that Isn’t too loud and has quality drinks.
The service is excellent. The bar tenders & waiters/​waitresses are very polite and attentive. There is a decent drink selection focusing around whiskies, craft beer, and wine. The food is delicious as well.
The prices were a little high but not relative to the immediate area. It’s also a little too cozy. I’m 6“4′ and all of the tables felt very small to me.
Definitely a good date spot.

Entwine is by far my favorite bar in NYC. I have known the owners for years and all are wonderful guys. I always feel at home at 765 Washington; my birthdays, NYE, suggesting friends have parties here (so I will attend), I’m always beyond content! The drinks are great, although I typically stick to straight whiskey. Efes is always a good go to beer. My favorite spot is at the bar (great for people watching), downstairs is lovely and perfect for larger parties… the patio is perfect for an afternoon drink in the summer time. Go visit! Highly recommended, just save me a seat at the bar ;) Oh yes, the food is delish and perfect amounts for when you need to soak up a little wine.

I was here last night for a group meeting. I didn’t order any food, so my review is more about the general experience that I had there. I ordered only one glass of wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon, which was delicious, though I was surprised by how strong it was. Please note, there is no longer a happy hour here, which I’d been expecting to find, so if you’re arriving early, be prepared for a pleasant experience! But the drinks and prices are only the ones on the menu available on their website.
When I arrived, I chatted with one of the women tending the bar at the upstairs bar, she was very sweet even though I only ordered a glass of water while I was there. The group meeting took place downstairs, which was a gorgeous little room, lots of dark wood and great mood lighting. Not a huge amount of space, but more than enough for my group of 7 and for several other people who were there too. There is a separate bar downstairs, and the bartender there was really nice and attentive too. It was a great setting for the meeting, quiet enough for an enthusiastic conversation, and almost home-​like in its intimacy.
There’s a back room upstairs, where a different party was going on, and there’s a patio too, which I didn’t get to see. I really liked the location, I definitely think I’ll be back to experience more!

If I lived in New York, I would be going to this place all the time.
I first fortuitously stumbled upon Entwine on Unilocal on one Saturday afternoon last summer when my friends and I were looking for a bar in the Meatpacking District/​West Village area. We were asked whether we wanted to be seated indoors or in the outdoor patio. Obviously, we choose the latter because that’s what you do in NYC in the summer.
Between the four of us, we split a carafe of tropical rum punch, which was very delicious combined with a powerful dose of rum. It was a bit on the pricier side, but totally worth it if you’re looking for high quality atmosphere and drinks.
About the atmosphere: the outdoor patio is so cute. The white brick walls, wall décor, strung «Christmas» lights, patio seats and tables. It was too perfect. The best part is that we managed to stay cool in the heat of the July afternoon. I would come here just for the patio.
Anyway, a few days later I made a trek back to Entwine. I sat in the patio again and ordered a glass of sangria this time. Surprisingly, the owner recognized me from last time so I didn’t have to show my ID again. And that’s the moment I knew that Entwine was a very special place.
Good vibes through and through. I hope to be back at Entwine again soon.
