She gave us great recommendations and we ended up going with two wine flights that didn't disappoint! She was super attentive, knowledgable, and made sure to check in on us frequently. Vibe: 5/5 The bar is super cute inside with wine glasses in the background of the bar. We came on a weekday evening and didn't have to wait for a seat at the bar. It's a relaxing envionrment to grab after work drinks or drinks with a friend!

Yelp is saying Corkbuzz has permanently closed, but I visited on Saturday (two days ago!!!) and…read morecan't verify the closure, so I'm writing a review assuming it's open! Corkbuzz is a wine bar inside Chelsea Market. While I typically find Chelsea Market a little too crowded and chaotic to be comfortable, my husband and I dropped in specifically for some wine and a snack in the later afternoon on Saturday. The wine bar is comfortable and cool. We grabbed a couple of barstools, ordered 1 wine (a Slovenian wine for me), 2 cocktails (for my husband; he liked the cocktail so much, he ordered a second), and a white bean dip with focaccia bread, that was garlicky and delicious. It was a comfortable place to enjoy a drink and a snack. I'd be happy to stop by again - if it's still open?!

My experience: Im a…read morebig believer of transparency. When I looked online, certain dish items were offered as part of restaurant week for $45. Those dishes were the reason I went to the restaurant. When I got the restaurant, some of those dishes I wanted were taken off the restaurant week menu. Talk about bait and switch for a seafood restaurant! I asked the server if they ran out of those dishes, he said no. So not coming back! Edited review: So why didnt the server know? if the restaurant makes changes, the restaurant should update both the server and their website as well as accomodate the customer for dropping the ball. So confused on how the server doesnt know what he's serving?

My first time visiting City Winery was for a magic show hosted by Anna DeGuzman. It was such a…read morelovely experience and an intimate night. The event took place in The Loft, which is a small venue, but with a great view of the stage. Doors opened at least an hour and 1/2 before show time. I do recommend arriving early to order food and drinks - service was very attentive before the show. It gets a little difficult to order food as the show is taking place. You can still flag your server, but it may take a longer wait time as the kitchen gets busier. Depending on your ticket, you may be sharing tables with other people, which I was okay with. I went with a friend to the show and ended up sharing the table with two other people. That can be off-putting for some people, so I wanted to make a note of that! Seating is several long tables or small tables stacked up against together. However, the food was delicious! We ordered a charcuterie board to share, margarita flatbread, and truffle mushroom flatbread. And of course, we had to pair our meal with wine! We ordered a delicious Riesling each. I recommend the City Winery for a date night or a fun girls' night out. They host a variety of events and wine tastings, so it's worth a visit!

I attended the 3:30 PM showing of Monday Night Live at City Winery on September 20, and…read moreunfortunately, the experience did not hit the mark. The first issue was that the elevator was broken which presented a huge issue of accessibility for those in need as the show was upstairs (a winding staircase). Assistance was offered however most folks with accessibility issues, functional independence is a priority for them. Secondly, City Winery why would you have seats, including Premier and General Admission seating, positioned behind the stage/screen when the visuals are clearly an important part of the production? I selected my seat without realizing that a significant portion of the show would involve visual content. From my seat, I was essentially sitting behind the back of the screen, and I could only see 2 of the 4 hosts. I understand that every seat in a venue can't provide the exact same view, but seats with a significantly obstructed view of the actual production should be clearly identified before purchase. If the visual component is integral to the show, sightlines should absolutely be taken into consideration when configuring the seating. Unfortunately, I ultimately left early because I wasn't able to fully experience the show from my seat. This isn't about expecting perfection. It's about transparency, thoughtful seating configuration, and giving customers the experience they're paying for. City Winery, please do better. At minimum, clearly identify obstructed view seats so customers can make an informed decision before purchasing.

