Swine

OLD: This sexy bi-level restaurant is located in the West Village. It offers a modern interpretation of a dive bar for New York sophisticates and laid-back denizens of the Big Apple. An eclectic American menu is served in a 2,000-square-foot space seating 65. For private functions, Downstairs is available seating 42 or holding 60 for reception. Buyouts are accepted.Inspired by laid-back dive bars, Swine combines a cozy neighborhood spot with upscale American food and a carefully selected small-production wine, beer, and spirits list. A rare bilevel space in the West Village, Swine offers an upstairs bar and dining area and a downstairs dining area and an open kitchen, complete with a communal table made of a repurposed ping-pong table. Swine—in look, feel, and energy—clearly tells its guests that one needn't be pretentious to be completely awesome.
