Really solid spot in the west village that gives off those west village vibes. The staff was so kind and had really lovely conversations with us, the seating intimate and adorable, and the wines and cocktails quite good. I liked how inventive and unique each dish was, and would go back just to see how that changes over time as you don't get that every day. Not any one dish completely blew me away which is why i'm keeping this to 4 stars, but it's a close call.Bread and butter very solid, expensive, but whatever, better than bad bread and butter. The scallop ceviche was truly excellent and served in a scallop which I loved, but was shown up by the hamachi crudo which just had so much flavor and drove a unique taste that you don't typically see in a crudo. We also did the wagyu tartare which had a wasabi hint and was realy good, but not quite as good as the hamachi crudo in my book.The delicata squash was a beautiful dish, if not maybe the most interesting in taste, but the labne accompanying it was definitely great. The graffiti eggplant however had the most interesting taste profile, a very spicy thai pepper, and was the closest dish to blowing me away with taste and flavor. The raddichio salad good and fresh, and the beet gnocchi also unique with dill on top. The Octopus with romesco also good, but again not blowing me away.Affogato was good, chocolate olive oil cake was not something i would order again, and the manager had a great conversation with us about restaurants, gave us a round of free cocktails, so very easy to like this place! We'll be back as it really is West Village cute!

I had a chance to try the menu at West10West, in the West Village - that I just found out is owned by Ryan Reynolds. Everything was delicious, with highlights being the seared octopus, beet gnocchi and king trumpet mushrooms. The umami flavors are built up so well, with the elements of each dish complimenting each other nicely, which is intentionally done to develop your palate. The colors were beautiful too. My only note is that there are not many proteins on the menu making this a great place to take a vegetarian or vegan friend. I needed a burger a couple hours after. But this quaint little wine bar is a great place for intimate convo, and vibes.

Intimate vibe of a restaurant. They have seasonal items like the oysters pictured below. It was a little tightly packed and the portions were on the smaller side so you'd have to order about 5 items for 2 people. The beet gnocchi stood out to me due to the pistachios used and the sauce. However the steak tartare was slightly underwhelming along with the seasonal mushrooms. There weren't too many meat options on the menu as well

Had a wonderful rainy dinner here with friends. The seating is very intimate, highly recommend having a reservation in advance. I'm allergic to gluten, dairy, and eggs and I was able to eat most of the items off of their rotating menu. The wine selection was also great! My favorite dishes were the trumpet mushrooms with shiso leaf, hamachi crudo in coconut milk and octopus and romesco. The wagyu was a little overpriced for the portion size and preparation in my opinion (we didn't get a picture of that dish).The service was outstanding! No notes on that front.

Really cozy place with a fantastic rotating menu. Everything had just enough of a twist to be delicious and interesting, but not too niche. The octopus and butternut squash were particularly incredible!!! Cocktail menu and wine list were limited and on the pricier side. The bartender and waitress were both super friendly and not overbearing at all. Can't wait to go back!

Tiny spot but good food and drinks! They are especially proud of the natural wines on their menu and I tried a glass of a natural rose wine that I really liked. It's hard to walk by and have very few seats. As a result, it occasionally got very loud inside.Their menu changes about every month or so, and the advice we got was to order 2-3 dishes per person. We got their famous bread, beet gnocchi, octopus, and endive salad and was enough food for two of us.

LOVED this bar. My friend and I went on a Friday night and got 2 seats at the bar. Small, but nice lighting and chill vibes.Our bar tender was so fun (I think his name was John?) and made us fun drinks just based on flavors/ingredients we like. I also really like espresso martinis and theirs was one of the best I've had.

Really enjoyed my time here at this charming wine bar in November. They were open late on a Sunday, which was quite amazing, since we were having a great night with friends, and wanted to keep on going! We got a perfect corner table in the back - perfect for our 4 adults, and they even let us bring in our 6 month old baby!!Wines were great here - I believe I had a glass of the Chenin Blanc, and then Sauv blanc. Service was great, they were very hospitable. The vibe in here was very cute too, very intimate setting, but also enough people inside where it didn't feel like we were the only ones inside. Bathroom was very cute too. Wonderful if you are in the neighborhood, and want to come in from the cold for a warm night with friends!

Some restaurants just get it. They understand how to make a night feel special without trying too hard. WEST10WEST is one of those places.The space is small, in the best way possible. It feels intimate without being cramped, cool without being pretentious. The menu is tight, seasonal, and full of dishes that make you pause after the first bite because they're that good. Every plate feels intentional, layered, and thoughtful. You can tell there's a chef in the kitchen who actually cares about balance, texture, and flavor.And don't even get me started on the wine list--whoever curated it has an incredible palate. If you love natural wines that actually pair well with food, this is your spot.Service is dialed in, the kind where you feel taken care of without it ever being over the top. There's no rush, no fuss, just a team that knows how to create an atmosphere where you want to linger.If you're looking for one of the best small restaurants in NYC, something beyond the obvious hype spots, this is it. WEST10WEST feels like a secret you want to keep, but won't, because places this good deserve to be known.Already thinking about what I'll order next time.

Quite possibly the worst food i've had this entire year. The beet gnocchi is tasteless and has a strange wasabi-like topping that makes it worse. The mushrooms were overcooked and too salty. Save your money and your palate, get a drink if you must and get out.
