Inventive, natural-wine-driven tapas with strong hospitality and some value-for-money complaints; best for adventurous diners who enjoy pairings.
Contracorrent Bar earns its A- grade through exceptional creative small plates and outstanding natural wine expertise that justify the premium positioning.
