What's this?

These are confidence labels. They show how sure we are that what we publish still reflects the restaurant's current practice. They are not a judgement on the restaurant; the wine and cooking are scored separately, out of 100.

  • Beta means assessed and scored, but we are still confirming some details (such as the current wine list) and the restaurant has not yet had the chance to correct any factual inaccuracy, so it is published with that caveat.
  • No label means a fully confirmed entry.
  • In development means not yet a review. It appears so you can see where coverage is coming.

Restaurants often change their menus. The date beside the label says when we last reviewed.

We assessed Wreck Bistro in June 2026 and this review is based on the food menu and wine list at the time of the review. As menus and wine lists change, we name styles in order for the information to remain more useful as menus change. If things have slipped you can use the Vinealto Dining app including accessing an up to date reading using 'At the Table' from the wine list in front of you in the restaurant. How we assess

Wreck Bistro is a modern British and European bistro on Seel Street, the former Wreckfish, where a specific wine is printed against every dish on the menu. The wine programme earns its standing on that integration and on an honest, by-the-glass-led list closed by a complete small-measure fortified and dessert shelf, held back only by the absence of stated vintages and of a true off-dry white for the spicier plates. It will most reward the diner who comes to eat well and let the menu choose the glass, and who treats the printed pairings as the genuinely useful tool they are.

Salt House Bacaro

Liverpool, Merseyside

Italian / Venetian small plates (cicchetti)

Salt House Bacaro is a Venetian style small plates restaurant on Castle Street in Liverpool. Its short, mostly Italian list is fairly priced and pours most of its wines by the glass or carafe, though it gives little information beyond grape and region. It suits groups who want to graze, share and drink easily without spending much.
