My friend and I came here for a belated birthday celebration and it was great. When I first arrived, it was pretty quiet, and I was seated right away. However, as the night went on, it got more and more crowded and lively. The ambiance is really cozy with lots of wood accents and big windows. It's definitely a good spot to catch up with a friend or go on a date. My friend ordered a glass of red wine, which she really enjoyed and I ordered the rose which was very good. We ordered the cheese to start along with the bitter greens salad, which was delicious. For our entrees, we ordered the risotto, the rainbow carrots and the hanger steak. For dessert, we ordered the ice cream and a piece of the cake, and both were good. I'd come back here again! read more

HH is Mon-Sat 5-6:30 $2 oysters $12 house red / house white $9 Beers $12 cocktails Beautiful inside and friendly service. It does get busy even after HH. Their menu rotates frequently, but we got a pasta dish that I would pass. The oysters are massive and honestly, white wine + a bunch of oysters is the recipe for happiness and endless yapping. Definitely come here for HH! read more

We came for the $12 happy hour cocktails and $2 oysters, but then stayed for dinner as everything was so well executed, they nail the dirty martini It wasn't super busy for the neighborhood, and the service was knowledgeable and friendly. We ordered fried mushrooms and the pork lechon dish, although the menu changes frequently. read more

Justine’s on Hudson - Martini - Wine Bars Near Me - New York, New York

Good food in a very elegant space in the heart of the West Village. Great service and convenient location.

Ok so maybe I should not expect great food from a wine bar - but I was really disappointed with the food here! Food: we got the baked Brie, ricotta gnocchi, creme brullee and smores bar. The best was the baked Brie - which is what you would expect that to taste like! The gnocchi was not good because of the saffron sauce really overpowering everything. The creme brulle was really egg-y (it's more savory than sweet) and the s'mores bar was good but wouldn't recommend that! Honestly the best part of the meal was the bread and olive oil they gave to us before! Drinks: extensive wine menu! We ordered a few for the table and everything I had was pretty great Service: good service Ambience: nice, intimate spot read more

Love the ambiance and the intimate space. I'm usually very skeptical of Filipino food in restaurants having grown up in a Filipino household. What I appreciate here is that the food here are truly exquisite, with Filipino flavors and ingredients (think kalamansi) but not a reinvention of Filipino food per say. There's still so much on the menu I want to go back and try but special call out to the flavorful and fresh fluke Crudo + the spaghetti seafood dish that . Looking forward to maybe trying all their ice cream on next visit. Callout that the main menu itself doesn't have a huge veggie friendly selection and mostly seafood leaning, if that is a preference. I personally would have eaten everything on it! read more

Service was great, our waiter was very friendly and made the dinner feel like an event. The food was great too, I had a date salad I think and my friend had the gnocchi. Both delicious. It was my birthday so we got a dessert and champagne which was fantastic. The red wine we got was truly phenomenal. Someone in a review wrote it was the best wine selection in NYC and I think that might be true. Overall the food is solid but I feel like in NYC that's table stakes. The service is great the ambiance is really intimate but energetic and not too loud which takes the place to the top for me. Great for dates, catch ups but price wise definitely a treat read more

Justine’s on Hudson - Wine Bars Near Me - New York, New York

If you are looking for a seriously indulgent dinner complemented with outstanding wine pairings in an elegant, , relaxing atmosphere, Justine's is the place to go. My husband and I went on NYE with a 5-course prix fixe menu and I have to admit we were scoping out pizza places nearby in case we were hungry after. This was beyond unnecessary because the food at Justine's is absolutely delicious and the serving sizes were exceptionally generous. We chose to sit at the bar to see the action in the kitchen and it was exceptionally comfortable. The host and servers were all lovely and helpful with menu questions and suggested wine pairings. We tried almost every item on the menu and everything was delicious. I had the Sunchoke Soup, Bea Spaghetti and Braised Short Rib and they were all outstanding. The spaghetti was up there with any pasta I've had in Italy or top Italian spots in NYC. I was absolutely stuffed by the time the short ribs came but that dish was so delicious I had to finish it! I'm a huge dessert fan but I was so full from the other courses that I don't know if I gave the desserts a fair shot. The Butter Maman was super rich, and I might really enjoy it with an afternoon coffee or a lighter meal. It was very heavy without saving room for dessert. The Cashew Sansrival was a little funky and I wouldn't order it again. I was curious to try the parm ice cream but it was a little too far outside the standard dessert flavor relam for my taste. For wines I started with the Blanc de Blancs, which was worth the splurge for a true champagne. The Beaujolais recommended by my server as a less pricy option paired beautifully with the short rib. I will definitely visit again with zero worries of leaving hungry even with two courses. read more

It's a disservice to call Justine's a "wine bar." Though the atmosphere is indeed, *West Village Wine Bar*, the food is daring and out of this world. The salmon over ragu was excellent, the ragu was deliciously wine-forward. The crab bite appetizer was equally impressive. read more

I come here once a week. The menu is always changing so they ensure they are using the freshest ingredients available. Everything is made fresh to order and the whole food experience is an amazing mix of fresh, home made comfort vibes but is high end and gourmet. Did I say fresh? The whole team here is great at what they do. I love this place. read more

This small, bistro on Hudson Street is a great addition to the culinary scene. The small menu is very creative with everything we ate being unique and flavorful. The service is wonderful and the restaurant, although tiny, is beautiful. read more

Only had few days to explore NYC and a dinner at Justine's was such a delight. The staff were amazing and the service was top notch. I'm still dreaming about the salmon carpaccio (thin sliced guava was a nice touch) and the chicken goes perfectly well with the risotto. Will definitely comeback. read more

Small intimate restaurant with a good vibe, wonderful service, and tasty food! We ordered the heirloom tomato appetizer and the trout and chicken entrees. The heirloom tomato appetizer was SO refreshing and delicious. I'm not sure it's worth $25 but it was good! read more

The food was pretty mediocre- I think their menu changes or something but we had the fluke, squid ink pasta, and beef tongue. All were average. read more

Great wine selection and food menu is unique and amazing. It has a little bit touch of Filipino cuisine.

