Molto Vino is a nice wine bar in the village of Babylon that is a nice place for a date, meet up with friends. It does get crowded and there are not many tables, but in the summer they have an outdoors area which is cute. I love coming here for dinner with my friends if we're in the mood for wine and a lighter dinner. We always split a bottle of wine - and the waiter or waitress is always knowledgable and has never steered us wrong of a bad wine. As far as dinner - we always get the 3 cheese plate as the burrata is absolutely delicious! The manchengo cheese is also very good. We had the Brie and weren't HUGE fans of it but it was pretty good. They definitely give A LOT of cheese too wish is awesome! Their pizzas are good too- VERY garlicky though. They also have a good meat plate too. read more

Delicious takeout, tonight. Thank you Molto Vino for supplying food for Babylon during this crisis. My husband and I loved coming to Molto Vino for a long time. Great atmosphere, great food, and very lovely and attentive staff. read more

Great location- great space including a back terrace ( weather permitting ) intimate and cozy would best describe this wine bar. Lots of wine and pizza made fresh to your taste. Had a margarita with extra basil- thin crust and delicious with the bottle of red I had with it. Gelato here is good- had the pistachio though I tasted almond... Hmmm Super friendly bar staff and servers. I'll def be back. read more

I enjoy this place a lot.. I've been here a few times.. I don't only come here if barrique is packed; I feel the vibe is very different and it depends on your mood which one you decide to venture into.. I like the dark setting inside of molto especially while continuously talking, eating cheese, and drinking wine it makes me feel comfortable like I don't want to leave.. I admit I think the service can be better but honestly our waitress was awesome and def let us know the molto platter was gonna take a bit Bc a lot of people I'm assuming were ordering the same shit.. She was cool and it was busy in there so we will let is slide that she wasn't able to check on us right away but she came eventually and brought the honey I had asked for about a half hour later but hey, better late than never right ... It gets packed in here and it was this night as well.. Typically, a lot of "chatty Kathy" Cougars infest this place but whatev it's cool.. Ladies be prepared to be sized up and stared at for a good two min upon entering lol... I prob wouldn't come inside with more than 4 people just Bc of the size of the place but I am all for the intimacy and personal feel of this place with my pals. I think maybe also their charcuterie is a little over priced for what you get.. Yes it seems like a heaping portion Bc the bread is under the cheese (on our platter at least it was) but $32 for two meats and two cheeses seemed slightly steep. I've been to numerous wine bars especially as of late and I have received a lot more for less $ ... Next time I visit here I'm looking forward to their patio for some chill time with wineeeee They have a nice selection of wines and yes I brought one to go :) read more

Hi friends, it was great to hear from my yelper friend, Mayor Bill S. It had been awhile since we had gotten together so I was really looking forward to our dinner at Molto Vino in Babylon Village. I was really surprised to find Babylon Village was having a big festive street fair that evening. The town was crowded with hundreds of revelers and live music rocked the streets. Arriving at Moto Vino I could see that they had brought their Pizza ovens outside and had outside table settings on the street for the festival. For the street fair the menu was limited to pizzas only. Darn.. My friend Bill S. Was waiting at the bar. Billy is also known as The BLACK BADGE Mayor of Long Island's chapter of Yelp Elites. It was great to see Bill again who I am proud to call a friend. Billy had told me he had been to a Yelp event here a little while back and the place was seriously off the hook, I couldn't wait to try their pizzas. Because of the big street fair in the village today molto was only serving pizzas, no problem.. Pizza it is. Bill had recommended there brick oven margarita pie we got one plain and one loaded down with the works. Instead of just getting a few glasses of wine we went for the whole bottle of the Collezione Montepulcaino D'ABRUZZO. This was a wonderfully rich full-bodied Italian beverage. It was incredibly full-bodied complex and well-rounded. I was a little disappointed that I could not sample some of their other menu items this evening. I would have ordered the entire menu. It was great to see my friend Billy again and we talked about new and old times. I was able to catch up on the Yelp Elite events and how all of my friends were .. we were starving as Our pizzas took quite a while to arrive. Just about as I was going to eat the tablecloth, the meat Margarita Pizza was served. Cheesy, crispy, hot, and delicious..We scarfed it down very quickly. The next pizza came out about 10 minutes later. The delicious bottle of wine disappeared quickly, and it was too soon time to say goodnight. The Check, with 2 pizzas and a bottle of wine was about a hundred bucks. I wanted to thank Billy for his generosity, insisting on paying for the meal. I've got the next one. Looking forward to trying the delicious pasta. And the incredible meat and cheese board appetizer. I love the Ambiance and decor here and can't wait to stop back again for the full menu. It was so good to see my friend Billy again and wonderful to catch up on old times. Life is about good friends and sharing a great bottle of wine. Chao.. read more

Very good service, great food and wine. Charcuterie boards are worth it because they're pretty filling. Love!

