Restaurant Review

Many patrons report it is a great date place and the best place in Hoboken to have quiet conversation --- except on the busier Friday and Saturday Evenings. Vibrant bar and social scene, mostly young urban professionals Most patrons enjoy the opportunity to taste many varieties of good wines by the glass. Many patrons report the wines are very pricey. Unlike, most other wine bars, they do not have a lounge area with comfortable seating.

Chef and Owner Anthony Pino, also the chef and owner of the nearby Dining Room at Anthony David's, has opened the only wine bar in Hoboken catering to the more sophisticated tastes of the young urban professionals.

Bin 14 Trattoria Wine Bar is a small, attractive, 42-seat bar/dining area with a a long narrow layout. It was built with recycled items from other Hoboken buildings and landmarks. The interior has an elegant, chic, industrial, communal ambiance, with exposed brick walls, weathered wood, floor-to-ceiling windows, dark wood flooring, tin molded ceilings, and a marble top bar. Unlike, other typical wine bars, they do not have a lounge area with comfortable seating.

Bin 14 Trattoria Wine Bar is a great place for a date or for getting together with a group of friends. The music is kept to a low key, background level conducive to conversation, though on busier Friday and Saturday evenings, it generally is over taken by the noise of the crowd.

This is a wine bar in all respects. They offer more than 100 wines by the bottle, and 75 wines by the glass. Wines by the glass may be enjoyed in 2 oz. tastes or 6 oz. pours, with more than a dozen flight choices of 3 or 4 tastes of red or white. The bartenders and wait staff are knowledgeable and are very helpful in assisting you with a selection of wines. Be forewarned if you are on a budget, be sure to ask for the prices as many wine selections can be pricey.

The menu is prepared with Italian and French influences. While the selections are mostly tapas (for small plate sharing) with innovative bruschettas, cheese plates, and eight-inch pizzas, there are some limited selections of full size entrees. Pastas are made fresh daily, and desserts are not available.

When available, some of the popular selections are: The Lobster Club Bruschetta with crispy prosciutto and avocado; Grilled Octopus Tapas with andouille, cannellini, and cauliflower ragu; and the Prosciutto di Parma, fig, and ricotta Pizza.

The bar is open until 1 AM Mondays through Wednesdays, 2 AM on Thursdays, 3 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, and midnight on Sundays.

The restaurant is open daily till 11 PM on weeknights, midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, and 10 PM on Sundays. They are open for lunch Monday through Friday 11 am - 3 PM, and for Brunch, Saturday & Sunday 9 am - 3 PM. For Brunch, they offer special kids selections where kids 8 and under are free.

On the 2nd Monday of every month, Bin 14 Trattoria Wine Bar offers the Wiine 101 program - It's everything you always wanted to know about wine but were afraid to ask.
