Churreria Manolo

Two words: heavy pour. You get far more than what you pay for here when ordering a glass of wine. This is also a cozy café with divine food and dessert, and of course – the truth is in the name – churros, which pair beautifully with a glass of red wine, if you were wondering.

Restaurant, Indian

This Indian eatery is known for incredibly delicious dishes. Also on offer is another outstanding incentive – a very generous pour of your favorite wine. Save the sipping for after dinner if you have a sensitive stomach, however, from experience.
