I love this shop! Thank you for opening on the UWS. I feel so overwhelmed in most wine shops that I buy the same bottle over and over again. But Amsterdam has a very friendly and knowledgable staff that I can explore different bottles. They seem to understand what I want for the night and give me the perfect choice.

I’m upset I didn’t turn around & walk right out!!! We walked in and there were 2 guys at the desk carrying on a conversation b/w them & not once did they acknowledge us. A simple«hello, how are you this evening?» goes a long way. While we were perusing the selection not once was help offered. Also, a simple«are you looking for anything specific?» Or even«let me know if you guys need any assistance.» goes a long way! None of that, not an acknowledgement that we were in their store, not a single word spoken until we checked out. After the transaction was complete, not a thank you, have a good night, nope we got«you’re all set» & that was that. There are plenty of other wine shops in the same neighborhood, please don’t waste your $ or time at this one

Great independently owned wine shop — highly knowledgable staff and exceptional selection. I really like that they carry relatively reasonable wines from small boutique wineries. A must try if you are looking for a great bottle without the pretension.

Great little wine shop. Went in there looking for liquor, which they only have a small selection of, specifically I was looking for peppermint schnapps which they did not have, but I was going to buy Tito’s and the man behind the counter suggested I try another vodka which was also made with potato and half the price. I appreciate when a sales person doesn’t try to push you to buy something for the price. It’s more of a wine shop and they actually had a tasting and I was able to try a sweet Pino Grigio which was pretty good. I’d recommend this place if you’re interested in wine, they staff seems very knowledgable and the prices were fair.

I am a fan of this store. I appreciate the selection and most of all its customer service. The staff are knowledgeable of its wines AND they are incredibly approachable.

This wine shop, tucked between a greeting card & paper product place and a florist has the most varied selection of mid-priced range wines, and a fantastic assortment of spirits from small distilleries, often local. Check out their Gin selection, I found it terrific. The staff is very low-keyed, but extremely helpful… and they know their stuff. They have definitely become my go-to place for wines and spirits, and that’s from someone who has 6 other choices within a 5 block radius. The missing star is because sometimes, when entertaining, you need that ‘magnum’ sized bottle of something, but this isn’t that kind of place.

I’m pretty sure the UWS already has the most wine shops per capita of any neighborhood in the free world, but this is still a very welcome addition, as it specializes in small-batch and artisanal bottles that will intrigue even the most seasoned lush. I’ve been pretty impressed with the $ 15-$ 20 wines we’ve tried so far, and we’ve also picked up a few nice bottles of spirits from little-known distilleries. To the extent this store is offering spirits found elsewhere, the prices are usually about 10% higher, so that costs ‘em a star, but otherwise pretty much perfect.
