Invino Enoteca
Wine bar and bottle shop with 300+ Moldovan labels, cheese platters, and warm atmosphere on Bănulescu-Bodoni
Pick a bottle from 300+ Moldovan labels straight from the shelf, pay 100 MDL corkage and drink it at the table with an artisanal cheese platter
You step into an intimate space with floor-to-ceiling wine racks and warm-lit wooden tables. Invino doubles as a bottle shop (buy and go) and a wine bar — pick a bottle off the shelf, pay a 100 MDL corkage fee, and enjoy it at a table with local cheese platters, charcuterie, and crostini. The selection focuses on Moldovan producers (Purcari, Et Cetera, Asconi, Carlevana) but also includes Georgian, Italian, and French wines. The sommelier guides you patiently, and a jazzy playlist completes the vibe. Best in the evening, after work or as a pre-dinner stop. Expect friendly English-speaking staff who genuinely love wine and are happy to recommend pairings. Visitors often praise the cozy neighborhood feel and the fact that prices are reasonable for a city-center wine bar.

“Very nice people! ( Although I have to inform that if someone wants to open and drink a bottle of wine in the bar there's a fee of 100 lei! )”
