"Chris Elford and Anu Apte-Elford, the owners behind drinking institution Rob Roy and others, pair natural wine, cocktails, and snacks at Vinnie’s, named for Apte-Elford’s mom and located adjacent to their tropical bar Navy Strength in Belltown. As with their other spots, Vinnie’s is high-concept but low-pretense, with colorful, homey decor, an open kitchen where you can chat with the oyster shucker, and knowledgeable servers to guide you through a concise list of glass pours that ranges from Basque white to Georgian orange. The seafood bar shifted to a bottle shop during the pandemic, and kept the latter when shifting back to the former, so you can also grab wine to go." - Eater Staff
