Turks & Frogs

On our list of the best wine bars in New York.

An antiques-laden room turns dark and cozy once the sun goes down at this wine bar. Mediterranean small plates and a cheese selection round out the menu, built to go with the wine rather than replace a meal. It opens at 5pm most nights and 3pm on Sundays, closing at midnight or 1am depending on the day. The wine list is the draw; people come for a glass more than a full dinner.
