Bin 71's sleek, sophisticated, intimate space is its main selling point.  Bin 71 has exposed brick walls, a marble horse-shoe bar and wide open french doors that make it a cozy gathering spot.  Owner Lawrence Bondulich has created this inviting, lively setting,  ideal for sampling one of their array of wines that go perfectly with the delicate blend of Italian-American Cuisine.  The menu, prepared by his father Al Bondulich of Bondini's Greenwich Village fame, features wine-friendly food, including Serrano Ham, North Cod Soup, and his delcious World Famous Meatballs.  Emphasizing seasonal ingredients and classic cooking, Bin 71 is the perfect place to enjoy a drink and catch-up with close friends.
