In Vino

REVIEW

June 29, 2009


CUISINE: Italian, Wine Bar
NEIGHBORHOOD: East Village, Lower East Side

 

215 E. 4th St between avenues A and B

(p) 212-539-1011

We were quick to compliment the young owners of In Vino for the cavernous, rustic interior of their restaurant-- complete with arched ceilings and wooden floors.  “Oh thanks-- but it was like this when we bought it.”  That pretty much sums up the attitude of this cozy Italian restaurant and wine bar: laid-back and easygoing without sacrificing quality or charm. 

 

The only unpleasant moment of the evening was our argument over appetizers (note: the waitstaff is patient).  The list is so extensive that you could build a meal of small plates.  The fried artichoke was a perfect salty starter, and the toppings on the bruschetta, from chopped asparagus to the standard tomato basil combo, were incredibly fresh.  The bresaola and arugula salad sated Frankie’s constant craving for cured meats without filling him up for the main event.

 

And an event it was when the lamb and pork ragu arrived at the table.  A special of the evening (though it comes in lasagna form on the regular menu), the slow roasted meat and tomato sauce was just spicy enough, served over rigatoni that had just the perfect amount of bite.

 

For dessert, one can never go wrong with tiramisu.  For those who prefer something a bit more tart, the strawberry pie was a refreshing alternative.  With a glass of moscato to complete your evening, and the summer breeze coming in through the large glass windows, this mellow east village restaurant will soon be one of your go-to spots.
