Profile

In this snug, cavelike room, extremely well-versed waiters explain the subtle differences between a Sardinian Cannonau, a Sicilian Nero d’Avola, and a Campanian Aglianico—just a few of the winning wines you’ll come across on the voluminous list. Iasilli uses good glassware and unfussy, wine-friendly tapas to bolster his argument, which, as the evening progresses and the Puglian Primitivo flows, becomes increasingly persuasive.

Some of the best Italian in the city

Randomly stumbled on this place when I moved to the East Village a few months ago. My friend and I went in to sit at the bar and were clueless about what wine to get (it's only wine and only Italian). The bartender let us taste about 5 different wines each before we decided what to order. He was extremely knowledgeable about every single one and they were all unusual and delicious. Then we ordered some appetizers - artichokes, mozzarella, etc. - which were fresh and amazing. I went back for dinner a few weeks later with a date and it was again a great experience. I can't recommend this place enough.

Delicious and charming

I recenty went to In VIno and our waiter was incredibly helpful with the wine selection. I mentioned to my boyfriend that it would take me hours to read their wine list and decide so the waiter asked me a couple questions, gave some suggestions, and let me sample a couple wines before we ordeded the bottle! The food was equally as good as the service. I would certainly go back.
