"Open for: Dinner Price range: $$ The casual wine-bar sibling to the multi-award-winning Published on Main began as a pop-up but is now firmly one of the city’s favorite spots, complete with a summery patio, on East 6th. The gorgeous room plays host to chef de cuisine Justin Golangco’s menu, which wanders from pan-European to pan-Asian; aonori, caperberries, and bruschetta all feature at various points. Alongside is an ever-changing array of low-intervention wines, amari, cocktails, and vermouth, all procured by wine lead Stephanie Alishan (formerly of London’s Super 8 Restaurant group). Know before you go: Ask the excellent servers what bottle they’re most excited about right now." - Nikki Bayley
"Bar Susu is what a great natural wine bar should be. There’s a borderline unreadable cursive chalkboard menu of wines by the glass, and knowledgeable sommeliers who can help you navigate your very good drinking options (including some delightful NA cocktails). The X factor here, though, is the food, like Kentucky fried maitake mushrooms, octopus nuggets, and stuffed chicken wings with gochugaru buffalo sauce. Come here if you have something to celebrate, and if your group is having too much trouble narrowing down an order, go for the “chef’s choice” family-style tasting menu.

"Bar Susu offers a concise range of well-prepared, creative dishes served in a laid-back setting that fashions itself as a wine bar focused on natural pours." - The MICHELIN Guide