Went last night. Watermelon martini (on special drink menu) tasted like water with watermelon purée. Waitress although v nice needed to be reminded 3x to bring us water. Brought out 1 app when we ordered 2 & when reminded of this gave us wrong one ( which they did comp) food was fair but margarita pizza we got looked like a frozen Celeste pizza with a sprig of basil thrown on top. Heard they were much better than this. Not impressed at all. Won't be returning. Don't waste your money. read more

Wine & Cheese We were meeting another couple and needed a place to grab something light to eat and as we were passing Molto Vino, it did not look too crazy in there - so in we went. The gracious host me us at the door and gathered up some chairs for us to plop down and have some drinks and decide what we wanted. This is first and foremost a date place. Dimly lit with modern furnishings and a hip crowd adorn the place. Tables are mostly 2-tops and there is a decent sized bar to sit at as well. Help was just great- they knew their wines and got me going with an excellent Petit Sirah - my girl ditched her Malbec after trying mine and my friends stuck with their choices. There was a decent selection of cured meats and cheeses to choose from and we added a panini to boot just so we had something to chew on. The place does a non-stop business. As mentioned, great for a date or just a light nosh with some very good wines. Prices were a good for what we got - $40 for a large platter of meat and cheese for two fed four of us. All in all we were fine with the final bill Definitely a must try if you haven't been in the area before. Parking on the streets. read more

A Babylon staple. Attentive servers, knowledgeable sommeliers and an eclectic "tapas" style menu that hits on Old country sensibilities. Brick oven/wood burning pizza oven churns out the thinnest crispiest pizza pies a true paisan can write home about. Ciao read more

Molto Vino - Wine Bars Near Me - Babylon, New York

The problems occurred when our waiter had to be told to give us menus, never gave us water, and only came to us a total of three times. To give us our wine, give us our pizza and to hand us our check. While I completely understand businesses are very stressed and doing their best while in a pandemic, it is disheartening to see your waiter not checking in on you, or even giving you water while they are talking to another table, who seemed to know each other outside of this establishment. I am all for friends supporting friends while at work, but a line has to be drawn when it comes to doing your job. Before this visit, I've come to Molto Vino and was aware of the COVID fee they charged on the bill. Again, I am all in supporting small business during this time, but it is disappointing to know we were charged this once again, when the service was horrendous related to things that had nothing to do with COVID. It simply could've been better by just being asked if everything was going well, being given a simple glass of water and not having to beg for service. Unfortunately seemed to be more of a hangout with friends than someone doing their job. Sorry to say I am not coming again. read more

Update: the owner called and apologized to me which I must say was very big of him to do. Yesterday this would have been 5 stars. Hands down. But after the owner yelling at me on the phone because they have the time listed wrong on google and had a 3 year old answering the phone and hanging up on me... 1 star. I told him maybe he should update the time and he started yelling at me that he doesnt need my advice. Clearly you do. Having the correct opening time listed is probably good advice to take.. Also dont have a 3 year old answer the phone. Maybe get a separate line I am so beyond disappointed at how I was treated. I loved this place. read more

This place is definitely a little hidden gym on main street. The sangria is absolutely amazing. And they do offer a variety of wines. The margarita pizza was OK. Hopefully in the future, they can extend their menu. Otherwise the cuservice was great. read more

Went here as a last minute outting for dinner! The weather on a summer evening ended up being perfect so we sat outside in the back. Nice, calm, relaxing feel and ambiance. Michael the waiter was stellar! Very well versed and informative on the food and wines especially. There was 3 of us so we had the Small Molto cheese platter, the burrata appetizer, the crab cake salad and a margherita pizza. Plenty of food for 3 people since their portions are more tapas style. Excellent taste! Excellent service! Great for a night out! read more

Have been here a few times. Inside is really nice , dim lights and cozy. They have an outside area when it's nicer out which is great. Great wine selection and I've had the panini and deserts a few times and it's always good! read more

