To call Avec a wine bar isn't to do it justice, but this wine bar and restaurant is the sister to heavy-hitter Blackbird, and it's conveniently located right next door. The cedar-, hickory- and oak-clad dining room is long and narrow; and features communal table and counter seating.
The rustic Mediterranean menu offers choices like chorizo-stuffed medjool dates and focaccia topped with taleggio cheese, fresh herbs and truffle oil. There's also a collection of artisan cheeses from Spain, Italy, France and Portugal, served with crusty house-baked bread. The Euro-focused wine menu offers off-the-beaten path choices.
