Even though The Bauer can't quite figure out the vibe at Bin 38, he definitely likes what he sees from chef Glenn Christiansen: "I went to Bin 38 four times to try to figure out its multiple personalities. While it's fun, the operation can be as professional as a full-service restaurant one minute and as bubbleheaded as a trendy nightclub the next. What really sets Bin 38 apart from the dozen or so other wine bars that have opened recently is that the short menu is ambitious and interesting." Conclusion: Bin 38—"nearly perfect for its location"—gets a nice 2.5 stars. [Chron]
