Tonight, is opening a special wine from our bottle list and pouring it by the glass all weekend —the Martiñolo Branco from Entre Cantos!

Winemaker Roberto Rodriguez’s meticulous attention to detail ensures that each grape is hand-selected, and every step of the winemaking process is carefully monitored to achieve the highest quality. Beyond the winemaking, Roberto possesses an exceptional creative flair. He constantly pushes the boundaries of sustainable farming practices, natural winemaking, and experimenting with unique varietals, blends, and aging techniques. Cheers to Galicia and ! 🍷

"This tight but artsy little jewel box of a restaurant aims to give vegan food some well-deserved polish. Avant Garden’s dynamic menu couldn’t have arrived at a better time, as New York diners are hungry for more upscale meatless options. This is excellent food that just happens to be vegan." - Michelin Guide
