Very nice wine bar with very good selection. The food is actually very good, I recommend trying the tartines and cassolettes! Also the cheese and charcuterie selection is great and will pair perfectly with a good red wine! To resume, if you like wine and food, give this place a try!
Love the fine wine selection and the after hours pricesSometimes a pub is the right place to go after a concert at the Madison Square Garden. Other times a place such as Vin sur 20 is the better post-concert option. Often this place is packed but when I visited around midnight it was laid-back and peaceful. A good wine bar should always be able to surprise with a delightful wine that I have never heard of and Vin sur 20 does not disappoint. Thank goodness this nicely decorated place lacks the many TV screens showing sports, something so common in many bars.
Love the wine selection, all the waiters/waitresses are friendly, quick, and speak French which I really like (considering its a French restaurant/wine bar and all the wines are French). I ordered the escargots, they were well prepared and hot when they came out. I think the wine prices are very fair, and honestly a steal if you can catch happy hour. Ill definitely be back!
The food and wine was fine, but I was very disappointed with the service. The bartender spilled red wine all over my white sweater and pretended like nothing happened. When I told my server about this incident, he just said, “I’m sure he didn’t mean it” and walked away…
Went to location at PLAZA. The staff was cleaning dishes near the bar and this very offensive, highly allergenic smell wafted throughout the bar area. When I mentioned it to the VERY OBNOXIOUS bartender, a woman who worked on 1:17, she was not apologetic and extremely rude. Would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. Horrible. My eyes were swollen and the smell of cleaning fluid was palpable.The bartender gave gratuitous nods and just was not listening to our concerns. Totally oblivious to client service standards and, in my opinion, needs mentoring and should reassess. Horrible client service.DO NOT GO!!!
Very romantic environment. The wine menu was kind of overwhelming because they offer something like 100 options. To make it even harder it was in french. It can be pricey. Overall it was a good experience especially because we got an unexpected 25% discount on the wine.
Disappointing. Went there for a glass of wine with a friend during happy hour. Place was crowded but that’s just NYC..we had one of the recommended wines for happy hour and was corked but we didn’t get it replaced. Tried another one that was supposed to be amazing but was absolutely average and ridiculously overpriced. Spent 40 dollars for two glasses of really lame wines. Not recommended!
Honestly wanted to like this place more! It had a great atmosphere and dollar oysters before 7. But the service wasnt great, it took us ten minutes to talk to the waiter at a nearly empty bar, and he couldnt hear/understand us at all. After he took our order he forgot to remove the menus or fill our waters. And when the check came, he forgot to apply happy hour prices to anything we ordered so we had to correct him.The oysters were really great for their price. But the cheese plate was unspectacular and sort of bland--the only stand out was the duck pate.I might go back, but its doubtful.
Not as intimate or cosy as you would like, bit a solid choice for a couple or a small group. Barman was not very knowledgeable on the wine and the place needs to have more than one. First wine we had felt like it had been opened a little long, but the 2nd was as expected. The place has a nice vibe thats why it gets 4 stars, will try again, hopefully it stays at 4 and doesnt drop to 3.
Went here last night and sat at the bar with a rotating group of friends. Service was not friendly - couldnt be bothered attitude. Didnt check on us. No suggestions to be had. We had to ask for water refills, additional drinks, and food. Very strange. On a positive note, the jalapeño bacon mac and cheese and escargot were delish. Oh... also we ultimately went somewhere else because we also were losing our voices yelling just to hear one another... this place is LOUD.
We went to Vingt sur Vingt to meet some people we had not seen in seven years. First of all, the place was so noisy I literally could not hear or speak to the person two feet from me without yelling. This is a terrible place to meet friends and have a plesent conversation. And then the food was mostly not French, so my wife and I ordered a roast beef and a turkey club sandwich.It was then suggested that we also order tea, so I said sure, I mean, how much can a cup of tea cost? It turns out that it was $15 per cup, WITHOUT refills. We wound up paying $60 for two cups of tea and two refills! Outrageous even for NYC.And finally, lets talk about the bathroom. Only one male/female potty for restaurant with close to 200 people in it. Need I say more? I STRONGLY suggest that you avoid this place.
Fit out to be an olde world French wine bar complete with small tiled floors. There is a extensive list of predominantly french wines. Sadly this place is let down by the snooty and dull french bar man behind the front counter. He needs to find another job as you are bringing the mood down!
Very good surprise to have found this French restaurant in the middle of NYC where we found the finesse of the dishes as in France.Excellent welcome and service, a very smiling and pleasant waitress and sincerely delighted to welcome customers to the establishment, a very friendly French waiter who cares about our comfort and that we are having a good time. We dined on the small terrace on the sidewalk with a view of the very pleasant One WTC tower in the distance. The wines are excellent.Surprised not to have been able to order the little coffee at the end of the meal because it is not customary in the US 😊. They therefore did not consider it appropriate to invest in a coffee machine ☺️.Go dine there without hesitation!

2022-04-17Cute little wine bar and restaurant. They have an outdoor area that during summer must be lovely. Inside, the layout is cozy with multiple tables in two rows. Tables are small so not sure how this works for larger groups.Food was DELICIOUS! You have to try the Steak Sandwich. And they have a pretty decent list of wines that you can pick from. Ask for recommendations, they can guide you!

2022-05-12What a great, light-filled space! Staff are very attentive, and the wine and food are excellent. $10 happy hour til 6 on certain wines. I had the escargot and the salmon tartine and both were really good. A great place to meet on a date or hang out with friends. Highly recommend.

2021-10-11Good selection of wines with great service. I went super late on a Wednesday evening so wasnt as happening then.The server got us bread despite late hours as the kitchen was closed. The bread was very crispy and great as well.

2022-07-30Lovely spot full of lovely chatters enjoying their wine. Very helpful staff who did not (outwardly) judge us for our lack of knowledge when it comes to French wines.Loved the old school R&B on the speakers. You cant go wrong with Marvin and Barry White. OH BABY!Kitchen was closed so we missed a chance to try the food but would come back earlier to try it or for another late night hang.

2022-08-14Best experience provided by the gentleman in the front named Rome. He’s very knowledgeable with all his wine and cheese. He made both me and my girlfriend laugh. Kept checking on us to make sure we were good. Great conversation and good vibes all around. Would definitely recommend coming here. Will be coming back again !!!

2021-06-20Great selection of wine, extremely knowledgeable and helpful bartender. Smells the wine when opening. We ordered a glass of pinot and he didn’t like the smell and opened a new bottle instead of serving the open one and then poured a glass from the old bottle so we could smell the difference. Food selection also good. Cheese and meat platter was very good, only downside was the bread, it was not the best. Steak tartar was delicious, nice size serving and full of flavor.

2022-05-31Very expensive for what you get.25$ for 3 slices of cheese is out of this world crazy.Good wine; our second choice though, because what we picked first was not available.