Outstanding. Food was next level, we had tomatoes to start, followed by pork chop and crab risotto. Tomato salad was super tasty and fresh. But the real highlights were the mains. Crab risotto was rich, creamy, and just the right amount of spicy. Pork chop was top two in my life, just amazing how they can make it that rich and tender. And let's not forget drinks. Both cocktails and wine were well selected by the restaurant, and wine list looked great. Lastly, ambiance was perfect as well. Can't believe this used to be my local Starbucks. We will be back, highly recommended! read more

Incredible wines and thought provoking food that somehow manages to elevate the wine, despite its creative flavors. Pricey but totally worth it, unlike many restaurants in this city. read more

Small place but food, wine, & service were spectacular! I always order the ceviche & steak. Seasonal cocktails are good too. Don't forget the wines, one of the best wine selections in NYC. read more

I'll say that the food was excellent but I wished the salad leaves were cut up. Wrestling to eat my salad is never fun. The short ribs were yummmm. Service was excellent. The wine was disappointing but I am notoriously hard to please. I would have given this place 4 stars but the prices..... ouch! read more

West Village's Precious Gem. Indulge yourself to a fusion of cultures through their food which was delicately put together to give you the distinct and rich flavors that you will not forget. Great selection of wines and cocktails! We were greeted by Filipino crews and the Filipino Chefs too! Shout out to Chef Arron Justin! Definitely a must visit when you are in the area :) Will visit again! read more

Warning - they will charge you if you cancel on Resy. Sounds fair, right? No, it wasn't. I cancelled at 9:30AM on a Saturday for a reservation that night. My wife was sick with COVID! I had to cancel - what is the alternative - get the entire staff sick? They charged me a $100 no show fee! My wife and I called multiple times and left messages and no one ever called us back. Poor form - you lost a customer you never had. I get the rule, but this is a unique situation with plenty of time for them to find a replacement for us (which they likely did). read more

Amazing new place. Food is amazingly clever, different, and delicious!! Staff and service is very attentive and kind. read more

Wow, what a really warm and welcoming entrance. Our party of 2 decided to sit at the bar to take advantage of the semi-open kitchen, which I usually enjoy. We ordered 1 starter and 3 mains to share. The Brussel sprout dish was tasty and if the dish was meant to have been completely overly fried and oi absorbed Brussel sprouts, they nailed it!! For approx. $24, quite a small dish. Next was the ricotta gnocchi. This we really enjoyed but $37 for at most 10 gnochhi and some mushrooms, it's a pass. Protein prices with no protein. But it was 10pm and desperate bellies make poor decisions. By this time I was getting a little annoyed as I counted numerous staff members in the "open kitchen" continuously touching their noses (one even using a tissue) and then decided not to wash their hands. This is on top of them eating food behind the counter, that's a big no no if you're not trying a dish, which they were not. On to the mains. Ribeye skewers, about $45 for maybe 3-4 ounces and a chicken breast for $35 something. Both dry, luke warm and in some brown sauce. So bland, so boring, so overpriced. The ribeye, the favorite cut of many bc of it's perfect marbling, is actually precooked here. They precook the ribeye!!! Yes, cubed delicious meat that takes a few minutes at most to cook to perfection is precooked, as if you ordered a skewer from the food truck for $2.50. This was not denied when I inquired, it was confirmed. I did complain and the two dishes that we did not eat were removed from our bill. I was told that there was no manager nor chef on site that night so I could not inform an authority, though I did see two people I spoke with as founding members of the restaurant on the web. They must be doing something right for someone, as this location is high rent and OH, but unfortunately they did not do anything right for me. High hopes can equate to empty bellies. The hostess and our waiter were very friendly and hospitable. read more

This restaurant is so good. Go and order whatever you like to eat because the chef is so talented

Perfect place for an exquisite meal with farm to table ingredients and a super chic yet cozy setting. We had the most delicious salad, heirloom tomatoes with peaches, spicy crab risotto, and an incredible sesame crusted banana cake. Service was warm and attentive. Will definitely return. read more

Everything was excellent. We had the heirloom tomato app and the garlic chicken and trout mains. Highly recommend all three.

I was excited about Justine's but thought the service left a bit to be desired. We arrived promptly for our reservation and were led past several empty tables and bar seats to the back of the bar next to the bathroom/kitchen entrance--i.e., the worst seats in the house. I asked if we could move to the empty table for two and our server told us that it was reserved for another couple. (Note that the reservations don't distinguish between bar and tables so it's not like we had only a bar seat reservation.) I then asked why we couldn't sit at the table since we were evidently there first and the server hemmed and hawed and eventually claimed that the other couple had called and specifically asked for a table. In front of me, the physically present person specifically asking for a table. She did agree to move us to another section of the bar, though, and then before we ordered food offered up the table after all. And then--we saw the exact same thing happen to another couple! They were pointed to the shitty seats at the bar and then reseated next to us at a two-person table after seeming to complain. The food was solid but the seating experience was just odd and annoying. It's not an airline; no need to fill the worst seats first. read more
