"Mamie means grandma in French, and Bar Mamie’s homey welcome (and décor) signal an excellent quality/value proposition perfect for an apéro and a bite, big or small, any time. The menu is all about hyperlocal charcuterie and cheese boards, with hearty small plates of comfort food like raclette and cheese fondue in the winter and year-round easy house wines of every color. The summertime terrasse hugging the restaurant is a fun spot to see what’s happening in the Little Italy-adjacent neighborhood. If there’s no room, check out La Cave de Mamie next door, their tapas wine shop." - ivy lerner frank