It was a fabulous setup with beautiful strung up lights lining the ceiling. While we waited to be seated we were given glasses of sparkling white wine. Our waiter told us that the space for the JBF LTD was donated by one of the JBF board members. Very cool. Eventually, we were seated at our communal table and were given a green garden gazpacho to start. It had pickled green strawberries which were surprisingly very good. Usually you throw the green strawberries out of the bunch and only eat the red ripe ones. David Kinch opened our eyes to eating this unripened fruit and I will never look at green strawberries the same! The soup was paired with vegetable beignets and a crispy vegetable chip - both were just perfect. Our next course was my girlfriend's favorite - an abalone salad nestled on a bed of romaine lettuce coupled with grilled cucumbers and an avocado-nori sauce. I loved the avocado-nori sauce with the tender abalone. The entree came next and was a succulent porcelet with the best crispy pork skins! It was served communal style which was kind of cool. There were two cuts of meat - belly and tenderloin. My favorite part was the skins. Dessert was a lovely popover with powdered sugar. Sweet, simple, and delicious. We had different wine pairings with each course and were semi-tipsy by then end of the meal. The best treat of the night was when David Kinch and John Paul Carmona came out and greeted the diners. They were both kind enough to sign my copy of the menu also. I'll be on the watch out for next years JBF pop up!

We ordered a bottle of prosecco which was lovely. We had the caviar, salmon, shrimp, truffle fries and dessert. Definitely come here, they have indoor and outdoor seating. Best place for a date night with your boo.

Who's up a for a little culture war? As one of what David Hyde Pierce called the "nerdy indoor…read morekids," I realize I've been gaslighted for decades by the jocks. A mid-80s Mets obsessive who yearns for the days of Mookie Wilson and Bob Murphy, I haven't kept up with baseball so much in recent years. That all-star game tie and DH in the NL didn't appeal to me so much. Game 7 of the World Series provided an opportunity for me to be a "normal American" and watch the game at the bar. But I didn't want to buy $80 of drinks so I figured I'd try for inning 6 and beyond and get the finale. So the plan was Cork City for part and maybe another for the ending. The game was on many TVs, caught that cool double play. The sound was on but the talking kind of drowned it out, which seemed less than ideal. However, after I left, none of the 30-ish bars I walked past even had the sound on! So much for all the "sports bars" in this town. (To be fair: it was Halloween weekend, and business decisions to appeal to 20-something women in lingerie and their admirers may have been a factor). After going to 14th and back I was ready to enjoy extra innings at Cork City. But they were at capacity. Game Over. Yes, I'm copping to my inexperience in Hoboken bar-going. Turns out Cork City offered the best baseball experience in town. As for the bar itself, I enjoyed the Peach Fuzz cider from Pennings. The service was friendly. I'll try again on an off-peak night. My plan didn't work out but at least I got some steps in and learned that many sports fans are liars.

This man walked out of cork city and was incredibly emotional. Threatening to fight anyone that talked to him. A woman took exception and called him out to which this drunk man proceeded to elbow the woman in the chest (her husband was a coward and didn't do anything). After this the customers at the bar were extremely upset and called the police. Ten minutes later the police showed up and walked the man to the opposite corner. This is where the management/security at Cork City showed their true colors. The Cork City employee (it was said that he was the owner but not sure if that is true) was overheard saying that the person that called the police in the bar would never be allowed back. Cork City itself never called the police to deal with this drunk lunatic. After another 30 minutes it became clear that this man was going to be let off scot-free. The customers outside started to grow restless at this fact and yelled to the police officers that they all witnessed the man assault a woman. During this time to Cork City representative told us that he did not see anything. Everyone outside saw what happened and he refused to hold the drunk man accountable. He was too worried about serving beers and his reputation than ensure the safety of others. This is disgraceful and I would hope nobody that knows this information ever gives them another dime. If you are looking for somewhere to get a nice chill drink in this area I would highly recommend Louise and Jerry's! Much better spot to enjoy a drink.