First of all the key with this place is know why you're here. This is a great place for fine wine, fresh meats & cheeses as well as authentic brick oven pizza with homemade dough! It's an older/mature crowd and the vibe is definitely "chill" so don't plan this as a stop by after Mary Carrols. Secondly, it's a wine bar. There are no shots of fireball or Jameson, so that crowd isn't there either. Perfect place to act like an adult. This is not the place for a sit down dinner. The menu is for drinking heavily and "picking" on fine foods. There are delicious paninis, but that's not what I consider dinner. Last, but not least, it's classy. If you don't have any please don't walk-in. read more

Cozy date spot but so inconsistent that it's not worth going back. I've been here and tried giving this place a chance so many times I gave up. Hopefully the owner will take care of this issue sooner then later. read more

3.8/5 When you walk in, you automatically feel a Manhattan wine bar vibe with the music, dim lighting and decor. All are high tops with padded stools- you sit where you want. I was recommended the Guggenheim Malbec which was delish and I loved the huge Bordeaux glass they served it in. We ordered the marinara thin crust brick oven pizza (pretty good) and ended up trying the margherita pie as well. Pizzas aren't huge and we were hungry lol. Also ordered 1 meat 1 cheese board which I was surprisingly impressed by the portions. Food was good. The only downfalls was actually the service (servers seemed to share the table responsibilities. They were friendly but lacked in attentiveness). When we wanted to pay, we brought the check to the bar bc we didn't feel like waiting anymore, only to find the 3 servers chilling behind the bar. Also- if you looked up at the ceiling above the bar there were flys! read more

Molto Vino - Meat and cheese platter. ;) - Wine Bars Near Me - Babylon, New York

This is one of our favorite spots now. We were going to another local wine/cheese place, but the portions were small compared to Molto Vino. I find the crab cake salad amazing. The fresh greens with the lemon viniagrette dressing is delicious. The crab cakes are not too heavy -- in fact, they are baked. The cheese platters with lightly toasted bread with olive oil is most impressive. Good quantity. The manchego cheese is divine. Service can be slow. I agree with the other reviewers. That said, don't be in a rush. The staff of Cassandra, Michael and the others are all wonderful people and you won't be disappointed. BTW Alex is fantastic! A week later he remembered our names and was very gracious! Love this place! Give them a shot. Just don't take my window seat. :) read more

Seriously , if this place has 4.5 stars with reviews. It's because they had the 5 regular drunks at the bar and 5 useless employees post numerous times each. This place was beyond horrendous. Such a shame because at first glance it's so cute. Until You walk in and can't get service. Then when you finally do , wonder why its a wine bar as there is no wine list. It's Italian or California? Lovely wine on the wall , sorry jokes on you! Decoration purposes only! Well no worries as long as the loud obnoxious staff doing shots behind the bar are having a great time! Customers obviously are not a priority or concern. $75 for 5 horrible mixed drinks that took forever to get. We left them full and walked. No one even asked why? Lol. Trust me , next time you walk by Molto Vino keep walking sista! read more

I'm underwhelmed with this wine bar. The ambiance is great, very cute and cozy but the menu is subpar and it's overpriced. It's a romantic setting for a date or classy for girls night out but I don't think I would come here again for food, only for a drink. It's a decent sized menu for a wine bar plus there's a specials board but the execution of the food was just mediocre. We tried the mango sangria and peach moscato-both were good but $12/each...which is normal for specialty drinks but not for a regular glass of wine when you know they only fill the glass a quarter of the way. For food, we split one of the pizzas and I got the bqe panini while my date tried to order a special off the board but was told they no longer have that...it's one thing to say you've run out but if you no longer carry it, why is it still on the board? The chicken on my sandwich was dry and over cooked and the salad appeared to have dressing on it but also lacked in flavor. Also, theres a note at the bottom of the menu that says there's a 3.99% charge for use of credit card. First of all, how tacky is that? And second of all-who pays cash anymore? Welcome to 2017 where most people do not carry cash anymore. Us being two of those people had to pay with our card but I didn't see that extra service charge on my bill so I don't know why that was on the menu but I usually only see that at like pizza places, never a classy restaurant. The service was good but I feel like there's better restaurants in town. Kinda disappointed with my experience. read more

Love the atmosphere. Good to grab something light to eat before night out or to end up your Babylon adventure. Personally Like to come here late at night to relax with a glass of wine, listen to jazz and chat with Theresa. Nice selection of wine and cheese brings me back to Italy. I really like that wall with wine. One of my must to see places in Babylon. Sweet owner. read more

The wine selection is wonderful, a lot of choices at a reasonable price. The food menu, however, is really lacking. There's no description of any of the meats / cheeses, just a list of them and it's pretty pricy for 5 slices of cheese, bread and some meat. If you're looking for something light to pair with your meal, I'd recommend just sticking with the pizza. read more

Eclectic atmosphere, Bartender is an artist and the staff is superb! Just watch your step on the way in.

Food was not great. Waitress was friendly-Nikki. Floor looked like it hasn't been cleaned in days. Had a cigarette smell in restaurant. Ordered pizza well done-no where near well done. Ordered dad usage on pizza there were 4 crumbles. What a waste of money! No note of service charge until we received the bill and I asked what the extra charge was. Should be posted somewhere. read more

Great ambiance. Great staff. Great wine. Mostly they have the best meat and cheese boards! They are huge and fresh cut. Many different wine options! But don't be afraid to try other options on the menu. They have some really good paninis. read more

The owner is an amazing gentlemen that is respectful and highly knowledgeable. The owner really knows his stuff and will get you the best glass of wine you ever had. The food here is amazing especially the margherita pizza. All of his staff are always very kind and willing to serve you. This place sets the tone for wine bars with the best ambiance. Wether your on a first date or a group night out this is the place to be for sure. The music is perfect as well as the lighting. The doors even open up in nice evenings for a fresh breeze. I wouldn't recommend any other wine bar to anyone else because this one simply does it the best! read more

We have always loved this place but now they are charging a "convenience fee" to use our CC. There was a case in NYS that ruled it illegal to penalize your customers for using a CC. No other restaurants/bars have we ever been charged a fee. I'll be calling my CC company and complaining. read more

Great food and drinks. Service was unbelievable. Ask for Michael Roman you will not regret it !!! He was the absolute best!!!! read more

Went with a friend of mine for a cocktail. It took the waiter a decent time to even approach us but the drinks came fast. We ordered a simple 3 choice cheese platter and they didn't get the order correct. Luckily when I told the waiter, he came back in 2 minutes with double entrees (to order) and refills. We only paid for first round of drinks. Food was delicious and fresh. read more

If you don't go get to Molte you're missing out... Michael Roman Is the absolute best... Talk about full circle attentive welcoming and unbelievable... Thank you Michael we love you read more

I want to start this review by saying that the service is exceptional. The ambiance is equally awesome and the food is amazing. So why do I only give 3 stars? If you have wIne in the name of a restaurant then you need to have good wines on the wine list. Yes I am a wine snob. The wines are ok. In an effort to enhance the experience I walked a couple doors down to Solo Vino to purchase something a little better than was offered. The fellow at Solo Vino informed me that the owner of both businesses did not allow outside bottles even from his own shop and even though I offered to pay a corking fee. Will probably return because of how good everything else was but don't go there looking for high end wines. read more

This place is a joke. To many things to write. Way understaffed. Totally disappointed

Cute little Italian joint in the middle of Babylon! Love their wine selection, pizza, and most importantly cheese!!! Love going here in the summer, they have a great back area that I literally just discovered fall of 2018 with my boyfriend. I was amazed that I never sat back there! Everyone is super friendly, the bartenders are great and love to have conversations. I know it's a wine bar, but would love if they could've made some unique cocktails. Definitely one of my favorites in Babylon! read more

Wanted to try a new place for dinner. Didn't look up reviews or anything - just went b/c it fits in our culinary wheelhouse. Situated right next door to a cheese shop, and half a block from Barrique, you would think they would offer dynamic meat/cheese options. Major fail. Five or so cheese choices for Saturday night, all underwhelming, including having Brie on the menu. I feel like I could have built a better cheese offering from Stop and Shop. There were also only four or five meat choices. The prosciutto was tasty. I did like that they offered toasted bread, and the olives on the plate were delicious. Orange Marmalade is a nice touch, and blends well with hard cheeses. Wife had wine, I had a beer. If the owners are reading this - if you are going to offer such a limited menu (meat/cheese, beer), differentiate yourself from the competition and offer only the best possible products. Was noisy for a small crowd. Waiter was very nice and attentive, as well as the bartender. Would probably not come back to this place. read more
